How deep is your dish?
These SSR Mk I rims are the best fitted Mk I rims I’ve seen so far!
Shakotan Mark II SSR mk1
From this angle the wheel almost appears to be extending the bodywork!
Another picture from the side to see how low this car actually is:
Shakotan Mark II SSR mk1
This shakotan Toyota Mark II GX71 lowered so much is almost scrapping to the ground! Unfortunately no info on the dimensions of the wheels, but looking at the pictures they must be 14 inch and somewhere near the 10J width.
Exhaust of the week: fly over exhaust
We have no idea what the purpose is of this streamlined exhaust if you have such a big wing at the back of the car:
Fly over exhaust on Mark II
The exhaust looks like a fly over piping with its triple exhaust pipes.
It may be a bit uncomfortable for the passengers to get out on the passenger side of this car after driving this car for a while. I can imagine it will become something like limbo dancing to get out!
On the other hand you won’t get cold driving to the Tokyo Auto Salon meeting in January!

This week we have a Mark II with inside-out exhausts coming out of the side of the car:

And on the other side two pipes as well:

And another side exhaust from the left side
If you wonder why I said it was an inside-out exhaust? Well, simply because the exhaust is not coming from under the car, but from the inside of the car:
Exhaust coming right out of rear doors
Well, the rear doors couldn’t open anyway so it doesn’t matter the exhaust is going out from them. 😉

This week we have a bit of a weird picture: it is a picture taken with a digital camera of a dia-positive projected on a sheet of paper. Anyay, it shows a highway cruise with some zokushas. The front car is a GX71 Mark II Grande with a big star shaped exhaust:

The car behind the Mark II Grande looks like a Skyline C210 but the picture quality is so bad we can’t tell for sure…
Exhaust of the week: Buttigiri Mark II
The reason to post this image is because it is one of the few cars with an exhaust pointing forward:
Buttigiri Mark II with forward exhaust
Madness! Almost looks like a battleship this way!
