Honestly, it was delicious. Kind of like beef but with a unique flavor. I've eaten a lot of raw things, but never horse before. Yummy stuff.

[Dousan_PG]

no its not
its the newer style of wings for 180sx and s13s as well as other cars
the wing is aftermarket

[WILDACEX187]

its nice. looks like it goes on stock mounting points no?

[Dousan_PG]

mm more likely..no
most aftermarket wings do not go in stock places...MOST. not all.

[WILDACEX187]

YESSSSSS was wondering when u was gonna have some new pics up on the site

[S14_Kouki]

Nice pictures. I was planning a trip down to Japan sometime this summer how is it down there at that time of year?

[Jcb890]

LOL at the Art Rounge.

so thats ueno's car huh? any specs. do alot of popular faces show up at these places?
His name is Ueno, but not the Ueno from D1. It's a pretty common name. Very friendly and humble guy. He gave me a ride in his car and I learned a lot from him. Crazy speed and entry angles.

Specs? Like what? It was all pretty basic, nothing too fancy. 8J front with 235/40 Neova and 9J rear with 235/45. Power Ent. PE1420 turbo at 1.1kg, about 340PS. Cusco bolt-in cage. Stock tie rods w/ add-on spacer. Mostly stock suspension arms, etc.

Nice pictures. I was planning a trip down to Japan sometime this summer how is it down there at that time of year?
Late July to August is unbearably hot, i.e. scream in agony and commit seppuku hot+humid, especially down in the southern Kyushu area. But June and early July is very nice.

Those night blooming flowers are awesome. My parents have a huge plant of it, and I think we got up to like 10 of them one night. I took a really good pic of one, but that's on my desktop at my apartment, and I'm at my parents' house right now.

Beatiful images, thanks for sharing.
