Nissan Vannette Slammed on JDS Z31 Wheels
This old school JDM Nissan Vannette in Japan is Slammed on a rare set of JDS Z31 Wheels. We actually did get this model Nissan Van here in the states for a few years, but it had a significant Recall due to them bursting up in flames. To see one stateside is a rae sight these days. – Nissan Vannette Slammed on JDS Z31 Wheels
Nissan Vannette Slammed on JDS Z31 Wheels
The Wheels are JDS Z31 wheels, these are holy grail wheels for late 80z Nissan Z cars. I think of them as the equivalent of Mugen M7’s for Z31’s. At initial look they look like stock Z31 turbo wheels, but at closer look they are multi piece, and this set is staggered. JDS stands for Japan Dasun Service, they are a company in japan specializing in Nissan and Datsun parts. – Nissan Vannette Slammed on JDS Z31 Wheels

This S30 240z comes to us all the way from Poland. It started as a beater car and underwent a full restoration… and then some. – Datsun 240z s30 on HRE 501 / Hayashi Racing 501 – JDM Wheels

The white and black theme is apparent on this Fairlady and works very well. Black bumpers and flares, and white front and rear spoilers give it a an aggressive look. –   Datsun 240z s30 on HRE 501 / Hayashi Racing 501 – JDM Wheels

Mitsubishi Starion GSR-III on 14×10 SSR MK III from Japan

Mitsubishi Starion GSR-III on 14x10 SSR MK III from Japan
When I think of the Mitsubishi Starion, I think of nicely bulging factory flared fenders and massive dished 16×9 jdm wheels. Here we have an early model Mitsubishi Starion with the skinny body. Although this Starion is a skinny body model, the owner fitted some nice 14×10 Rear, 14×8.5 front SSR MK III wheels in the fenders. – Mitsubishi Starion GSR-III on SSR MK III SSR MKIII
