It’s time for a JDM showdown!

We’ve got our hands on a Honda S2000, and it’s going up against a tuned MX-5 Mk3 and a tuned GT86! The question is, which will come out on top over the quarter mile? Let’s take a closer look at the stats.

Starting with the MX-5, this would normally produce 162hp and 176Nm of torque from its 2-litre 4-cylinder engine. However, this one has had a supercharger fitted, and it now puts down 260hp and 280Nm! This power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual, and the car weighs in at 1,132kg. With all the mods included, this car is valued at around £13,000.

Next up we have the GT86. It’s also powered by a 2-litre 4-cylinder that produces 200hp and 205Nm. However, just like the MX-5, it’s had a supercharger fitted, and it now puts down 280hp and 300Nm. This power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual, and it’s the heaviest car here, tipping the scales at 1,270kg. It’s also the most expensive car here, with a value of £15,000.

Lastly, we have the S2000. It’s had no mods fitted to it, so its 2-litre 4-cylinder still produces 240hp and 207Nm. This power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual, and it weighs in at 1,,260kg. As it is now, the car is valued at £12,000.

So the GT86 has the most power, but does it have what it takes to snatch the win? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!
