I'm very interested in what power modifications have been done to the cars.
Intake
Exhaust
Header/Exhaust Manifold
ECU

What has been done to lighten the car:
Pulley
Wheels
Seats, etc

Anything to make it faster (Not interested in the twisty stuff but I know many here probably would be).

Thanks for any help.

Both have K20 test versions, correct, but the ones used in Super Taikyu series are stock motors to comply with ST5 class rules

Its crazy. I think the stock GK5's really aren't that good looking. Then I get my eyes on a modified one and its a totally different world. Those GK5's are awesome!

I'm on the same boat as you dude, the GK5's look horrible stock but now seeing this with a longer spoiler and if it's lowered, it'll look nice. That extra power in it doesn't hurt either

Wow. The GK takes to aftermarket really well. The Blitz one looks really nice and the Yellow one above is hot. Heck, they all look really cool.

One day I will have my very own GK 6 Speed. One day.

I have to say, since the early 2000s Honda styling has hit the crapper. But Honda's always come to life when modified and tinkered around with. They're totally different cars.
