• 11:27
  This is like 1999 dude. I didn't have this game because
• 11:30
  I was like, why would I own this like?
• 11:32
  Frankie is saying he had this. Dude, I don't know what this
• 11:35
  was. I was nine years old.
• 11:37
  I was 10 years old. I didn't know what the fuck was
• 11:38
  going on. I was like why I?
• 11:40
  Don't know what the fuck is going on.
• 11:41
  What the? Fuck part of me was like 9 bro.

• 11:45
  This Mary right there. Like what is the point of this

  that was like alive and you just got to like.
• 11:52
  Player must take care of fish like creature.
• 11:54
  Yeah, yeah. That's it.

• 12:04
  What is that? God, that guy was creepy.
• 12:07
  The. Umbilical cord or what?
• 12:09
  This is why Dreamcast was the best bro they had games like
• 12:11
  this like pre Internet and all this stuff.
• 12:14
  Because then imagine if you had to come up with this stuff
• 12:16
  because I, I put the same theory to like 80s synth music, you
• 12:21
  know, like, because like what? They made-up words and, and like
• 12:24
  weird shit in that era. So like, imagine you had to
• 12:28
  pitch that sea man. Yeah.
• 12:31
  I don't even know how it got that far.
• 12:32
  To say like yo. I got a goal exactly.
• 12:37
  Something else. It must have been like the,
• 12:39
  well, you said, the Tamagotchi era, like taking care of things.
• 12:42
  Oh, maybe that's what it was. But why?
• 12:43
  Why? Yeah, like, tamagotchis were
• 12:46
  cute and they were like, let's just put some motherfucker's
• 12:49
  face on this fish and people are gonna take care of this dude.
• 12:51
  Yeah, and they're gonna take care of this dude.
• 12:54
  OK, car games on the Dreamcast I.
• 12:57
  Didn't really have any, believe it or not.
• 12:58
  Really. Car.
• 12:59
  Car. Not even a car.
• 13:00
  Game I wasn't in the car back when I was.
• 13:01
  Oh really? No shit?
• 13:03
  Yeah, fast. And Furious came out that year,
• 13:06
  so I probably got into cars like a year later dude.
• 13:09
  Was that the reason why you got into cars?
• 13:10
  Definitely was, Yeah. Oh.
• 13:12
  Wow, yeah, OK, so and we're going to ask our season guests
• 13:15
  here What Car games were the ones, cause the only one I know
• 13:19
  is Crazy Taxi because I played that in Target.
• 13:22
  I remember playing it in Target is probably one of my earliest
• 13:25
  memories. I'm literally just sitting there
• 13:26
  like fucking playing. Crazy Taxi Crazy Taxi was fun
• 13:30
  store. That shit was fun.
• 13:31
  You. Remember when that shit was
• 13:32
  around though The the thing? That I just played on my
• 13:34
  Dreamcast. Yeah, I had it on Dreamcast too.
• 13:36
  Fuck you, fuck you. I had to play it at the store.
• 13:39
  100% arcade port, which was unheard of at the time, but.
• 13:42
  Oh, Malcolm brought up car games.
• 13:43
  Metropolis St. Racer and then Tokyo Extreme
• 13:47
  Racer, obviously we were talking about earlier.
• 13:49
  That was all me right there. That's what got me into because
• 13:51
  back then this was like 1999 and 2000 and I was big into like
• 13:56
  going street racing in like Hunts Point and FV and all that
• 13:59
  stuff. Hell yeah.
• 14:01
  And I was just learning about cars back then.
• 14:03
  So I would come home after seeing all these guys race and
• 14:06
  then play that and I'm like, oh, this is a car.
• 14:08
  So I had to races and just kind of like continue to learn from
• 14:11
  from that point on. So dude, there was a big one.
• 14:16
  The visual mods in that game. Oh yeah, it was.
• 14:19
  We're so sick, dude. Can everything?
• 14:22
  Can you? Can you modify cars?
• 14:23
  In the Yeah, yeah, you put body kits.
• 14:25
  I never. Played that game.
• 14:26
  They had like sea W kids, yeah, and all this stuff.
• 14:28
  So dude, it was like the fours of A4 fours.
• 14:31
  Yeah. No, it is.
• 14:31
  It was like the stuff that we. For Need for Speed, yeah, yeah.
• 14:35
  Yeah, it's great. They just came out with a modern
• 14:37
  version like last week. Oh, really?
• 14:40
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 14:41
  Like on Steam and I think it's coming out on PS-5 as well.
• 14:43
  I. Don't know, I've been playing
• 14:44
  Skate. I don't know how I feel about
• 14:46
  it. I still like it, I guess, but
• 14:49
  that isn't that game was like how I figured out like, oh, this
• 14:55
  is what I like, I think. No Tokyo Extreme Racer.
• 14:59
  Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. The visual mods on Tokyo Extreme
• 15:01
  Racer because like, yeah you could mod the core to make it go
• 15:04
  faster. It's talking about like for PS2,
• 15:05
  right? I played it 0 Tokyo Stream racer
• 15:10
  0 Yes and there was another one for PS2 I think.
• 15:13
  Yeah, there was, there was 2 and I think 3 came out on PS2 as
• 15:16
  well, but those. Were that was what I liked dude.
• 15:20
  So the new one is like crazy like it they let you I think
• 15:23
  it's multiplayer and then you can do like photo shoots or you
• 15:26
  can take it to like Daikoku PA and like modify the cars and
• 15:31
  take photos there and what not. Like I haven't played it yet but
• 15:33
  I've just seen a lot of stuff and I'm like damn nostalgic it.
• 15:37
  Sucks you don't really have time nowadays.
• 15:38
  They really sit. Down download.
• 15:39
  A game you just watch somebody. Start my game playing.
• 15:42
  I'm so depressed about that. It's like adulting is like, it's
• 15:47
  sad. Yeah.
• 15:49
  Man, but you know, you can play with real cars, so yeah.
• 15:51
  Yeah. That's the difference.
• 15:53
  Is it still the, you know, like they didn't really have a lot of
• 15:55
  the licensure. They had a lot of the great
• 15:57
  dude. The cars, again, it's just the
• 15:59
  cars that we liked in that game. Yeah, they're all there.
• 16:03
  And like there, it wasn't called like an Altezza.
• 16:07
  Did they make another one after the because they made that 99?
• 16:10
  Are they all the same game? Like did you play the same one
• 16:12
  or is? It no, it's like they're all
• 16:13
  they get better. Yeah.
• 16:14
  So they like cars, pools, Yeah. Yeah, And there is a storyline.
• 16:18
  My old roommate Tyler is super versed, well versed in the
• 16:23
  storyline. Nice.
• 16:24
  So he's like, yeah, like you got to do this, this, this and this,
• 16:27
  like, really got in the game. So he kind of guided me through.
• 16:31
  That it was like loosely based on the One got Midnight manga at
• 16:35
  the time. Cuz the final boss was the Devil
• 16:38
  Z so you would just be driving around after you beat every team
• 16:43
  boss and team member and this car would just show up, race
• 16:46
  would start and he'd just be gone.
• 16:48
  Like impossible to catch. And then they made that game
• 16:51
  too, right? Didn't they make?
• 16:52
  Yeah, they, they have the arcade versions in Japan.
• 16:55
  Like, you know, OK, yeah, I don't think they have another
• 16:57
  culture game. No 'cause it's like, you know,
• 17:01
  arcade culture is a big thing in Japan.
• 17:03
  So they actually like, they have the Initial D games too, where
• 17:05
  you actually have to sit there and you have your little member.
• 17:07
  Car and all that stuff. Hey, there's one of those by me.
• 17:11
  We used to, we used to drive from up here 'cause we, we, me,
• 17:16
  Chris, everybody, Malcolm were from around here.
• 17:18
  But the arcade is by my house, which is 50 minutes from here.
• 17:23
  Just to play that. And Chris was the only one that
• 17:25
  would have the card. Wait, how do you get the card?
• 17:28
  You get it. Oh.
• 17:29
  You have to buy it like. There it was So.
• 17:31
  Cool, dude. Like, I don't know, like 8 on
• 17:34
  the break in Dunnellon. For those of you wondering,
• 17:36
  there's an Initial D, there's there's a.
• 17:38
  They stay updated on the Initial D machine there too, which is
• 17:42
  sick but. And then when?
• 17:45
  When did need for speed underground come out and for
• 17:49
  what system? That was for PS.
• 17:50
  Two, I think that was PS2 'cause.
• 17:52
  I didn't have it for PS2. I didn't have.
• 17:54
  PlayStation, so I either had it on Dreamcast or I had it on
• 17:57
  Xbox. I think it was.
• 17:58
  PS Or was it Nintendo 64? No, I'm gonna share PlayStation.
• 18:01
  PS1 had need for speed games, they just weren't what they were
• 18:06
  when 2000 and. One, I think the first one was
• 18:08
  on 64 maybe? Like dude, hot pursuit I would
• 18:12
  RIP that crazy dude. There was a Porsche unlimited
• 18:15
  one too. Oh my God, all the P cars that
• 18:18
  you could ever I. Didn't play that one.
• 18:20
  That ones before underground. Yeah, yeah, all of them.
• 18:24
  Yeah, they were. All but underground is like.
• 18:27
  That was the. That was the one based on.
• 18:29
  Fucked me up that. Scene the Fast and Furious after
• 18:32
  that. Then Underground came out and
• 18:33
  they had all those like, you know, those classic songs back
• 18:37
  then. Like they were like the IT was
• 18:39
  more of the introduction, I feel like of the the female presence
• 18:43
  in that. Yeah, if you.
• 18:44
  Had drag racing mode. There's girls.
• 18:47
  Gonna be like Jurassic Drag racing mode where people like
• 18:49
  flag in cars down and whatnot. That was so.
• 18:51
  Fun honestly, if you still have Need for Speed Underground,
• 18:53
  we've ripped it a couple of times, but the drag racing mode
• 18:55
  is a great part of the activity. It's like yo go shift when it's
• 18:59
  green and just try to beat your buddies on the fucking that was
• 19:02
  so. Fun Underground was the my
• 19:04
  favorite game. That's my favorite racing.
• 19:06
  Oh my God. And then Forza 4.
• 19:07
  If you try to play a reason now too, you know what we're spoiled
• 19:10
  with nowadays? Loading times.
• 19:12
  Everything's so fast. Oh weird, I used to have to wait
• 19:15
  quite a bit. You click the, you click the the
• 19:18
  next car and it's like then if it has to drive away, do all
• 19:23
  this and that. Dude I don't know what what got
• 19:26
  me in the car is it was it Fast and Furious, Need for speed
• 19:28
  Underground or X mods from fucking RadioShack?
• 19:31
  Do you remember those? I kind of remember that dude.
• 19:35
  I remember the commercials. Those were sick.
• 19:37
  Yeah. They were like little remote
• 19:39
  controlled cars and they were all tuner cars and they could
• 19:41
  sell the upgrades there too and. Everything they got me on the
• 19:44
  upgrades, yeah, not the actual car itself.
• 19:46
  And you could do you could do drift tires and all this other
• 19:48
  shit. I.
• 19:48
  Didn't know that you drifted them.
• 19:50
  You can, I mean they gave you. I know they raced them dude.
• 19:53
  The local, but it wasn't. Local.
• 19:55
  I mean, it's not going to be good, you know?
• 19:56
  There's like a hobby shop that we would go to and they had a
• 19:59
  track in there because it's like carpeted kind of that's what I
• 20:02
  guess the surface is like. They raced them shits.
• 20:06
  There's like an X Mods leak. Yeah, I believe.
• 20:08
  I didn't know. I thought it was big to me as a
• 20:10
  kid seeing X Mods. That was a really complicated.
• 20:14
  Platform you had you got to like build the you.
• 20:16
  Change out the motors, you change out the gearing.
• 20:19
  Like all this stuff you make it all-wheel drive.
• 20:21
  Maybe that was the trigger. I mean dude, it really memories
• 20:24
  that come. Modified and like it's all hands
• 20:26
  on. And then I wanted the yellow
• 20:28
  skyline so bad I never found it. Never found.

