OTWeb: Exvitermini hunting

Posted on by

I have a fascination with an old website that used to be around called www.exvitermini.com.  Although, if you go to that site you will receive this message, “server crashed :( exvitermini will be back soon!” I don’t know what they mean by soon, as this site has been down for years.  The site be a holy grail of videos that portrayed a variety of tuning aspects in Japan and some from Europe. Some of the classics consisted Smokey Nagata’s Wangan runs, street drifting, high hp drag skylines, and much more.  Below is a short clip of one of the drifting videos that used to be linked on that site. I “think” this video is a clip from a Best Motoring or some other compliation at the time. I am probably wrong, feel free to chime in. Pay attention to the aesthetics of this car, the offset, and the stance.  I believe this video was made pre 2003, (first time I saw was 2004) but I am not exactly sure.  Hopefully someone can chime in on the driver as well, as they are mixed answers everywhere I check.  I love the cinematography, this is classic, pre-HD, driver focused filming.

Only 2 minutes

And here is another classic FROM the exvitermini people. High HP Skyline.

Serious, exvitermini was the bomb. If anyone has the old exvitermini videos saved, I would love to catch some! Let me know,

  1. I believe the first video is old footage of Orido at Ebisu. There was also a similar video with a gray or black IS300 on some mesh wheels as well.

    I remember watching these Exvitermini videos when I was younger and being amazed by them, especially the one of their R33 on gold LMs jumping off the dyno. If you can find it, it is the one where the car has no front end, no doors, and about 3-4 guys weighing it down.

  2. Thanks for clearing that up Huy, I heard that it was Orido, but I wasn’t sure, good catch. I am going to find the R33 video, I know exactly which one you are talking about.

  5. Hey John, it’s Will (was shooting next to you @ FD Pro Am in Irwindale). You have a nice site goin on. Couldn’t help but notice this post. check out archive.org’s wayback machine http://web.archive.org/web/*/www.exvitermini.com I clicked through a few of the pages and could download some videos. Congrats on your guy making it as far as he did!
