Introducing the Garage Sokudo SK14SPL S14 Silvia
After many years away from drifting, I really wanted to get back into it. But with S-chassis prices skyrocketing in Australia, I couldn’t bring myself to try a newer-generation chassis.

Up close and personal with the Kunny’z D1 JZX100 Chaser
Tucked away, surrounded by wheel boxes and stock, on the top floor of a parts store in Chiba lies the original Kunny’z JZX100 Chaser that competed in D1GP in the 2000s and remains there to this day. This is my personal favorite livery of all the Kunny’z D1 cars, and seeing it up close was…
