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.

Young Version
The new Blitz offers more than just power.
The electronic-brain trust at Blitz has done it again.
As the year 2000 approaches, Electronic Blitz is firing on all cylinders. The new MSTT hints at the new Blitz. Its blue backlight gives a glimpse of what's to come—you should see the actual unit for yourself.
In addition to a turbo timer, this system offers multiple measurement functions, including speed and dash-timer measurement.
