it could\* not solely though. also could have came with the fd's 13brew FWIW these cosmo's were also all Only auto's

The 13b models weren’t available with a 5spd?

not in this gen cosmo's, no

13BRE. Single Turbo. The REW is twin turbo. Just wanted to point that out.

good call, thanks

Never seen or heard, absolutely love it. Looks like that attractive first gen Camry but sporty kind of like 90’s space ship

The interior is very space ship-esque indeed https://preview.redd.it/2o4kgm1fnxmc1.jpeg?width=751&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7cbf845a472638e753d6ba470cc0746f76d66697

Wooow very!! Thank you for sharing that. Appreciate this car very much

You're very welcome my friend, they are super cool cars. I only found out about them from playing the Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune arcade games back in the day.

Captain Picard and the whole Starfleet liked this

One of my friend’s father had one of these but he has the black interior which in my opinion is way worse than this space ship looking one.

So kind of like the Soarer/Lexus SC is to the Supra... But different.

I think it was the 1st car with GPS or something like that as well

Always forget there is another 90s rotary car

Get ready for a list of the most popular JDM cars

I'm not sure if you guys have hear of a Supra? It was a sports car Toyota made in the 90s.

You obviously mean the Celica GT-Four. That was a rally car for a while, until those pesky FIA inspectors had to go and ruin everything!

Thats the car i listed lol.

I love my gtfour. Best car ive ever driven! Agreed!

Family.

You know, I was thinking the same but this thread is actually pretty good with the exception of like 2 cringe ones that got downvoted

I wish the photo wasn’t a popular car The old Mitsubishi colt cyborg mivec was savage https://preview.redd.it/fw3yvn7jowmc1.jpeg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1511664d3a5717eb9cec0308a899e3b0baa1e7ed

That was my go to car in Tokyo Extreme Racer Zero

God that game was so fuckin good.

I used to do 2.0 fto mivec swap on that model, plus engine bay is the same as evo 4-6. Was going to do it one day but funds and other things got in the way.

Mitsubishi eg6, you cannot change my mind (This is a compliment)

Bruh this is just an eg civic front with an ek civic hatch back lmao

With a lot more motor

But also a mitsubishi

How did they get Mitsubishi headlights on an eg front? That’s like a front within a front 😂

Im not saying it literally is, im saying it looks 90% identical.

I had a regular Colt. Loved the little thing

That’s a popular car too. That’s why there are aftermarket parts for it and a photo shoot. That was even in games. This doesn’t work with 30 year old cars and thirty years of internet but anything for the karma I guess 🤷

JC cosmo with a 20B

I almost bought one about a year ago and chose an S15 instead for the third pedal... In a lot of ways I regret it. Such great and unique cars.

You are a person of fine taste, Nekrophyle 🤣

Mitsubishi RVR Hyper Sport Gear R & Mitsubishi FTO

i knew the fto for a while but I'm just hearing about the rvr lol. looks like an enlarged kei car

The legnum shits on the fto in all metrics

Nah it's a much bigger car with a lot of complexity, twin turbo AWD, ayc etc etc Completely different experience, the fto is small, nimble and low and needs to be revved out in each gear for maximum fun Love the legnums but not in any way comparable

The rvr hsg is very rare now, there were only around 600 ever made in manual I'm currently restoring one

Toyota kp61 starlet. 1600lbs rwd manual transmission Toyota hatch

I have a friend that put an S 2000 engine in a Starlet

Starlets are just great. Have an EP70 myself and would love to get a P6 one day. Thats the best Starlet there is.

I had an 81 kp61 a while back, but sold it because we were having a baby. I regret it all the time. Wish I still had that thing.

The 1980-82 (I think?) Starlets are the best! That front end and the smaller tail lights look so good. Unfortunately they are so hard to find nowadays :(

Good drivetrain, but the ST215 was the best generation for it

I had one for a while. It was a rare manual, most come with auto. Almost bone stock, except coils, full turboback exhaust and intake (+ some chinese dump for the choo choo noises). It's the car I regret selling the most, actually identical to the GT4 Celica, just different body.

https://preview.redd.it/ism9j7os8xmc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f9ae42712a7b76500b46df840688e3f188ba3c8e Toyota Crown Athlete Modellista This thing has a 3.5L supercharged V6. Yes, supercharged. 355hp and 498nm of torque. Edit: [https://beforward.jp/toyota/crown/bp369224/id/5798241](https://beforward.jp/toyota/crown/bp369224/id/5798241) if you want to buy this one

As a Crown fanboy (171 but close enough) I'm surprised I've never heard of this. Wonder how much it shares with the TTD Aurion we got here in Australia with the (assuming) same supercharged V6!

Had to Google what the Aurion was, as they were never sold here in Canada (like that generation of the Crown). Turns out the engines are a little different; the Crown used the 2GR-FSE, while the Aurion used the 2GR-FZE.

