Skyline R32

Hilarious: Limo drifting (Initial D parody)

No votes yet

I had a good laugh when I watched this short video of kimiga aruzide shitsuziga orede where a Lincoln Town Car limo goes downhill sideways head to head with a BNR32 GTR!

Obviously the Town Car wins! :D :D
(or should it be called Lincoln Touge Car then?)


Nissan Skyline R32: all models together

Your rating: None Average: 3 (1 vote)

I found a bunch of Nissan Skyline R32 catalogue scans and thought it would be a great idea to glue them together into one single image. So behold the whole Nissan Skyline R32 range:
Nissan Skyline R32 all models
Nissan Skyline R32 all models

I never knew there was so much variety in the Skyline R32 range! I thought it only consisted of the GTS25, GTS-T, GTS4, GT-R and (of course) the GT-R Vspec. So the GXi, GTE and GTS models were quite a surprise to me...
Also funny to see how they used the lights to accentuate all other cars in the range to have the same widened fenders as the GT-R.

BTW: reminds me I still have to copy-paste such an image of all Silvia Generations


Commercial time: all JDM Skyline commercials on DVD!

I saw this amazing video containing all Japanese Nissan Skyline commercials being announced a few weeks back on a Minkara blog:

This DVD covers almost all models: from the second generation (S50), third generation (C10 aka hakosuka), fourth (C110 aka Kenmeri) and up to the tenth generation (R34)!

I was able to find the DVD on Amazon Japan (スカイライン CMコレクション [DVD]), but I haven't seen it for sale elsewhere... Now if only the shipping costs from Japan weren't that steep... :(


Bee*R R324 versus B☆RS ER34

No votes yet

We all know the famous Bee*R R324 conversions. Ever since they became available they are flooding the forums! So let's kick off with a nice example in Finland:

Now, that's the old style...

Let's have a look at the the new style B☆RS ER34:

I know, I know... Most of you don't like the B☆RS at all! But think about it as what most people thought about JDM car styling 10 years ago... Will this be our future?

Japanese rustoseums (part four)

It is time for some more rustoseums! :)

Let's start with this four door Nissan Skyline sedan:

As you can see it must have had some really big fender extenders which now have been removed. Would that mean the fender extenders were considered more expensive than the Skyline?

What about a nice Toyota Mark II X7 wagon with some plants on it?

Is it actually going to be used as a flowerbed? Or did the owner intend it to grow into a Crown MS120 wagon?

Somehow I always smile when I see these third generation Honda Accords:

The front of the car really resembles the Trueno. Of course the bumper is a bit different, but it is styled closer to a Trueno than the Silvia S12! Sad to see this example without its eyes...

A really (c)rusty Corolla KE30:

And it has got the great looking hubcaps!

Personally I thought this was a first generation Cedric 130, but the poster of the picture says it is actually a Isuzu Bellet sedan:

Bellet sedan? Were those actually made??
