TSR TO FIX THE STYLING OF THE FALLWING


TSR found that their fans aren’t happy with how the new 2019 Fallwing looks, especially at the front. Production will be postponed until early 2019. Prices will also change. Engine is changed. Chassis is still going to be the same. Trim levels are still going to be the same with an added trim.

The history of the TSR Ultra


1966
1966, the Lamborghini Miura is born, Keika has their Keika I and TSR needs a mid-engine supercar to compete with. So, they design the 1966 TSR Ultra. Made from a space-frame chassis and a fibreglass body, the TSR Ultra is very light.

-MY67 TSR Ultra GTS (JDM Model)

Soon after that, there is the 1966 Great Archanian Trek. TSR decides to compete. They thought they could use the 1965 Fallwing. But it’s too long and might get stuck on big rocks. So, TSR decided to use the Ultra. But not just any Ultra. They have to borrow a chassis of another truck and retrofitted the Ultra body onto it. The result, a 4x4 off-road monster with the same 3.2 litre all-aluminium V8 as the base model Ultra. Apparently by popular demand, TSR decided that they sell the Rally Safari Edition. Only 20 examples were only made.

1995
At 1995, when they were tuning Honda NSXs and TSR Itakaras and won Le Mans, TSR and NR5 decided that they want to have their own NSX. So, they built one from the ground-up. Molding the NSX body by fibre-glass first and modify the looks, panels made of carbon fibre and NR5’s own bespoke chassis, are made of corrosion-resistant steel. Then, they design their own engine instead of using the NSX’s engine. It was an all-aluminium V8 with the code name B8-40A (for the Touring) and B8-40B (for the NR5) and just like that, the car is done. The NR5 N1 version is just a more track-focused version of the NR5 with stripped-down interior and higher downforce. They stopped production at the year 2000 with 1030 units made since 1995.

New Hope
Since the death of the Ultra at 2000, there were rumors that TSR is going to make a hypercar. That hypercar might be the Ultra. So far, only a picture is taken of that car. There are only little information about this car. But its mission is to beat the world record of the highest top speed of any street-legal production car.

2019 TSR Kansai Official Teaser


What do you think?

The history of the TSR Kansai


1955 (1st generation)
TSR needed a GT car. They created the Kansai. It sold really well and enable them to get big profit with big mark-ups. At 1956, they started importing the Kansai to the US to see if it sells well in the US. With import taxes and other stuff, the car became expensive although still sellable. The car was ahead of it’s time using all wishbone suspension (front and rear) and a 4.8 litre DOHC (Dual Overhead Cam) V8. At 1957, TSR makes the SL Fallwing trim which is exclusively for the US.

1960 (2nd generation)
The 2nd generation is also very popular. Although the front is weird, the rear makes up for it. It now utilizes a DOHC I6 instead of a V8. As expected, it sold well in the US and other countries.


-Luxor trim shown circa 1961

Original advertisement is here!


2000 (3rd generation)
TSR haven’t made the Kansai for 40 years since the first time the 2nd generation was launched. This one, the purist says is the worst and weirdest one. Normally, the older generations has RWD only. Well, this generation is FWD available with AWD for the 1st time. The base trim is an inline-4 with a V6 available in higher trim levels. The car’s design is very uninspiring. Some say the worst looking from all Kansai’s. Maybe because the design team only concentrated at the front rather than the back. Although quite competitive, this generation don’t sell well. At least for the first time, it came with an NR5 trim at 2002. Unfortunately, this generation is not a true GT car…


-RS trim shown circa 2001


2010 (4th generation)
TSR needs something to rival the Nissan GTR. It’s very fast and advanced. Well, they came out with the 4th generation Kansai. This time, no inline-4 and AWD comes as standard for the first time. Sales were improving. In 2017, the Enthusiast Edition was introduced featuring a Manual. Only for the NR5, it made sales increased by 5% only. Less than 200 Enthusiast Edition Kansai’s were made.


-NR5 Carbon trim shown


20XX (5th generation)
The year is unknown but the 5th generation is coming. Featuring a more aggresive design language and a different and more advanced V6. So far, only teasers were shown. As always, AWD as standard.


If you want to see the 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation Kansai, please contact (PM) us for a test drive. Unfortunately, the 4th generation is unavailable.

