This Civic Coupe is a full-on, authentically American-style sport compact, from end to end. You may first be struck by the bodywork, but it was chosen as a demo car not because it was slow. NOS, one of the shop’s specialties, is installed, along with an original surge-tank modification, JE pistons and connecting rods, and Type R cams. The areas that could be tuned have all been properly addressed, balancing appearance with engine performance. Owner Katsuyama-san competes in drag races held in the United States several times a year and brings the know-how back to the shop. If you want not just the look but a car whose substance is authentically American, be sure to check it out!

Purge kit!
This is called a purge kit. It releases NOS gas that has become too warm. The gas shoots out with tremendous force, so it can also be used to intimidate!
