SS7: Virtual Legends “JINTEI” Skyline GT-R R34 [NOW AVAILABLE]

To begin a new clothing line at Status Seven, we are paying tribute to cars we’ve seen in virtual media that were the building block behind the origins for our passion for cars, such as racing games and possibly movies. Here is our first one, fresh off the presses!

Inspired from the Shutokou Battle / Tokyo Xtreme Racer series, if you know, you know. It’s a racing game series that takes place on the highways (sometimes in the Touge depending on game) of Japan, where you, start as a lowly street racer, and work your way to the top. Canonically, Jintei is no stranger to the Tokyo street racing scene in these games. Leader of the Thirteen Devils, sporting multiple variants of Nissan Skyline GT-Rs [Playstation & Dreamcast] and Subaru Impreza WRX STIs [DRIFT Series, Import Tuner: Challenge], Jintei is a force to reckon with. Often the last boss you face, we just had to pay tribute to such a legendary racer.

The design is based off his car in Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 / Shutokou Battle Zero One, sporting the iconic Bayside Blue paint. His car in TXR 3 has C-West Front Aero, Hood, Side Skirts, and wing, with an AB-Flug rear bumper, to finish it off, besides his iconic kanji livery, 13 number plate, and his Buddha logo, the car sits on silver Enkei RPF1s, which are a popular cast wheel known for its lightweight properties and strength. Stay tuned for more variations and tribute shirts!
