what is so terrible about their tires??? everyone at justdrift loves them. excellent grip for drifting. and heat cycle nicely

[Jtuned_andy]

Very creative, although not my style, I would love to see anyone bashing this car to even attempt to re-create it.

[Kougeki]

Just cause it's different, doesn't mean it's cool.
I respect the guy for having enough balls to do
something this... something like this.

I saw this at yashio factory. Looks like the same car

[deadpirate]

they made 2 or more of them..one in the green ish color..one orange

[bik]

there is a video option around where they made that orange car, is made in top secret, is Dai's and Mr. Oka (yashio factory) modify the engine

[jspaeth]

Wow that's some ugly shit

[Charlie]

ehhh creative but not my style

[S.ONE.THREE]

WTF do you know, Federal tires are good drift tires and they put alot of time + money into this sport but like i said what do you know im sure you rock junkyard specal tires in 195/60. fu*kin pos. :spank:


*Note* wrong tread.

[tiresmokes13]

Looks pretty cool to me.
Federal makes great tires.

[BustedS13]

great grip for drifting? so that means what, no grip for.. gripping? yeah, keep buying your taiwan tires.

[civilized_drifter]

there was a video of the shop who made it on youtube but it has been taken off for some reason

[motorsnail]

The supra/celica conversion owns this thing for sure:fawk2:

Need I say more, It's sad theres guys on here who work their asses off to afford wheels that fit right and these sponsored companies cant figure it out.

[nevaland9]

hella sunk...ftl

[s13Dr1ft]

Very creative, although not my style, I would love to see anyone bashing this car to even attempt to re-create it.

Who would want to re-create that? If i wanted a Z, id buy one. I dont need to waste the money converting my 16yrd car's fron end just for "Oh snaps" factor

[Bushido]

ehh... not quite as bad as the mercedes sl front and rear... still heinous though.

[LimitedEdition]

there is a pic of it in the mercedes conversion thread.

[xpl2007]

Pretty cool thanks!!

[silviatunersr20]

Its not so bad, I dont like the front but have always been a fan of the G35 rear except for the wing and rear bumper combo that they got going on.

[racepar1]

I think Top Secret debuted this conversion at the Tokyo Auto Salon this year.

[Nikeboy355]

If I had that car, I'd put a ton of aero on it(functional through development ofcourse) and pull the front headlights out...

I'd like to drive what a real Japanese tuner can build...

[Neejay]

Nice idea/creative, but ugh...

[ericcastro]

Jesus People!!! ITS MARKETING !!!!

Yes its uggs, but its on all the forums, in the mags, in the videos, youtube, and pulls ALOT of attention at the events. It will probably be all over HIN and HID and NOPI this whole year.
So how much did it cost the sponsors??? Less than it would normally cost to get the attention this "conversion" got them.

And I personally thik the rear is pretty dope. I think its just the lights and the little wing. from the pics, the lower bumper looks almost as odd sizes as the front end does. Maybe a tail light conversion kit with wing would work??

And the "companies" will never "get it". By the time you work your way to those influencial positions, your older and off the pulse of the youth. Thats why places like Disney spend Millions on research. Video game companies have kids come in to play games and get feedback, test audiences for movies, ebay holds a weeklong seller/buyer conference where they just listen to complaints and suggestions.
They know they dont get it.

And look at some of the peoples haircuts and dress at car events. There are some REALLY astetically handicapped people in motorsports. So what happenes when they get some money??? And you mix that in with the human drive to leave a mark??? They will do something like this car. lol

The owner has two of them, the orange for street, and the green for drift, though I've seen pics of him drifting both of them, and they're both super ugly.

Thats bound to happen. Kinda like every Daily Driver I think about buying is RWD and can take an engine swap ;)

[ROUGE180]

wow.. thats wild.. must have taken a while to get that together. To each his own. On one hand its sweet in the sense that it's something that no one else was doing. It's not a ll jacked up and looking half a$$ed.

On the other hand. I would just buy a 350 and call it a day. Less work. Keep the 240 un molested (well sorta).

It sure is Conversation piece. I mean look at us. We started a thread over it so that company is great at marketing.

[inertiadrft]

looks ok, +1 for creativity -1 for time wasted..

[KRPS13DEMON]

i wonder if anyone could/has done the G35 front end ?

[firelizard]

Just doesn't flow. The front end just looks so detached, due to the fact that a)it's fucking huge
and b) there's like 3 inches of difference between the fenders and the doors.
I don't mind the rear much, even though I'm not really a conversion fan.

Doesn't bother me though, it's not like I finished my car, then they took it all apart and did that with it. Did that happen to anybody else? No? Then stop acting like it's the end of the world; call it ugly and leave it at that.

Dai is a crazy guy.......
