Don't you mean "real rice low riders"?

workin class · FINCH, ONT

NOT AT ALL some of the best kustom automotive craftsmanship to ever be presented to the human Race in my opinion.

Thats MUCH better!

Anyone know what this car is? I suspect its an old Japanese make...sure is wild looking with that chop and paint.

As for other Japanese makes, I'd sure like to have an old Datsun 510 or 1st gen Celica. Boy did those get scarce

hot rods are huge in Japan and they are not finding some old claped out car in a field.

just the cost of transporting them would be enough to put most of us off.

flatblack55delivery · PORT HOPE, ONT

Wow Slim what a cool video .Way more interesting seeing them rollen than sittin . Ed

I'm amazed that they can do that in Japan. We complain the emission laws are tough here, but in Japan, I heard that any engine with over 80000 km must be replaced with a new one.

BARRIE, ONTARIO

ha ha I axeually just watched the first vid now , I laffed thru most of it . Best part there all hitting the pipes , then one rolls thru all quiet with stock exhaust on it ha ha ..77.

slim · DUNDAS, ONT

Iv seen some posts on the hamb about japan and have no dought these guys are serious rodders. Im not shure of the laws but I can't imagine anything being cheap or easy.

This is what I've heard. My brother has a Mazda And it was cheaper to buy a used 80k replacement engine from an importer than it was to do cylinder head.

gogglespizomo · HAMILTON, ONT

50.000 kilometers,ive bought 3 of them now.

I have a Buddy that builds street legal dune buggys, and he picks up these engines in Toronto somewhere for dirt cheap. What happens is all the engines are put into a container and sent over here. In that container, there's engines that are not used in North America and that's what he uses. Specifically, he picks up the twin turbo Subaru engines(flat 4 cylinder) because they are not used here and the seller (I think it's Japan Auto Parts) just wants to get rid of them. I made a few adaptor plates for these to bolt up to Audi 5000 transmissions. When done, it's a nice small rear engined package that puts out well over 300 HP. Perfect for a buggy !!

The first vid is about an automotive 'lifestyle' called Bosozuko. The underlying philiosophy is to 'offend' traditional japanese values about being quiet and respectful. The cars are completely over the top, and they're not taken very seriously, even by the builders.

sasquatch · NORTH BAY, ONT

Got a couple of those Subaru Turbo flat fours around this area, and i can tell you they are no dog!!
Quick cars!!

You can also pick up some low mileage Japanese cars too (if you are into that sort of thing) I've seen some cool rhd old Toyota diesel landcruisers around.
