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.

It is offered as a Skyline-specific package intended to complement a high-tuned appearance. These are the manufacturer's product claims and specifications.

EB TUNE intercooler kits: S14; RPS13/PS13; and RS13/S13. Core size: H280 × L600 × W76 mm. The popular Silvia lineup is now being shipped as a refined piping kit with a complete kit and reliable fit.

The maker says its high quality helps improve driving performance.

Includes connecting hoses, hose clamps, mounting brackets, bolts and nuts, and installation instructions. Kits for A31 Cefiro and C33 Laurel (RB20DET); EB TUNE A31/C33 intercooler kit. Core size: H280 × L600 × W76 mm. Two RB20DET kits for the Cefiro and Laurel join East Bear's intercooler-piping lineup. The catalog says the setup can support cooling for circuit use and give the car a tuned appearance. A TRUST Type 24 two-layer intercooler for twin-turbo use is also offered as a set. Owners seeking a balanced overall tune can choose that kit as well.

For S13-series owners: the EB STYLE S13 front bumper for the 180SX is finally on sale. East Bear's concept for the shared 180SX/Silvia design is to add performance without sacrificing the original bumper's function. The shape draws on the R34 and S14, with improved cooling and downforce in mind. The wide opening in the center duct is designed to direct airflow efficiently to the intercooler while minimizing modifications to the reinforcement bar. The makers say it offers flexibility for different owner tuning styles.