  Yeah, dude, it's impossible to find this thing.
• 21:53
  I have it in my mind but I don't know what to look up.

  But it was fucking ridiculous. It was just too big.
• 22:00
  At the same time. Yep, it's like a briefcase.
• 22:02
  Oh my. God, they think I used.
• 22:05
  To show up at the Xbox with the briefcase, you're like, oh, this

  a lot of the toys did this kind of stuff.
• 22:26
  It was really big on the modular type shit like yeah, yeah, I had
• 22:30
  Super Slicks. It was like a smaller version
• 22:34
  where like you would charge the car like on the controller or on
• 22:38
  the thing and that had like shit like 2 Fast 2 Furious stuff.
• 22:43
  So it was like I had the Evo 7, the Eclipse.
• 22:48
  You could put neons on. Those Oh my God, we don't.
• 22:50
  We didn't have that. Ahead of his time, but you.
• 22:52
  Were able to switch the motors and the tires and that was cool
• 22:55

  That's when it works like you could do that.
• 23:30
  Oh yeah, he's. Another hobby in itself.

  had one and he put like I think it was called a commonarity kit
• 26:00

• 26:02
  I think it used to be cool, like a lot of commonary kits came out
• 26:05
  of like Brooklyn. Yeah, yeah, yeah, the.
• 26:09
  Warehouse in Brooklyn, Yeah. Wow.
• 26:10
  There was a company, it was called like Shogun or something

  like that, and they would make like fake veal side kits and
• 26:18
  they were in Brooklyn. You guys, do you guys remember
• 26:22
  Chaser Arrow? That company Chaser Arrow was
• 26:26
  where we got all the drifting body kits from and it was like
• 26:29
  some company in like PA or some shit.
• 26:32
  And I always, I forget it's like gone in my mind.
• 26:34
  And then we have into conversations and I'm like.
• 26:36
  Chase or. Arrow was a thing I forgot about
• 26:39
  that and like they would just have reps of everybody kit like
• 26:42
  yes and they all fit like shit but.
• 26:44
  What was the 1A version select version?

  I won't say legit, but. They're legit enough.
• 27:08
  They're a real business. Oh shit, OK, I feel like VI like
• 27:11
  a game just the first suggested search result for so long.
• 27:15
  Yeah, like if you type in like body kid, dude behind that is
• 27:19
  right. Let's let's use the real word,
• 27:21
  ground effects, yeah? Damn, now you're reading, you're
• 27:26
  going back. Yeah.

