SHAKOTAN SLIDING: Yansha Soarer at Ebisu
September 18, 2009 4:24 pmCheck out this yansha Z10 Soarer I saw when I was driving at Ebisu Circuit last week.
The paintwork was fresh and shiny, and the guy drove it all the way there from Ibaraki to drift.
That’s nine degrees of camber there on the back wheels.
Nice.
I forgot to get a pic, but the engine is actually a standard JZX100 1JZ with an MA70 gearbox.
Here’s some video I took with my camera phone. Sorry it’s in such low quality, but my phone was in medium setting for some reason, and I didn’t notice. Make sure you check your speaker volume before you play the video, as my phone camera has a really high gain on it.
Either that, or you can turn it up even louder.

Fixed. – Alexi
oh my f**king win!
Gorgeous. 9 degrees camber though? Really? It doesn’t really look extreme in these shots…
Nice sharknose! 😀
I agree with Zeb: it is the best we’ve seen in ages!
Don’t worry about the volume: that sound is only music in our ears! 😉
I have a vintage Aoshima model kit almost I dentical to this… the body is actully like cherry plastic with metallic glitter in it and has MkIIIs will definately use this as inspiration when I eventually buid it 😀
That looks far too good to smash up drifting it! Lovely car
I’m at school right now, and haven’t eaten anything yet, but that car made my hunger go away…
so nicely done
Killer… one of the best kept I’ve seen on the internet..
Awesome! Looks so good sliding.
haha that’s awesome! I thought these cars just drove on freeways with guys dressed in animal costumes hanging out the windows. Sounds so nice, I must own a 1J or 2J at some point in my life
loooooooooooooooove the paint
To Paul 8v:
Yeah, I know what you mean, but to not drive this car to it’s full potential and really flex it’s muscles would be an even bigger shame. I hate cars that are all show and no go. If you build it, then drive it! I hate it when people build or buy an amazing car and then just lock it up in their collection to collect dust, or trailer it everywhere so they can drive for a total of 25 minutes a month.
If you aren’t gonna drive it, sell it to someone who will!! Awesome shots/video Lex!!
love it in those first few shots! but i think it doesnt really look right sideways.. looks like some show pony that i wouldnt want to get beaten up! still MUCH love for the still pics! 😛
Damn I love this car. The first Soarer really was the best looking.
I cant find the words to describe how awesome this is
:-O
that is soooo sick.
please tell me u have a high resolution pic of the 2nd shot.
No such thing that doesn’t look good sideways with smoke pouring off the rears. Mad props to the owner
Coolest car I’ve seen in a blog in a long time.
Thats def not -9 camber. You fail at life
I’d be inclined to believe what the owner told me over your analysis of some mobile phone photos on the internet.
Loving the dash with what looks like contact stuck over?
i’ll live in it
