Picture of the week: starsharked Japan
Only a picture of the nose of the car?
Well, do you need more than that? There is so much win in only the nose of this Skyline C211 Japan:
1. Oil cooler lines sticking out of the grille and going back into the bumper!
2. Super Silhouette-like hood fins
3. Star Sharks
4. Typical early-Eighties Advan front air dam
At the rear it is a bit less exciting:
Only an Advan boot spoiler and a tsurikawa. 😉

I hope they are deeper than this 10J wide SSR Star Shark rim at the JCCA NYM 2012:
It shows that 13 inch is nothing near being considered too small and the 225 wide Dunlops are stretched nicely. Also just look at the reflection in that dish! Beautiful!
How deep is your dish?
Sometimes I forget why deep dished rims look so great. Lucky enough I have people like Zeppann13J to remind me why by posting up some deep dished SSR Star Shark rims!
Zeppann: thanks for this Mortar (???) as you call it! 😉

BTW: did anyone manage to keep the Green Griffin as a wallpaper for more than one day? 😛

It was to be expected and Jin already predicted it: SSR is the most iconic wheel brand!
So, lets find out what product by SSR is the most iconic wheel then! I found this great old advertisement of SSR at beeoneoneoh:
I made an selection out of it:
SSR Mk. I
SSR Mk. II
SSR Mk. III
SSR Formula Mesh
SSR Longchamps XR4
SSR Jilba Racing (isn’t that just a solid Work Equipe?)
SSR F5
SSR Star Shark, which is not in the picture, so here it is:
There are some other rims by SSR, but they are either newer or so rare you will never see them on a zokusha!
