There is nothing more Italian than a FIAT 500. Forget your Ferraris and Alfa Romeos, it was the tiny 500 that became the car of the people during the late fifties and sixties. They were cheap, practical and economical and gave mobility to the post-war generation of Italians. The little FIAT captivated the minds of enthusiasts with special Abarth modified
I know how a lot of people that read Speedhunters appreciate vintage JDM machinery. And it's thanks to this site that I've also been able to dive deeper into the world of Japanese classic cars, expanding my knowledge and at the same time getting to see some stunning rides. Back when I visited TA Auto , Ando-san kindly had another Fairlady enthusiast
You are looking at a very special Fairlday Z. Unique doesn't even begin to describe this completely custom project that has become very well known in vintage car circles in Japan. The owner and creator of this S30 is Tomimatsu-san, an engineer and development team manager at OS Giken in Okayama. Tomimatsu has been working at OS Giken since 1994
There are very few shops like RE-Amemiya in Japan. On top of their activity as tuners, catering to everything the rotor-head may require, they have also proven themselves in the competitive racing world with their successful Super GT team, D1 team and at events like the Hot Version organized Touge Battle series. Amemiya-san understands what a performance
I thought I'd show you guys another cool BNR34 which after the Garage Ito/ProStock time attack monster proves just how versatile the Skyline GT-R can be. As the name suggests, this is a complete Top Secret project, a car that one of my friends here in Tokyo had built with a specific set of goals in mind. It didn't need to be the fastest R34
You are looking at one of the most far out GT-R time attack projects ever created. It cost a massive $350,000 to build and has yet to see the light of day on a race track. It all started back in 2006 when Hiroya-san, a very good customer of Garage Ito in Osaka, decided to see if he could challenge the lap time record at Tsukuba set by the HKS CT230R
To kick off the March 3rd R33 celebrations I have picked one car that I will forever remember for scaring me silly. It all started with one of those phone calls I often get from Miguel at Newera Imports . Sourcing cars for export means Miguel often gets his hands on some pretty cool rides, but this car was something else. Don't let the 400R graphics
For the true Skyline connoisseur there is one model that has for years been enjoying legendary status. It isn't the Nismo 400R or even the Z-tune but a car that was conceived well before these. Back in the early nineties HKS decided to do what RUF in Germany was doing with Porsches, and started to create a high-performance bespoke version of the
After seeing a widebody JZA80 at Fuji Speedway last month for the HKS Premium Day I was instantly reminded of this Abflug - Curve Supra I shot a few years back. To this day it is one of the most extreme body conversions I have seen, along with another mega-wide Abflug JZA80 I snapped years ago. You can always count on the guys at Abflug to shock and
Cars are like food. Their main aim is to satisfy and fill your appetite for a variety of motoring cravings. And as of late I fell like my diet has consisted of too much boosted Japanese machinery sprinkled with the odd tasting of more tantalizing Euro exotica. So the other week I thought I'd get myself the motoring equivalent of steak and mashed