At 1964…


At 1964, one of the sportiest cars in the 60s were born. With the Kansai having a facelift for the 1964 model year, TSR CEO, Tomoyaki Takashiro build a sportier version of their 2nd generation Kansai, the GTS. It has no compromises except for the luxurious interior. Today, the GTS is the most sought after Kansai in the history. It is able to do 0.97g’s on the skidpad making it one of the sportiest cars in the 60s. For people, it’s worth millions. For TSR, it’s priceless since all their passion and soul injected to this beautiful car.

A real beauty, no question about it!
I’m a sucker for 60s sports cars so a bit of a shame that there’s not much room in my company lore for those. :smiley:

In the 70s…


Early 70s
In the early 70s, Kansai’s are selling relatively well although desirability is lower than in the 60s. At that time, TSR wanted to have more diversity to their line-up. They created the Kansai Roadster. It’s just basically the convertible version of the Kansai’s. Still, no one buys those… But, the luxor trim is still suprisingly desirable even in the roadster form.


-TSR Kansai GTS Roadster circa 1970


Mid 70s
At 1975, TSR introduced the Kansai GTS Phase 2 to the world. At the same time as the Porsche 911 Turbo, the Kansai GTS Phase 2 also has a turbo. The changes for the phase 2 are, obviously a turbo, lowered suspension, a wing, wider front tires, slightly wider front fenders, new front and rear bumper, a luxury 8 track radio, advanced 70s safety, 2 pistons front brake calipers and new gas mono-tube dampers which adds up to a heavier but more advanced, faster, sportier and a more reliable (what a surprise!) Kansai. The Roadster variant was also available at that time. The GTS Kansai Phase 2 was TSR’s way to celebrate their 15th anniversary since their 1st model year of the 2nd generation Kansai, 1960 and their 20th anniversary since the 1st generation Kansai.


-TSR Kansai GTS Phase 2 circa 1975


Early 80s
1980 was the last model year for the 2nd generation Kansai as these were not selling well in the 70s. Most of those were caused by the 70s fuel crisis and little desirability. So, the the last thing TSR needed to do was to release a limited edition Kansai dubbed the ‘limited’. Buyers are free to choose which colours they want with an option of a different colour on their hood which also affects the colour of the rear bumper partially, front bumper, fuel cap, and more. It basically has some of the phase 2 GTS parts shared except the engine. The engine was still the same one from the facelifted Luxor and GTS, the LE6-32BA.


-TSR Kansai Limited

The last car to roll out of the production line was in 25 September 1980. As for the sports car range, the Ultra will fill that missing gap left from the Kansai. The Kansai will have its 3rd generation in the early 2000s. Until then, the Kansai is dead…

Curious about the gen 1 Kazuma, which year did the production start?

Production starts at 2004. Any other questions? I would be happy to answer them.

Not really, was looking for a similar car for a review but it has to be a 1999 model…

Once a partnership with Keika…


TSR co-founder, Ryo Eishi, was a best friend of Daniel Chase. Well, they had a partnership. The purpose is for cost-cutting and to increase reliability. After that, they created another Ultra. Not just any Ultra, the GTX. The car was eqquiped with revised suspension, a more powerful engine, a double-layered wing, a new body-kit and Watanabe RS rims. This version is only available for the US as the Ultra will leave the US market in January 1974. Even then, this car is still kinda well-known.



A perfect example of a 1973 TSR Ultra GTX.

#TURBO4LIFE!


1979
Turbos, turbos, turbos in the fuel crisis. TSR still tries to sell their turbocharged cars. Again, TSR asked Keika for help in terms of price and reliability. And, this is the result, the TSR Kansai GTR.


The 1979 TSR Kansai GTR circa 1979

Although there is a slight increase on power over the GTS Phase 2, there are way more mechanical changes. For example, the carburetor was changed to a mechanical fuel injection, it now uses a 91 RON regular unleaded fuel, a new body kit, a Porsche 911 Turbo (964) inspired rims made of magnesium, sports interior, 2 seats, improved fuel economy and improved reliability. Suspension tuning was also made. With insane amout of camber on the front and very stiff sway-bars at the back, this puppy can do 1.07g on a 20m radius skidpad and 1.09g on a 200m radius skidpad. The GTS Phase 2 rides very harsh, mostly due to the insanely stiff suspension, TSR soften the GTR’s rear suspension which also helps a lot with comfort. People named this the Japanese muscle car, but loves cornering. Although it is not as reliable as the Ultra, the Kansai GTR is still considered a very reliable early turbo cars at its time. Only 300 were ever made…
