Poll: Did you abandon your project?
In last weeks poll most visitors thought the bamboo spears exhaust is hot!
This week I came across pictures of a bunch of abandoned kaido racers, including this Nissan Leopard F30:
Abandoned kaido racer
Apparently someone either thought kaido racers are not hot anymore or just started on a new project.
Nevertheless the big question is: did you ever abandon a kaido racer project?
by banpei with no comments yetExhaust of the week: Side exhaust Crown MS125
I like the way the side exhaust is mounted to this Toyota Crown MS125: a bunch of clamps attached to the rear passenger door hold the side exhaust in the air!

At least the monkey still has a way to exit the vehicle. (???)b
For the people awake at this hour: this Crown was posted before in a deep dish feature.

Tokyo Auto Salon 2011 opened its doors about 14 hours ago, so it should be a matter of hours before we can see videos and photos coming in. More specifically: the ones containing all the zokushas on the parkinglot! ?(´???)
Until then, enjoy the TAS 2010 mashup video I made two months ago:
There will certainly be a remake of this video with 2011 contents! (´??)
Enoshima sunrise run meeting
As promised earlier this week: the remaining of the Enoshima sunrise meeting pictures!
Enoshima sunrise meeting
Sunrise run meetings are an old tradition for the bosozoku on the first day of the new year. They are held at various places, but mostly near the seacoast where you can directly see and celebrate the sunrise!
All these pictures were taken at sunrise:

Not only are these 14 inch 12J wide SSR Mk IIs very nice to look at, also the four door Laurel C130 and two four door Skyline C110s in the background are equally nice to look at:
Deep dish SSR Mk II 12J
The title of the Auctions Yahoo ad says they are family car rims! Can’t agree more with that!
The offset is ET-54, so that’s pretty deep dish!
Deep dish SSR Mk II 12J
According to the seller they don’t have any corrosion, but one of them has a minor dent in them:
Deep dish SSR Mk II 12J
It can be fixed if you actually weld it, but that’s only a minor thing for its low buymenow-price of 95,000 yen (1,140 US dollars).
