Top Secret’s cars are gilded always and consistently on the good side of ridiculous. They specialize in producing street cars that take to the tunnels and bridges around Japan at triple digit speeds that begin with a 2, and have a history of doing zany things with Supras. A few years ago they shoehorned in a Skyline GTR engine. This year, they installed the only production V-12 made in Nippon, the "280" horsepower 5.0-liter 1GZ-FE installed in the Toyota Century, an understated, retro-cool Japan-only sedan sold to those who are driven rather than drive. At $97K a pop, Toyota doesn't sell many Centuries.

Top Secret bolted HKS 2540 turbos to each bank of six cylinders; the resulting antics produce a claimed 800 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque. Top Secret installed its own Super Dampers, body kit, and exhaust system, as well as giant Volk wheels and eight-piston calipers.

very impressive. It's good to see that some people would actually do something that's over the top.

I made a thread about this awhile ago...awesome car indeed. Im sure it makes 1000hp with the turbos at max psi. I'm sure you can lower the psis to get a more drivable car.

^ Sorry Johnny, seems like Super Street Mag is slow but the car was shown in public sometime in January. It was articled about the debut in Options Magazine in February. Sweet car, sweet kit though.

I have a current Option Magazine that gives off all of the specs of the car, and from reading about it, it's a monster. It won the "Best of Show" award in Tokyo Auto Salon. :D

And it's not a 1GZ-FE, it's a 1GZ-GE
