Since FIA GT3 cars dominate GT300 class at 2012, I was concerned about that. I thought Japanese DIY racing cars would be diminished over time.
JAF-GT cars like Prius & CR-Z were too expensive for privateers (you know development of those cars were aided by respective manufacturers).
Hiroto Kaneso (team director of apr) said his team is more like a semi-constructor instead of a mere privateer.

JAF-GT & MC cars were above GT3 cars at some time but I remember some teams like GAINER felt MC cars were too OP with 1100kg minimum weight. Maybe that's why MC cars were added +50kg weight.
