You might have seen the AE85 I picked up recently in one of the posts below this one. Check out the daily-driver that belongs to the guy I purchased it from!

This film shot of the Noriyaro AE85kai was taken by Keisuke Nagashima from 86fighters when he came out to the AE86 festival at Sports Land Yamanashi a couple of months ago.
I have a fairly big video about this car coming up soon, so look forward to that!
4 CommentsRemember the Buzz Killers video from last week? The guy in the AE86, Takuya Takahashi, is back again in his other AE86 (yep, he has more than one!) making mincemeat of the corners at Tsukuba Circuit.
1 CommentHis Chaser was one of the coolest ones in Japan, but Manabu Mitsumori has sold it off to concentrate on his new car, an AE70 coupe!
Check out this PV (promotion video, which is what music videos are called in Japan) of the car in action at Nikko Circuit!
4 CommentsThis is Mr Lavender’s garage. He’s a crazy drifter and is also quite mad for KE70s.
15 CommentsA couple of weeks ago, I met up with Grant from Queensland’s Midnight Mechanics and his girlfriend here in Tokyo. About a day later though, he was down in Gifu, visiting a MotorFix track day at YZ Circuit East!
Some of you may be familiar with Grant’s red AE71, so you can probably understand why he made the trip down there to see their new 1uZ-powered Corolla and go for a few rides in it.
Luckily, Grant is pretty handy with a camera too, so click here to read the article on the Midnight Mechanics site.
4 CommentsWhat are the things that come to mind when you think of the Bee☆R workshop? Skyline, Nissan and GT-R are probably the first three, so the owner of this car may come as a surprise.

12 CommentsPart II, action from the track!
16 CommentsIt seems a lot of you remember when I posted this preview a while ago of the “Hachido Rokubu Kanari Juushou” event on the 6th of August last year. Well, the best photos ended up being published in Drift Tengoku, and I ended up completely forgetting about the rest!
The “Hachido Rokubu Kanari Juushou” name of the event literally translated means “8.6° Severe Illness”, but the meaning is more along the lines of “I’ve got a fever, and the only prescription is some more AE86!”
So for today, let’s look at the pits. Tomorrow, action from the track. The day after, Hachiroku weirdness and cool stuff.
8度6分かなり重症ハチロク走行会取材、パートワンです!明日は走行の写真。
