I have had these pictures for many years. Speedconcepts in Wisconsin bought a couple of ex-JGTC GT500 R34 race cars. A couple of RB26, and a VR30 powered car. While they were preparing the cars to do historic racing, they sent me a few pictures.  Some really interesting stuff. 

Check out how low the engine sits in the chassis. The deck is just above the frame/unibody rail. 

Look a stock CAS!

Engine and transmission. Note the shape of the collector. I think this was an Xtrac or Hewland transmission.

Where is the engine? 



Ah, X parts. The race cars have all these "X" parts. A part number, but you really can't buy them