  I did like the scion. Was it the XPI like the small?
• 27:31
  Oh yeah, yeah. That thing is cool.
• 27:32
  That's legit. That was actually like a car
• 27:34
  they sold in Japan. Yeah, dude.
• 27:36
  I was on this highway yesterday the other day and I'm driving
• 27:39
  and this thing pulls up next to me in the fast lane and I'm
• 27:41
  like. Dope.
• 27:42
  That thing is the most JDM car. Yeah, ever.
• 27:44
  It was dope. And that now it makes sense.
• 27:45
  It probably was the exact car from Japan.
• 27:47
  Exact car, they just changed the logos.
• 27:49
  That was like they announced that and the and the TCI think,
• 27:54
  Oh yeah, it was the XA, the XB and the TCI, remember?
• 27:57
  Like for the for the XB you could swap a lot of grill and
• 28:01
  all the body parts from the BB. And swap it.
• 28:03
  On yeah, yeah, I remember those. Car looks crazy.
• 28:06
  Huge marketing campaign around that back then, like the whole
• 28:09
  tuner image. Yep.
• 28:10
  Yeah, it was like the. Commercials.
• 28:12
  It didn't drift or do anything. No, it was just like it was, you
• 28:15
  know, just a car to go to your local meets with.
• 28:18
  Style. That was a style.
• 28:19
  It was. And then everyone be like, yeah,
• 28:20
  what should I do to it? And I'm like nothing, wait,
• 28:24
  like, oh, I wanna, I wanna supercharge it.
• 28:26
  It's like, OK, good luck. How long that's gonna last?
• 28:29
  Hey can I get more horsepower out of this?
• 28:31
  There are some in the area that are supercharged.
• 28:34
  I have. Sure there are.
• 28:35
  Yeah, yeah, it's sick. What engine is in that?
• 28:38
  Like what? Toyota engine?
• 28:39
  No idea. One ZZ maybe, if I had to guess.
• 28:41
  Watch this guy just guess it right off the bat.
• 28:43
  Dude, can we finger? Why do you have so much
• 28:45
  knowledge about it just? Cuz like it's the engine that
• 28:47
  was like of that time. It was like a It was a
• 28:51
  different. One let's say like a 1.5
• 28:53
  something. L22FE.
• 28:56
  What the fuck is? That no, you probably made it.
• 28:58
  Just for this, I think that's a different 2 ZR. 2.
• 29:01
  ZR is that the right? Oh, that's not it.
• 29:03
  That's. The XD looking for the TI.
• 29:05
  Should have never made the XD. The XD looks like that.
• 29:09
  Fucking mistake the. Smile the TC was.
• 29:14
  That's got to be a one ZZ. There you go.
• 29:17
  That's the giant right there. They don't tell me and that's
• 29:20
  how sex is really I think too easy.
• 29:22
  Too many people, too many girls who had ATC dude.
• 29:25
  OK, so that was what I was going to get at.
• 29:27
  When I grew up everybody knew if you have ATC you're either a
• 29:32
  douche bag or a girl. That's.
• 29:35
  Kind of. True every single one.
• 29:37
  Proven theory. 2 day, 100% win rate.
• 29:40
  Or or you did not know what you were doing when you went to the
• 29:43
  dealership? Why are you buying an orange one
• 29:47
  Marketing? Worked because all these people
• 29:49
  watched this movie and they were like, yeah.
• 29:52
  Tutor car, yeah, but look. Warranty guy.
• 29:57
  Such a nice car, like it was a nice car.
• 30:00
  I mean, you know, I don't know anything about it.
• 30:02
  It served its purpose I guess. I was so mad when they released
• 30:05
  the the FRS I. Know I was like what do you why
• 30:09
  I. Was like.
• 30:09
  Come on bro. What?
• 30:11
  Why? Because I just wanted to.
• 30:12
  Because it had a Scion logo on it.
• 30:14
  I'm like, dude, like, yeah. It was just like it fit the bill
• 30:18
  I guess. But dude, the there was a drift
• 30:23
  car made on the TC platform, Ken.
• 30:26
  Oh, she had one. That was because Toyota
• 30:28
  actually, God, I remember that. She was really, oh, they used to
• 30:32
  do a bunch of different like SEMA cars and whatnot back then
• 30:34
  too. Like, yeah, it was actually kind
• 30:36
  of dope. Yeah, Toyota was rolling in the
• 30:38
  event because that's when they made the 3rd Gen. 4.
• 30:41
  They they haven't stopped. They're.
• 30:43
  No, they they, they skim sometimes you could see.
• 30:45
  No, they got amazing cars. Right now, what did they when
• 30:49
  GRE six? No, no.
• 30:50
  No, no, no, no. Like over the years there was
• 30:52
  highs and lows like but I feel like there was a low right prior
• 30:57
  to the third Gen. 4 runner coming out like.
• 31:00
  What year is that? I don't fucking know, I just
• 31:02
  know it's a third Gen. Are you talking shit about the
• 31:04
  new shoe? No.
• 31:05
  No, no. Well, that thing sucks.
• 31:07
  I don't. I don't know if you're trying.
• 31:09
  Toyota was during that time, so they were just making random
• 31:13
  shit. So maybe they were making more
• 31:15
  SEMA cars that were fucking crazy and shit.
• 31:17
  Yeah, like what is it? Why does a third Gen. 4 runner I
• 31:22
  have a soft closed trunk? Like what?
• 31:24
  What? What?
• 31:25
  Like that was an unnecessarily expensive.
• 31:29
  Is that yours, Mark come or no, Yes, that's. 1/4 jam.
• 31:32
  Mine's a fourth jam, but I have a soft.
• 31:33
  Cloth. OK yeah. 4th jam.
• 31:35
  Fuck whatever that one is. It's off his yeah.
• 31:38
  On all of them. What Car do you know that you
• 31:41
  could buy for 2/3 grand now? Right now has a soft.
• 31:44
  Closure. That's Toyota trying to be rich.
• 31:46
  Yeah, they were just like, yo, make it good, make it good,
• 31:48
  whatever. Trying to add the technology to
• 31:49
  make it good. Yeah.
• 31:51
  Amazing. Or maybe they just don't want to
• 31:52
  change the Lexus version or. Oh yeah.
• 31:54
  No, but it's a different show, right?
• 31:56
  It's a whole different. Show maybe a Prado or something.
• 31:58
  Yeah. Dude I want to build ATC so bad
• 32:00
  right? Now I was just pretty like I
• 32:03
  want to build an FRS to put a Scion logo on it just so like it
• 32:06
  would throwback like we. Make it look cool that.
• 32:08
  Would have been the first thing I took off of that car.
• 32:10
  It would be a Scion badge. I remember I wanted one so bad.
• 32:13
  I was like first thing I'm doing is getting Toyota badges for
• 32:15
  this fucking car. God, I hated that.
• 32:17
  When we gonna have the Toyota badge?
• 32:19
  You should have bought Subaru badges.
• 32:20
  I didn't want the Subaru even though that car is a fucking
• 32:22
  Subaru. It just.
• 32:24
  Oh really? It really is a fucking Subaru
• 32:26
  dude. To me it is the suspension in
• 32:28
  the looks like a super. Oh, you said the Toyotas are
• 32:30
  really similar. Oh yeah, they they use the same
• 32:33
  design. So maybe, you know, I, I don't
• 32:36
  know, but when I look at it, I'm like.
• 32:37
  Is a fucking super. Oh, I see.
• 32:39
  And also then you brought up the fucking supra.
• 32:41
  That's. Literally a BMW.
• 32:44
  Literally. Like 100.
• 32:45
  Percent. What a good car.
• 32:47
  Sure. For BMW, it's a.
• 32:48
  Good car if you think about it. Like I feel like the Supra also
• 32:54
  took some that original the the mark 4 Supra also took stuff
• 32:59
  from BMW. Dude that's inline 6.
• 33:01
  The engine. Yeah, the motor.
• 33:03
  But but they were like, how long has Toyota been using inline
• 33:06
  sixes? Probably since the. 80s or seven
• 33:08
  years like the seven M. Yeah, the seven M was was huge.
• 33:11
  Inline 6. Imagine if you had a 7 M that
• 33:13
  was there was a guy by my college before had a 7M boosted.
• 33:17
  The fuck? It sounded like a jet engine
• 33:20
  dude. But imagine if you had that and
• 33:22
  you were ripping like that. Back then you were probably
• 33:25
  flying, yeah. To see the Mark 4 Super debut
• 33:30
  was probably crazy. Like seeing that, seeing that
• 33:31
  car on the road, like when people start fucking with it,
• 33:34
  yeah, Oh my God. It's like, oh, we can.
• 33:36
  Does it have 700? Horsepower this fast like whoa.
• 33:40
  What we could just keep up in the booth?
• 33:42
  Yeah, that had to be that had to be a major game changer for the
• 33:45
  scene. Like in the 90s, I mean I we all
• 33:48
  know the 90s was pretty light altering for cars, but.
• 33:52
  Peak, peak era of humanity, yeah.
• 33:55
  There was like a break though, you know what I mean?
• 33:56
  There was like some cars were still in the boxing mode and
• 34:00
  then some of them were like overly round.
• 34:04
  What was still in boxing mode back then?
• 34:06
  E36, That's my favorite example I see.
• 34:09
  It looks so dated. Yeah, when all of the
• 34:11
  environment around it was moving.
• 34:14
  I see it was moving but I still. Prefer that car the E36 over
• 34:18
  like. I hate that shit. 40 actually
• 34:20
  no, I don't prefer it over E46, but it's probably my second
• 34:23
  favorite BMW chassis. I'm having 40.
• 34:26
  Six, you have a favorite. Do you guys have a favorite
• 34:27
  Vienna? Yeah, I don't know anything
• 34:28
  about. Yeah.
• 34:29
  No, sorry guys. Porsche 3R S E39.
• 34:33
  Oh, you got a bunch? E46.
• 34:35
  Yeah, problems with like the the European car lover.
• 34:38
  I mean, I like to look at them. But two and both did not end
• 34:41
  very well. I had AE30M31.
• 34:43
  Stolen. Wait, somebody stole it.
• 34:45
  We're not gonna close. I'm from Astoria, right?
• 34:47
  It's a problem in the Greek neighborhood.
• 34:51
  I went in to get some feta come out, no car.
• 34:53
  Oh. My God, midday what?
• 34:57
  Time. This is probably 8:00 in the
• 34:59
  evening. Yeah holy shit.
• 35:01
  I mean that area like lots of like folks loved to just steal M
• 35:05
  threes back then and but then again, I only got you mine.
• 35:08
  It was 90 only got I got it for I think it was like 14 or 15,000
• 35:13
  back then. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait
• 35:15
  what? Year was it when?
• 35:15
  It was stolen M3. Three, I would steal that.
• 35:20
  I'm stealing that. When I say 07.
• 35:23
  Oh, back in 07. Yeah.
• 35:24
  Wow, Yeah. Dude, I'm stealing.
• 35:26
  Then you got into Hondas, which don't get stolen at all.
• 35:28
  It gets. A little more, but somehow
• 35:32
  people nice. Stories that.
• 35:35
  Was the second one T Bones? So oh God, I'm going to layoff
• 35:40
  these BMWs for a little. Bit I see.
• 35:42
  But. Those were the only two.
• 35:44
  You had two European cars ever. European cars, yeah, actually, I
• 35:48
  think that might be it, yeah. I've eventually went like AE90
• 35:51
  though. Love those.
• 35:52
  Dude, Oh my God. E46 to me is the yeah, that's
• 35:57
  the peak. I'm just laughing.
• 35:59
  I'm still laughing. For BMW, not for.
• 36:02
  I'm still laughing about the fact that Prov got into Honda's
• 36:04
  after his car got stolen. Let's try this.
• 36:08
  You had. Bars.
• 36:09
  You had feta, thank God. Like what the fuck?
• 36:11
  No, I actually loved Honda's from the beginning.
• 36:14
  I remember like we spoke about, like what?
• 36:17
  Guide you into things? Yeah, I remember, like being in
• 36:19
  the back of a classroom in high school reading a Sports Complex
• 36:23
  car. Or what's it Fortuner?
• 36:27
  Yeah, all that. Yeah, we did also mention that
• 36:30
  like, if you're reading these in class, I thought I felt weird,
• 36:33
  kind of like. I was definitely reading those.
• 36:35
  In class like in class. And then there's some Shorty
• 36:38
  there like, yeah. Yeah, I don't I.
• 36:40
  Didn't even think about that, but yeah, you're right, it is
• 36:42
  kind of crazy. It's just they were a little
• 36:43
  racy. Dude, you're still suggestive.
• 36:47
  Break the fuck up. What is going on down there?
• 36:50
  9:00 AM class like what 10 AM class?
• 36:53
  What are you talking about? I was in like the.
• 36:55
  You never got morning wood third grade. 3rd.
• 36:58
  Grade you discovered like. Yeah, wow, I was grating that
• 37:01
  shit in high school, dude. That's why.
• 37:03
  Yeah, high school was when I cared about cars.
• 37:04
  I So I was into cars when Xmas came out.
• 37:06
  OK. And then it went away.
• 37:09
  Didn't care about them. And then got into girls.
• 37:11
  When did it, Kim? I think I got into music,
• 37:13
  skateboarding girls. Yep.
