Wallpaper wednesday
This weeks wallpaper is a genuine hakosuka Skyline KPGC10. Some people my say it is the worst thing you can do, but apart from the skewed headlights the car looks like a genuine granchan GTR!

Liberty Walk Skyline KPGC10
Meeting monday
This time a very small zokusha meeting: the infamous Chaser MX41 and an unknown Skyline R31 go head to head on the Federal Rd. circuit:
The power difference between the two cars is apparent: the 1JZ powered Chaser literally smokes the Skyline, however that was not their point. They competed in the twin drift competition and became third during the event! And as a bonus this video shows some of the other contestants as well!
Hot or not: shakotan Celica AA63
How about something different this time? What about a simple shakotan style Celica?

Hot or not? Shakotan Celica AA63
This Toyota Celica is of the later type (kouki) with GT interior, a nice set of deep dish SSR mk3s and lowered in a good shakotan fashion.
Exhaust of the week: Y shaped exhaust
A few weeks ago we posted a Y30 at TAS 2010 with some wild exhaust pipes. Well, I found another picture of the car and it turns out to be no Y30, but a 430:

Must have been the Y shaped exhaust that changed the 4 into a Y! :D
Bosozoku car feature: Okumis Nissan 240Z
Okumi from Thailand sent me the pictures of his Thai zokusha: a 1972 Nissan 240Z!

He owns the Z for seven years now and he is slowly turning it into a genuine zokusha!

This (and previous) picture was taken at the Bangsan Classic Automobile Festival, held on the 27th of february, showing his latest addition: a new sky tailpipe!
Looking at the immaculate cars in the background it sure must have given quite a shock for the other attendees! ;)
More pics and info after the jump!
