willz Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 can someone tell me the differences between the styles? I think I understand the Bosozoku are typically the elongated noses with the crazy pipes and widebody but I'm not familiar with what makes the rest of them those particular names...

willz Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 bozozoku - typically wide body, large nose wings, shark style hood Bippu - VIP? the rest kind of don't seem much different from what Ive google image"d Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 bozozoku - typically wide body, large nose wings, shark style hood Bippu - VIP? Those are correct. Kyusha - basically means (usually customized) vintage car Shakotan - basically means really low car Zokusha - Is similar to "Kaido Racer" style (http://www.speedhunters.com/2013/10/70s-street-fighter-imai-works-datsun-260z/) Some of these terms seem "redundant", and that's mostly because one car can fit in multiple categories, so...

willz Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 when I search "kaido racer" I get a fistful of what I thought were bozozoku cars.... ughhh I think I give up Quote Link to comment

q-tip Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 So you don't fit in a Datsun but want to buy a bug...... Quote Link to comment
OneFastRat Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 So you don't fit in a Datsun but want to buy a bug......Germans are big people. Japanese are not. My jetta looked small, but I had 2" of headroom. I've sat in a bug and fit perfectly. Tried at jccs with a 240z and I could sit in with my head touching the roof, but I couldn't get my knees under that steering wheel Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Germans are big people. Yes, yes we are Quote Link to comment
OneFastRat Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 Ah your German too! How cool Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 when I search "kaido racer" I get a fistful of what I thought were bozozoku cars.... Oddly, for some reason you can't just Google image search "kaido racer". It comes up with maybe 3 cars worthy of the title on the first 10+ pages... :rofl: It's kinda like... Cars that look like race cars but may not actually ever be raced. The styling is common among freeway racers in Japan though... Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 This car (repost strictly for demonstration purposes) also definitely has the kaido racer vibe... B) 2 Quote Link to comment
