"But ultimately the chassis is called a DBA, why? Carsten Rae is John Nielsen's partner in RN Motorsports. Rae owns the Danish news paper Den Bla Avis, DBA. As Ian Smith of RN Motorsports points out, "It suited our future customers for the car to be called something other than YGK/IRM. We had carried out a fair bit of development work by this time and the
ACO allowed us to re-homologate with a new name. So the car became the DBA4 03S -P675".

See this story
Yes, so this car is properly a DBA. The car run by Zytek is properly a Zytek as this year they made enough changes and the ACO allowed them to rehomologate the car as a Zytek. The changes mainly consist of modifications made to the bodywork in an effort to reduce weight.
