Friday video: pimped Mark II MX41
A walk around this black shakotan Mark II MX41 by its owner reveals that it has been pimped a bit with white leather seats and checkered carpets:
But apart from the SSR Mk II rims the bosozoku theme remains in the chin spoiler, tsurikawa and the huge (column) shifter.
Meeting monday
Japanese Nostalgic Car blog has a feature about the OneDay OldCar Festival in Shikoku with some very nice zokushas, like this Toyota Mark II MX41:

Unknown meeting with an unknown date, but with very well known cars:
Yes, that is one of the cars of Team Madonna! And as you can see they can still do what any other RWD car can do: do donuts! 😉
According to kiyotarouj the car is a Gloria Y30 with a 2 liter V6, so that must be the original VG20E engine.
Yes, the Toyota Mark II MX41 is indeed another well known car! Also the Fairlady Z S30 is a well known zokusha!
MX41 Chaser zokusha drifting on
Remember the Zokusha drift meeting? Well, the Toyota Chaser MX41 featuring in that video was caught in an AE86 focussed drifting session:
Enjoy over three minutes of almost endless tiresmoking! 🙂
And a second video of the same circuit during the rain (actually before the first video):
The Chaser did have an engine swap: the 2 liter 1M engine was swapped for a 1JZ-GTE. This gives the Chaser enough power to shake its tail all over this small circuit!
