The chassis of Inter Proto Series was completed.
IPS is Japanese domestic one-make category.
IPS chassis has economical CFRP monocoque.
Therefore, it is possible to divert this monocoque to some other purpose as mother chassis of GT300.

That's a nice little project. Looks really good completed. I guess this could be it's own car as well as serving a purpose for the future chassis of GT300's?

The new diffuser section of the Lexus SC430's are huge. Much different from the GTR's as they still use the full width of the car but have the 'open fender' on the rear tire.

Not sure, but it looks like the non-FIA GT300's are about a second or two slower than the FIA cars.
