Mike_Mac Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 One thing I've always wondered - What is the point of putting that level of camber on the wheels? What is it meant to achieve? Is it just to look good, or is there some strange mechanical benefit behind knackering a set of tyres every few thousand miles while being totally unsafe on the road as you go? Finally, how can a car with that done to it's suspension geometry ever get through an MOT test? ETA - I see the Front Front Mounted Intercooler idea is back. No1BoyRacer will feel vindicated!

letmeshowyou Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 apart from the colour, I actually quite like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heyrick Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 ...and how does it get throught the MOT without wing mirrors and side indicators? Can't be safe with that small amount of rubber/road contact? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Wind about 15 degrees of the camber off, remove the stupid pipes and cooler and its pretty cool. Not that keen on the colour though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't it an oil cooler? Looks ridiculous with the pipes coming off it across the front of the car! Not cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seba Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 ...and how does it get throught the MOT without wing mirrors and side indicators? Can't be safe with that small amount of rubber/road contact? If you read the advert completely (i was so stupid, please don't do it, it's boring...) he says in the end the car is sold without MOT and it is not possible to get it trough MOT. Will only be sold for spareparts.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 its just a boso car. a style of car modification in japan. search for boso or bosozoku in google. iirc the whole intention is to modify the car to such an extent to cause agrovation to normal road goers, other car modders or the police. Sounds like fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethr Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Why would you do this? As a joke. "...the car was built just for a bit of fun to take to a car show we go to every year. We have not used it on any public roads since it was modified - only around the campsite and the showground... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJ Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Haters gonna hate, I think it's quite a funky little tribute to a Japanese scene, certainly a crowd puller at shows too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike_Mac Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Haters gonna hate, I think it's quite a funky little tribute to a Japanese scene, certainly a crowd puller at shows too. I wouldn't call it hate; apart from the wheels the rest of the looks I couldn't give a stuff about, as it's down to personal taste. I just don't see the point in making a car dangerous to drive and illegal on the road. Illegal on the road because it's set up for the track - I can understand. This? Nah!
