Guest Z-rific Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 At first i thought the pipes in the back were for some strange jack underneath the car. Then, unfortunately, I realized what they were. Apparently I need to take a hood off a Lincoln and make a new air dam for my Z. Shows you why the Japanese aren't world leaders in style and fashion. Conclusion......GAUDY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poundz9oh9 Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 SO .... would they think the modified cars over here absurd compared to theirs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z-REX Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 i couldn't figure it out either. : my wife concludes either... a. the picasso family moved to tokyo to contnue his tradition or...b. the japanese have a thing for giant legos... either that or somebody needs to fire the guy that teaches fiberglass class!

Owen Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 It's emabarassing to think there are still people like this around. The new fad in Japan is copying the ricer cars over here...how's that for a step backwards... Check this thread out too. http://hybridz.org/nuke/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=33925&highlight=yankee Don't tell me ya don't like the flares on this one tho! 50grand in modifications to a minivan...

Vintage-TechZ Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 "Self expression,in all cultures ,is always frowned upon by those who stand by and have none to express" The Japanese have a fondness for the "Animated" mind ! Thats all. The absurd is entertaining to them.But of course not to all of them. I always try to find "SOME" kind of entertainment in our culture differences even though I might never attempt to try those "STYLES" I always give an "A" for any job thats completed,but I still must concur with you guys and say "WOW".......so how much time did that take anyway ?? ..................Vince Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spotfitz Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 I have no clue what this is, but it isn't actually to bad. Some of the skylines pictured on that site seem to keep it civil when it comes to mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2126 Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Ahhh, come on guys! Isn't it obvious.....they're all auditioning their rides for a spot on a new video game!!! I personally think their taste is in their mouth.....but if it blows their skirts up and their having fun...so be it! Either that or it's proof that taking too many drugs, does impare your thinking.

john kosmatka Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 This car actually does look decent. looks pretty nice. Or maybe the other cars on that site give it that effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Notice the lettering on the hood...PERFECT description..."Autobacs"... pronounced as AUTO BOX, as in CAR BOX. But really, do they have cattle running the streets around there? I mean, what's with the sheet of plywood for a front air dam??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ON3GO Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 thats a old old thrend in the car world over there. mostly those cars are owned by the much older people that were into cars back in the day. some of those cars are very very cool, some arent my taste but still different and even though some might look like crap the quailty of work is A++++++ mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Roman Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 ive always liked that old school jap kid look. i mean Cmon? how many guys over here build old t buckets and leave them primered with rust holes and stuff. just different fads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 But really' date=' do they have cattle running the streets around there? I mean, what's with the sheet of plywood for a front air dam???[/quote'] I think it's a dance floor, hence all the lights on the cars??? How about a drive -up diving board for those trips down to the river. You guys should be really greatful for this post, cars like this are a dieing breed (thank god). It's like on the discussion boards over in Japan where they post pictures of Elvis and James Dean look a likes and think that's what everyone over here looks like!
