Today, we find ourselves at Protek, the mecca of classic race cars, where the air is thick with the smell of petrol and history. Protek is where legends like the original Skyline Hakoska race cars are brought back to life, roaring back onto the track with the same ferocity as their heyday. These are not just any street cars; they are the real deal, the kind that make your heart race and your palms sweat. The team at Protek is like a group of automotive wizards, weaving their magic on these vintage machines, keeping them running like clockwork.

From the real Hako GTR race cars to the custom titanium headers and carbon trunks, Protek's attention to detail is second to none. Every part, every bolt, is meticulously crafted and installed with precision, ensuring that these cars not only look stunning but perform flawlessly on the track. The workshop itself is a sight to behold, with shelves lined with new old stock parts, Japanese newspapers, and even a Shamwow or two. It's a place where time seems to stand still, where the past and present collide in a symphony of revving engines and clanking tools.

Protek's reputation precedes them, with car owners from all corners of Japan making the pilgrimage to have their beloved machines worked on by the Protek team. The expertise and passion that exudes from every corner of the workshop is palpable, a testament to the dedication and skill of the Protek crew. As we witness the ongoing projects, like the meticulous restoration of the Goss 240Z, it's clear that Protek is not just a workshop; it's a shrine to automotive excellence. So, as the engines roar and the sparks fly, one thing is certain - Protek is where automotive dreams become a reality, where the past is preserved and the future is forged on the racetrack.