• 37:15
  Yeah. And then end of high school is
• 37:18
  when I was like, oh, cars are cool.
• 37:21
  Was that trigger though? Like did you like go to a car
• 37:23
  event or like ohh. Some of the friends I met were
• 37:27
  into cars, like my friend. My friend Nico had his brother,
• 37:30
  his brother had a second Gen. eclipse in his backyard, was
• 37:32
  working on forever and I was like shit.
• 37:34
  I was like fuck, this is. That car in Fast and Furious and
• 37:37
  then we start working on that. That was it.
• 37:39
  That noise in that Yeah, bro, let's go and.
• 37:42
  Then we we'd take take it down the street and the blow off.
• 37:44
  I would go off. I'm like, oh.
• 37:46
  This is sick. Oh, it's GST all right.
• 37:48
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was GST.
• 37:50
  It wasn't GSX, it wasn't that lucky, but.
• 37:52
  I saw one of those. Oh my God fuck, it's not on this
• 37:55
  phone. And then you let me drive it one
• 37:57
  time. That was, Oh my gosh, that was
• 37:58
  life altering. I was in.
• 37:59
  Texas I wish I took a picture of this you would have loved this
• 38:03
  car. It was an Eclipse GSX fat
• 38:06
  looking like it was really big but low and I was.
• 38:09
  Like the rear's very bubbly you. Would have hated the color
• 38:11
  though, it was like purple. Or some shit.
• 38:13
  I actually like. Well, it depends on what you
• 38:14
  what. Color, but it was like it was a.
• 38:16
  Purple wing Purple. Yeah, I think like it.
• 38:18
  Was. I think it was too.
• 38:19
  Brown it was. Really, really bright.
• 38:20
  It had a wing. And it was perfect.
• 38:22
  I was like God damn it that's that's one of my dream cars to
• 38:25
  build 1. There's a couple of nice ones
• 38:27
  around here. I don't know.
• 38:28
  Oh. Yeah, dude, DSM I saw.
• 38:30
  One down fucking in Wildwood one year.
• 38:32
  Yeah, I was like, what the fuck? Remember Malcolm?
• 38:35
  These guys looked like they came straight out of like 2001.
• 38:38
  Yeah. Was it?
• 38:38
  Were they red? One was red.
• 38:40
  Yeah, there's a couple of red. You might know them.
• 38:42
  Yeah. He.
• 38:42
  Had an accent, he was from somewhere.
• 38:45
  I don't know if I I. Didn't think this guy might have
• 38:47
  been. Yeah.
• 38:48
  He came to grassroots. Yeah, I think they both came to
• 38:50
  grassroots, actually. And then?
• 38:51
  What was the other thing? I was like, what?
• 38:53
  I think his Instagram's like Teddy fastest fuck or something
• 38:56
  like that it. Was a CRX with him.
• 38:59
  It was a CRX and the Eclipse. And they were at, they were at
• 39:01
  the race in general, and they were at like a motorcycle event.
• 39:03
  And they were just sitting there and I was like, damn, these cars
• 39:06
  are like, bro, yeah, this weekend, yeah.
• 39:09
  I ain't riding that shit. They've had this for like 20
• 39:13
  years for. Yeah.
• 39:15
  Community there. It's always like, you wouldn't
• 39:18
  know until that car literally pulls out of the garage that
• 39:22
  that person has ADS. Yeah.
• 39:24
  Yeah. They're so hidden.
• 39:27
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. You don't even see them anymore.
• 39:30
  They were so common back in the street racing days.
• 39:32
  So dude, yeah, those are. I love seeing those come up to
• 39:35
  the line and I'm like, yo, I was about to go down.
• 39:37
  Oh shit, like. 4G63 is like my favorite force oh ever.
• 39:41
  God, that's got to be my favorite.
• 39:42
  Yeah, not. Yeah, they just jump off the
• 39:45
  line. Like it's like oh shit like
• 39:47
  ready fitting bro. There's just so much like
• 39:50
  history and that that engine's been in so many cool cars.
• 39:52
  There's like only like 3 models, but it's, I don't know.
• 39:56
  It's just so, so good, man, like.
• 39:58
  You need more of those out man like.
• 40:00
  Yeah, I don't know if you count it as DSM, but right up the road
• 40:04
  there's always a 3000GT parked outside of the liquor store.
• 40:07
  Oh, we just saw that. Sure.
• 40:08
  Yeah, we were. Driving over here, we were just
• 40:10
  like. Yeah, VR4.
• 40:12
  Yeah, VR4. I was like.
• 40:14
  One day he drove by here. We were outside.
• 40:16
  We were like. Oh shit.
• 40:18
  We're like yo and he's like looking over like what the fuck?
• 40:20
  Yeah, like who is that? No.
• 40:23
  Idea. It works over there.
• 40:24
  Because for the past couple of years I watched that change a
• 40:27
  little bit. Like you had like really cheesy
• 40:28
  wheels at first. Do you remember the cheesy
• 40:30
  wheels? They.
• 40:30
  Were really? Honestly I don't even remember
• 40:32
  it past a year ago. No, I would see it all the time.
• 40:35
  It changed like the wing got added on.
• 40:38
  So he's doing stuff. Yeah, he's doing stuff.
• 40:40
  Don't worry. He'll.
• 40:41
  Hit us up when he has some crazy fucking wiring problem and
• 40:43
  that's the only time we'll see it.
• 40:44
  I have this insane issue that I can't figure out.
• 40:47
  Google local car shops or something.
• 40:49
  I'm gonna be like, we don't wanna do that either.
• 40:52
  While you wind up finding a solution from a dodge stealth,
• 40:54
  yeah. I forgot this stealth bro.
• 40:58
  Yeah it's the same car, just like slightly different things.
• 41:02
  Was there? A fast dodge, stealth or was
• 41:04
  there just like a? VR4 version otherwise.
• 41:06
  Yeah, there was AI think it was the collaboration between
• 41:09
  Mitsubishi and it's the same exact car, Yeah.
• 41:11
  Yeah, no, but was was there like a GT?
• 41:14
  Yes, but it wasn't called a VR4, it was called something else.
• 41:18
  Malcolm's. On it, Bomber, Yeah.
• 41:20
  RT Yeah, RTC. That's what Dodge does.
• 41:23
  Oh yeah, that's right, that's right.
• 41:24
  So they had that they had, they had the Eclipse and the what was
• 41:29
  the other one called? The Dodge 1 called Oh.
• 41:32
  Man, fuck the talent. The talent, The talent.
• 41:36
  Talent. The talent.
• 41:38
  Those were the two cars. I hated seeing the grill on the
• 41:40
  talent. I don't know what.
• 41:42
  It was the eagle emblem, and that's what.
• 41:45
  That's what DSM was. It was diamond something.
• 41:48
  Diamond Star. Yeah, Diamond Star Motors or
• 41:50
  just like, yeah, yeah. So that was, that's what DSM.
• 41:52
  Got only those two cars. The Tour.
• 41:55
  Yeah, I was gonna make a confession.
• 41:56
  Yeah, I did not know what the. Reason I knew was because of my
• 42:00
  buddy had the eclipse in. That's the only reason I knew
• 42:02
  all this shit. Would have stopped talking about
• 42:04
  bro, you said and. He had the 20G turbo and all
• 42:07
  this. I wonder if just like how just
• 42:11
  like how now there's a formula for SRS if there's a formula.
• 42:16
  I'm sure there is. Or DSM's now and they what was
• 42:18
  the weak point there? The driver.
• 42:20
  The crank walk, the fucking yeah that was the only weak point on
• 42:24
  a 4G63 depending on which one you had.
• 42:27
  And then I guess the transfer case.
• 42:30
  Yeah, the transfer case for emos.
• 42:31
  Or the GSX. I don't know what the GSX had,
• 42:34
  but. Transmissions.
• 42:35
  Just blowing it right. I don't even know honestly, like
• 42:38
  if I was a get one I don't even think I'd give a shit if it was
• 42:40
  agst and feel like whatever. Yeah.
• 42:42
  So at this point, it's just. You don't really see them
• 42:44
  anymore. They're like, no, you never see
• 42:46
  that ever. You know what you don't see
• 42:48
  anymore, which is crazy? SRT Fours.
• 42:51
  I was thinking about this the other day.
• 42:53
  I saw, I saw one down the street, but I you never.
• 42:56
  See, last I think I saw one at that E town, the drift.
• 42:59
  Drift world or whatever the hell that was.
• 43:01
  Oh yeah. Oh yeah.
• 43:03
  They're, they're filming the movie.
• 43:05
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I saw one in a parking lot
• 43:08
  and. I was like, dude, but you
• 43:09
  remember you seeing those every? Day.
• 43:11
  Hell yeah. But but base model like this
• 43:15
  Perry Wink, Yeah. And it would sound like an alien
• 43:17
  battle cruiser, but yeah, they're like what the fuck was?
• 43:21
  This those are the no. Oh, we haven't had a fucking no,
• 43:24
  but crazy noise. SOT 4.
• 43:26
  I'm talking like the. Ohh, that yeah yeah, Neon.
• 43:29
  This is neon neon. Yeah, yeah, Those you saw
• 43:32
  everywhere. But I don't even see those.
• 43:34
  Any No, you don't. You know what I you know, I got
• 43:35
  a fucking dodge a lot. Of Chevy aluminum?
• 43:39
  What is it from that era? Chevy Lumina.
• 43:41
  Oh yeah, Lumina. Yeah, yeah.
• 43:42
  Why do we see those? Where are the neons at?
• 43:44
  They have the same. Where are the SRT fours?
• 43:46
  Where are they? Wear a shit ton of them.
• 43:48
  They were. At all.
• 43:49
  Like the street races too because every SRT4 owner thought
• 43:53
  they had the fastest car in the. World.
• 43:55
  Well, let's think of some. Some cars, probably.
• 43:57
  Why did I rob you? These motherfuckers were like,
• 43:59
  yo, let's go line it up. And they were all get walked by
• 44:01
  like ETS and shit. Why, Yeah.
• 44:03
  But think about it. Eclipses.
• 44:05
  You don't see those anywhere. SRT fours, You don't see those
• 44:08
  anywhere. What else was at at the drag
• 44:10
  strip all the time? Evos and.
• 44:12
  Evos. Hondas.
• 44:14
  Are still and they're. Still kind of around.
• 44:16
  Yeah, Hondas are still around, but they're it's a little
• 44:18
  different now, you know, like they're really clean.
• 44:20
  Yeah, you either have that or they're full drag cars.
• 44:22
  It's. Completely gun, yeah.
• 44:24
  Yeah, like they're just ready to like, either hit the track or
• 44:27
  like, still street race somewhere.
• 44:29
  I'm kind of scared now that we're talking about this, like
• 44:31
  they're it's coming down, they're going to come, we're
• 44:34
  running out. Well, that car for sure I think
• 44:36
  is running. We're running out.
• 44:37
  The fact that you see 240 SXS more commonly on the road than
• 44:41
  you see SRT4 is fucking. Insane.
• 44:42
  We're running out of cool stuff and it's going to start with
• 44:45
  those maybe. They didn't make a lot of them
• 44:46
  or something. We're going to look that up.
• 44:48
  Brand they. Made a bunch of.
• 44:50
  Because like, I felt like they were all over the damn in favor.
• 44:53
  How many neon SRT fours did they make?
• 44:56
  Yeah, or sell. And then find out how many 240 S
• 44:58
  thirteens were made. I don't know man, like.
• 45:02
  Because people in the drift community, they always think
• 45:04
  like, oh, we're going to run out.
• 45:05
  Yeah, I think about this 15. Years ago, yeah.
• 45:07
  I wake up in the middle of the night like 10.
• 45:09
  There's not going to be any more 2 Jay ZS like yeah, I got.
• 45:12
  To get one now. Meanwhile, you can buy one.
• 45:14
  I got to buy an aristo just to have the motors.
• 45:16
  You might had from a Toyota, he says 0.
• 45:18
  Really. Yeah, no.
• 45:20
  Look up now look up USA just to make this easier because just
• 45:25
  ask AI how many two 40s were made in the USS 13.
• 45:30
  There we go SRT4. It says more than 25,000 were
• 45:33
  made in the US. Holy shit.
• 45:37
  That's a lot. That's a little.
• 45:38
  No, that's a That's a decent amount of cars.
• 45:40
  That's a that's a decent amount of cars because I'm pretty sure
• 45:42
  two 40s are going to. Be around the same.
• 45:43
  Where are they? I bet there's like some way more
• 45:47
  that has like 2 way on them there's.
• 45:49
  Literally hundreds. There's 10s of thousands more.
• 45:53
  Are you? Crazy. 25,000 cars.
• 45:56
  I was very wrong. I probably know 25,000 people.
• 45:59
  You'd give them all a neon I would like.
• 46:02
  So S thirteens you're looking at 11120, fifties over 100,000 /
• 46:10
  100,000 and neon SRT fours is 1/4 of that.
• 46:14
  OK, so that's where all the I. Guess.
• 46:17
  So damn, so two 40s. All right, look up for now.
• 46:20
  Running out then. Look up second Gen.
• 46:22
