Young Version — August 1999

About this issue
The August 1999 issue of Young Version explores drift setups versus grip tuning through 22 shop demo cars, including S15 Silvias from Mine’s and Kazama Auto. Features cover front-wheel-drive builds taking on high-powered 4WD rivals, choosing a first drift car, and reviving a used AE86 Trueno on a ¥1 million total budget. Suspension fundamentals, engine-oil selection, rotary maintenance, new-parts tests, and reports from Hiroshima and California round out this look at Japan’s late-1990s tuning scene.
242 available scans from Young Version — August 1999, in right-to-left reading order. Japanese OCR and English translation drafts are available throughout. Drafts have not received exhaustive image proofreading; unreadable source remains recorded in the archival data.
Page 169 — English draft translation
Made of lightweight, high-rigidity extruded aluminum with an airfoil profile. Black anodized finish; choose from two lengths to match your vehicle and style. Full kit includes mounting stays, two sets of end plates, mounting bolts, dedicated tools, and accessories. Aluminum stays offer three mounting-width settings. Easy installation: drilling holes in the vehicle is all that is required. Universal fit for most vehicles, though some may not be compatible. For factory trunks only; not for FRP or carbon-fiber trunks. Wing angle is fixed.
Mounting brackets, bolts and nuts, and end plates are not included. CUSCO is competing again this year in the All-Japan GT Championship GT300 class. Round 5 is August 7–8 at Fuji Speedway—please visit! The first 20 people who help with the Pit Walk Polaroid photo session will receive an original CUSCO sticker. A CUSCO Impreza will be displayed in the GT Members’ Corner; come see and touch the latest parts.
