No it'll be great! I heard awhile ago there's a bosozoku style BMW somewhere around here. :lol: That'll be the day!
No, us Americans are going to completely ruin that car culture. we will make that car culture worse than it already is, if thats possible
 
Bentley Turbo R with a "Phantom" nose. Ugh.

Bosozoku is a bike culture...
I'm not going over this with you again.


Bosozoku was predominantly a bike gang/style/culture. The Bosozoku cars that spun off were different. They fell under the same subcultures as Gundam, Kaido, Shakotan or Zokusha style cars. They had nothing to do with the gang, other than being obnoxious.
 
I can't believe that truck even works. The transmission alone spans the entire length of the cab. the driveshaft must be like an inch long.
Built on a hacked up frame, usually with little or no suspension in the rear end, and with a heavy truck rear axle. The old jeep CJ derived ones the US airforce used had oil burner 4 bangers in them and would wheely pretty good if you had them rolling backwards first. Problem with them is the gearing. Pull down a whole forest at one go but redline at 12 mph. Pretty fun jumping on the throttle and going through all 3 gears within the first 10 feet

Well that's for pulling. If this one has a manual then oh my god it's god some stupid gearing lol.

If I had to guess, I'd say that the transmission output is connected directly to the axle.
 
Torn on this.

On one hand, if you go to so much effort that the original car is unrecognisable, why would you start with an Austin Maestro Van? But on the other hand, they shoehorned in a Rover V8.

@Danny I have little issue with it compared what the Chinese have done to dress up a Maestro in recent years.

The Rover V8 helps that thing's cause mightily however.

I'd be VERY interested in seeing how they set the drivetrain up in the radial truck... it rotates 90degrees to the driveshaft....
