I don`t have a specific drive at the moment but the family mover is a Nissan Elgrand.Recently sold my 500HP FD3S RX-7 and figuring out what to drive next.Drifting is big here and have become involved in that a little as well.Whatever it is, the smell of racing fuel, sound of a high revving engine and speed is all I require 
Looking forward to browsing the site and awesome to see lots of V8.Nostalgia!

Stephen. Thanks for the compliments on the site. We really enjoy what we do.
Holden/GM is what I was brought up around also. Just can't beat that SBC.
Yeah, the Japanese streets are a bit too small for the V8s, but you got to love the styling on the Japanese domestic cars. They all look like they are from the 60's. I remember most of them looking like GTO's and Barracudas but shrunk down with mirrors stuck way out on the fenders.
Good to have you here. If you can take some pictures of the current Domestic Japanese cars and post them, that would be great. It's a lot of fun to see how retro the styling is on some of the daily drivers they have.
