D Car — July 2004

A masterclass in using monitors: this Eclipse Spider sits low on hydraulics, and when its gullwing doors open, almost nothing remains above the floor line—an attention-grabbing sight. The wide-ranging Borzoi Wing System also covers the Eclipse. Dangan Racing fenders and a nose bra complete the dress-up while preserving the all-black, understated look. The interior is just as carefully built: the owner made the monitor mount inside the steering wheel. To fit an 8-inch monitor in the center of the dash, the air-conditioning controls had to be relocated.

A symbol of intense passion, finished in red. This DC2 was built around one clear theme: “Everything has to be red!” The exterior, seats, dashboard, and engine bay are all crimson; even the neon and taillights are red. Accord CL headlights were swapped in, and a ViS Racing Integra body kit was modified to fit. The gullwing doors close automatically when lowered. It happened by chance—but what a great result!

Shuji Nagura built the car around a mature, stylish look. “I wanted it to feel grown-up and cool,” says the owner…

…Shuji Nagura.

don’t look at it!

While driving,

…don’t do it!

The factory monitor originally in the center of the dashboard has been neatly installed in the center of the steering wheel, in the airbag section.

A monitor is built into the trunk for a show-car look. The hydraulic unit is visible in the center.

Team Dynamics wheels with large 215/35-19 tires fit the body naturally.

The subwoofer is installed so it seems to float out from the side. The owner designed this shaping as well.

Owner Minako has long legs and a dynamic driving style!

The red interior is carried consistently through the gauge panel, dashboard, trim, and even the roll cage—nothing was left half-finished.

SPECIFICATIONS — Exterior: ViS Racing front aero; BOMEX side steps and rear aero; VS Racing wing; Dangan Racing bonnet; CL face swap. Suspension: air suspension. Wheels: TSW 18-inch. Interior: MOMO steering wheel; roll cage. Engine: muffler by Buddy Club, etc.

The car runs 18-inch TSW wheels painted matte black, a deliberate touch of contrast.

The side steps and powerful, low-slung rear bumper are by BOMEX. The wide wing is by ViS Racing.

Honda Integra [DC2]

An Integra front bumper and CL headlights work together beautifully to create a striking face.

Beautiful girls and gullwings
