actually aren't bosozoku pretty heavily targetted by japanese police? I remember reading about police cracking down on em. But these meetings aren't exactly all about them, so I guess the cops don't mind.

i know japan is tight on space so you have got to think how the f**k can those guys in those vans find somewhere to park. id love to see them try to reverse parrallell park one of those on a busy street :P

evo lee are most of these cars with crazy mods street legal?? i would have thought that huge wheel arches that look like they are held on with sticky tape and bubble gum and oil coolers hung on the bumper using coathanger wire would not be legal

Nothing is legal in Japan :P just the cops don't bother with it...the rule is don't cause trouble and they will not bother you. By right if the arches were not on the factory car or not engineered, which means the wheels are infact sticking 2inches out of the guard...it's defectable.

As for driving around the streets...you will be surprised how well the truckies in Japan drive, I have seen a semi get through the back streets with precision, if a Aust truckie was to guage how close and tight he had to manoeuvre in Japan he will be saying "NO WAY can you get around that corner"...Japanese truckies will make him eat his words time after time.

Yeah, the term Bozosoku is a little misleading in the thread title. Usually people consider the bike gangs to be bozosoku, but like DaiOni said the term can be used in a derogatory way to refer to a wide range of car groups/cultures and fanatics :P

    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
    • Shimmed or shimless, still solid, no hydraulic pump up stuff.
    • They have said food will be limited. Mainly meat pies and sausage rolls from memory. But they have a coffee van!
    • Yea that's a fair assumption. I'm presuming they call them solid lifters as they have no moving parts like hydro lifters. 
    • I believe you're confusing WMI with water injection. Looking at that graph, the 93aki+WMI car is making more power than C16 race gas. Boost juice, which is what I also run, is Snow Performances 50/50 premix.
