It was announced on October 16, 2012 that the Super GT championship and the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters will unify technical regulations for the 2014 season.[27] The previous GT500 engines of 3.4L V8 in capacity were replaced with 2.0L Turbocharged Inline-four engines.[28] With the new rule changes, all 3 manufacturers ran the 2014 season with new cars, the Honda HSV-010 GT and the Lexus SC430 being replaced by the new mid-engined Honda NSX-GT and the Lexus RC F respectively while Nissan continued to use the GT-R for 2014, but with a new car built for the new regulations. All 3 cars were unveiled at the 2013 42nd International Pokka Sapporo 1000km.[29][30]
