Remembering Japanese cars from the past

DR30 Carclub Restive Horse


At the Garage Pleasure blog I spotted a picture of a DR30 parked in front of a Garage where the DR30 inside garage looked very very agressive:

Now what would be the purpose of that DR30?

I found out that the Garage belonged to the DR30 carclub Restive Horse and they park three of their most precious DR30s in there:

The one (for the people at home) on the left is a true hardcore track monster (still road legal!) and the one on the right able to drive both on the road and on the track.

Yes, you can only see two of them because the two in front are parked so tight that you can hardly see the one parked behind them! I knew square meters are expensive in Japan, but that it actually is this bad:

That is just millimeters away from denting! :P

This is how aggressive the road going track monster looks:

This picture proves that hardcore track cars can also be very cute:

Kawaiiii! ^_-
I should have made such a picture of my Carina and my son, but for that it is already too late: he weights more than 19 kilograms already…

Nostalgic 2 days pictures


As B-San already commented: pictures of the Nostalgic 2 days already were available in the past days. I searched on Minkara and picked out the nicest I could find:
Nostalgic 2 days: cleanest DR30 ever!
Nostalgic 2 days: cleanest DR30 ever!

Yes, a genuine pre facelift Nissan Skyline RS Turbo DR30 and it is the cleanest example I’ve seen so far!

For Orion and Kyteler:
Nostalgic 2 days: cleanest FJ20-ET ever!
Nostalgic 2 days: cleanest FJ20-ET ever!

It also got the cleanest FJ20-ET ever! At least: apart from when these cars left the factory of course! :D

To prove that the Australians did something right with their own Skylines:
Nostalgic 2 days: Fairlady 240Z with 30RB
Nostalgic 2 days: Fairlady 240Z with 30RB

The Japanese love the 30RB for its increased displacement, so pairing this engine with a set of carbs only sounds like a sane thing when you drop it into a Fairlady 240Z.

Nostalgic 2 days: genuine Nissan Skyline GTR KPGC110

How about this genuine Nissan Skyline GTR? One out of 197 produced, ever! That’s almost as rare as unobtainium!

Nostalgic 2 days: Nissan Sunny B110 race car

And such an event is nothing without the occasional nostalgic race cars:

Nostalgic 2 days: Nissan LZ16 DOHC engine
Nostalgic 2 days: Nissan LZ16 DOHC engine

This Sunny B110 race car had a rare DOHC LZ16 race engine in its engine bay!

Now that may be a bit too much Nissan overkill, so here is a Toyota:
Nostalgic 2 days: Toyota Mark II GX61
Nostalgic 2 days: Toyota Mark II GX61

A shakotan Toyota Mark II GX61! :)
