Many people have affection towards the kp series starlet in Ireland. Mostly due to the fact they were one of a rare breed of rear wheel drive hatchbacks from the late 70’s and early 80’s which made them extremely popular in rallying and hot rodding due to their FR layout which along with rust was one of the main reasons these cars disappeared, well that and the evil scrappage scheme. Most examples around Ireland have the usual superlites and mudflaps so it’s always nice to see a properly done version from the motherland.
Just want to say a big thanks to Titan Auto Works Japan, for supporting the site with an advertisement. The guys from Titan will also be adding content to Juicebox whenever they get the chance, so we can see some cool stuff through their camera’s in Japan.
This is pretty damn awesome, and it looks to be first try… no road markings!!
Only one snap of this, but one is good enough. Only in Japan would you find this type of epic creation. A KE wagon with a trueno front complete with some funky fender mirror’s.
This definitely was one of the better meets we’ve been to, it was a bit of a trip up from Waterford but we decided it would be worth it as word was quite a few people would show up and the fact that the new motorway makes it a simple drive.
At the opposite end of the spectrum to the clean EK9 which was on the site yesterday, this beast was sent into us about a week ago.
I remember seeing this car at Japfest this year and it just stood out. It wasn’t because the car was rocking some super amazing mods or anything like that but the way it had been put together just worked.
Erwin Wurm, some artist who’s idea was to make some fat cars came up these crazy creations.While everyone is all about stripping and stuff this guy keeps it real in the opposite direction. Who knows why, maybe to show that cars can get fat too?

I’ve always kept an eye on these two cars, two of the nicest AE86’s rolling around the streets of Waterford back when everyone was deep in the fast and furious Max Power world. These cars have been with the owners for years. I decided to feature both cars together fresh out of a restoration. Both owners went completely different directions so it a fascinating story. If you’re wondering why we’ve called this thunder vs. lightning, well because Trueno translates into thunder, and Levin loosely translates into lightning.
Yes, this is as confusing as it looks, but it does look almost look like a livesport spoiler for a k11 march! Someone must have wanted the feel of a subaru in the shell of a march! Or maybe they just couldn’t afford one.
