Remembering Japanese cars from the past
Drugs are bad m’kay.
Dried mushroom filter
At least, that’s what I thought when I saw this dried out mushroom filter on the RS Yasu blog.
The mushroom filter belonged to this very nive Levin:
Toyota Levin AE86
Now try picture where exactly that missing part currently is… ;)

James sent me a photo of his hot rodded Carina KA67 van. Very very good looking!

The rims have been sold and he is currently waiting for his SSR wheelnuts to arrive and mount a set of…. SSR rims?
We’ve all seen them and loved them: the Nissan Sileighty. Basically a Nissan 180SX with a Silvia S13 nosejob and the end result is a very beautiful blend of a GT hatchback sportscar.
Now what would you do if you do have a Silvia frontend but don’t have a 180SX? Take a Celica XX and swap the Silvia’s nose on it!
WTF?! Toyota Silica?!
I don’t have a better picture of it, but nevertheless it’s looks are stunning!
So, Celica XX MA46 + Silvia S13 = Silica?
This very first drift video of the MotorFIX Corolla 1UZE70 just got posted on Youtube. Apparently it had its maiden trackday Yesterday afternoon at the YZ Circuit.
In the first few minutes they take it gently, but after two minutes the Corolla gets really tail happy with its new engine. Unfortunately it starts to rain and you can see it gets more difficult to control the car but after a couple of laps the driver regains control.
Also notice the white Carina AA63 (with fender mirrors) trying to keep up. It is doing a good job IMO. :D
When I think of a high performance Skyline R30 I alway picture either the louvre grille DR30 or the tekkamen (Iron Mask) DR30, but not this thoroughbred 2000GT Turbo:
Thoroughbred Skyline 2000GT Turbo
Thoroughbred in Skyline terms means it is at least having a L20 engine under its hood:
Thoroughbred Skyline 2000GT Turbo
And normally a thoroughbred L20ET should have a bit more oomph than its predecessor but in this case Nissan kept the entire L20ET the same as in the C211. Perhaps they thought it meant that the shell was thoroughbred and its engine were the strong genes remaining from its predecessor?
