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.

So, could you take a quick look at it?
Hmph!
An FD, huh… Maybe there’s air in the cooling system?
Did you replace the coolant or anything?
Huh?! I tried it myself the other day, but don’t you just drain it and refill it?
I want to start tuning from here, so I can improve its heat management!
What?! You didn’t bleed the air?
You fool!
The 13B is already hard enough to bleed air from!
You’ll destroy the engine at this rate!
