Ok, so it might not be a new car but seeing it parked up in the pits at Odaiba I just couldn't help myself to get some snaps of Saito's weapon of choice, his now Hankook Tire sponsored JZX100 Chaser. Saito has been behind the wheel of this big Toyota sedan for years now, perfecting it and using it to evolve his style further. It takes serious skills to drive a 800 HP pro-drift car like this the way he does, and I will never forget seeing this thing take off over the crest at Ebisu Minami...

Just a cool photo of a couple JZX100 Chasers pulling off some very large wheel and tire combos in Japan.
Why? Because there's never a bad time for some JZX action.

I was initially very surprised. When I first saw Jay Duca drive up to Andy's garages from the Higashi course in this JZX100 I thought he was crazy if he was going to use this stunning sedan at the Matsuri. Thankfully, the car was something he sourced from Yahoo Auctions to bring home to Australia with him and to use to get around while in Japan. It didn't take me long to ask him if it was cool to do a quick shoot on it for a spotlight, something he instantly agreed to. He told me to go and...

Following on from a couple of requests we had after the feature , you can now grab this as your desktop in both standard and widescreen versions. - Paddy McGrath

We usually associate big horse power figures with stripped, caged and focused track cars. In a country where the Government is constantly increasing it's penalties against those who want to drive interesting cars (as opposed to wanting people to drive pointless hybrid cars with batteries that do more harm to the environment than good) this clean JZX100 throws two fingers up at the establishment before leaving them dusted in a fine layer of smoked Federal tires. Before I give myself a brain aneurysm...

Here's a snap of the famous Team Magician JZX110 Toyota Mark II sitting in the pits at the final round of MSC, which was held at the Mobara Twin Circuit. Seriously who doesn't love this car! -Casey Dhnaram

A battle scarred Chaser running on huge Equips is always a good excuse for a post on Speedhunters. Shot by Rob from the Roadsterdrift Blog at a Bihoku drift day. -Jeroen Willemsen

Just wanted to share this awesome JZX100 Mark II shot by Mr. Yuta Akaishi (owner of that 240Z that set the internet on fire) during his trip to Japan.
The place never ceases to amaze me. Must get back soon...
For more great pics, check Yuta's blog, Oh, you speak English?

Just spotted this video starting to do the rounds through the message boards and social networking sites. Filmed by the guys at Powervehicles it shows just how hard the likes of Hibinio and Saito are pushing at Ebisu. Check out the insane four wheel jump from Saito in the Chaser at 2.48 onwards !

Today's internet travels brought me across this photo of two RC JZX100 Chasers built by someone in Japan. Not only do they look cool. but it reminded me that we haven't run any RC material for quite a while.
Personally, I always enjoy looking at peoples scale recreations of our favorite cars. What about you?

A few days back I was browsing through the auto blogs I visit daily and found a link to the Mattfresh Blog from New Zealand. It became an instant favorite and has given me many new wallpapers to stare at. Recently Matt went to a drift event at the Hampton Downs circuit. Some familiar faces showed up and Matt covered the event in his own cool way. The opening shot contains so much win. Broken aero parts, worn tires, numerous sets of wheels and a cool AE85 in the background that's been dropped...

Hello Speedhunters. James here, a 25 year old ordinary dude who is engineer from Sydney. I first purchased this car for roughly 2 years now heading into 3 years. As many may know it is Toyota JZX100 Mark II Tourer V. It is my JDM car of choice in this era we live in....

If there is one tuning shop in Japan that is well worth a look during this month's Misfits & Mavericks theme it has to be Weld . A lot of people make the mistake of classifying it as just a regular tuner, but I've always thought Johnny at Weld does things differently. He has vision and he's never afraid to push boundaries when it comes to building cars. I shot his JZX100 demonstration car before it got its updated 2009 D1 graphics so that is why it may look different in these pictures...

Some of you had a ‘problem' with the amount of camber on my latest feature . So here is another take on a similar level, this time on a JZX100. The car is just as low but doesn't have the camber. The wheels seems to be a set of Vienna's Noble in black; the contrast works very well with the red exterior. -Jeroen Willemsen

What better way to start this month with the Spirant build JZX100. Any change is a welcome excuse to get this car on Speedhunter. This time the owner has had a small refresh with some new decals. The car is a favorite of mine for a long time. This car has the stance department on lock, it looks that good. -Jeroen Willemsen

If you're planning a trip to Japan, I highly recommend NOT going during the month of June -unless you enjoy wet weather that is. I've been here for two weeks now, and I don't think there's been a single day when it hasn't rained. With that said, here's some more rainy action from the Yellowhat Motorsports soukoukai at Nikko Circuit last week....

Cars that are built and driven in Japan by some of the greatest tuning houses are popular export products. It is pretty evident when I look at some of the cars that are competing in drift series around the world, especially when I take a look at my old car that I imported from Ken Nomura through Powervehicles. I sold the car to a guy in the UK and I was scared it would be taken apart, but luckily I saw some pictures of it drifting again....

As another perfect weather weekend in Southern California finishes off, I find myself thinking about Japan more and more. Looking through one of my terabyte hard drives full of photos, I spotted this JZX100 in my D1 Street Legal folder. I was lucky enough to see and hear this in person... it was awesome. Just remembering the incredible sound of the turbocharged 2JZGTE engine roaring at high rpm, with the hollow sounding 6 cylinder exhaust note bouncing against the legendary blue walls and pit garages...

A while ago I stumbled upon a blog called Nori Yaró , and I became a instant frequent visitor. Last Thursday I found this gem. A Toyota Chaser JZX100 with a BN Sports bodykit, crazy fenders and VS-KF chrome wheels. This thing looks to be in perfect condition and I suppose must be a show queen. I would love to cruise the streets in this monster and maybe pick up some girls at the local club.... -Jeroen Willemsen