  Eclipse. When you guys were street racing
• 46:25
  and like Hunts Point and stuff, I guess, were there like
• 46:28
  American cars, like, you know, no big body?
• 46:32
  There would there would be like one out of 20 that would come
• 46:35
  out, usually the Fox body Mustangs.
• 46:38
  Five OS. Yeah, but the, the majority of
• 46:41
  them were the Halo cars, bro. You had FDS, you had Supras
• 46:48
  starlets, you had starlets, you had the, the Punto Ochos, the
• 46:53
  old Corollas with like Rotary engines.
• 46:55
  Like that's, that's what was the trigger for me when I like every
• 46:58
  car that I liked was the JDM car.
• 47:00
  I was like, and I didn't even know that there were Toyotas or
• 47:02
  whatever. Yeah.
• 47:04
  I like this. I like this, I like this.
• 47:05
  And then I just did my research and I'm like, oh shit, I like
• 47:08
  Japanese cars. There were a bunch of E 30s
• 47:09
  there too. Back in the day.
• 47:11
  There used to be this crazy, crazy rivalry.
• 47:14
  It was like a yellow FD and an E30M3 that every weekend they
• 47:19
  were going at it. But.
• 47:20
  That was prob that was probably they stole, but that.
• 47:24
  BMWs got to be kind of slow, no? Yeah, I guess so.
• 47:27
  I don't know. I feel like BMWs.
• 47:28
  Are slow. I mean, it was.
• 47:29
  Until see I don't know what I'm talking about.
• 47:31
  E36 it was just the boxy 1, not the old one, the boxy 1.
• 47:34
  I feel like BMWs have been slow until they went to that V-81.
• 47:37
  That shit is also slow. What is it the 5:40?
• 47:42
  No like the. Or the E90M3 that that's also
• 47:45
  slow, but the one J will walk that shit.
• 47:47
  Really. Yeah.
• 47:48
  Put AV8IN it and it's still slow.
• 47:50
  Yeah, it sounds fucking phenomenal though, I'll tell you
• 47:53
  that. Because those engines were
• 47:54
  always like 303 hundred less, 300 or less.
• 47:58
  And then they had the V8 and I was like, oh I.
• 47:59
  Guess it's fast. Yeah, it's like 350.
• 48:02
  That's crazy. No, it's got to be a little more
• 48:03
  than that. The 36 was like what, 333 or
• 48:05
  something? Yeah, I like it because I don't
• 48:07
  care about how fast it is. But for drag racing, yeah, I
• 48:10
  would not want a BMW. Yeah, so it was Turbo.
• 48:12
  Grand Nationalist used to come out.
• 48:14
  Oh shit. Or Rivieras, Buick, Riviera.
• 48:17
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
• 48:19
  Buick Riviera. Yeah, so they'll like shove the
• 48:22
  Grand National motor, Yeah, because.
• 48:24
  It's business. What the hell is a Buick?
• 48:25
  Thank you, Malcolm. Yeah, yeah.
• 48:29
  From. Like 88.
• 48:30
  I went to 89 or 90. Dude, look at the hips.
• 48:32
  Wait, wait, wait. Before we move forward, look at
• 48:34
  the hips on the one on the 2nd row.
• 48:35
  Damn it. Oh yeah, there you go.
• 48:39
  This. This.
• 48:40
  Would be. This would move.
• 48:41
  God damn yo it's in Jade. It's in.
• 48:44
  It's in Japan. Oh wow.
• 48:46
  Oh yeah, you, you. Oh, you're, you're going to
• 48:49
  Japan soon, right? You might actually see this
• 48:51
  thing. Yo-yo can I get?
• 48:53
  The old school cars out there, right?
• 48:55
  Not, not this, not this one, right?
• 48:57
  Damn, how how the how the mighty have fallen.
• 49:00
  Maybe don't know. That was the next Gen.
• 49:02
  Not in Japan, but. Jesus Christ it.
• 49:05
  Was like some a bunch of them. I remember seeing like a 70 Nova
• 49:09
  that was amazing. Yeah.
• 49:11
  So you would see some American cars here and there, but like it
• 49:15
  was all the Civic spec then and the Toyotas.
• 49:17
  And this would have been a turbo car, so it would have been in
• 49:21
  that. And then when the EVO came out,
• 49:24
  that was it. It was just like, all right,
• 49:26
  let's go. It was just now and everybody.
• 49:29
  Now it's a 4G63 and it's all-wheel drive.
• 49:31
  Evo no wing you do not fuck. With Evo no wing, yeah.
• 49:34
  I love the wing though. Can't take.
• 49:36
  Yeah, same. You would just see it though
• 49:37
  with no wing and you would be like.
• 49:40
  Yeah, or you see a Honda Civic on the highway and you look in
• 49:42
  your rear view and it's got the front mounted don't even like.
• 49:45
  Don't even try it. Yeah, it's like it's only.
• 49:47
  Got one. Do you guys see?
• 49:48
  One headlight and it's shaking and there's a fun amount.
• 49:50
  Don't fuck with that guy. I don't know her, her name is on
• 49:53
  Instagram, but she's singing about all these cars and she's
• 49:56
  like, oh, I. Think I would have heard of this
• 49:58
  She's. Like you drive a Honda Civic,
• 49:59
  drive a Honda Civic and she talks about that car that you
• 50:03
  just described. It's like, you know, don't fuck
• 50:05
  with the two Tomohans because. It was just.
• 50:08
  Fast I was. Like saddled the Goldie songs
• 50:11
  that she's six Yeah. I forgot the the person though
• 50:13
  but well. I don't even want to imagine
• 50:15
  with the 241. Oh.
• 50:15
  She they went for 242. That's how I found her.
• 50:18
  You. Could actually pay her to make a
• 50:20
  sauce. She's like you drive her 340,
• 50:22
  she was making fun of all like different panel colors and how
• 50:25
  it hasn't moved for like 3 years out of your driveway and all
• 50:27
  this other stuff. How do?
• 50:27
  We get that. Bro, I'm right now what are you
• 50:30
  doing? We need.
• 50:31
  To get that for first send. Me one of them.
• 50:33
  I know that, I just didn't. Hilarious I.
• 50:34
  Don't know which one it was. Damn bro SRT fours.
• 50:38
  I don't know. I know someone.
• 50:40
  One of my best friends had one of those and he would take me to
• 50:43
  like all the SRT4 meets and we would go street racing with it
• 50:46
  and he would always lose and he'd be like, I understand why
• 50:49
  my car feels so slow when I drive it alone.
• 50:52
  It's like the fastest car. And I'm like, I don't know bro.
• 50:54
  Maybe it's just something you know when you get nervous when
• 50:56
  you're racing these guys. Maybe I don't know but.
• 50:59
  SRT4 aside from it being has the fancy engine that should had
• 51:04
  also all-wheel. No, no.
• 51:06
  It's front wheel drive. Just front wheel.
• 51:07
  Yeah, Buck? Yep.
• 51:08
  That 'cause if it was all, that'd be a different story.
• 51:11
  Oh my God, imagine. Yeah, that'd be different.
• 51:14
  I was I always saw those when like when we launched, always
• 51:17
  had some crazy torques. Yeah, yeah, that was the main
• 51:20
  problem. That's good.
• 51:22
  Yeah, yeah. Those front wheel drive cars.
• 51:26
  Are man. And then two 40s came out.
• 51:30
  Well, they were around, but they were drifting up being the. 240
• 51:33
  wave like yeah. Yeah.
• 51:35
  Yeah, then racing didn't matter anymore for us, I mean.
• 51:38
  Back then two 40s were like 500 bucks bro.
• 51:40
  Dude I got I got a shell in a bunch of other two 40s for like
• 51:43
  sub $1000. It was great.
• 51:45
  It went on like that for and it hit mine.
• 51:48
  How much are two 40s these days? Like I've had mine for like 100
• 51:51
  years so. 5000 for a stock one if you're lucky.
• 51:55
  A year. S13.
• 51:57
  Oh wow. 5000 for a stock, remember when we would like it
• 51:59
  would be 5000 for a swapped one? Yeah.
• 52:01
  And that was like 2010. Damn.
• 52:04
  Now it's 5000 for a stock 1. And that's like kind of if
• 52:07
  you're lucky, like it, it's probably not great.
• 52:09
  Yeah. Oh wow.
• 52:10
  And then and then you got people selling them for fucking 15
• 52:12
  grand. Oh my.
• 52:14
  Gosh, like in stock form, dude, yeah, that's bad.
• 52:17
  It's kind of weird that the stock certified pre owned
• 52:21
  looking cars are the ones that push the price.
• 52:25
  It makes sense to me because that's the one I want, you know
• 52:27
  what I mean? So it makes sense to me.
• 52:28
  But yeah, I know what you're saying.
• 52:29
  Like like all the parts like Josh Deleese was posting his car
• 52:33
  up. I forgot if it was like 50.
• 52:36
  Bro, he just got it. He so I'm I'm on Facebook one
• 52:39
  I'm never on Facebook. I never look at cars.
• 52:41
  OK, For some reason I'm on there and this car's in there and I'm
• 52:44
  like, it's like. One of the ones not.
• 52:47
  And I'm like, I'm like, damn, it was like 5.
• 52:50
  It was like. 5 or I saw this up 6.
• 52:51
  Grand and it was a black hatch and I was like it looks die.
• 52:54
  It looks like it hasn't been fucked with.
• 52:56
  I'm like, honestly, I said obo. I was like, if I had money right
• 53:00
  now, I'd probably go buy this for no fucking reason, just
• 53:02
  because it's like, I feel like they're running out.
• 53:04
  Yeah. And then Josh calls me the next
• 53:06
  day. Josh Elise from Front St.
• 53:07
  He's like, yo, I found a car. I'm like, is it a black fucking
• 53:12
  hatch? He's like, yeah, I'm like, how
• 53:14
  much did you fucking pay for it? And he told me.
• 53:16
  I don't know what it was. It was a good price.
• 53:17
  No, no, no, don't, don't. And and I was like, fuck, man.
• 53:22
  I was like, I'm glad you got it cuz, you know, I was looking at
• 53:25
  it last night and I never look at cars.
• 53:27
  Yeah. Like it's dangerous.
• 53:29
  The Facebook marketplace, bro. It's.
• 53:31
  Way dangerous. I'll say this right now.
• 53:32
  Most of the people listening on this podcast right now have a
• 53:35
  real problem. Oh yeah.
• 53:36
  Right before they go to bed, they check Facebook.
• 53:38
  Oh, I took. This in the morning for you when
• 53:40
  I wake up, come. On now.
• 53:42
  There's a great toilet scroller. Oh yeah, absolutely.
• 53:46
  Yeah, do that and like whatever it is that meta Facebook does.
• 53:49
  Do you know exactly what I want and I get?
• 53:53
  Triggered when I see like JDM cars that are going for like
• 53:55
  $150,000. I'm like, bro, what are you
• 53:58
  doing? Yeah, I've been looking for
• 54:00
  motorcycles and it shows a 240 up and I'm like, I don't want
• 54:03
  this but. Yeah, I guess.
• 54:04
  Where are my CBS? Yeah.
• 54:07
  Like when you type. I hate that it's smart enough to
• 54:10
  do all of that and then for some reason when I'm typing in IS300
• 54:15
  coilovers or something like that, it is showing me
• 54:18
  everything but. Oh yeah, yeah.
• 54:21
  Oh yeah, it'll show me. A.
• 54:22
  Camper van, it'll show me just pretty much a bunch of random
• 54:27
  shit. Yeah, until.
• 54:30
  The algorithm is crazy though. But but it's getting me to spend
• 54:32
  money. Nah, man, I lived there.
• 54:34
  Just it's like back in the day when you would like go to the
• 54:37
  magazine shop and like see what's for sale in the back,
• 54:40
  like. Yeah, it's kind of the same.
• 54:42
  Yeah, it's just, it's like the modern version of that Auto
• 54:45
  Trader. Yeah, I was all up in that too,
• 54:47
  man. Like.
• 54:48
  I luckily I didn't have Auto Trader but.
• 54:50
  Dude, it was a free Craigslist. It was a free.
• 54:52
  Magazine at the grocery store. Yeah, I never, I never really
• 54:54
  got into it. You know right now what's a
• 54:57
  really good resource? It's Craigslist.
• 54:59
  I'm sure it is. It's for old people, yes, who do
• 55:02
  not know that there is a Facebook parking.
• 55:04
  Place and they don't even know the the price.
• 55:06
  Their shit all there for their basic price.
• 55:08
  Stuck in the 90s. I saw this Land Cruiser being
• 55:11
  sold for like 8 grand right? I'm like, yo, if I had the
• 55:15
  space, yeah. Which Which Land Cruiser?
• 55:18
  It's the 80. Like 90s there were 8 grand.
• 55:22
  This guy, it was mint. Mine I had, I had an 80.
• 55:26
  I loved that thing. It had an ARB bumper on her on
• 55:29
  it, Old Man Emu lift and a bunch of other bullshit on it.
• 55:34
  That's right Frankie. That's right, Old Man Emu.
• 55:36
  These are good. These are good parts.
• 55:37
  I know Old Man Emu. Dude like crazy, man. 3 grand. 3
• 55:43
  grand. Yeah, my buddy's family owned it
• 55:45
  for mad long. I went there, put a battery in
• 55:47
  it, did the brakes and drove it home.
• 55:51
  Like it was like a mile to my house.
• 55:52
