i just love how a car tunning anime sits in its own universe giving machines form just with passion and not with technology, like using a ratchet alone can fix body work
No I'm right there with you I'm pretty good at figuring anime shows out but this got me lost i thought the guy who bought the gtr an lost his gal an kid was the owner of the devil z an now the new guy comes in which looks like the girls brother who was racing the blackbird that died wtf going on here
Tbh they should’ve just continued at Akio, Tatsuya, Reina and the Photographer guy instead of throwing in random characters that have somehow became main characters.
That defeats the point of the show though because the whole thing about Wangan Midnight is about people encountering the Devil Z and pretty much get a life lesson out of it. That's why we get new characters introduced.
lmao. the aftermarket for a z31........ the z31 isnt the only one with the engine and if you are not american you have high chances of finding many fitting aftermarket parts for another car with the same engine and other parts.
He probably used VG30DETT tuning parts in and on the VG30DET engine. Stateside, JE makes forged pistons for VG series, and I googled that in 4 seconds flat, and if you couldnt find that in one freaking year... If you just sit there and go "maaah cant do it, maaaaaaah cant do it" then you'll be doing well to maintain and keep the engine in good shape just as it is (which is what you've been doing I suppose).
Thanks a bunch dude, been looking for the whole seires all arounf youtube n couldnt findm til i came across your channel, clear and complete :) thanks again!
Same feeling here. Maybe like how Akio feels as to fixing up and driving the Devil Z hahahaha Initial D is great on its own, except maybe for the fifth stage. Wangan Midnight, despite having only 26 episodes, is also great on its own. They can't be compared to each other and both of them are quite addicting to watch.
seriously dude...!!! Akio's love and dedication for that Z is commendable. If I were in his place I would've simply given up and would have started to search for a new set of wheels... something like a Supra, NSX, GTR etc. but he is still determined to bring that dead Z back to life.
Ain't that the truth. I had some jackass hit my rb25 swapped S13 and put me into the guard rail late last year. Could've reshelled the running gear, but having built her up since i first got my license, i have been fixing it up as it was. Still got a month or two to go until i am done, but it'll all be worth it.
Right? It's not even like it's a one of a kind collectors car, it's a 240Z. He's in Japan, godammit, he could probably find a lot of 240Z to start over. Only way for this whole stupid series to make sense is if the car really is possessed and mind controls people.
@@matheusmoreira9951To be fair, in current times, a 240z is not common to go by in Japan. Maybe back then in the 90's where the manga is written, it was slightly much more but now times have changed.
@@jmdriftboy I'd never heard of that series before but it looks kind of cool and they're all on RUclips so I'll be checking it out. Thanks for the suggestion.
I’m really confused on what happened between episode 6 and now ...is it 3 Year’s later ...how did he crash the z? ....is this what happened before the first 6 episodes ? 😩
Holy crap.. I am confused as hell... I got it that the sister is in England and her brother the original owner? Died in the Devil Z, then another Akio with the same name no relation bought the car.. and wrecked it a few times... and with episode 8 looks like they all went out and he crashed it big time.. so it must be the same Akio (No relation to chick in England). Now he is trying once more to fix it.. and understand the metallurgy of it all.
I bet if you make a picture with the cast of this show you'll get 4 akios and you wont even know where the fourth one was from but it was the stunt double for the three others.
why didnt they just reshell the z? they could have used all the parts and running gear. That body is beyond repair. Remove the rust and strenghten the new body and start wrenching.
That's because it's supposed to not be like Initial D. They're two completely different series. Initial D is more about drift racing and character development Wangan Midnight is more about the relationships between the racer and the car and how the car has a bad omen
James S. Not trying to argue, just confused. How are they also able to use the model names of the cars? I have heard them call the GT-Rs “R’s” and the 240 is known as the “Devil Z”.
They fucked up the characters. Many new ones in a single episode and they look alike. And I have a problem remembering names so it gets more and more difficult to follow
Wait... he bought a GTR costing him his soon to be family to beat the Devilz but now he's going to fix the devilz? So does he own both cars? How much money does this guy make?
Why don’t this guy just buy a Tesla Roadster or whatever it’s called since he makes so much money to build two cars from just working in a mechanic shop , restaurant
Firstly, to car people, they treat their cars as if it were a sentient being due to their love for their own respective cars Secondly, the Devil Z is rumored to have a bad omen, as if it's cursed. But Akio loves it a lot and said that the Devil Z is accepting him as its owner(stated in previous episodes)
Now we have Akio, Akio's twin brother, and Akios look alike younger brother. Shit I keep confusing the them with each other
lmao me too

The diffrence between Akio and Takumi is that one blows up the engine but doesnt fuck up his car and the other fucks up his car but not the engine
yes haha
So now there is 2 Takumi's and a Takumi jr?

"I can get to 320, but it's a bit slow around 280" these people are insane.
Thomas Ning he meant the acceleration goes down at 280.
