Among the number of existing tuner and restomod companies, another one, Eccentrica Cars, was recently founded. The main goal of the company is the restoration and modification of exotic cars, especially Lamborghini Diablo cars.
The company’s first project is based on the Lamborghini Diablo, a car that arrived on the market at the end of the last century. It was produced until 2001, and 2,884 units left the production line.
The restoration included the installation of lighter carbon components in place of the original panels. New lights, tires, brakes, suspension elements and a newly developed exhaust system were installed, and the tubular steel chassis was significantly strengthened. All this in order to adapt the car to the new era. Colombini revealed that in the Diablo restomod project they relied on the best components offered by Pirelli, Brembo, Capristo, Marantz and Alcantara.
When it comes to the powertrain, the standard Lamborghini Diablo is powered by a 5.7 L V12 engine with 485 hp (362 kW) and 428 lb-ft (580 Nm) of torque. The company did not reveal whether the engine was reworked, but it said that power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed instead of a 5-speed manual gearbox.
Whether we will see better restomod cars in the future, because obviously there are still those who yearn for older models of super cars, remains to be seen.
