Japanese Classic Car Show 2008

[moedizzle]

All I have to say is WOW! Hands down the best show I have attended. If any of you missed it this year, you really should try to make it next year. For more coverage of the show and bigger pics you can go to my flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/emiv/

I kicked myself for not attending the past 3 years when the show was held 10 minutes from my house. Now im going to make it every year.

Atleast your in cali.. -_-

I'm coming to LBC this summer to visit my friend Rayn though, hes a primie on here too.. "sileightyfreak" or something on here.

Moedizzle, Thanks for the pics!

[adrians_s13]

well, for the past years, they've always had it at Queen Mary... which of course is in my home town.

This was the first time that they held it in Irvine...

Anyone know if Jay Leno or Adam Corolla showed up this year? if so, what cars did they bring?

[moedizzle]

Jay Leno was there. I took a pic of him while he was being interviewed next to his Honda roadster. As soon as he finished the interview he left the show so I didn't have a chance to take a clear picture of his car. As for Adam, I did not see him at the show.

they let crx register for the show? they must be really loose with restrictions

[moedizzle]

The flyer said 1985 and older, but they were loose with restrictions because they even allowed a 240sx hatch in the show and a few other late 80's cars.

[ericcastro]

looks like some better cars than the last couple years.
Or at least I should say, newer cars I havent seen around the circuit before.

cool

Didn't get as many pictures as I would have liked since my BF took off with my camera the whole day.

Jay was there, I couldn't get good pictures of his car either since everyone was crowding around it. Its funny cuz I yank my camera back and got four shots and in each shot there is always something covering his eyes. Lol

The car was freakin clean. Out of all the cars at the show the old hondas were probably the most expensive ones out there, too bad they didn't get as much recognition as the others.


And I leave you with a few engine shots:

BTW Jay Leno is way to big for that car !!!LOL

[RacerfreakXXX]

some guy by me has a chromed out 240z and i creamed my pants the first time I heard/ saw/ raced it

[moedizzle]

I've added the picture I have of Jay Leno to the thread. He was really kool though. Answering many questions from the crowd and taking many pictures with fans.

[nismo racer]

[wgJoY]

oh snap that was in irvine? wow goddamn it. Those are some seriously tight looking cars. maybe next year ><

[SilviaDoctrine]

AHHH I missed it!!! I really wanted to go! Maybe next year! I love the old school skylines!

[vodka2]

[1994Boy]

Talked to the owner of that car
claimed he was pumping 20lbs of boost... on silicon couplers !??
right
Now I now where all the KAs are going and why they're so expensive nowadays

they let crx register for the show? they must be really loose with restrictions

The SRd 240 and those integras seriously had me going WTF?
There were nicer more worthy cars parked outside.

very nice :D

some guy by me has a chromed out 240z and i creamed my pants the first time I heard/ saw/ raced it

Lately I've been wanting an S30 so bad...


it was funny talking to many of those 510 owners with KAs and SRs
and knowing more about their motors than them.
