Bling in Japan

Check out these cars.

Porsche Content: Say are those Front Mounted oil coolers on 4 cyc water cooled cars? Wonder if they will fit my Carrera...and I wonder if Dansk will custom rig a set of tailpipes on my SIDO muffler.

they`ve got us beat hands down for sheer enthusiasm in the whole custom car culture lifestyle scene.l know California is supposed to be an epicenter and all that and l go to the Pomona swap several times a year-it`s a total blast,but in Japan? That scene there happens all over the country,every night. l`m a vintage Jap car freak though,l`ve had tons and l love em.The new cars?no thanks but l`ll keep buying them for my wife

Makes me want to have Jesse James make me some exhaust pipes ala Monster Garage and paint "Hello Kitty" on my hood.

Neat-o!

They (mostly) look like they're actually meant to go.

I like how they skip the whole huge rim thing. looks like most of those cars are on 13ers

If it's japan, those cars are probably set up for drifting...

Why the skinny tires on the wide rims?

The tire sidewalls look like the bead is about to pop off due to the mismatch in width.
