Same. It would be nice to have a voting system in place. There are too many fails in the win section and wins in the fail section.

TA/RA22/23/Whatever the ****** it is Celica FTW! I want one.

The old Skylines are beautiful. When did they lose their style & character?....

Cressida is cool too. Theres a lot of interesting old Jap cars that most people don't even know exist.

agreed, id love to do up a mitsi gto, imo they a stunning looking car from the 70s.

in a way its a pity that australia missed out on so much, if more of the cool jap stuff came here in the 70s and 80s there wouldnt be so much negativity towards jap cars now.

of course, there probably wouldn't be a ford or holden local industry either if that had happened.

Haven't you been reading the last few pages Jim? Every car with massive wheels and rooted camber is a win apparently...

Its an external oil cooler, first appeared on the "Hakosuka" (or Box Skyline) GT-R race cars in the 70's, and has slowly worked its way down the the more hardcore japanese "Bozosoku" and street cars of similar era, in the same way 6/71's found there way into "street cars".

I agree the lines on the FON22Y RA23 are a bit overkill, but he has built it to bosozoku style, and most cars of that style are taken to the extreme (same with the huge stretch...) I believe he no longer has it and has gone for a cleaner style, but also has CF doors and bonnet...

Hmm, don't see any "rooted camber" or massive wheels?, some dish, yeah there is. But i see lots of sub 17in rims...

I dont see the point in having 10" wide rims with 195 crossply tyres stretch fitted kinda makes the wide rims a bit pointless

Not the prettiest thing but anything is better then becoming a hot 4s forum.
And yes I know Skylines are 6s but at 2 litres they are hardly epic.

A fad thats been going on from the 70's? Never less, its just like Jelly bean mags, zoomies, Hotdogs, tinted plexiglass and the many other trends that have been around....

And tire stretch is more of a Euro thing anyway...well its meant to have originated form there...the japs just took it on board. Its about getting the car to sit low over the wheel/tire combination, without having the hideous look of the wheels sitting too far in the fender....
