Montes will be in the SEMA, presenting a version of the SSX-R2 with a very unusual engine, fruit of MRP, as well as a version prepared by HKS of the Urban RS.
We’ve been quiet for a while, expanding our infrastructure project for the medium term “reasonable hypercars” plan.
But that doesn’t mean our tuners haven’t been doing what they do best. Which in turn means our driver doing driving things. Think LMP is the fastest thing around Nordschleife? Think electric is the new king of the mountain?
Think again. We have the footage to prove otherwise.

On Display at SEMA, we have two Modified Holts H4s. Both of these have been outfitted with a full scale Gamma Set tune.
The First is with a Standard Gamma Set. This Features the regular Twin Turbo 6L V12 making over 1000hp to all four wheels. It features a Custom made Time Attack body kit made in partnership with EmptyGrid Body Kits.
This Tuning kit pushes the H4 beyond what is considered normal for these cars.
The Second kit is an Uprated Gamma Set, which has become known as the NEON. The NEON features a slightly different Aero Kit and some removal of Chrome and Plastic accents, instead adding the bright green colour to more of the car.
The NEON features a more powerful version of the Standard Gamma Set’s Cairo V12, making over 1200hp. It’s revised aero kit allows for more downforce as well, creating a more grippy car overall.
The NEON kit is an extra option ontop of the Regular set for an added price.

We present the 2012 Atlas Stealth 4S:
Some guys at Atlas wanted us to make a more “exclusive” and more “pushing” version of their entry level of their known Lineup called “Stealth”, the Atlas Stealth S.
We had decided that instead of making a “Hardcore Turbocharged Hillclimb monster” we made a fun, Everyday use and very easy to drive Road car. Which is not very expensive, So everyone can enjoy a decently tuned car.
That’s how the “Stealth 4S” was born as a Un-official trim for the Stealth lineup which you can buy.
On the Aesthetic side, We have a Gosso-Sport bodykit, Giving it a more consistent design ( Which is very notable on the rear end). an Active wing (Which is hold open here so everyone can see it) carbon fibre painted stripe which connects the front with the rear. “4S” badging on the rear end and sides of the car.
this car is sitting on 19’ TRU RS Dual 5 Spoke Forged rims.
Extra features:
4S: Features a Bored and stroked 3.2L 440HP Flat-Plane Aluminum V8 (The normal Stealth S featured a 390HP 3.0L V8), Sport-Street Suspension Setup, Forged 19’ TRU Dual 5 spoke rims, Wasco 4 piston brakes, Recaro 4 harness Bucket seats, Glass sunroof, Custom hand-made Race Exhaust, Gosso-Sport body kit, Active Aerodinamics.
Despite being a Rear-Mid engine Rear-Wheel drive Supercar, The 4S is surprisingly easy to drive. It is so easy to drive that you can drive it with only one finger.
Again, The purpose of this car is to make an enjoyable, easy and fast car to drive, which doesn’t require a lot of skill to push it to it’s limits.
The Stealth 4S is open for test drives if anyone interested.
Special thanks to @MBT808 for the base car!

AKUITY wheels, the Japanese wheel brand founded 1978, is celebrating their 40th anniversary with a line of 5 new lightweight rotary forged monoblock alloy wheels. We present to you the 5PiRiT line.
To show the diversity of our latest 5PiRiT lineup, we have 4 unique cars demonstrating all the applications that the wheels can thrive.
Closely related to the 5R0P racing wheel is the 5D0P performance wheel, a flower-spoke wheel filled with style and poise. It sits seamlessly on Lorenzo’s bagged 2017 Nohda Assent Revo. With a 2.3L turbocharged inline-4 taken from the Assent GTX and a NDHR front bumper, this MPV turns heads everywhere and has some kick to boot.
A retro design with a modern twist, the 5C0P is light yet transcends generations and looks good on almost anything you’ll put it on. Munro’s 1996 Erin Berlose is a true sheep in wolf’s clothing, and the 5C0P helps to hint at the true nature of this beast. It’s a rare sedan being a US-spec X-AllDrive model, but Munro still decided to have his way with the car. The engine was already very impressive for the times, producing upwards of 100 hp/l from its 3.8L V8. However, with new UKT independent throttle bodies, forged pistons and rods, and a complete N/A tuning transformation, this Berlose makes over 500 HP to the wheels.
The 5C2P wheel is our second retro design, with a very simple yet elegant design with a center cap. For Leo’s 1994 Baltazar Quark 1.7 GT, it’s clear that the contrast of the simple wheels and the eccentric Quark is one that manages to work out well. His setup is static and low, and under the hood lies an aftermarket BorkWarmer turbo kit and Magsonic exhaust. Polarized headlights, an early 00’s J-Tech body kit, and a unique wrap help distinguish this Quark from any other typical Baltazar.
The final wheel design shows the future of AKUITY’s lineups and encapsulates all of the designs that we have been known for. The 5RXR is a sharp, dynamic twist wheel which is only available in larger diameters but is still extremely lightweight. Here, it’s on a stock 2013 LMC Megalodon convertible.
Please consult your local AKUITY dealer for more information.
Big thanks to @Dorifto_Dorito, @DeusExMackia, @Leonardo9613, and @Chickenbiscuit for providing me with their cars to ruin modify.