  Today is like 15 grand, now are. You serious?
• 55:56
  14, yeah. Knock em.
• 55:58
  What does this one look like? Those kind of markup too, not
• 56:01
  just two. 40s bro that's FJ80. Yeah, but I but if you you, you
• 56:06
  got a early one if it was AFJ. But dude, the.
• 56:10
  Second photo. The the third one, the third
• 56:11
  one, it looked just like that beauty.
• 56:14
  I had that same bumper. I had the print suit or this big
• 56:17
  rack on the top like it was sick.
• 56:20
  Dude. I like that brand.
• 56:21
  I had 30 threes on it. That's like the perfect daily.
• 56:24
  In Japan they they saw they do conversion.
• 56:27
  Oh yeah, they do the circle lights in the front.
• 56:29
  Yeah, that's from the 70. Yeah, 7072.
• 56:32
  Yeah, what? How do you guys feel about the
• 56:33
  new one? Yo, it was that same color too,
• 56:38
  Malcolm, the one you're hovering over.
• 56:41
  It's not a Land Cruiser. Yeah, I feel like it's a
• 56:43
  forerunner, you know, like a modern forerunner 'cause it's.
• 56:47
  Me not knowing shit about Land Cruisers, I'm like, oh, this car
• 56:49
  actually looks good. Yeah, like compared to other
• 56:51
  shit these days. It's the design is nice, but
• 56:54
  it's like it's. Like I like that it's boxy a
• 56:56
  little. Bit, yeah.
• 56:58
  Yeah, but it is just boxy. That's all I see.
• 57:01
  Yeah, it's literally just the Lexus.
• 57:03
  Version of this that's. What everyone said that Lexus.
• 57:05
  Is quite nice, but it's still not a Land Cruiser like this.
• 57:09
  The 300 series in I think they have that here.
• 57:12
  They only have the Lexus version here.
• 57:15
  Oh, that's the one I like, I think.
• 57:16
  Yeah, it's the biggest grill in the history of all grills.
• 57:19
  It's like a massive But Japan has the 300 series Land Cruiser
• 57:23
  and that is super nice. The one I like is honestly.
• 57:28
  Oh, I know what you're talking about.
• 57:30
  He pulls this one up just to make sure it's the same one.
• 57:32
  Yeah. Oh, no, see, I'm not, No.
• 57:34
  Is that what I'm thinking of? The one I'm thinking of.
• 57:36
  Is, yeah, I think this is it, yeah, the 200.
• 57:39
  The 201 is the one that looks like everybody in Dubai has it.
• 57:43
  So his is a yes, that's the one. It's no.
• 57:46
  His is 100. Yeah, I have the 100, yeah, the
• 57:48
  LX 470, yeah. This is the one that I like
• 57:51
  right now. I'm like, Oh my God.
• 57:52
  Yeah, I see. This is the the 200, right?
• 57:54
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. This might be like I mean 18.
• 57:58
  It is very, very nice. Now isn't there like an old one
• 58:01
  that they still produce in other countries?
• 58:04
  I think so. The the Prado or something like
• 58:08
  that, right? I think they still make it in
• 58:10
  South America. Yeah, there there's a couple of
• 58:12
  models that are still made in like South America. 79 series
• 58:15
  and then South. Africa.
• 58:16
  Japan actually re released it with the old body but the
• 58:20
  interior is all new. That's modern.
• 58:21
  I think that's what I was looking at.
• 58:23
  Yeah, yeah. I was like this is.
• 58:24
  Something like this. This one.
• 58:25
  Yeah, I was like this. Is something, Yeah.
• 58:27
  Wait, that that would do numbers here.
• 58:31
  Oh. Yeah, for sure.
• 58:32
  And of course, we don't get it. Yeah, we don't get the the cool
• 58:34
  stuff. So yeah, wait, yeah.
• 58:36
  Yeah. Did they release that?
• 58:37
  And the new landfills are at the same time, I think.
• 58:40
  And they sell out so quick. I think it has a diesel in it or
• 58:43
  some. Shit, but what?
• 58:44
  That's even. Better.
• 58:45
  Yeah. I don't know why we don't get
• 58:47
  cool stuff. It's such a bull Pearl Harbor
• 58:49
  house. It's so cool.
• 58:51
  They're how much holes they hold, right?
• 58:53
  There. Shit.
• 58:55
  Hiroshima. Yeah, you get it.
• 58:56
  All the coolest shit. Fuck y'all.
• 58:57
  Yeah, you can't get an SR20. Fuck you.
• 58:59
  Yeah. They were like, remember that
• 59:00
  one time or two times? Yeah.
• 59:02
  Yeah, you're gonna have to import this.
• 59:03
  Shit, that makes sense. Hey, it makes sense.
• 59:05
  Dude, now I'm just remembering how great that Land Cruiser was.
• 59:08
  It wasn't the fact that it was not the fact that it was.
• 59:12
  Everybody knows it's a great off rotor, blah blah blah blah blah
• 59:16
  gets horrible gas mileage, Horrible.
• 59:19
  I think I got like 11 or 12 miles per gallon but been a Land
• 59:23
  Cruiser. What engines are in those?
• 59:25
  The one I had was 1F. It was a yeah.
• 59:28
  Was it AV8 or V6? No, mine was an inline 6.
• 59:32
  What's my fuel injected single Cam I think?
• 59:35
  What's, what's the one that I have?
• 59:36
  Is it one UZ or something like that?
• 59:38
  Two UZ. 2 UZ. So that's a great.
• 59:40
  It's AV eight. Yeah, Yeah, that one's good.
• 59:42
  This one, the one I had, it would not tow.
• 59:44
  Yeah, so it was faster. It was faster than the old
• 59:49
  inline 6, which was nuts. It was even slower than mine.
• 59:53
  My buddy Tom had one but that truck was so like well made like
• 1:00:00
  it's. The best this tank?
• 1:00:01
  I was in Nissan. Chris was working on something.
• 1:00:04
  I remember because I was like, dude, my ACS fucked up.
• 1:00:07
  Like I don't know what to do and the compressor is going nuts.
• 1:00:10
  It's a big dealership shop. I closed the door.
• 1:00:13
  It was silent in there. I was like, wow, what the fuck?
• 1:00:18
  This is amazing. I mean every Toyota that comes
• 1:00:20
  in here and we work on, I'm like the fucking metal is so insane
• 1:00:24
  compared to the Nissan. 'S bull cloud is crazy.
• 1:00:26
  Yeah, I'm like, what were they building this for?
• 1:00:28
  Fucking war? Like that's how I feel.
• 1:00:30
  Every time I'm under one was near the strut tower.
• 1:00:32
  I'm like what was this? Being made for.
• 1:00:35
  Yeah. Dude just durable as a fuck
• 1:00:37
  dude. Like if you hit someone with
• 1:00:38
  that thing, it's probably not getting fucked up.
• 1:00:39
  I hit so much stuff with that bumper dude I hit.
• 1:00:42
  A lot of stuff with your car and it looks.
• 1:00:44
  Still work. No, no.
• 1:00:44
  But when I had the ARV bumper, dude, garbage can, yeah, just
• 1:00:48
  hit the fucking garbage can. Like the Creseda was dude,
• 1:00:51
  everything like the wells, everything like under the
• 1:00:54
  fenders, I'm like this shit is. That Creseda is so beautiful.
• 1:00:57
  Yeah, yeah, I'm. Like, wow.
• 1:00:59
  I like that. You saw?
• 1:01:00
  The sounds in the back. The tune system, the sound
• 1:01:04
  system, the bad. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:01:05
  Did you? Forget you did that.
• 1:01:07
  I looked at it the other day. I was showing someone and I was
• 1:01:09
  like damn, this course got sick. He's.
• 1:01:11
  Growing. We just don't drive.
• 1:01:13
  It I want a sound system in my car now because of that thing
• 1:01:16
  like I just licked it. Yeah.
• 1:01:18
  Do it dude. Yeah, as long as you make it
• 1:01:19
  look good, then it's like everything else is secondary.
• 1:01:22
  It's so nice. I'm like as long as it didn't
• 1:01:24
  matter if it works. I'm like, yeah, it looks good
• 1:01:27
  so. But after we made it look good,
• 1:01:29
  I was like, OK, cool, this is awesome.
• 1:01:30
  Now we can enjoy it that way. I hate when there's like just
• 1:01:32
  Subs sitting in someone's. Trunk.
• 1:01:33
  Yeah, for sure. That's why I took them out.
• 1:01:36
  Yeah, that Land Cruiser came with two twelves in the trunk.
• 1:01:39
  And it's like in a box. It was so loud bro.
• 1:01:42
  Like there's no divider in the Land Cruiser.
• 1:01:44
  Shaking everything. It's just what?
• 1:01:46
  Kind of music were you playing in there?
• 1:01:47
  I don't even really know 2000 and what year was that 17 it's
• 1:01:52
  like. Everybody, everybody getting
• 1:01:53
  tipsy. Fetty Wap probably Fetty Wap
• 1:01:55
  dude. Trap Queen was probably the last
• 1:01:58
  thing in that bitch. Yeah, no.
• 1:02:00
  And I. Drove that back to lake.
• 1:02:01
  George, no coolant. What?
• 1:02:04
  None. What?
• 1:02:06
  None. Bulletproof, dude.
• 1:02:08
  First, the engines. Are good.
• 1:02:09
  The chargers are good. There you go.
• 1:02:12
  At 55 would not overheat. You go 56, fucking thing starts
• 1:02:17
  climbing. What the fuck?
• 1:02:19
  Holy shit. I guess 55 all the way home.
• 1:02:22
  Yeah, I never put sound systems in my cars because I didn't want
• 1:02:26
  some. Crazy, I know, but I always
• 1:02:28
  wanted it. But I was like, like I.
• 1:02:30
  Don't know, like when I was growing up in the 90s, my sister
• 1:02:34
  had a Honda Civic EF manual. That's basically one of the cars
• 1:02:39
  she taught me how to drive stick with.
• 1:02:40
  And there was a massive sound system in there and like just
• 1:02:44
  drive around for no reason blasting music.
• 1:02:47
  And that was like back when like, you know, that was the,
• 1:02:50
  the PDD era, the Biggie Smalls era, before we knew like, you
• 1:02:54
  know, the no DD stuff. I was waiting, yeah.
• 1:02:57
  I was like, how is he going? To be, we kind of knew back
• 1:03:00
  then, but it was, there was no Internet, so it was just like,
• 1:03:02
  it was just like a thing, it's like.
• 1:03:04
  Diddy Parties. Yeah, it was like.
• 1:03:05
  Wait, what do you mean? You kind of knew that was like a
• 1:03:07
  thing? You were like man, everybody's
• 1:03:08
  lyrics bro, like. There's like everyone's mad
• 1:03:11
  surprised. I'm like did y'all hear any of
• 1:03:13
  the lyrics over the songs over the past few years bro Like
• 1:03:16
  they're literally telling you this shit like.
• 1:03:19
  Yeah, yeah, he's right though. The Pete Diddy's.
• 1:03:21
  Shit, like they say it like, you know, so but anyway, going back
• 1:03:25
  to having a sound system, you just cruise like, Oh yeah, blast
• 1:03:28
  the system, nothing bad. That's it.
• 1:03:30
  And then everyone looks and they're like, yo, that's dope.
• 1:03:32
  Or they're like dance to the music or whatever.
• 1:03:34
  And I'm like, you know, my child in the 90s.
• 1:03:36
  So I'm like, you want to put a system in the 2:40 and just like
• 1:03:40
  cruise the city they. Probably make some nice boxes
• 1:03:42
  for the back. Right though, right?
• 1:03:44
  And Chris loves installing sound system, so.
• 1:03:46
  Oh, does he? Yeah.
• 1:03:47
  About to come back. Chris is nice at the really
• 1:03:50
  anything where it requires what. Is Chris?
• 1:03:52
  What can he not do? Do you like this?
• 1:03:54
  Kind of like nothing. Mission.
• 1:03:56
  I don't know, maybe painting, but I don't know dude.
• 1:03:58
  Chris would be an amazing. He would be good at it, yeah.
• 1:04:01
  He just probably doesn't know how to do.
• 1:04:02
  It oh, oh, you you think he oh, he maybe prepping he would be
• 1:04:05
  worse, No. No fucking yeah.
• 1:04:09
  Yeah, perfect. I think for like your system,
• 1:04:11
  let's definitely do it. It's.
• 1:04:12
  It's I'm, I'm just do that, yeah.
• 1:04:14
  I think the reality things is for a lot of us who got into
• 1:04:16
  cars and stuff, the first thing we did was put a radio.
• 1:04:19
  On right yeah they got all in that ship bro, it's like.
• 1:04:22
  Starter for like confidence, you know, so let's let's do
• 1:04:24
  something. Yeah, I might have to do it.
• 1:04:26
  Damn. I always wanted to have the
• 1:04:28
  sound system where they had like, you know, on Pimp My Ride,
• 1:04:31
  they would make the boxes like they would, they would have
• 1:04:34
  somebody, they would have a full blown woodworking shop so that
• 1:04:38
  they could make. They'd have a fish tank in the
• 1:04:40
  back. Too They would.
• 1:04:41
  They would make stuff out of the wood, then put fiberglasses.
• 1:04:44
  I still got the head unit that has the Dolphins and shoes.
• 1:04:46
  Yeah, like. I still got that joint, that
• 1:04:49
  car, so I'm like. I think that's a pretty another.
• 1:04:52
  Desirable thing. It is.
• 1:04:53
  Desirable. Yeah.
• 1:04:54
  Dreamcast. Yeah.

