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.

The “AXIS EXOCET” brake pads were developed using disc-brake manufacturing technology from the Shinkansen, which continually pursues new materials and advanced technology. They retain the high braking force, controllability, and fade resistance characteristic of conventional full-metal pads, while greatly reducing rotor wear, noise, and wheel dust to a level comparable to non-asbestos pads (compared with our products). This groundbreaking full-metal brake pad sets a new standard for the next generation: the AXIS EXOCET series.
