Nissan Fairlady Z RZ34 (400Z) by Liberty Walk

Japanese company Liberty Walk has unveiled its latest project, the Fairlady Z RZ34 (400Z). It is a specially designed body kit for the NISSAN 400Z that gives the car a more aggressive look.

The Fairlady Z RZ34 body kit includes a new set of front bumpers, front diffuser, rear diffuser, rear wing, duct bonnet hood and wide fenders. There are also AlphaRex LED headlights, new suspension, new light signatures, 18-inch wheels and an aftermarket exhaust system with variable valves.

The interior of the car has been changed, which means that there is factory equipment that includes the original 8-inch infotainment screen, 12.3-inch driver display and an eight-speaker Bose sound system, heated seats, parking sensors and a Wi-Fi hotspot for connecting mobile phones.

Under the bonnet is a 3.0 L VR30DDTT twin-turbo V6 engine with 400 hp (298 kW) and 350 lb-ft (475 Nm) of torque, mated to a 6-speed manual transmission that sends power to the rear wheels.

The HUMVEE 4-CT is a new combat vehicle

The American company AM General has presented the HUMVEE 4-CT. It is a concept based on the HMMWV (High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle) military vehicle that brings greater safety, ergonomics and adaptation to modern threats on the battlefield.

The vehicle is equipped with the Kongsberg Protector SR4 combat module and the Axon Dedrone OnTheMove anti-drone system, which increases the chances of survival in the event of an attack, as drones are gaining an increasing role in combat. Some body changes have also been made, such as a new hood, front bumper and headlights.

The HUMVEE 4-CT has received the MARS (MBrace and RollTek System), a special seat that minimizes the risk of injury in the event of a mine explosion or vehicle rollover. MARS works in such a way that at the moment of an attack, it tightens the seat belts and activates the side airbags.

It is powered by a 6.5-liter turbocharged V8 diesel engine with 190 hp and 515 Nm of torque at 1,700 rpm, mated to a four-speed automatic transmission and a two-speed transfer case (high: 1:1, low: 2.72:1). The drivetrain includes front and rear hypoid differentials with a 3.08:1 ratio, ensuring effective power distribution and optimized traction on rough terrain.

The company has not announced whether this vehicle is a completely new model or an improved version of the HMMWV. Either way, it is certain that it will soon enter service because the demand for combat equipment around the world is very high.

G3M Bi-Turbo is the BMW M3 Touring but with more power

In 2022, BMW presented the M3 Touring, which attracted a lot of attention from customers, so a year later the Bavarian company had to increase production. This model was the basis for a new project from Bavarian tuner G-Power called the G3M Bi-Turbo.

The G3M Bi-Turbo looks more aggressive than the M3 Touring thanks to a carbon package that includes a new hood with a large central air vent for cooling the engine compartment, a new splitter, side mirror housings, a rear diffuser, and new Hurricane RR wheels with an orange finish, which matches the orange exterior details.

The interior has also been refreshed with new M carbon bucket seats upholstered in bright orange leather that also covers the dashboard and door panels.

Under the bonnet is an upgraded 3.0-litre twin-turbo 6-cylinder engine with 800 hp and 900 Nm of torque, which is a significant increase in power compared to the Competition version with 510 hp and 660 Nm of torque. The increase in power is achieved by installing new turbochargers, an exhaust system with 200-cell high-flow catalytic converters, and remapping the ECU unit. Top speed has also been increased from 280 km/h to 300 km/h.

G-Power did not say how much the upgrade package costs.
