It needs Advans and Wakabas!

Maybe a giant plaster for the damage too?

Pity you can't use ridiculously low-offset wheels or spacers. :dapprove:

 

[Naith]

I could do a whole new Hakosuka Appreciation Thread TBH...

R33 LM GT-R in the background BTW.

 

[Christopher]

Whoa! ^^^^^ - that looks amazing. Love the pillar-less look with the windows down. :approve:

Dread to think what a minter like that would cost to buy & maintain properly.

D.

 

[JamieITR]

Mmm, old school ICE setup inside that Hakosuka!

They can cost anywhere from £8kish for low end example up to £33k for one like the one posted. Concours one's can go for up £60k! Also depends on the engine they have in them and any other mods.

 

[Winston]

Kenny stack... Awesome lol

 

[Timmay]

they look immense!

 

[Christopher]

I'd have one in my lottery garage, without a shadow of a doubt.

Maybe two actually. One standard and one running LM arches and RB26 power... still RWD though, obviously!

:star: - this thread just gets better!

Imagine trying to convince some yoofs of today of the virtues in that ^^^^.

"Son, these were all the rage when your mum was being serviced by two lads for a pack of Embassy and half a bag of chips..."

I've never quite understood the fact that a lot of Jap kit has the Western alphabet on it. Yet so few of them speak a word of English?

D.

 

[Hazza]

I WANT AN RX-7 FC!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111

 

[Christopher]

PMSL @ Darren!!

Yeah, it's bizarre, that. Although it's just Japanese culture, they do it on everything, not just cars. If you watch any Japanese-narrated shows on YouTube (Best Motoring etc) you'll hear them say the odd English word.... "Skyrine R" or "DeeCee 2 Ah" etc LOL

I'm going next year and one of my goals is to photograph some of the best "Japlish" i can find.

Some of the best i've seen are...

On the back of a drag Silvia - 0-400 Fighter: and Streetcamp we go!

Around the rim of an Advan wheel - Harvest the victory! For the chance!

ROFL!!! WTF?!

And don't lie about your 'goals' of the Japan trip. I bet there's a pre-booked container all padded with cotton-wool - just waiting to accomodate a DC5.

Or something just as good!

D.

 

[JamieITR]

 

[Christopher]

LOL D...

Shhhh!

Nearer the time, i'm getting a thread going over on ITR-DC5 and another on EK9.org.

I'll buy a couple of million Yen's worth of JDM tat and then flog it on a double mark-up.

I love the Bride slogan on my seat.

''Spirit of position''

Amen tiny Jap man.

 

[ClioTom182]

WOW!!! Is that a wide bodied 200sx?

 

[Englebert]

Yeah, looks mental!

 

[Christopher]

Sure is... Wide-Body S15 Silvia

There's one on PistonHeads at the mo... White one for £14k

 

[Craig]

WOW!!! Is that a wide bodied 200sx?

thats mint

 

[Iridium]

I've never seen a Spoon hardtop'd S2000 like that before - I'd love to see a few more angles of it, looks like it could be rather sweet I like the wide bodied 200sx as well - I reckon it needs a shed load of power to pull of the look, and thankfully, I'm certain it will have hehe. Those really old Skylines are awesome cool, they look like Mk2 Escorts hehe!

And Chris on a Jap trip? It'll be like heaven for him...

Dan

 

[Christopher]

Aye, next summer mate!

That episode of Top Gear made me ridiculously excited.. LOL

Did you see it?

Here's more pictures of the Spoon hardtop'd AP1... Uber cool.

 

[Turkish]

Rear bumper on the yellow/orange one = FAIL

as for the hardtop makes the back end look a bit like a Z4 coupe.

 

[Christopher]

Being a genuine Spoon bumper makes it cool... fact!

 

[Turkish]

Spoon or not I wouldn't touch it with yours

 

[J0sh]

Shamelessly stolen from Supra forums front page, but I dont care. This is utter filth.

Moist in my loins.

 

[Englebert]

Liking the Takata green wheels on the S2k.

 

[Christopher]

It's about time we had some EK action in here...

No reason.

 

[Turkish]

Last one looks familiar
