Here is another batch of photos that never made it off of the to-do list. I should have posted these right after the Sweden episode where Reuben decided to drift on a melted lake. Nonetheless, here are a few shots from the day before and after the ice adventure. This couple of days will always go down as one of the most mental weekends we ever had as a group of friends, pushing that car out onto a melting lake and extracting joy from frozen water, knowing it could all end very quickly. It’s an ill adventure take to the grave. Either way, here are some photos from that wild weekend. Hopefully, we can do something similar next year!

A Glitch in the simulation! Seeing this car on the other side of the world in Ireland, what are the odds?. What’s incredible is we made a friend in the process! Danny Gave it socks in last nights video before he went home. His Corolla was the first AE86 we spotted in Japan back in 2016, and it was surreal to see it once in our recent video.

I got a message out of the blue one night, and it was a guy called Danny from Wexford. He had watched our first Japan video, and he couldn’t believe his eyes. His very own 86, which he had recently imported, had just driven past us on the motorway in our feature-length “Japan without a plan.”

In this episode, we update you on the AE86, enjoy some misery with the March, and have fun with a Rusty Micra.

This was the Nissan March’s last shoot before we raised it. I tried to get it through a test and ultimately had to face the fact this was no longer the machine for the long 220km commute I have to do every day driving up and down to JDM Distro.

Here are the photos from our trip to shadow rotary back in 2019 when we dropped flips engine up for a teardown and had a look at their shop. I’m not sure why I didn’t post these when we launched the episode, but a few backlogged articles slipped through the cracks. Nonetheless, I know some people have always enjoyed the little pieces we have thrown on the site over the years and I’m sure many of you have seen the full episode, so ill let the photos do the talking here. Enjoy

Let’s take a closer look at Kevin’s AE86 from the last video. We were lucky the sun came out that day to show off its incredible blue paint. Kevin had been building this car for over seven years and had just picked it up a couple of days before we called out to visit. He was very eager to show me the Levin. Continue Reading
