WHY DONT THEY MAKE INITIAL D IN THE MODERN ERA?
WHY IS JAPAN CAR CULTURE SO PUSSIFIED NOW
i remember when i was a kid
i would worship the show
DONT STOP THE MUSIC
WHAT HAPPENED?
THE MUSIC FUCKING STOPPED
because they literally put posts in the ground separating lanes on all mountain roads to stop street racing and drifting
>>14078292
wouldn't that just increase the death rate?
>>14078292
this is a lie
Because the original point of the series was a slice of life story that also included typical shonen 'overcoming the odds' stuff. It could have just as easily been roller skating or competitive parachuting instead of racing.
>>14078328
nope.
nope nope nope
Capeta, Over Rev
You are so wrong
You are so god damn wrong
>>14078328
>initial d
>shonen
EVERYTHING IS FWD
THATS WHY
>>14078325
It's not though. Sorry to break your anime dreams of street racing
Because no one gives a shit about some terrible and old anime japcrap piece of shit show.
Fuck off back to /a/ or /b/

EFF YOO

Depends on the road. Akina does not have any, Akagi does. There are still lots of good roads in Japan with no speed bumps or post in the ground.
>>14081286
Akina and Akagi aren't real mountains you know right you dimb weeaboo
>>14081300
They are based on real roads, and Akagi is a real mountain. Link

Those roads are nearly turn for turn what they are in the games/show. Some of the names are different though.

>WHY IS JAPAN CAR CULTURE SO PUSSIFIED NOW
The 90´s are over. Back then every japanese manufacturer had 2 or 3 sports/sporty cars.
In the 00´s they all killed the fun cars.
Today:
Mitsubishi is dead
Subaru is too small
Mazda has only a girls car
Honda deleted the fun (but its slowly coming back with ugly rsx and ctr)
Toyota is very very slowly coming back from grandma zone
Nissan is the only one who still holds up the flag (still no Silvia successor for poorfags)
>>14081316
>tfw can't run in the 90s
>>14078325
They also put these low speed bump style inserts on corners that you barely feel driving normally but will wreck your shit if you try drifting.
>>14081316
this is the darkest timeline
we are going towards orwellian future
society is turning to shit
everyone is dumb
even cars are taken away from us
>>14081316
>Nissan is the only one who still holds up the flag (still no Silvia successor for poorfags)
Daily reminder that the new Z-car is a CUV. So is the GT-R, for that matter.
>>14081366
>even cars are taken away from us
A fwd hatchbag with a 1.6 engine is more than enough to drive.
>>14081375
but its fwd and i cant afford it
someone post that ''I'll never be beaten by the rotary potatoes of akagi'' pic
>>14078478
>people don't realize these fwd posts are literally 1-3 people samefagging every thread
>>14078286
>WHY IS JAPAN CAR CULTURE SO PUSSIFIED NOW
Its psychology.
Kids growing up in the 80´s and 90´s have seen shitloads of very low wedge shaped fast looking coupe style cars.
Kids growing up since the 00´s see shitloads of potato shaped cars with 4 doors, very high engine bonnet and roof line and a hatchback.
>>14078286
>why is japan car culture so pussified now
its not, you're just a faggot
I almost wish they would make a futuristic Initial D with hovercars and shit
>>14081538
boring
>>14081316

>holding up
nigga, everything is a FWD CVT crossover, even the new Z is going to be a SUV

>Initial D gets a contemporary reboot
>Takahashi brothers roll around in 2025 Mazda plug-in hybrids
>Kyoichi Sudo and his team all dedicate themselves to using different variants of the Tesla Model S
>And one day, Takumi Fujiwara is coming home from his tofu delivery run in a 2010 Nissan Leaf (modified without his knowledge by his father to be RWD)...
>Weebs go on to irrationally worship the Nissan Leaf like it's the automotive second coming of Jesus

oh shut up
>>14078292
Not where I live. Where are you at that is run by socialism?
>>14084911
oh my god dude

PLAYING MUSIC IN MY HEAD TONIGHT
DON'T YOU BREAK MY HEART AND NEVER LEAVE ME
DANCE THE NIGHT AWAY

Other than the GTR, I wouldn't buy a single Nissan available right now.
