Remembering Japanese cars from the past

video: Honda City Bulldog close escape

My interest in the Honda City Bulldog hasn’t died out yet. What about this Bulldog doing a close escape during a Bulldog cup race?

Amazing how much that car can withstand! It is doing a full roll @2:48, survives it and the driver even recovers the car from the gravel and returns to the pit without much trouble! That’s one sturdy car! I want one now! ;)

Hilarious: Mori hair girls

Another proof that Japanese girls love weird fashion: the mori hari. This has been fashion for a while now and the media is picking it up as well, like this damn funny advertisement:

If you want to see how big this craze is, watch this video:

WTF?! How can you have 8cm of hair?

Carina Sightings: Carina bi-turbo diesel drifting

I posted some videos of this Finnish Carina before and his car is getting more and more interesting! A few days ago he posted a new in-car video of a drift session on the Botniaring:

Even though the sound of his Carina does not match our expectations (no high revving 4A-GE, but a bi-turbo 2L-T) he surely can throw the car sideways as it should with all that (slow) torque!

Apparently I was truely wrong about his project two years ago when he posted up the first videos on StreetFire…

Video: the KE70 and AE86 mosquito squad


Both jrotaro and ae86lan posted videos of their drift runs on the Ebisu drift festival. This one is onboard a KE70 (obviously with no K engine under the hood anymore) showing the mad angles of this 4A-GE mosquito squad:

The last runs the KE70 acts as a referee car when the red Levin and blue Trueno go head to head against each other. The Trueno may look a bit boro, but leaving the third door in the pit is quite common nowadays. ;)

This video by ae86lan shows his drift skills in the KE70:

Clearly he needs to clean his windshield before recording a video. :P

And a last video with more mosquito action from jrotaro onboard a white Trueno:
