.... bluemax knows a little ToO much.... 
hmmm S14 hard to make eh? well, yeah... it's a 2 door, and the front lights are kinda ... weird.. and the hood's pretty stretched out..
i would wanna see of someone could do a sil80... it's obviously possible, but making it look good would be a whole different story.. especially the rear lights...
kenji's 180 could be made from an FD pretty easily im thinking... the S13... well... i dunno...
 i wanna see a levin body... but most of all, shingo's EG-6 or EK-9 in the 4th stage.. mmmm civics...................

Too me that pic from HLJ looks like a Impreza STI 22B, or at least thats what I remember it being called. There was an article ages ago on it in one of the popular automobile magazines. Just like a lot of other cars in the series that particular version was only available in Japan. I think the closest thing we got to it at the time was the Impreza 2.5RS which looks similar but isn't turbocharged.
There is a Impreza 2.5 RS here at school which looks similar to that car. I would snap a pic but I don't have a digi here. Here is a link to the STI 22B http://www.supercars.net/cars/1998@$...22B%20STi.html

Pretty good eye mpbiv. The pic does look a lot like an Sti 22B, but the 22B wasn't only available in Japan. There were 425 cars made. (Very limited series), and some were sent to the UK, Australia got at least one, and the Sultan of Brunei supposedly has one. The US of course, got none  There is a rumour that one was imported to the US but no confirmation.
Here's the whole thing with Initial D though. I might be wrong, but I believe Bunta's WRX in stage 4 is an Impreza WRX STi ver. 6 chassis code GC8. The chassis code doesn't help since the WRX's from '93 - 00' were GC8. What is important though is if it is an STi ver 6.
The 22B is built from a modified STi ver. 4 with a bored out engine fro the standard 2.0L turbo to a 2.2L turbo and it came out in '97. If the info I have is right, then Bunta is supposedly driving an STi ver. 6 Type-R which came out in '99.
This is of course even more confusing 'cuz if my calculations are correct, it would REALLY make more sense if Bunta was driving an STi 22B. The animated series first came out in '99 and I thought stage 1 implied that it was somewhere around '96. And in fact, stage 1-3 take place within a year.
Stage 4 is supposed to be when Takumi joins Takahashi Ryosuke's Kengai racing team, which, if my assumption that stage 1-3 takes place in '96, would mean that it is now '97 which is when the 22B debuts.
However, the little info I got seemed to indicate Bunta's car is a ver 6. There is that Initial D arcade game and I think it might in part II but they DO have the WRX in it, and you race Bunta as the last boss. In the game, it states that the car is an STi ver 6. (and my buddy didn't mention it being a 22B which I think he would have. Gotta ask him again though)
Maybe my assumption that stages 1 - 3 are in '96 are wrong. If they were in '98 or later (to allow Bunta's STi ver 6 '99), seems odd that they don't show anyone with an Evo V or BNR 33.
Oh well, who knows, guess I'll just have to see it myself to find out for sure.
BTW, the Type-R was simply Subaru's designation for the 2-door body.

well the whole issuse about the 22b is that you see it in the acade game.... now if this is true it really does depend on what year the game was made...... see if it was made '99 + then the bluemax's info is correct.......

Are they movie or music file extensions? If the file extensions are .mpg or .avi and you are only gettting audio chances are you need to update your media player and/or get a divx codec.
Never had kazaa find music files when you specify video, so I am assuming you are just getting video files with only audio.
