The December 2007 issue of Drift Tengoku pushed boundaries with its mix of creative builds and grassroots drift action. This issue stood out for showcasing bold styling choices, performance setups, and interior craftsmanship.
The cover car set the tone — a Nissan 180SX S13 transformed with a Mercedes-inspired front swap. It represented the experimental side of drifting culture, where personal vision often outweighed convention.
On the rear, Bride’s Gias and Cuga seats were highlighted, emphasizing the brand’s handmade attention to detail and commitment to safety without sacrificing style.
The Mercedes-front 180SX, underlining its role as the star feature of this issue.
Technical setups filled the pages too. Page 43 showcased S13 coupe models powered by SR20 engines, solidifying the engine’s reputation as a go-to choice for reliable drifting.
The magazine also captured team spirit. Page 119 delivered a Kassha Good Lookin’ collage spread, blending S14, S13, S15, and AE86 builds in a showcase of style and camaraderie.
Individual spotlights included the blue AE86 Levin on Work Equip 01 wheels with Origin styling (page 122), a perfect example of how timeless tuning meets aggressive stance.
And to close the issue with flair, page 241 introduced the “Firemaster” 180SX/240SX in blue and green — a build that commanded attention both on track and in print.
