Taking The Lotus Emira To Japan's Best Touge!
Spent a week driving the new Lotus Emira and wanted to share with you guys what this car is all about. While it’s sad that the Elise and Exige are no more, the Emira is a step in the right direction for Lotus, setting the tone with this first version of the car. With 2 engine and transmission options I’m sure we’ll be seeing track focused versions in the future but for now this has given them a good presence in the sports car segment. Hit play and enjoy

Atsushi Kuroi's Legendary D1 S13 Onevia At Ebisu Touge Course
Переглядів 3,2 тис.Місяць тому
Was a bit of a special moment having the chance to revisit one of the most memorable cars from the golden era of D1. Atsushi Kuroi of River Side remains one of the best drivers in the series and probably would have ended up doing so many more amazing things had he not sadly passed away back in 2010 at 41 years old. Hoping you enjoy taking a causal look over his Onevia. Massive thanks to Andy at...
The RB26 Swapped VIP Drift Car You've Never Seen!
Переглядів 2,8 тис.Місяць тому
Starting life as a powerful street slash drift car, this Y34 Cima flaunts a nice mix of VIP and sports car style. I shot it years back when it was still red and now the owner has evolved it to be a more mature street slash show car. At the heart of it all is an RB27 swap with a KKK turbo helping boost power to well over 600 HP. Support the content on Patreon: patreon.com/dinodc SUBSCRIBE: bit.l...

Japan's Answer To Rolls Royce

You saw the N-Style Customs manual swapped V12 Century over on the main channel (Dino DC) during my tour of the workshop and here is my little quick review on it! This has to be one of the most unique cars I've driven this year. The Century of course is the only Japanese production car to ever be fitted with a V12 engine but Nagahama-san at N-Style wanted to go a bit crazy with it and thus drop...

My second visit to the Tema Collection turned out to be even better than the first time I dropped by late last year. That's because both the Pagani Huayra Roadster and the Koenigsegg Regera were both there but also because of some other additions that have joined. The owner's collection of movie props, merch and memorabilia blew me away once again, but not until I stepped into the room where he...

1 of 6 RHDs, only 80 (coupe convertibles) ever made. This CLK DTM cab drive was a pretty amazing experience, an unexpected opportunity that came up while I was in Jakarta last month. Hope you enjoy listening to that AMG supercharged 5.5L V8 as I give it the beans through the streets of PIK2 just outside Jakarta! Massive thanks to the owner for throwing me the keys!!

Welcome to OnlyDino. This is the sub-channel where you’ll find all my vlogs and more daily life related postings from what I get up to in Japan and abroad. The idea is to be able to agree more with you guys and keep the higher production value videos for the main channel, DinoDC. To kick things off this is a short vlog from a Friday night out in Shibuya back when Scott from Renown organized a m...

      Sorry I meant sports cars, as in the cars that they have always made. That EV SUV & sedan are marketing exercises done by its new Chinese owners. I’m sure they’ll do well, probably allow them to earn more so they can keep R&D going for the sports cars.

    15.7m is around a Cayman 718 GT4 but it genuinely looks like a super car vs. the Cayman being a classic Porsche body style.

  • @fritzmckellar1756

    Pretty car. A couple of somewhat negative thoughts about the Emira, both focused around the V6 engine. 1) As a GT/DD, who wants to hear a supercharger whine 100% of the time?!?! 2) who thought that metal canister (solenoid?) Visible in the engine bay (and through the back window if I recall) looks clean/quality? I would have much preferred to see a mild hybrid compliment the V6 vs a supercharger. Hopefully the inline turbo 4 is a little more focused, like the Alfa 4C...

    Couldn't stop smiling while watching this…some things about the car's setup though: During the very early days of d1gp, it was a regular 180sx with an sr, nothing special about it. In the early to mid 00s, kuroi ran an rb26, a very rare engine swap at the time, since only a handful of people could get the right suspension setup for this heavy (compared to the sr) engine. What's in the car now, ever since the mid to late 00s (and I guess its final form) is a 1,5 jz with about 600 HP, 150 HP less than the RB setup, but that never mattered since kuroi always drove this car like he stole it. His driving was so aggressive that tandems were hard to him when he had to chase. He was actually Kawabata's mentor. To my eyes he's still the best driver this motorsport has seen, his style was unique, no one has managed to surpass him, though a few have come close. Great video by the way.
