Picture of the week: Super Silhouette replica

Tuesday, September 18th, 2012

Super Silhouette racer replicas have always been a major influence in the kaido racer scene. This rebuilt Silvia S12 is clearly not a 100% accurate replica but it will do the job just fine. ;)

The big wedge shaped front air dam is a lot larger than the original and the roofline is obviously not S110 (the S12 Super Silhouette was actually the previous S110 with the S12 front face) but S12.

Picture of the Week: Yon running in the 80s

Back in the 80s you could almost get a Yonmeri Skyline for free and modding it to more modern standards was cheap.

I love the way the two tone color-scheme has been applied: it follows both the lines and the style of the Yonmeri Skyline C110.

This Bluebird 910 shows you how a few simple adjustments make a perfect shakotan car:

Deep dished rims, cut springs to get it as low as possible, attach a (small) oil cooler to the bumper, air horn and a heart shaped neon light where the grille used to be.

Replica: Yonmeri Skyline from Shakotan Boogie

Tuesday, June 5th, 2012

Lucky enough not everyone copies the Shakotan Boogie Soarer or S30, so this Yonmeri Skyline GC110 got the same look and colors as Michiaki’s Skyline!
