About the Calsonic Impul Z The JGTC goes international in 2004. In addition to the regular Sepang race which was held in Malaysia in June, two special All-star Races will also be held in China and the US in 2004. Leading the charge overseas is one of Japan most recognized touring car teams, Team Impul, having had their distinctive blue design dominate the Japanese touring car scene for more than a decade. Replacing the Skyline GT-R with the Nissan Z in 2004, the 2004 Impul machine features a powerful 3-litre V6 twin-turbo engine, improved chassis design, a lower centre of gravity, wider tread, more solid body and better front/rear weight distribution. With French driver B. Treluyer and Y. Ide at the helm, expectations are high for the Impul Z in the later half of the 2004 season.
