Japanese Van Style

Post by **ralphsdiorama** » Thu Jul 30, 2009 5:56 am

Hey guys, I have quick question for you. I am working on a project for work and I am trying to find pictures of those vans with the huge body kits that have fins protruding from them and so on. Do any of you know what that specific style is called. Also, if you have any pics that would be great. Thanks!

Sorry, I meant to post this in general chat.

There is no real word for it. They just call it Vanning over there.

Perfect! I found all the pics I needed using the search term vanning. Thanks!

If you're talking about something like this VV, it's called "Bosozoku".

Hey, hows it going greg? Yea, I searched bosoku earlier and got an array of different styles. It seems that vanning is the term they use more specifically for the cars. By the way if anybody has any hi-res pics of these vans and wouldn't mind posting them, I would be very grateful. Thanks again

those things are crazy. They are still running around. Look like low-flying spaceships at night.

Those vans are crazy. I couldn't imagine seeing one out on the road at night.

Good, you? You need to have another meet asap, can't believe I missed the last one still.

Where in sams hell do they park those things at night.

Post by **themadscientist** » Thu Jul 30, 2009 10:59 pm

I'm still waiting to see one with warp nacelles on it.

Post by **HashiriyaS14** » Fri Jul 31, 2009 3:12 am

Yeah, definitely vanning zoku.

It is NOT the same thing as Boso at all.

Post by **eds13** » Fri Jul 31, 2009 6:47 am

i wish people would quit thinking they are the same thing

^^Yeah.

There are a lot of sub-styles that people call "Boso" that really aren't, also.

i.e. Shakotan, Yanky/Yankee, etc.

Ah come on TMS, it's Dekotora not Decotora.

How do you confuse Shakotan and Bosozoku? Yanky and Boso I can understand since they are kind of the same thing.

Mike - RE: That last YT vid... Do they actually drive those things around? No laws against all those damn lights?

Post by **ralphsdiorama** » Fri Jul 31, 2009 9:49 pm

Wow that is incredible. I wonder how many batteries it takes to run the light show on the van in the last video? How long do you think before extreme types of vanning such as those hit the states?

I'm sure it's against some sort of law but I have yet to see one get hassled for it. Some guys doll up little trucks like mine that way too.

I hope never, that's like ricing a car out only on steroids or maybe coke or meth those are more carnie drugs.

Yeah, because the lit-up dump trucks are dumb.

I would like to thank the dirty south dips***s for introducing my Japanese neighbors to donks.
