IMPUL is probably most famous for its racing car, CALSONIC IMPUL GT-R. Founded on 1980 by Nissan’s legendary factory driver Kazuyoshi Hoshino, IMPUL exclusively produces aftermarket parts for Nissan cars, and runs a motorsports team “Hoshino Racing“ for SuperGT and Formula races in Japan.
Achievements of Hoshino is historic. Having himself as a driver, he won JGTC (ex SuperGT) series championship 3 years in a row from 1993 through 1995. Seen on the video, the 1:4 scale miniature racing car of R32 Nissan GT-R was a gift from Nissan’s President, praising Hoshino’s contribution to Nissan and Japanese motorsports.
With 30 years of great work, IMPUL has many enthusiastic fans. Ichiro from MLB Seattle Mariners is one. While owning Infiniti G35 coupe and Porsche carrera GT and many others, he keeps a Nissan Micra (JDM name: March) fully tuned by IMPUL in his garage.
