BIPPU – VIP styled Toyota Crown

Bippu, what does it mean? It’s modification of JDM luxury cars with purpose to make them even more luxurious. It’s also called VIP style (it’s obviously why). Whole bippu thing started with Yakuzas. They used to drive around with high-priced European luxury cars and they were getting too much attention by the police and rival gangs. Luxury EU cars were spotted easily, so they decided to drive JDM cars wich don’t get so much attention by others. But JDM limo sedans were not so exotic, so they started to mod them Bippu style and make pimp-mobils out of them:)

Typical bippu mods are big wheels, large mufflers, and lowered suspensions straight to the ground. It was all made on JDM sedans and limos, and with years, bippu style passed on minivans and kei cars and got very popular among styling freaks.

Hope you like this new “section” ;) Oldschool Toyota Crown

83’ Toyota Corolla AE71 – oldschool hachi

Totally renovated oldschool Toyota Corolla AE71 (the fourth Corolla generation) from Philippines.
Hachis deserve to live, respect to renovation project, this AE71 Corolla looks like a brand new car. Equipped with LSD from AE86 GTS and powered by “Black top” engine – Toyota’s 20v 4A-GE engine, which came out in 5.generation of Corollas and is originally equipped with ITB. Sounds evil, as it really is!

EG6 body graphic

What a body graphic by Designwerx on silver Civic EG6! I’m not a body stickers and graphic fan, but this thing sure looks hot! A true racing look, EG6 sitting on Spoon rims. Photo by Nick_Me

Triple Drift AE86 and Silvia

Photos "in action" impress me the most. Two Toyotas AE86 Hachi-Roku and Nissan 180SX from Sexy Knights Team in triple parallel drift photo.

Honda HSV-10 GT

First official picture of substitute for "old" Honda NSX. It's not going to be a civil car. For now... it will be only be produced in 5 examples (teams: ARTA, Dome, Real Racing, TEAM Kunimitsu and Nakajima Racing) in the beginning of 2010 for racing purposes in Japan Super GT series.
Almost full carbon-fibre body runned by 3,4L V8 engine which shall produce about 600 bhp! HSV-10 GT is going to rev up to 10.300rpm, it means we can expect some crazy sound coming out of engine.
We wish Honda HSV-10 GT all the best, to sucessfully continue path of a legendary NSX.

Drifting with Nissan S14 Silvia at 206 Kph

Remember driving on a highway at more than 200 Kph? Remember how trees and landscape are dissapearing fast when you look through the window? Imagine driving sideways at that speed in 750 hp Nissan Silvia S14... priceless :)

Canned EG6 and Integra in L.A.

Should I say anything? Action of policemen in L.A. to prevent illegal street races... Because building a racetrack is too expensive. Morons... Video of destroying those cars here

Integra Missed shift 3rd gear

Epic fail, Honda Integra missed shift on 1/4mile dragrace. 2nd gear revs to top end 9k+rpm, than missed 3rd gear, back to 1st, about 12k+rpm... Result: broken engine.

HKS TRB02 EVO 8 Story

It was back in 2004 where Japan tuners gathered at Tsukuba Circuit to race in Video Option's 2004 Tsukuba Super Lap Challenge. HKS had Tsukuba circuit record that time (55 seconds flat), made by their HKS Lancer Evolution 8 Hypermax TRB02. This 552hp monster was built especially to break Tsukuba Circuit fastest tuner-car time. TRB literally means Tsukuba Record Breaker.

HKS EVO 8 TRB02 had a super-light body made of carbon fiber material. Bumpers, seat, wing, doors, bonnet, roof... it was all super light with crazy power/weight ratio. Interior of course specially designed for TRB Evo8 driver Nobuteru Taniguchi and his driving style; Takata seat-belt, Bride Zeta III CF seat, Chrono DB oil pressure meter... Sitting on gold Advan RG II racing wheels with Yokohama A048 (265-35-R18) tires, it was the meanest looking EVO ever.

HKS that day with driver Nobuteru Tanaguchi gave a lesson to other tuners what a CF bodied HKS tuned EVO8 can do, they broke their own record, setting a super-lap time 54,739 seconds. HKS had a few more runs, but tragedy happened after super-lap, brakes locked before corner and Taniguchi drove a car to the wall. Things like that happen when the car is driving on the edge of limit, I bet Taniguchi was looking for time in 53.xxx second range.

All the engine tuning parts are still available at HKS, so if you have about 100+k$ too much, you can build your own HKS TRB02 EVO 8 Hypermax.

Crash afterwards:

SS Works CRX Tsukuba Trackday Pics

Don't know why, but I fall in love in SS Works Honda CRX. With big ass rear double-wing, diffusor and sharp front lip (let's face it)it isn't an extra good looking car:), but all of the exterior accessories are necessary for doing their function - grip. Grip is something that you have to miss when driving an SS Work CRX with only 730kg! Super light body is powered by B18C engine (Integra Type R) bored and stroked to 2.0L capacity and tuned to about 240hp. It's a monster however you look at it.
I posted 2 videos of SS Works CRX in action, it's a must-see!
