Moi!
Moi! = Hi!
Greetings from Finland – from the land of thousand lakes!
My name is Henri. I'm 33 years old. I've been building cars in various styles over 10 years.
I drive Nissan Skyline GTR '94. It has a body conversion called Bee*R B324R, witch transforms R32 to R34 with a widebody.
I've loved VIP/Bippu style since I first saw them over 10 years a go. I just came back from Japan, visited Tokyo Auto Salon & some other hot shops...
Damn – when I hit Junction Produce's stand something in my head said, that this could be the next "new thing for me"... Aimgain, AME, G-Fine, Final Konnexion, Bold World & Work had some impressive rides as well.
Well, I decided to go in to the new direction with my car. It's not a "true" VIP style for some, but it's going to have som VIP flavor, that's for sure – it's going to be "sporty vip" or something like that, hah.
Just got a new set of wheels. More VIP style with Work Euroline DH's in 10x19". The nice negative offsets give 3" lips in front and 4,27" lips in the rear.
Have to see where this takes the ride to. Hope to start a build thread here soon ;)

It looks like a D1 car..does it actually see the track ever? I see no problems with adding some vip styling to it, but I'd really like to see you build an actual vip car. It would be interesting to see what you come up with. Have you thought about that??

Hi!
Yes it sees the track... It looks like D1 'cos the body kit is built for D1GP series drifters (www.bee-r.com).
More of track days in the BLOG. Just scroll down.
I wish I could afford a new project car. It would be something with 4 doors in a true VIP style. Well, just have to save up again...

Just promise me to never put this in your car again...haha. You do know what that means right?
If not, I'll explain. It's to indicate you're a new driver who just got their license and is a potential danger because they might not know what they're doing. It's a warning to other drivers to be careful around you since you're in your first year of driving a car. The other one you see that's orange/red like a tear drop is for old drivers..like senior citizens who might be a danger due to their slow reactions and age. So yah..that is one of the biggest errors made by JDM kids.
Other than that...I love what you've done with your build, but wouldn't have gone all graphics crazy..to me it hides too much of what's going on. Take your interior for example...it's brilliant. Super clean and classy. The exterior almost feels cheap in comparison due to the crazy graphics. They were applied well as far as placement..but I don't see the point for them to be so overstated. When I said it looked all D1..I meant the exterior, since the interior is all comfy cozy and not gutted. So basically I'm saying to pick a style.
To me, this would have been a good example on how to make the car stand out to match the interior and ice (yes, I know it's an R34, but just trying to get my view across), although I do like your wing more:

Yes. Of course I knew what it means. It's supposed to be a joke :biggthumpup: it's to scare people at the track days, lol
And yes, the graphics were done in the vary same D1-style ast the qenuine D1GP Bee*R's drifter had it's graphics. These were my sponsors last season. The car is under going some graphic removal soon.
The Real Deal – D1GP B324R. I visited Bee*R's factory bit over a month a go in Japan. This thing is killer!
