Today we had this Plasma Orange A90 Supra through the workshop for a GTS 5 Black install.

Powered by the BMW B58, this one picked up an extra 31kW and 93Nm at the hubs, all on a completely stock setup. No supporting mods, just straight plug in performance done properly.

Real gains across the entire rev range, not just a headline number up top, and fully reversible if needed.

We keep the largest range of RaceChip stock in Australia, so if you are running a modern platform or dealing with a locked ECU and still want more out of it, get in touch.

The Ford Ranger Raptor is already one of the punchiest utes on the market.

Add a RaceChip GTS 5 and you unlock an extra 33kW and 80Nm, delivering strong gains right through the rev range, not just up top.

It’s a simple plug in install, no cutting or coding, and fully reversible if you ever want to return it to stock.

The best part?
We have these units in-stock and available to order here:

We came into this year’s Bathurst 6 Hour determined to push harder than ever and see what our MK8 Golf R was truly capable of.

Qualified 4th in class.
2:28.0 lap around Mount Panorama. The fastest ever by a VW Golf production car.

Car was on pace.
Drivers were outstanding. Cem and Iain delivered all weekend. Fast, consistent, and completely composed when it mattered.

Strategy was strong.

We were tracking toward a class podium until a tyre failure halfway through the race set us back. Still recoverable.

Then another tyre failure under the safety car. That one hurt. It completely derailed our strategy.

With 5 minutes to go, the car suddenly died. Sitting there thinking it was over… and then somehow, it came back to life.

We crossed the line 14th overall.

Post race review handed us and a number of other teams a 15 lap penalty, dropping us back to 44th.

It stings.

But we finished a six hour endurance race in our MK8 Golf R. We are pretty confident we are the first team in the world to do it.

We appreciate the support from our friends, families, partners, and everyone following along.

Having shared the pit garage all weekend, our thoughts go out to Richard Barram, James, Paul and the rest of the AC Store / Fused Air team.

Wishing Richard all the best with surgery and recovery ahead.