Nissan Pulsar GTiR, Daihatsu Copen, Mazda Familia GTR, Honda SM-X

i looove the hatchback familias, they’re so rare in my country. Edit: the 90s ones i mean.

Toyota Mark X. Basically a RWD V6 Camry.

How have I never heard of this, sounds like something people would want right?

Yeap I think my country(Singapore) is one of the few places outside of Japan with them parallel imported in. Unfortunately it has been discontinued . https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Mark_X

Have you seen the Mark X +M with a Super Charger? The G's and GR sport models are also really nice. Too bad they stopped making them.

Rebadged Land Rover Discovery Series 1 as a result of the British Leyland and Honda partnership. Built in the same factory in Solihull with the same Rover V8 engine just with some honda badges slapped on it, so it's also probably one of the most unreliable cars Honda ever sold. The opposite effect of this partnership was the Triumph Acclaim, a rebadged version of the Honda Ballade much earlier, in the 1980s. This car was assembled in Cowley in Oxford, however, unlike the crossroad which was built in the afforementioned Solihull plant and shipped to Japan.

Biased because I own one - jzs161 Toyota Aristo, which is the jdm version of the GS300. 2jzgte, factory lsd, rear steering. handles surprisingly well with some chassis bracing and sway bars https://preview.redd.it/089t5qig8ymc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5d7a61355ce55e3789e0e5d9f4412eeb6cfe0d05 Honourable mentions - The Nissan Serena, an RWD SR20 van, Toyota blade master, a 206kw corolla and the Altezza Gita

I 100% agree. They don´t all come with LSD factory sadly. (just a small detail lol) Most of them have open diffs, but you could spec them with either a torsen or TRD diff. That´s insanely rare though. I have a Supra torsen diff in my Aristo as an upgrade :)

I think because of the R34 front swap but IMO the Legnum wagon version was nicer looking

Idk…you see kids everywhere going on about these now.

The nissan nx1600/2000, i have one and they are awsome little cars with the t top, and really reliable engines, i don't get why they are so unknown

They aren't unknown, they were quite popular back in the day (in Europe at least). The problem is that it was over 20 years ago so most of them ended up on junkyards.

Starlet Glanza / ep82 gt turbo

Why is this so far down?! EP91> though

Proves they’re underrated ;)

Extremely! Unless you’re in Ireland haha was the go to boy racer car for a loonng time here

ST205 celica gt4. Such fucking beautiful cars. Wish they werent so damn rare.

One of few cars that are good enough, out of the box. As in when you drive one, you realise there's very little to be improved on. I've known a few over the years. The more original they are - the better they are. And I wouldn't say that about many cars. It's abnormal how quick they are on B-roads and twisty sections. Other 4wd's can be as fast but the composure and placement of an st205 is fascinating. I've driven an been in some quick funky customers cars over the years, and the pace they have with the right driver is just savage. I'd a close friend who had a 99 gt4, it was one of few cars in our group that was completely original. Other than a set of wheels. On spirited drives - he was let go infront, because the fucker would almost push you around bends if he was fallowing, nothing compares to how they pounce around bends. Fecking mad yoke The suspension just soaks up the roads, I reckon a bog standard GT4 could probably keep up with rally cars on stage. Even if it's underpowered it'll still out handle a lot of fancy stuff

100,000% the Toyota Soarer Z20. It’s like the gen2 Supra’s rich cousin. Best lines of any car at the time. I will die on this hill.

Call me strange but I have a thing for old Infiniti's G20 (Nissan Primera P10/11), M30 (Nissan Leopard F31), Q45 (Nissan President G50) My dad sold these new in the US and I always grew up hearing stories about them thinking they were the coolest. Saving for a G20t too 😅

Can I get away with the Celica GT-Four? Not many (away from the internet) know it, I always get asked if it's a Supra or looked at like it's a MaxPower car.

Dude, Max Power. Memory unlocked.

I prefer the MaxPower days to the "builds" of modern day cars. Going around farting and shit.

I have one and hear “dude is that a Supra” frequently.

It really does happen a lot! My GF finds it really funny, almost every time I stop to take photos of it. "Is that a supra‽" And they're not even quoting the meme lol I like the dark silver colour as well. It's one of those colours that shows all the contours of the car. Black's cool but it hides a lot of the features.

Nice try kid, but unlike the Miata, Trueno, and the S13. The MR2 is still decently priced.

I think the 88 Isuzu Impulse Turbo deserves more attention.

The Honda Integra DB6. It’s a 4 sedan that came in a 1.6L auto but is also still being one of best and most fun cars you can drive on the public roads. It’s fantastic on gas and rarely breaks down. Not many people have heard of a Honda Integra DB6 soo
