    Yes those celica gt-s's are actually pretty sweet
    Buddy's mom had one like 15 years ago when we were just getting our drivers licenses.
    I remember the seats being so damn comfortable, even for being a harder compound race inspired bucket seat.
    Pretty sweet car for a couple 16-17 year old kids to be rolling around in, in peak fast and furious era.

    BN Sports were cool back in the early ‘00s for sure and always brought crowds at TAS but even back then I preferred GP Sports and M-Sports kits. You are right about the Type X wing. Even though I love it. It does have bad angles🤷🏽‍♂️

    • @dorkidori
      @dorkidori Год назад +1

      i think thats the thing most folks dont understand about wangan wings, especially the TBO wing i reproduce. it has NO bad angles. the "type x" wing only looks good at certain angles, others its very anemic and misshapen. and i totally agree with you on the old GP Sports (hence why i reproduce the Type-R aero line) and M-Sports. always dug that popular M-Sports kit thats still around today. M-Sports kit is a little too aggressive for my tastes, but still awesome looking none the less :D

      Sometimes you can make a statement with a car part. Not everything needs to conform to "design language." What hair fits the design language of a head? Buzz cut, bald, bowl haircut. Uniform, smooth. All can be decent, design language fitting shapes for the head. Asymmetrical haircuts exist though, and nothing on the face's design language is asymmetrical, at least not intentionally. Mohawks, pompadours, funny shaped afros exist too. They make much louder statements like the Type X. Wangan wings on the other hand are the haircut you'd have at your parents' house. Clean, classy, different from what you'd wear with your friends.
      In short, it's style.

    See that confirms why I didn't really care much for s13's back then because it seemed like none of the kits lined up or matched aesthetically and had me questioning why do people like these over the s14/s15/z32 (from an aesthetic standpoint)
    On another note it seems to me the only way to make some of those s13 kits look good is when the car has a full livery. I'm guessing it's due to how it hides the body lines but once I fully see it on a 1 color it's kinda ass.
    Now I do like them more but it's gotta have the right kit or just be stock. Maybe dorkidori could make a better type x wing that is a bit wider. Somewhere between the regular type x wing and the 326 wing so that it sits nice against the body without the obnoxious overhang of a 326.

    Sorry, but the Type X wing is based and the Wangan wing just looks weird and out of place. The Wangan wing is too big and bulky for the fairly slender car that a 180sx fastback is. The Wangan wing looks like a giant cement slab sitting on the trunk in the parking lot of a Home Depot while the owner rents a truck. I disagree completely with this community college design assessment presented in this video.

      Glad you're standing up for the type X. I don't even have any skin in this (I drive a honda) but I think the Type X wing looks nice from what I've seen. Not every car part or line needs to conform to overall "design language" or whatever the fuck. A wing can add something completely new and it often does across many platforms. In a way it can be like hair. Different texture and shape from the rest of your face, but brings something new.
      Design is so subjective. 80s hair was hot in the 80s and now look at it.

      not really, but you are welcome to your opinion sir (as we all are). my V1 wing has no bad angles. the "type x" wing only looks good at certain angles. TBO wangan wing was designed with the shape and lines of the car in mind. the "type x" wing was an afterthought on Nissans part. something to simply add to the car to give it a more "modern" feel, but really didnt mix with the over all design language of the hatch. the hatch is a smooth car. the "type x" wing doesnt carry that smoothness with it. TBO wangan wing carries said smooth design language. wangan wings really only worked with late 80s/early 90s vehicles that incorporated the particular hatch/fastback aesthetic including the FC, 1st gen DSM, S13 hatch... even the Mk3 and Mk4 supra, plus FD fall into this catagory as all were hatch/fastbacks as well.
