Carina Sightings: Carina Fujiwara Tofu special

No votes yet

This Carina Sighting is actually half a family album treasure: it is exactly how Bunta Fujiwara (or Shuichi Shigeno) would have made the Fujirara Tofu special if it were a four door car!

It is all there: the Ciebie yellow foglights, gunmetal grey RS Watanabe rims and a panda paintscheme! (was standard on the zenki AA63)

Breaking news: Fujiwara tofushop no more

No votes yet

Yesterday evening was a sad one: I read Alexi's latest post on Nori Yaho and discovered the Haruna tofushop (aka the Fujiwara tofushop in Initial D) has been demolished:
Fujiwara Tofushop was once here...

Where you see that big empty space in the picture above, used to be the shop as shown in the picture below:

Sad, sad, sad....

So, Bunta now has enough space to park the Toyota Ipsum (Picnic). :D

You can read all the details about Alexi's trip to Mount Haruna on Nori Yaro.


Initial D: Bunta has sold the Toyota Ipsum

I came accross this image on Mattari's blog and it reminded me of the Toyota Ipsum posting I made a year ago...

Too bad the video has been removed now... In a nutshell: it contained another Fujiwara Tofu replica parked in front of the tofu shop and in the background a Toyota Ipsum (Picnic outside Japan) was parked next to the tofu shop on the same spot the AE86 used to be parked... So apparently Bunta has sold the Ipsum! :D

Anyway, below this picture there was a whole (2chan) thread copied in which a couple of users wrote a funny Initial D spoof! I advice you to go to Mattari's blog and read the whole story (with Google Translate for instance)! ;)

Hilarious: Happy Meal drift (better than Bunta!)

Your rating: None Average: 5 (2 votes)

Now this is a real happy meal: this guy eats his Mc Donalds meal while drifting the Ebisu North course! Not only does he eat it on the straights, but he also does it Bunta style and picks up and returns his milkshake into the cupholder! Now that is EPIC!

Now if only he could pick up his order on the drive through this way! :D

Also check out his extensive (and humorous) report on this trick on Youtube.

Random: Fujiwara Tofu Corolla AE81 special

Your rating: None Average: 1.3 (4 votes)

No, that is not a typo! It is indeed an Fujiwara Tofu Toyota Corolla AE81:

Fujiwara Tofu Corolla AE81 special

If Bunta Fujiwara would have driven an AE81 instead of the famous AE86, this is how he would have dressed up his little rolla. ;)
(it even has proper sideskirts!)
