@@deletdis6173 Exactly, combined with the Mcdonalds sitting there. The Foxbody, it all screams AMURICA! 🤣 Didn't notice the eurobeat tho until now I hear it, sounds pretty good. I think that's what made me nod my head the whole time lmao.
Let's remember there's an actual "American Takumi driving a Fox Body". Chelsea Denofa was always a huge Foxbody fan and legend says he used to rip the mountain pass with it while everyone else used AE86 or 240SX. His Foxbody nowdays is an amazing build
As a South Carolina native that has grown up in Carolina culture where motorsports is HUGE, when I began watching this video I said "if this video doesn't have the blue ridge parkway or tail of the dragon on it, it's not shit"
I didn't know I wanted this until now. Quick "What if car list" below (set during the same era as Initial D so late 90s): Itsuki - 2nd gen Mercury Capri with I4 (NA, but getting a turbo later) Ryosuke - C4 Corvette ZR-1 Keisuke - C5 Corvette (non Z06) Takeshi - Buick GNX Shingo - 1st-gen Dodge Neon R/T Edit: Iketani: Thunderbird SC Kenji: Mercury Cougar XR7 Mako: 3rd-gen Pontiac Firebird V6 Turbo (with Camaro front end swap) Bunta: either a GMC Syclone or AMC Eagle SX/4 coupe (turbocharged) Todou School: Dodge Neon ACR Kai Kogashiwa: Pontiac Fiero GT Team Emperor: 1st and 2nd Gen Eagle Talon TSis (not many awd performance cars (let alone sedan) from America in the 90s so a DSM will have to do) Edit: While I agree with various commenters the c4/c5 corvette would be a good choice purely on looks, I went with the firebirds for a couple reasons (please remember the following is my opinion). 1. For Ryosukes car the turbo V6 makes a lot of sense as it's a smaller capacity than Takumis Mustang while making more power, just like the 13b vs the 4age. 2. The comparison with Nakazatos GNX was hard to overlook, given they would be a yin and yang of the same engine in a different car. 3. The corvettes seemed just a bit obvious to go with. Edit 2: changed Escort to Merkur Edit 3: per several comments, the Takahashis have traded the Firebirds for Corvettes and Bunta's getting a pickup
So Bunta's car would be a Group B Ford Escort or Ford RS200? Edit : I changed Ford Focus RS to Ford Escort or Ford RS200 because this two cars participated in Group B whereas the Ford Focus RS does not.
AE86: drifts because it's the perfect balance of power, handling, agility, and finesse. Fox Body: drifts because it handles like a canal boat with a honking V8 motor upfront. 😂

@@PROJECT33you should make a full video of a race from the show. This is hands down the best thing I've seen in a long time. An American version of I.D. is brilliant!
(Takumi and Project D crew travel to NC for a US tour) While cruising the state park to learn about US roads, far in the distance in Takumi's rear view mirror, he saw a silhouette of a car blasting a Free Bird while drifting.
takumi: i drift these corners because this car has barely any horsepower and i want to get done with the delivery fast. tony: i drift these corners because i'm a teenager and this 5L rwd is too much power for me to handle.
it depends on the model year. The first 5.0 V8s had ~140 hp and they peaked at ~230 hp for the late model Cobras. That's basically the same power levels Takumi was working with in his 86.
@@dudejo Even less power factor in the weight. Cobras is still an American muscle cars so it is very heavy. Although compared to modern day muscle Cobras is considered light. Nowadays muscle car weight over 4000lb for no reason
Sure, but 5.0 Mustang guys would spend a lot of money on speed parts back in the day. I think of how big the old Summit Racing catalogs were back in the 1990s. A huge chapter would just be for 5.0 Mustangs.
Thomas Fuji, son of Keneth Fuji, is a 18 yo from rural North Carolina who learned how to master driving and drifting from a very young age, even though his agressive driving style, fast speed in straights and amazingly loud 5.0 V8 Foxbody Mustang make him look like he enjoys to show off, he just wants to help his dad's farm and get back to his home as fast as possible, driving on the limit to not damage the deliveries He seems to enjoy the ride tho.
The only note I have is that if he’s hauling ass down a North Carolina mountain road in the wee hours, he’s DEFINITELY running moonshine and not milk. Not that he’d advertise his still on the side of his car. The milk thing is obviously a front to throw off the cops.
I absolutely love this. and nice choice. The fox body mustang be in Takumi‘s car. Also, I love the fact that the Americanized Initial D takes place in North Carolina. That is awesome. And the fact that the matter is I think all of this video's very awesome and the fact that the Mountain road that he takes is the Blue Ridge Parkway.
'constant weight shifting during the turns' - That was the part that I noticed and liked best as well. My only critique would be that for a Fox Body being such a heavier car, the transitions felt a little fast and that broke the illusion of being a bigger, heavier car for me - example: The third transition in the sequence between 0:27 to 0:34 - Thoughts?
@@JonathonBartonWell a fox body with a stiffer coil spring setup and sway bars will have a faster rebound in cornering, so the excessive body throw is far faster and shorter than usual, especially with lateral forces, but in terms of the body being pushed forth and back from acceleration. it has little effect. So the mustang here can reasonably have faster and snappier turn ins for cornering. but the accerleration weight transfer remains AS floaty as all other fox body vehicles (fairmonts are the best example).
@@shortbushero Very true for real world vehicles - from an animation standpoint, I guess my perspective is similar to when a game developer or reviewer talks about combat in a game being "weighty". It's pixels. There's literally no weight. The animation overall I think is really well done, but there are also just those couple of spots where (no matter how a race-prepped Fox Body would react on that road at that time of night) the animation misses a certain something that would lend that same sense of being 'weighty', y'know?
@lancevance2005 I think that's a little too new, and it's not really a Tail of the Dragon car. I think a built early LS Firebird is perfect for American Keisuke. It's closer to the right era for First Stage, and opens up Ryosuke to have a badass 3rd-gen Trans-Am. I think the Mopar guys of Initial-D would have to be Nakazato and God Foot. Takeshi drives a blacked-out 6.1 Charger SRT8, God Foot gets a Redeye.

