Felt like I need to share this here. Come on... this man is an absolute legend. I don't think anyone went this fast on the UK motorway. Also, I've not seen much on any JDM related threads on TSR. So, i thought i'd start one maybe? lol anyone here interested into JDM culture?

Hey Kavin!!
Nice to meet you too!
You're a fellow JDM fan so you're instantly awesome! :biggrin:
It's my dream car! :biggrin: indeed me too! I'm amazed that the rotary only has 3 moving parts! Incredible!
Hopefully getting an RX8 as my second car too! :biggrin:

Those are some awesome cars!
What order would you put those in? I'm curious to know your overall favourite JDM monster! :biggrin:
And fav manufacturer!

Mines Mazda if you hadn't already guessed

Ah nice!
Very nice indeed!
It's good that you stick with one choice! :smile:

Nothing JDM haha!
As a first car I got a Fiat Grande Punto 1.2. It's cheap to run but really has no power at all!
Can't wait until May next year when I can upgrade! :biggrin:

Do you drive?

Once I get it I'd like to mod it a little.
I saw a video about some Japanese drifters trying out some tuned RX8's (2 of them and a stock one)
One of them had a turbo and suspension/brake upgrades and was a super handling car with decent power!
I'd like to have something similar to that really!
But I wanna save up for an FD RX7 so Ill probably leave it stock

RX8 already have a decent amount of power. it's just a matter of having the right suspensions (Coil-overs maybe?) and overall weight and brakes. But they'll probably will cost quite a lot. Probably more than what the cars worth, I think. FD RX7 can go around 10K, so not too expensive. But I think I prefer the FC. Particularly, this one :
