Initial D Roads (in real)
 
Saw Daggernite got his own topic with little pictures of Initial D roads in reallife (Japan) :
http://www.motorworld.net/forum/show...ighlight=japan everything with this site ok, but pictures are too small , as for me ,It's not enough ;/

So I decided to post one more site with tons of Japanese mountain road pictures from Initial D anime :D hope this isn't repost link or smth.

LINK : http://www.h2.dion.ne.jp/~eg9/gallery.htm :D

thanks for the link,the bigger pics are great.i was lookin at the c-121 corner at usui and man that corner looks awesome,if anyone can drift that around completely in a race id be surprised.i wonder how many races these passes have seen?

i was also thinkin about the other places in initial D like the gas station they work at,is that real?

believe you wouldn't want to live in Japan if you already live in the U.S.

Daggernite 08-18-2004 05:03 PM

Cool these pics are great. I so wanna have a drive on these roads. You also gotta respect InitialD fors recreated the roads, there so alike.

that lucky bastard such a nice RX7

gis 08-18-2004 06:11 PM

yeah i gotta say as daggernite pointed out,gotta giv credit for recreating the roads and not just at one point or location either.

Daggernite 08-18-2004 06:21 PM

I was looking at some garages that had RX-7's for sale around my area, and I found some imported ones, twin turbos, new body kits, 70K miles, for only 5000quid :shock: aint that good?

gis 08-18-2004 07:08 PM

yeah there is a couple flyin around were i live,a red and a black one,i found 2 others for sale in auto trader last week,both twin turbo FD's with 50k miles and it was £7500,we would probably pay that again for insurance,lol

topgeartom 08-18-2004 07:14 PM

if your looking for jap imports this place is about a 5 minute walk from my house. Not too far from huddersfield either. They dont have an rx7 in at the moment, but put it in your favourites and keep checking back. The do have a stunning skyline with flip orange paint however - it look way better in real life than it does on the pictures tho.

gis 08-18-2004 07:17 PM

if i could afford insurance on one jap car i would have a supra by now but nope,insurance just fucks u over.i wouldnt mind an RX7 though,an FD,should be sweet.ah well,roll on 21 so i can move from my VTR to a VTS

Daggernite 08-18-2004 07:23 PM

I would so llike a RX-7 think I'd give a skyline a miss tho, and as for insurance, well it just so sux dont it :( I did have a plan tho, there are these storage building which are quiet big, which are been rented out at 50 quid a week, I was think of saving for a car (rx-7) like that and keeping it in one of them. But then I realised I could'nt drive it, I could just staire at it :(

But I'm surprised at how cheap the RX-7's are, the FC's are under 2grand in some places. :shock:

gis 08-18-2004 07:32 PM

yeah the RX7's FD and FC are quite cheap now.supras the mk4 TT versions anyway are still the £10000 area still.i was lookin at impreza WRX in a couple years but when i got an insurance quote of £5145 for the year i thought otherwise

SilviaEvo 08-18-2004 07:35 PM

FD's are usually around 15K around here so buying one is basically out of the question for me because on top of it being a used car and may have some problems insurance is quite high in the states

Daggernite 08-18-2004 07:57 PM