Reminds me of the Mugen Honda Fit
KinJin Tuning
We have 4 cars on display, a Keika Katana (3rd generation), a 2nd generation TSR Kansai drag car, a TSR Comet Turbo 2 and a TSR Mont Royale Turbo R. Today, we’re showcasing the Keika Katana and the TSR Mont Royale Turbo R restomod. We hope you enjoy the cars showcased.
Keika Katana 3 2400
We have a range of products for the Keika available. The car showcased here is the Keika Katana with the mechanical package 3 and equipped with all the KinJin accessories.
Full LED headlight conversion (can be bought for $500)
17-inch 8-spoke magnesium rims (can be bought for $5000)
KinJin Downforce body-kit (can be bought for $2000 with the option of exposed carbon fibre or body coloured)
KinJin Angled Wing (can be bought for $1000)
Carbon-fibre mirrors (can be bought for $500)
KinJin Freeflow Exhaust (can be bought for $3000)
The exhaust makes your Keika louder, but it still street-legal thanks to a high-flow three-way catalytic converter that still passes emission test in most states designed by our R&D team.
KinJin ECU unit (for NA) (can be bought for $500)
With flex-fuel technology integrated in the ECU, the car can run on normal 91 RON pump gas to 100 RON race fuel to E85 Ethanol.
KinJIn Freeflow ITB (can be bought for $1000)
Our R&D team designed the ITBs to give as much throttle response as possible. Also derived from motorsports.
KinJin Freeflow Header (can be bought for $2000)
It is not compatible with the Twin-Turbo conversion package, but it still gives a lot of power to the Keika. It is dervied from motorsport with our R&D team to create as much airflow as possible.
KinJin Twin-Turbo conversion package (can be bought for $6000)
The Twin-Turbo conversion package comes with a new ECU specifically tuned for the Turbo set-up. The ECU is available with flexfuel technology as standard.
TSR Mont Royale Turbo R (Restomodded)
This is a TSR Mont Royale. But not just any Mont Royale, a special one-off custom-made by KinJin. The car was first found in an abandoned barn in Las Vegas in 2015. It was full of dirt and rust. It was also wrecked. The car was brought to a TSR restoration centre in California where the body panels were all taken off. The only thing left was the chassis. The rust was repaired and was given a coat of anti-corrosion. Then, the chassis was sent to Tokyo, Japan where it arrived in the KinJin Tuning workshop. They sourced a new engine from another TSR Mont Royale Turbo R in Canada. The engine was overhauled and was fitted with a new twin-turbo kit. The R&D was used for a year. By the time it finished, the turbo kit was installed and the result was 616HP from this beast. The engine was then installed into the car with no problem. The engine starts up with no problem. Then, new panels are sourced from TSR’s spare parts inventory. They created a new body-kit from the panels. They were fitted onto the car. The fender flares are also custom made to replace the old ones. New wheels from the TSR Comet was fitted into the car. The car runs and drive. So they took a test-drive. Suddenly, the engine exploded and the car was on fire. It was a disappointment for the team, but they didn’t give up. Another engine was found from another Turbo R again. They slapped on the turbo kit and strengthened the engine, then put it in the car again. The car was repaired from the fire damage. Almost 10 days before SEMA 2018, they start wrapping the car and now, here it is!
Thank you @BoostandEthanol for the car!
The next 2 cars will be showcased tomorrow. Thank you!

Track Regulated Tuning
We’re planning to haul several cars to Vegas - starting off with a pet project of the North American branch’s headquarters. They’ve been spending quite some time on this beast to serve as a flagship for our Fuji tuning parts, and every bit of it except the body is bespoke. More about this car will be revealed in the further days of the show, but we can hint that it no longer has the same engine as the original.
