Nakamura Racing’s Ferrari 308 GTO

By Ben Schaffer

The Real JDM

WIN.

After seeing this picture I instantly started looking up prices of used 308 GTBs ($30,000 for those wondering). This car is flawless and a perfect example of retro JDM tuning with a Exotic car twist. If I could own this car for anywhere near $30,000 in this condition I’d be lining up for one right now.

Nakamura Engineering is one of Japan’s most well regarded Ferrari tuning and maintenance shops. We’ve featured them on this blog before, but this latest picture of their 308 GTO is one of the cleanest and best cars I’ve seen lately. You totally forget that the car is 30 years old looking at this picture!

I’ll be posting some more on Nakamura Racing soon…

What Did You Do This Weekend?

By Chris Bicknell

This weekend I finally took the time to tune my ’66 Impala’s carburetor.  After swapping the primary and secondary jets, metering rods and piston springs, the stroker motor that Jen and I built last year finally seems to be running better than ever.  There’s still a lot to do before the 2010 Greenwood Car Show in Seattle on Saturday June 26th but I’m glad to have gotten a jump start on it.

How about you?  What did you do this weekend?

Note to self: Don’t make a crackhead angry or they might jump on the hood of my car and start bashing in the windshield. Next time they ask for some change you better give it up or you might end up like the driver of this car.
