The hell kind of headlights are those? Those aren't the stock lights like our Lexus, are they? They look too skinny or something.
 
Nah...I never got the primer thing either. I like gloss coats. Flat black is too...in progress. unfinished.

Stockers (Soarer) missing the seperate round light that is usually between the main light and grill.

I'd say you'll see that about as often as an LP640 around these parts. It may have been a shoot, but I'd certainly stop and take a picture.
 
How about some Mugen Hondas?...

Hmm, those Mugens are pretty interesting. Thanks for posting them. I wonder how much they're worth and how many were produced and are left in that condition?
 
Original Japanese registration sticker and all.

I saw a as new C210 coupe the other day (original Aussie sold version). some old lady was driving it, I would love to have bought it from her.
 
Just came across this Supra here on a car sales page:

900HP, so in short, this thing is pure Supra epic-ness :drool:
 
What hasn't had a LS1 in it? Thats what the question should be, and if you find one I am sure it is a work in progress. :sly:
 
Original JDM goodness! Problem is, you'd be lucky if only one of each still existed.

Funnily enough I was on a forum (on a google search for Mugen parts) the other day and came across a Honda vs Ford argument that came about as a result of a Ford owner insulting a members Mugen Prelude (It was dark purple/blue, very nice).

Obviously the Ford owner didn't realise how special the Prelude was, called it rice, and got burnt.

No worries 👍 They're all from official Mugen catalogues I found online. I expect there aren't many left in that condition unfortunately :indiff:

that red hatchback is a 3rd gen.

Corrected, thanks. I wasn't sure. Yep... in retrospect I remember what the 4th gen one looks like, has a more CRX II-like front end. The 3rd gen is the one the original CRX was based off.
 
LS1 powered S13? :eek:
Damn, that just sounds so wrong in so many ways...... but that just makes it even more attractive. :D
 
The only Silvias that really appeal to me are the version after that model above (I was sure they were S13s, but maybe I'm wrong), I've decided. I guess I'm not into the whole drift thing so their significance doesn't mean as much to me, and it's the version that looks the best to me so I base everything on that!

This version, I'm referring to:

Ahhhh right, thank you. Learn something new every day. I've been calling the 180SX a Silvia or S13 for ages. It was called the 180SX in the UK and the S14 was called the 200SX, so I just assumed the 200SX was the natural successor. To my knowledge we've never got any earlier or later Silvias in the UK.

Anyway, the 180SX is the one I think looks cool, and I've no real interest in the others, unless they've been given some particularly good tuning treatment.

As said they are both S13's, the hatch back verision (180SX) is a RS13, and the Silvia version is a S13 (excluding engine and Hicas codes)


Also as said in Japan they were 180sx even after the engine change to 2.0L until they switched to S14. But in the UK they did use the 200SX name on the hatch (RS13) types also (with 2.0L engine fitted) and in the US they used the 240SX same (2.4L engine) with old Japanese 1.8L style front bumper.


Really is a bit of a mix up and easily confused.

Well you got me confused on that part as well. Didn't the Silvia coupe was called a PS13, and the Silvia fastback a RPS13? Maybe I got my facts all wrong then. :guilty: But yeah, the name really gets confusing when you start calling them by their platform names......
