Excessively modified G50 in Japan (WTF?)

[Raxephon]

I found the link to this on a vip car forum that thejapino suggested I check out.

I'm at a loss for words, hence I'll leave the opinions to my fellow Niconauts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...lated

WTF?

Discuss.

OOoo, nice chiney red vinyl, mang!

Wow, I can't say that I like it, but whew, amazing bodywork.

[BMAR240SX]

Are you serious

[captainluigi]

[Denver90Q]

Just shows that bad taste knows no borders.

[ddrumman]

For what it is, it seems well done, but can't say for sure without getting much closer than the video allows.

I do like the old school Phoenix Gold amps.

Couldn't see any reason for the ducts/scoops in the hood, except for the one by the air filter.

Conceptually, it reminds me of of the Mako Shark Corvettes.

Beyond bad. I bet it weighs at least 800 lbs over stock.

Too bad he couldn't stick to clay.

I saw that car a month or so ago on youtube and I love it! Work like that makes a car truly unique and it goes to show how much passion was put into the car. You people here will obviously never appreciate anything the Japanese do to their cars so I really wish this was never posted. NICO has too many OEM whores to understand this kind of beauty.

Wow. I couldn't even tell it was a Q until they opened the hood. I liked the way the engine bay had been detailed. You can certainly tell he's had LOTS of hours working on it and for a custom car it's pretty cool. I liked the tail pipes too. I thought the guages were cool. I wouldn't want it, but I can appreciate it.

My wife just rolled her eyes and said she loves me.

Wives-gotta love 'em. My wife says almost the same thing and then says that she glad I've my friends (Nico) to share this with.

You guys are lucky, mine rolls her eyes, gives an audible sigh, and says, "Are you looking at that Q site AGAIN?"

She was less than thrilled when I was watching random youtube Q videos on the big TV last night...

I'm sorry but the minute someone adds a rubber phallus to their car its going a little beyond non-oem.

I am doing/ will do / have done many non-oem mods to my cars and not once did I feel the need to add a rubber phallus anywhere inside or outside of the vehicle.

[Rex]

I thought that's what I saw on the pass door panel, but wasn't sure.

I now finally understand the whole VIP window curtains fetish!!!! Guess the tassles are used as french ticklers? Damn underground!!!

[LongBeachQ45]

That was a pretty awesome looking spaceship!! I was into the gauges though, but couldn't tell what they were all for.

[Woot!]

From the body I can't see any Q in that car. I wonder if the radiator cap is still original

[jamesmost]

sweet grill. amazing workmanship

You do know the history behind VIP right?

Yakuza bosses began to use powerful domestic luxury saloons as transport to avoid calling attention to themselves with European ones. That way they could travel unnoticed by the authorities and be able to take flight quickly should the need arise. (Hence the big V8) The idea was to keep the outside low key with subtle stylings and furnish the interior with luxurious amenities. The curtains were for privacy.

After much admiration, the modifications came be called VIP (pronounced "vip" as is "blip", or more commonly known in Japan as "bippu") and were adopted by tuners and customizers. As with any trend, it bagan to grow and the styling became more and more extravagant. Now there are two camps under the umbrella of bippu. The more conservative EXE (Executive) styling camp, which focuses less on excessive camber and is more reserved in exterior styling and the VIP (Mostly Cimas, Aristos, Celsiors, and F50 Presidents) which focuses on large wheels, stretched tires, wide bodykits, and extreme lowering.

Both sides however, focus almost equally on interior comfort.

I myself, am a part of the more conservative side because I like to drive fast. The negative cambering wouldn't benefit me. Possibly if I had a show car that I didn't drive as quickly, I'd consider the more liberal stylings.

When my ducks are all in a row, I plan to have a nice EXE President with my NICO ECU and possibly a sijoko-built turbo.

I took my notebook to the studio last night and the engineer saw the JDM President on my wallpaper. He thought it was a Jag at first, but then I told him it was what the Q45 should have looked like here. I brought up the point that Wes made about NIssan selling the Q45 under the Nissan name and the President under the Infiniti name here. My engineer friend agreed wholeheartedly.

[oldmako]

Does anyone have the Infiniti part number for that rubber dildo? It's OEM right??? Cuz I can't imagine installing an aftermarket phallus! I mean, what if you're driving down the road and it fails!

And when it's installed, does it require dielectric grease or other??? KY perhaps?Does it tap into the doors electrics (windows,locks etc?) Or is it battery operated?? It's hard to believe that in 30ish years of driving that I've never owned a car with a d!ck-in-the-door.

Turning Japanese I don't think so....

[gammer_ghn]
