Remembering Japanese cars from the past

Video: No Pikes No Life!

This cute video featuring many many photos of Nissan Paos and Nissan Figaros (and their owners) was created by Yamamottinn, I expect him to have had a lot of work visiting, photographing and finding the right setting for all those individuals…

Loved it so much that I re-ran it several times and already played with the idea of owning one myself. ;)

Video: 1966 Third Japanese Grandprix prequel

This prequel to the 1966 third Japanese Grandprix held at Fuji International Speedway is a great rendering of the era back then: no fear, real men with big engined cars, the Prince r380 and, of course, the big rival Porsche!

I also found it a bit weird that the Jaguar E-Type got so much attention compared to the Honda S800 and Toyota Sports 800. Then again: the Nissan Skyline C10 still had to arrive…

Video: first trackday for the MotorFIX 1UZE70!

This very first drift video of the MotorFIX Corolla 1UZE70 just got posted on Youtube. Apparently it had its maiden trackday Yesterday afternoon at the YZ Circuit.

In the first few minutes they take it gently, but after two minutes the Corolla gets really tail happy with its new engine. Unfortunately it starts to rain and you can see it gets more difficult to control the car but after a couple of laps the driver regains control.

Also notice the white Carina AA63 (with fender mirrors) trying to keep up. It is doing a good job IMO. :D

Vintage video: Akita cruise in a Skyline Japan

I really enjoyed this vintage video from 1983 taken from the backseat of a Skyline Japan C210. The Skyline cruises around the Akita prefecture where you can see a lot of old Japanese cars (back then quite new): a Skyline C110, a Bluebird 910 and a Suzuki Fronte SS40 to name a few. Also quite a few car dealerships and parking lots are passed by and you can actually see some secondhand cars lined up that are considered rare nowadays.