We need to make this a show. Even just one season, mirroring the og Initial D. Have a very similar timeline, but it's an American boy with some old obsolete Fox GT. Stomps out a hotshot yellow C7 Corvette and his older brother in a white C6. It practically writes itself.
holy shit this is great. As an australian who went through the rise of JDM, then discovered initial D, went through a few JDM cars and finishing with an s15 (still have) but then ending up also enjoying the s550 iterations and ending up with a Mach 1...I THINK THIS IS AMAZING.

This video goes directly to my favs. This video is perfect, even the sound of a coyote..... this is my favorite car and i love initial D. Thank you so much
This is incredible. It is equal parts satire and homage at the same time and it's made with so much love and attention to detail that I'm losing my mind over here.
alternate timeline where takumi is a drag racer instead of a drifter, and he has mastered the art of shifting and manages to beat built dragsters in his mostly stock foxbody. Sounds like a interesting timeline
@@jackmagnium6115 again ik, irl obviously a auto is much faster, heck even modern CVTs are catching up in performance. But like what happened in mf ghost, id like to think his shifting is just that stupidly fast in this universe that he's able to beat out faster cars like how in mf ghost he was able to beat out supercars in a 86 when in reality that's practically impossible
@@jasper39488 its much worse considering he is quite literally tearing up his body just to make a car better. instead of being smarter and just dumping the 4 banger for a better engine like a 1uz V8(which existed at the time of initial D and had been in production for almost 8 years)

Drove the Blue Ridge Parkway, and lemme tell ya if this actually happened, it would be scary how well an American edit would match the Japanese version, BRP is practically a touge road of its own volition. What a good edit, and amazing job. Need to see an extended version with actual races, chases, close calls, and just raw driving!
There's a stretch of road in Maryland or Virginia that was absolutely wild. I believe it was Route 2... Man, it'd be perfect for a legendarily deadly touge course!
Gotta be Wisconsin back roads. Especially with the Fuji Farms title. Our sunrises aint like no other (I will give credit to Tenessee sunrises. Absolutely refreshing.)
What's funny about this is the fox body used to be considered a worthless shit box much like the AE86 was as well, until it became a culturally significant part of car culture.

