Remembering Japanese cars from the past
This picture gave me a real 80s feeling:
A whole bunch of Nissan Gloria 430s!
First thing that got into my head was Gloria by Laura Branigan:
Gloria, you’re always on the run now
Running after somebody, you gotta get him somehow
I think you’ve got to slow down before you start to blow it
I think you’re headed for a breakdown, so be careful not to show it
Those lyrics suit the picture really well!
And the winner of the NFS Shift game is…
nobody!
I received no solutions at all, so either the question was too difficult or nobody actually wants NFS Shift. I hope it is the first but I actually suspect it to be the latter…
Moero Downhill Night 2 was my WTF moment of the week:
Yes, that is right: a downhill racing dating sim! WTF?! ?(‘?`?)?
Now, a dating sim isn’t that shocking, but keep in mind that this is an Hentai dating sim! So, cars, downhill racing, babes and X-rated scenes all together in one game? The developers must have thought why not combine all great things boys like?! And when that turned out to be a success they created this second game! ?ยด???
Car lineup is a nice one! Cars seen in the intro so far are: a black/red Suzuki Capuchino, a lotus Elise, a yellow Toyota Supra JZA70, a white Toyota MR2 SW20, a panda Trueno, a white Nissan Silvia S14, a Toyota Celica ST162 (?) and last but not least, a silver Nissan Skyline KPGC10! ( ? ??)
The fun part is that the game can be yours for only $24.95!
This one is especially for Beeoneoneoh!
Suzuki Alto SS40 (Suzuki Fronte)
Normally I just take pictures of every “old” J-tin I come by and it just sits there in a directory on my harddrive. Normally it will never come out again, but every since I read his posting about his SS40 fetish I really had to post this one. ;)
Suzuki Alto SS40 (Suzuki Fronte)
This particular SS40 looked like it belongs to an old lady: it had everything from pictures of (grand)children on its dash till the sheepcloth cover for the steering wheel! And it only travelled 60000 kilometers!
According to the vehicle registration site it was sold to a new owner two years ago, so sale from granny to granny?
The car is practically rust free, except for this hole:
Suzuki Alto SS40 (Suzuki Fronte)
Probably once had a scratch and then deteriorated during its 24 years lifetime.
Another flaw was the front bumper:
Suzuki Alto SS40 (Suzuki Fronte)
Some mild damage deformed it but actually it is like nothing compared to most 24 year old cars!
So, there is only one way to save it properly: slam it to the ground with a set of SSR Mk II rims and add some fender mirrors and a big noisy exhaust to make it complete!