• 1:06:23
  I'm like you can get the original St. glow.
• 1:06:25
  Wasn't this like extremely ricey?
• 1:06:27
  Like when the first Fast and Furious came out?
• 1:06:29
  They're like, how could you do this?
• 1:06:30

  Bad now. Plus, not the welfare check.
• 1:06:45
  Well, here's the thing. I could buy a turbo.

  I never wanted to put this on a drift car because I don't know
• 1:06:49
  what's going to happen when you fucking.
• 1:06:51
  That's the problem. You know how many things I look?
• 1:06:53
  On the way here, yeah, they look so.
• 1:06:54
  Cool. Yeah, that's the only underglow
• 1:06:56
  I would do dial. Points.

  On a drift car on those what is it?
• 1:07:00
  170 each. Imagine you scrape one right
• 1:07:04
  immediately, you know, fuck. And the coolest part about this
• 1:07:08

  I want to refinish the tail lights because they're a little
• 1:10:48
  crusty. I saw like.
• 1:10:49
  Overspray or something on that? Yeah, and then the bread, right?
• 1:10:53
  The bread. Yeah, so the interior, so I got
• 1:10:56
  the the brid or bride fabric, I got the authentic fabric because
• 1:11:00
  like brid used to sell that back in the days, but then a bunch of
• 1:11:04
  bootleg, you know, companies started making them so they
• 1:11:06
  stopped selling them to just like normies.
• 1:11:09
  So I've been wanting to get this forever and then I was at to buy
• 1:11:15
  it. Now you have to like apply and
• 1:11:17
  be approved to get it. Oh, wow, I was trying to get it
• 1:11:20
  from from some friends and I was at weekfest a few years ago and
• 1:11:24
  just saying the same thing I'm saying now.
• 1:11:26
  And then one of my really good friends, his name is Daniel.
• 1:11:29
  He's he's got one of the the best evos in the area.
• 1:11:33
  His his Instagram is JDM motivation.
• 1:11:36
  I don't know if you want to take back his EVO.
• 1:11:38
  He's he's an OG like I think he's he was 1.
• 1:11:40
  He bought his evo like brand new and he still has it.
• 1:11:42
  But anyway, so he has layers and layers and layers of this fabric
• 1:11:47
  and he's like, dude, I got you. You want some?
• 1:11:48
  I'm like for sure. He was just like passing by like
• 1:11:52
  and while I was telling this story, so I have the real, the
• 1:11:56
  real authentic fabric and I just need somebody to put it on so.
• 1:12:00
  You're gonna have to find. Yeah, I know this car.
• 1:12:02
  Yeah, that I don't think, Chris. Would be.
• 1:12:04
  He actually just bought an S15 too so.
• 1:12:06
  Hey Chinzo took this. Photo Yes, Chinzo, another OG in
• 1:12:10
  the game. Look at the color.
• 1:12:11
  Look at the color of the BMW in the back.
• 1:12:12
  Yeah, the gold clown. Shoes yellow it's.
• 1:12:16
  A clown shoe. Version yes love it dude, that
• 1:12:19
  grassroots event you guys though I still haven't made it over
• 1:12:21
  there but every time I see media of it I'm like.
• 1:12:23
  That's the best event, so. It gets prettier and prettier.
• 1:12:26
  That's great. You guys have been killing it.
• 1:12:28
  I. Love, I love that show.
• 1:12:29
  Yeah, we'll bring it back next year because we wanted to do see
• 1:12:33
  the closer, but we weren't able to do it.
• 1:12:35
  So we're going to do the season opener again.
• 1:12:37
  Your car would do cool over there.
• 1:12:39
  Where's the grass line? What is it called?
• 1:12:41
  Grassroots. Grassroots.
• 1:12:42
  It's a little confusing because the event is called the
• 1:12:46
  Grassroots Season Opener and Season closer.
• 1:12:49
  And we do. It is a collaboration with
• 1:12:52
  friends John and Eric. Shout out to to them and they're
• 1:12:57
  they also have a brand called Grassroots.
• 1:12:59
  So it's a little confusing, but the the name of the show
• 1:13:01
  specifically is a season opener season of Closer of Grassroots
• 1:13:05
  and it's in Clark, NJ. I think I remember someone was
• 1:13:08
  going to that earlier this year. You had it this year?
• 1:13:09
  Yeah. Yeah, we had it earlier this
• 1:13:10
  year. Yeah, I remember.
• 1:13:11
  I remember that was that was a big deal.
• 1:13:13
  Yeah, it's, it's always a stressful event cuz like it's,
• 1:13:17
  it's in the on the grass and it's always like weather
• 1:13:19
  permeable. Oh my God.
• 1:13:21
  So we are always just like you can't put the.
• 1:13:24
  Cars on there with mud and. Then like the the parks, the
• 1:13:28
  people that run the place, you know, they're always really good
• 1:13:31
  to us. But like, you know, obviously
• 1:13:33
  they don't want us to like ruin their grass by putting a bunch
• 1:13:35
  of cars on it after it rains. So it's so stressful.
• 1:13:40
  Yeah, like when you know, like when you have an I don't know if
• 1:13:42
  you guys throw events for like or outside, but like, or if you
• 1:13:45
  go to a drift event, for example and then you're just like the
• 1:13:49
  day that it's that the the weather is available in the app
• 1:13:53
  He's. Checking like oh I was.
• 1:13:54
  Like oh shit oh there's sun OK cool.
• 1:13:57
  And then like 2 days later it's rain and then it's sun again.
• 1:13:59
  It's like so stressful. It's like you can't even trust
• 1:14:01
  that weather. I know it's like and.
• 1:14:02
  Like for for the opener, I remember spending pretty much my
• 1:14:06
  entire Friday afternoon developing an argument for this
• 1:14:10
  event so that Eric can take it to the parks people.
• 1:14:14
  Yeah, I'm doing like basically math on how to measure like
• 1:14:19
  drainage points. And all sort of real on.
• 1:14:22
  A golf course. Because shit.
• 1:14:25
  Yeah, they were like, oh, we can't have this.
• 1:14:27
  We can't have to do this. So we're like, we're developing
• 1:14:30
  like arguments to be able to do it, yeah.
• 1:14:32
  Oh wow, this year, unfortunately, there was a
• 1:14:34
  monsoon day before the fucking. Event of.
• 1:14:38
  All years and we had people coming from everywhere and all
• 1:14:43
  types of cars. We had like an A saline S7
• 1:14:46
  there. We had like a freaking rig with
• 1:14:49
  a bunch of different like Euro cars on it.
• 1:14:52
  And of course, you know, all the locals were like some of the
• 1:14:55
  cleanest JDM and Euro cars in the country really.
• 1:14:58
  And then people just like like committed to flying in and
• 1:15:02
  making Rd. trips and all the stuff.
• 1:15:04
  And then the monsoon happened the day before and it was a big
• 1:15:06
  risk. Like they were like, we're we
• 1:15:09
  might have to cancel this guys. And we're like, no, we cannot
• 1:15:13
  cancel. This.
• 1:15:14
  So they're just worried about you destroying the grass.
• 1:15:16
  So they're like. I mean, it's fair, you know,
• 1:15:18
  like it's a beautiful field, so we get it.
• 1:15:20
  But like the next day it was, it was a beautiful day.
• 1:15:23
  And we got lucky because it barely rained on that field.
• 1:15:26
  Like the Farks, the the groundskeeper looked around and
• 1:15:29
  they were like, oh, actually it's fine.
• 1:15:30
  Yeah, you guys can do it. We're like.
• 1:15:34
  Thanks dude. Now when you guys throw these
• 1:15:37
  events, do you have do you have a backup plan?
• 1:15:40
  I know the backup plan is probably not good, but you don't
• 1:15:42
  even have any. No man, we just kind.
• 1:15:45
  Of nothing bro so these. Situations.
• 1:15:49
  We basically went out based the spot for both days or the back
• 1:15:54
  of the. Next day, but okay, I see you're
• 1:15:56
  saying. But yeah, if it rained enough
• 1:16:00
  that we had to cancel the first day, then the second day is
• 1:16:02
  probably still gonna be too right.
• 1:16:04
  So yeah, but we would try to make it work somehow.
• 1:16:07
  But I mean, we had one grassroots where it actually
• 1:16:10
  rained during the event and it was fine.
• 1:16:14
  Like, you know. Like getting them because now
• 1:16:16
  you just got to get them out. Yeah.
• 1:16:18
  Yeah, but that was fine. Like, it wasn't even a big deal.
• 1:16:21
  It was like a little passing drizzle and people were like, oh
• 1:16:23
  shit, let's get out of here. And then it actually stopped
• 1:16:25
  raining and we were fine. But yeah, and then of course,
• 1:16:27
  it's not just all grass. There's paths that yeah, have
• 1:16:30
  concrete and stuff so cars can. Can make them, yeah.
• 1:16:33
  Yeah. Now, now you guys, not to get
• 1:16:35
  into the details, but it really kind of blows my mind you guys
• 1:16:39
  are funding these events and you're not really.
• 1:16:41
  Do you do people pay to or? Yeah, OK, so they do.
• 1:16:45
  Some of them they do have. To some of them they do, you
• 1:16:48
  know, like we, we generally do a lot of St. events, you know,
• 1:16:52
  like we just did one over the weekend.
• 1:16:54
  The the Honda collective with, with with RAF and the not an
• 1:16:58
  island racer crew. Shout out to them.
• 1:17:01
  Those are just like, you know, St. sessions.
• 1:17:03
  But when we when we do events at venues, there is a cost and
• 1:17:08
  sometimes we have to just try to meet the costs that we.
• 1:17:11
  For a second I thought you guys were just doing this was like
• 1:17:13
  holy shit. I mean.
• 1:17:15
  Sometimes we gotta eat costs. I'm sure you do, yeah, yeah, but
• 1:17:19
  this makes a little bit more sense.
• 1:17:20
  Okay, so yeah, so like Sevens Day is?
• 1:17:23
  Kind of, yeah. It's a street session.
• 1:17:25
  Yeah, even though you guys, it doesn't feel like that when you
• 1:17:27
  go to it, it feels like it's a pretty legitimate like event.
• 1:17:31
  Listen. Thank you for saying that.
• 1:17:32
  Yeah. I mean like the anxiety that we,
• 1:17:36
  you know, we had our 10 year anniversary this year.
• 1:17:39
  Yeah, we fucking missed that one, by the way.
• 1:17:40
  We're so mad about it. But but you had it not on Sevens
• 1:17:43
  day. I have a bone to pick with you
• 1:17:44
  guys. Well, technically we did.
• 1:17:48
  When it's midnight. OK, Yeah, there it is.
• 1:17:51
  Day. Yeah, I was like, wait a minute,
• 1:17:54
  they're not even doing on 7th day.
• 1:17:55
  What the fuck? 'Cause we it was a was 7th day
• 1:17:58
  as the actual 7's day was a weekday.
• 1:18:02
  It was a Monday it. Was a Monday it?
• 1:18:03
  Was going to rain and it did rain if.
• 1:18:05
  That's the reason. OK, fine.
• 1:18:08
  Well, we. Because we, we actually like
• 1:18:11
  that. It's like, oh, we're going to
• 1:18:12
  7's day after work, you know, we all meet up at the shop and then
• 1:18:15
  we and then we ride out. Yeah, I mean that is going to
• 1:18:18
  continue. But for, for this year, we
• 1:18:20
  wanted to, you know, it was a 10 year anniversary and we, what's
• 1:18:25
  been happening with 7's day is that this is, this is like a, a,
• 1:18:29
  too much of a good thing almost where it's like there's just so
• 1:18:31
  many people that come out, which is, which is, you know, it's,
• 1:18:35
  it's a great sort of result after consistency for so many,
• 1:18:38
  so many years. But at the same time, it's like,
• 1:18:42
  OK, we need to celebrate the Rotary guys, right?
• 1:18:44
  So, so when we were planning it this year, we were like, OK, how
• 1:18:49
  can we make it so that it's a lot more sort of like focused on
• 1:18:53
  the Rotary guys and more of them can come out.
• 1:18:57
  And since it was on a Monday, a lot of the Rotary guys, you
• 1:18:59
  know, they got families, kids, you know, some of these guys are
• 1:19:02
  Ogs. Like they don't even come out
• 1:19:03
  anymore. They don't have Instagram or
• 1:19:04
  anything. So but they come out on Sundays.
• 1:19:07
  So he was like, OK, let's do, let's run it on Sunday for like
• 1:19:12
  the sort of calm portion at the park, get all the O GS out, the
• 1:19:17
  families out, have a big Rotary section and then we just run it
• 1:19:21
  through midnight and have it be like a Sevens day Midnight Run.
• 1:19:24
  Yeah, OK. And that works.
• 1:19:26
  And that's what happened. And it was kind of awesome.
• 1:19:29
  Like, hey, it was a reduced amount of cars.
• 1:19:32
  And I know some people were mad about that, like.
• 1:19:33
  Was it like a last minute curveball kind of or or was it
• 1:19:37
  like in a week in advance everyone knew that was going to
• 1:19:40
  be on? Sunday it was.
• 1:19:41
  It was. A.
• 1:19:43
  Couple weeks ago. Yeah, about two weeks or so we
