the 80's jdm style - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

the_one · 06-08-2005, 10:32 AM

Does anyone have pictures of modified jdm cars from the 80s/early 90s? I mean like pictures from old option mags and whatnot. I am looking for any pictures (or vidoes) of modified cars in japan during the 80s/early 90s. I'm just interested in seeing what was in style back then.

Var · 06-08-2005, 10:35 AM

just look for a do-luck body kit and you'll see

everyone hates it but i think it looks damn nice 80's style

maybe i'm wrong.,..but the silvia kit looks so 80's to me. HAWTness

That's not really 80s and 90s style... That's boro-style.

Back in the early to mid 90s (don't know 80s), the popular look was mostly stock actually. Body kits and stuff weren't that big a thing. Factory aero maybe, lowered with some wheels and exhaust. Even the Veilside kits were really tame.

Yeah.. that's the word I was looking for.
bosozoku = "street gang" style
borro = "junk"

Some of those VIP cars are sick as hell. I wish it went back to the days of stock instead of over exagerated bawdy kits and stuff, they aren't so bad on 240's right now but with the growing popularity of them and the three special letters "J-D-M" cars are going to be ruined.

HyperTek · 06-08-2005, 12:41 PM

crap like this

I dont even want to look at what 240s looked like in the 90s... crap nasty without the japanese market influence.

HyperTek · 06-08-2005, 12:46 PM

lets not forget these..

JtWo · 06-09-2005, 12:45 AM

Doesn't bosozuku only apply for the bikes?

Yes. I believe Yankee Style is in reference to the cars.

You can call the bike retards Bosozoku and Yankee..and it goes the same way for cars...

Bo -Violent in this case loud and maybe violent
So - Run, or drive in this case
Zoku - Means Group

Thats your class for the day

I like most of the cars posted in this thread. Nice subtle body mods. I wish they still sold some of this stuff. Not everyone wants huge gaudy kouki-style kits.

Tygma · 06-12-2005, 02:16 AM

I agree completely.. small diameter wheels, subtle to no body kits and slammed (for the most part)

drift freaq · 06-12-2005, 02:57 AM

well I know back in the late 70's early 80's the hot deal with Fairlady Z's aka 240Z's which actually stayed the same body from 1970 to 1978 was to put Ken Mary Skyline round tails on cause the panel fit almost perfectly in place of the stock Fairlady tail panel. hehehhehehhe and later you would see guys putting Oneline tails aka modded R32 tails on the 180sx till the kouki model came out. History repeats itself, hahahhaha.
They also stuck G noses on, which came off the Fairlady ZG. It was actually a quite rare car, that came out in 1970, specifically setup for Japanese racing with factory fender flares , G nose front end ( looks like a Ferrari Daytona front end) short tail rear spoiler, S20 engine, that also came in the 1972 Skyline GTR, ( 2 liter 6 cylinder,twin cam, triple solex engine putting out 175HP at 7500 rpm). With a 5 spead gearbox and clutch pack R180 limited slip differential, 500 of these babies were made. Have fun even trying to find one today even in Japan.

chlatboy · 06-12-2005, 03:55 AM

Well since our s13 240s came out in 89. You really cant show much of a JDM style. Lets bring out the oldies 240z 280z and 300zx. Or a Cefiro or somethin!!

Tygma · 06-13-2005, 01:57 AM

..and dont forget skylines!

Fastback180 · 06-13-2005, 11:26 AM

not forgotten...

I have a Japanese matchbox car of the Tomica R30...

Holler at your boy

Rich_S14 · 06-21-2005, 08:08 AM

I couldn't find any good 80's style modded cars. Here's an S12 Silvia/Gazelle/200SX though:

This isn't 80's style, but it's the cleanest looking S12 I've seen. Found it on someone's Cardomain (not sure where they found it)

zenkiDori · 06-21-2005, 05:42 PM

here's a model of an FC 80's style:

Well you guys aren't getting the real classics
This is like the states 1968 396 Chevelle SS to Japan

Skyline 2000 GTR

everyone still drives all the 1990's cars here...
