This shop is filled with cars that we just don’t get to see in the states. Including a Mazda RX-3 powered by a Toyota 2JZ with a turbocharger. This odd little car is making 1,400hp. It’s only been on the track one time and has already posted a best elapsed time of 7.9-seconds.
There are some seriously fast (sub 6-second) pro mod cars that have held world records using 2JZ power. There is a 7-second 20B rotary powered Mazda and a 4-rotor turbocharged monster of a subcompact. In this shop (and in this country) mix and match is the norm rather than the exception.
It’s off to the track next. Sydney Dragway is among the most beautiful facilities on earth. It provides a clean, family atmosphere and lots of traction.
Immediately we notice what appears to be a drift car. It is a BMW M3 Widebody with a turbocharged RB26 (2.6-liter) Nissan engine. This thing is capable of producing mad horsepower but there is no bite to be found (not in a drift car).
There are tons of other unique cars at the track for Shop Wars. Have a look and see if the slippery BMW can compete.