Freebird was an excellent choice for this masterpiece
eurobeat freebird actually slaps. what a crossover.
vid is perfect too. 👌
The McDonalds on the dash was a nice touch and made me laugh.
So Fucking good! I loved that car/camera movements :)
Each Country have a Initial D version xD
I would love to see a bunch of countries receive this kind of wonderful homage, especially seeing Death Metal paired with a Volvo 242 in Scandinavia.
That was super sick. Great job my guy you absolutely killed that.
you just KNOW he's got one of those little tree air fresheners hanging on the mirror in there.
I should've added that 😂
@@PROJECT33i think the animation is perfect as is! i'd love to see more of american initial d. i used to live in north carolina, black mountain specifically and the mountains were great for driving. i've never tried it though
Actually that would make a pretty solid analogue to the water cup.
A Little Tree with the Black Ice scent
these guys get it
This video goes directly to my favs. This video is perfect, even the sound of a coyote..... this is my favorite car and i love initial D.
Thank you so much
This is so clever. Loved it!🤓😁
if takumi got the foxbody mustang, itsuki would get the 2nd gen mustang, ryosuke would probably get a c4 corvette, and keisuke got the c5 corvette
wataru the mercury Capri, Bunta a GMC syclone
Itsuki would probably end up with the 2.3 foxbody coupé because he'd think it's the same car
Been waiting to see what was next on here for so long lol. Worth every second, yall got some above and beyond renders 👌
This is incredible. It is equal parts satire and homage at the same time and it's made with so much love and attention to detail that I'm losing my mind over here.
Love this, amazing work! Being from NC, I love it even more.
He's swirling his McDonald's sprite.
Amazing!!!! The NC Plates look real!!!
That was great. Using Asheville and a foxbody as the American Initial D. Just brilliant 🤣
I always wondered how good takumi would do in an foxboy mustang, but now seeing this makes me want to see him drift a s550 mustang
Now i am start imagining if the entire Initial D movie was taken pace in the US
I saw the thumbnail and really thought it was the ae86 but it's really a fox body that's sick! Loved this and looks amazing
alternate timeline where takumi is a drag racer instead of a drifter, and he has mastered the art of shifting and manages to beat built dragsters in his mostly stock foxbody. Sounds like a interesting timeline
Unlike the downhill where his corolla would dominate, drag racing requires heaps of power to match heaps of power. It wouldnt work.
yea ik, it was a joke comment obviously he wouldn't win, but in a fictional world who knows? maybe shifting really is the key@@dragonbutt
@@jasper39488 it isnt sadly. especially since automatics are faster anyways, even DCT automatics are stupid fast
@@jackmagnium6115 again ik, irl obviously a auto is much faster, heck even modern CVTs are catching up in performance. But like what happened in mf ghost, id like to think his shifting is just that stupidly fast in this universe that he's able to beat out faster cars like how in mf ghost he was able to beat out supercars in a 86 when in reality that's practically impossible
@@jasper39488 its much worse considering he is quite literally tearing up his body just to make a car better. instead of being smarter and just dumping the 4 banger for a better engine like a 1uz V8(which existed at the time of initial D and had been in production for almost 8 years)
nice work bro. i came across your animations a month back. and i think your work is so sick. keep it up
Appreciate it!
I lost it seeing the nug sauce slide away during that transition. 😂
Just means they have more practicing to do.
Bro you should partner up and make an American version of Initial D. This was amazing.
I'd be cool to see just a one off episode of this concept. Similar to that Spongbob fanmade Anime a few years ago
Immediate smile on my face. This is awesome!
"If the car leans too much, the milk will spill, and the butter will be ruined."
Japan: Takumi is normal
America: Takumi having obesity
geez this stereotype is overused
@@lessronishere7540 Given the ratio of obese to non obese people in america and how fast its growing, its starting to not be just a stereotype and instead just be reality.
@@lessronishere7540 There's more overweight people in America than non-overweight people. Fact.
@@paulklp8262 Not true at all, Germany, Iceland, Luxembourg, Spain, island UK, Canada Australia and new Zealand all have obesity rates between 25-31% of the population. The US is 36, it's not substantially different.
Technically, Australia takes the cake for the most obese nation on earth. 5% is a pretty substantial difference though. @@SPAZTICCYTOPLASM
Finally a new vid
Never realized how well the 50 fox bodies fit that body style that’s amazing🙌🏻🙌🏻
Love this!! Used to own a 88' foxbody soft shell in maroon red!! Those 5.0 motors are really fun!!
Perfect car choice :>
Now that’s pretty sick! Love the Foxbody as a huge Mustang fan! Just so wonderful like what I wish for! ❤
now i want a german version. Amazing work!
This is one of my favorite videos of all time
i had no idea what kind of quality (by that i mean, it is very high) i was about to watch when i saw this thumbnail. just awesome. love the foxbody in place of an 86
This is criminally short.
fire video. subscribed, liked, commented, clicked the bell, shared it to my family, played it at my grandma's funeral (she was resurrected), this video cured my stage four terminal cancer, my depression, and fixed my unrelenting habit to call shitting while constipated a souls-like experience. cant wait to see more

How're you doing after the hurricane
@@HaydenPhipps kinda good other than no power
@@HaydenPhipps and I have a generator luckily
This would be amazing!! Great job!
This is quite possibly the best thing to ever be posted on the internet.
Drove the Blue Ridge Parkway, and lemme tell ya if this actually happened, it would be scary how well an American edit would match the Japanese version, BRP is practically a touge road of its own volition. What a good edit, and amazing job. Need to see an extended version with actual races, chases, close calls, and just raw driving!
There's a stretch of road in Maryland or Virginia that was absolutely wild. I believe it was Route 2... Man, it'd be perfect for a legendarily deadly touge course!
@@scottjs5207 battle on the tail of the dragon then come back to this comment
So many good roads in this area one of the reasons I moved to North Carolina
I thought it said:
“Fuji Firearms”
Gotta be Wisconsin back roads. Especially with the Fuji Farms title. Our sunrises aint like no other
(I will give credit to Tenessee sunrises. Absolutely refreshing.)
As Minnesota driver I can confirm Wisconsin back roads are awesome for hooning
Out in Western Wisconsin? SE Wisconsin is rather flat and boring roads wise in my expirience
@stonksinspectors7949 I'm in Central Wisconsin. Lots of hills around here.
@@honeycombkole3185 Figures, up north and the west have some of the best roads I ever drove on. Shame SE Wisco is such a bore
@@stonksinspectors7949 That's where the floods and glaciers of past times carved out all the hills into flatlands. It makes sense.
What's funny about this is the fox body used to be considered a worthless shit box much like the AE86 was as well, until it became a culturally significant part of car culture.
I live right beside the parkway…. Well done.
