So it’s not just the Japanese that can over design car then, & why do Chevy keep moving their bow tie badge?

I’m half English half Northern Irish, now any time the Brits appear we are always stuck up, have bad teeth.

Autoart 1/18th models, if you like your JDM they are well worth a look.

You act like the RS & RA versions of EVOs & STIs were built in their tens of thousands, the build numbers of these cars were very low because they were built to rallied.

WRC cars are a whole different ball game, I think you’re being a little pedantic here.

Just a little info for yer bud.

Funny, I always thought that RA stood for Rally Altered not Record Attempt.

& yet he STILL had the thing on autopilot.

Simple solution, pick up the phone, call Toyota & then scream HELP.

I desperately wanted a set of these for my Mitsubishi Colt, could I find them anywhere, no.

I’m sure that car appeared in Demolition Man.

Make the grill bigger?

While the rest of the world had no restrictions on power the Japanese were limited ( officially ) to 276 bhp, this gave them the chance to develop cars with active aero, 4WS , torque vectoring diffs , active dampers, aluminum panels were pretty common place, & of course the NSX being all aluminum.

You’re very lucky being able to get hold of some really interesting cars, we had quite a lot of JDM imports come to the UK during the late 90s & early 00s but it seems to have tailed off a bit with the exchange rate not being very favourable.

My Dad works for Mitsubishi UK soon I’ve always had access to lots of cool JDM brochures, so many oddball cars that most of the world never got, including the Mirage/Lancer with that little V6.

Mine’s smaller than yours!

Mitsubishi actually produced a V6 with a displacement of 1597cc called the 6A10, it was in the Mirage & Lancer back in the early 90s.

I couldn’t agree more, the technology involved in getting a vehicle to drive itself should never be allowed to be in the hands of such a desperate company.

I was thinking about checking the road tax, interesting that it’s listed as black though.
