Need Info on the the JGTCC NSX racecars.

Howdy from Texas:

I'm trying to build the Castrol Mugen JGTCC NSX from Tamiya, but I'm having a difficult time finding on-line sources of information on the actual cars. Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance.

What kind of information are you looking for? It's JGTC, by the way.

Re: Need Info on the the JGTCC NSX racecars.

I would like some typical photo stuff of the cockpits, engine bay, and any other items that would help me detail the Tamiya kit.

Re: Need Info on the the JGTCC NSX racecars.

Looks like a mix of JGTC and Super GT years (bottom Epson nsx is definitely Super GT).

Sorry, no interior photos or anything like gionc but maybe they might help regardless. You may also want to look up other cars from the era like the DOME/Avex, Raybrig, PIAA, or Takata cars.

You may even want to try the Super GT website. They still have some archival stuff from the JGTC years. You'll have to search through them but maybe you'll get lucky. Click on the Round/Year you wanted, then pick either "Practice", "Qualify", or "Race Review". Some have pics, some don't.

Re: Need Info on the the JGTCC NSX racecars.

Yeah thanks. I took some views at the Super GT site, but never found something useful. When I was searching about those cars, never specify wich one of the models I want to look for... Thanks anyway for the help.

REGARDS