• 1:19:45
  sent out the information. But the reality of things is I
• 1:19:47
  think people already know some of those spots and places.
• 1:19:50
  Yeah, to sort of weed out some of the stragglers of those who
• 1:19:53
  kind of go there for the wrong reasons.
• 1:19:55
  Yeah, only decided to do something a little bit.
• 1:19:57
  Different. Yeah.
• 1:19:58
  All of those people probably had no idea, because they weren't.
• 1:20:00
  Those were the guys that were mad at us.
• 1:20:01
  Yeah. Our DMS were full of hate.
• 1:20:05
  And why are you guys? You know what?
• 1:20:08
  What's the word like? Elitist and gatekeeping and all
• 1:20:12
  the words that because your. Cars kind of have to be because
• 1:20:15
  they're gonna ruin the event. That persons car is probably
• 1:20:18
  ugly as fuck. Yeah, they should probably stay
• 1:20:21
  home anyway. Yeah, I mean, I try to be
• 1:20:24
  inclusive because. You guys are so nice, I got to
• 1:20:28
  say it. I mean, you know, I was them
• 1:20:31
  once, right? So like, you know, I might, my
• 1:20:34
  car might not be at the state that I want it to be, but I
• 1:20:37
  still want to see some nice cars.
• 1:20:38
  So yeah. But at the same time, it's like,
• 1:20:40
  dude, if you pull up with like 10 of your homies and you guys
• 1:20:43
  are all in the same state of build, that's 10 parking spots
• 1:20:48
  that I could have gave to Rotary guys.
• 1:20:50
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:20:51
  So, you know, there's got to be a balance and life isn't fair.
• 1:20:55
  Sometimes it's not. Sure.
• 1:20:57
  Shit, it is what it is. So, you know, we definitely got
• 1:21:00
  a lot of hate, but you know, it is what it is.
• 1:21:02
  Who cares, man, you, you guys throw a great event.
• 1:21:04
  Appreciate that it's a it's a great.
• 1:21:06
  Thank you, Sir. What it stands for is great.
• 1:21:08
  So I don't think any of us, yeah, that actually know what's
• 1:21:12
  going on are mad about any of. That, but we do want to keep the
• 1:21:16
  tradition, so the next 7th day will definitely be on July 7th.
• 1:21:20
  So is that your? Is that your that's not your
• 1:21:23
  only like meat that you throw? You said a street meat like
• 1:21:28
  that's your only one that. No, right?
• 1:21:30
  So why is? That one, the one that got so
• 1:21:33
  big. It popped off on social media
• 1:21:36
  after a while because there used to be 7's day in Japan and it
• 1:21:41
  still is, but in Japan it's a lot different.
• 1:21:43
  Now they actually do 7's day in Japan the weekend before.
• 1:21:46
  It's like on the fourth you're. Probably doing this trying to do
• 1:21:48
  the same thing you guys were. Trying to do well, it was the
• 1:21:50
  weekend. They started doing it over there
• 1:21:51
  because the police in Japan would pull up to the parking
• 1:21:54
  lots and do, like, inspections right on the spot and get people
• 1:21:57
  tickets and impound cars because they got really strict.
• 1:22:00
  Yeah. And then there was like no 7's
• 1:22:03
  day and there was 7's stock in America, but there wasn't like
• 1:22:06
  7's day specifically. So one day we were with Ted at
• 1:22:10
  Regiment 0 who had the, the yellow one, the yellow RE.
• 1:22:14
  And we're like, let's do it, whatever.
• 1:22:16
  So we did it. And then it just started popping
• 1:22:19
  off on social media. And then we started seeing
• 1:22:22
  Sevens Day pop up in Texas and Miami and California and all
• 1:22:26
  this other stuff. And like, for some reason,
• 1:22:28
  Sevens Day is like the one that makes everyone come out from all
• 1:22:34
  parts of the East Coast and the country, really.
• 1:22:37
  We've had people fly over. Yeah, we've definitely
• 1:22:40
  experienced people. Flying.
• 1:22:41
  Yeah, I. Was gonna say when I heard about
• 1:22:43
  it. Stop by here.
• 1:22:44
  We're going to seven. Yeah, you guys are not from
• 1:22:47
  around here. It was literally just, it's
• 1:22:49
  cool. Yeah, that's it.
• 1:22:51
  It was so cool. It's a culture.
• 1:22:55
  You just experience something where you're like, where are we?
• 1:22:59
  Yeah, right now. And then these like Halo JDM
• 1:23:02
  cars started coming out like the first sort of Halo car that came
• 1:23:06
  out, it was non Rotary, but it was the signal auto GTR the. 34
• 1:23:11
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. You remember when we saw that
• 1:23:13
  thing? Yeah, they brought it to an FD
• 1:23:14
  event or something. Yeah, So, yeah.
• 1:23:17
  And he was driving that in the middle of the street.
• 1:23:18
  That's. Crazy.
• 1:23:22
  Like, 'cause we first met him at a first class fitment event and
• 1:23:25
  you know, we've changed information or whatever and we
• 1:23:27
  were like one of the only guys that knew What Car that was.
• 1:23:29
  Yo, dude, this is sick, whatever, whatever.
• 1:23:31
  So we so we're like, yo, bring it out for seven's day.
• 1:23:34
  Just joking. And he's like, bro, I'm going to
• 1:23:36
  send this shit and he shows up with that thing.
• 1:23:39
  Imagine seeing that driving down like the highway bro.
• 1:23:41
  And just like what the fuck, yo I, I freaked, you know, that
• 1:23:44
  night it was like a dream. I was like what the fuck?
• 1:23:47
  Why is this signal auto GTR in the middle of Manhattan right
• 1:23:50
  now? The GTR period, I feel like
• 1:23:52
  there was Remember I? Mean there's a time when you
• 1:23:54
  would see. AGTR there was a Crest over
• 1:23:57
  where we saw no skylines in any of.
• 1:23:59
  These every year. And then all of a sudden it's
• 1:24:01
  like 30, two, 3334, all of it like.
• 1:24:05
  And then I just, I remember seeing that car and also seeing
• 1:24:12
  Jay. It was another friend of ours.
• 1:24:13
  Jay Filet had a pink one. Oh yeah, yeah, I.
• 1:24:17
  Sponsored that car like I helped him bring it in.
• 1:24:19
  I. Saw.
• 1:24:21
  You guys knew Jay? Yeah.
• 1:24:22
  That car and I was like, is that a fucking R30?
• 1:24:26
  Brought that to the city too, way back before.
• 1:24:29
  Adm plate, Yeah. Those were like the central
• 1:24:31
  days, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:24:33
  Central Days. Oh fuck, am I looking at right
• 1:24:35
  now? Yeah.
• 1:24:37
  Yeah, I just, he was one of the first to do it too.
• 1:24:39
  I think that was the same night. I have a GTR out as well, yeah.
• 1:24:43
  I mean you were one of the first with the R32.
• 1:24:47
  So like, so we we learned about this 25 year rule.
• 1:24:50
  Like yeah, let's test this. Let's see if this works.
• 1:24:53
  Let's bring in the GTR. There was a Christmas 2014.
• 1:24:59
  I had a friend in Japan. His uncle worked for some of the
• 1:25:02
  auction houses. We picked Christmas Day to
• 1:25:06
  auction for GTRI was like, hmm, most Americans will not be at
• 1:25:11
  the auction house. All these will be Japanese
• 1:25:13
  bidders. Let's try this. 12 grand was my,
• 1:25:17
  was my bid, my, my, like. I think 13 grand was my my
• 1:25:20
  maximum bid. We got it for 12 and. 12 grand
• 1:25:25
  brought it over TTR. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:25:26
  And that thing was mint. It was probably so nice.
• 1:25:30
  Yeah, yeah. I mean, I learned this from
• 1:25:34
  Nostalgia Imports. Nostalgic imports, yeah.
• 1:25:37
  Yeah, yeah. So like that was like from the.
• 1:25:39
  Island. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:25:40
  I learned about the 25 year old back then and I was like, oh
• 1:25:43
  man, why didn't I do this earlier?
• 1:25:44
  Yeah, I brought some other stuff.
• 1:25:46
  What year was the car that you brought?
• 1:25:48
  It was a 90. OK, Yeah.
• 1:25:49
  So thousand 1525 years. Yeah.
• 1:25:52
  So in retrospect, I probably should have gotten a couple of
• 1:25:55
  GTS TS for like $2000. That's crazy.
• 1:25:58
  Yeah. And flipped it.
• 1:25:59
  That's probably. Yeah.
• 1:26:00
  That should have or you should have just kept the 30.
• 1:26:02
  Oh, you were grand. They were two grand.
• 1:26:05
  How fast? How fast you get rid of it?
• 1:26:07
  Oh like 6 months. Like I got offered 30.
• 1:26:11
  I mean, you came up on it, but you could have got way more.
• 1:26:14
  Definitely. Yeah, definitely.
• 1:26:15
  And I just really miss it. Well, the thing with. 2.
• 1:26:19
  The thing with these cars is like, the longer you keep them,
• 1:26:22
  the more they. Help.
• 1:26:23
  They're like appreciating a value, Like, what is this?
• 1:26:26
  This is an investment now. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:26:27
  What the fuck? Like what happened to you buy a
• 1:26:29
  car and you regret it forever because you're going to lose the
• 1:26:32
  money and now it's. Like.
• 1:26:33
  All my portfolios is. All the dream cars are now
• 1:26:36
  investments. Yeah, like I look at like stocks
• 1:26:39
  or crypto and I'm like, maybe I'll just buy a GTR.
• 1:26:42
  Oh man. Yeah, the only problem is
• 1:26:43
  you're. Driving on the street and then
• 1:26:45
  you get T bones. You just got to.
• 1:26:47
  Feature. Yeah, yeah, that's what I was
• 1:26:48
  about to say. You got to take care of it, you.
• 1:26:50
  Either got to not drive it or and.
• 1:26:52
  We live in New Jersey and you guys live in New York, both of
• 1:26:54
  those. Places.
• 1:26:55
  High risk. In.
• 1:26:58
  Insurance like super. Hot, I thought you can say
• 1:27:01
  theft, but. I feel like nowadays like.
• 1:27:05
  Although like for the insurance part, you can always maybe
• 1:27:09
  insure your car through the Grundy.
• 1:27:11
  You can insure it for a specific amount and if it does get you
• 1:27:16
  know. Mangled.
• 1:27:16
  You can get that amount like Grundy, for example, if your UTR
• 1:27:20
  is insured for say 45,050 thousand whenever God forbid
• 1:27:24
  something happens, you're you're given that amount.
• 1:27:27
  Yeah. So that's.
• 1:27:27
  That's nice. How much is that though, on
• 1:27:30
  average? For the Ek, for the EK9 it's
• 1:27:33
  insured for X amount which is definitely higher than what it
• 1:27:37
  should be higher. I paid 250 a year. 250 bucks,
• 1:27:43
  yeah. What for the whole year?
• 1:27:45
  Yeah, because you have other cars to drive.
• 1:27:48
  I have four days by daily. Yeah, I don't drive this EK9
• 1:27:51
  every day. So you just tell them that
• 1:27:53
  they're like, aren't. Yeah, as long as you have to
• 1:27:55
  take a photo of the EK9 in the garage by itself.
• 1:27:59
  There you go. So this is.
• 1:28:00
  Grundy. Holy crap IS is in the garage
• 1:28:03
  every night but it's broken to fuck.
• 1:28:06
  I'm going to insure every drift car and then tell them you don't
• 1:28:08
  drift them. Yeah, it's a vintage car.
• 1:28:11
  Yeah. I mean a collector's items.
• 1:28:12
  A buddy of mine has an SW 20 and he insures things that are worth
• 1:28:16
  a lot of money on it. So like the tail lights.
• 1:28:19
  I believe he has like 93 enough tails but he has insurance.
• 1:28:23
  The tail lights. That is just an example, but
• 1:28:25
  like the. From what they explained, at
• 1:28:29
  least from my from my insurance, you can't do specific parts, you
• 1:28:34
  can just do the entire. Car itself.
• 1:28:35
  Oh, I see. So like EK9 for example, the
• 1:28:38
  insurance, F35 I guess everything included.
• 1:28:40
  I think he just listed it and valued it.
• 1:28:44
  Like it's. It's on his policy.
• 1:28:45
  I was there when he did it and he's like added like aftermarket
• 1:28:49
  coverage for some stuff. Imagine that like yo.
• 1:28:54
  Itemized list. Like I need $1000.
• 1:28:58
  For somebody came and fucked it up, then you repair the ganador.
• 1:29:03
  Then you just get the fucking What is that company going?
• 1:29:05
  What's the other gander door? The the the one Kabuki.
• 1:29:10
  Kabuki, Yeah. Dude, I just painted some kabuki
• 1:29:12
  mirrors this past weekend. They're pretty legit.
• 1:29:15
  Dude they were fucking beefy. Shout out Brad and his kabuki
• 1:29:18
  mirrors. But like.
• 1:29:19
  That village wild and. They like, retract, they like or
• 1:29:23
  spring load. Yeah, they look.
• 1:29:24
  They look like what's good. Yeah.
• 1:29:26
  Power. Is it?
• 1:29:27
  Is it mounted? Can you actually see out?
• 1:29:29
  Yeah. It looks like a ganador like it
• 1:29:32
  does. And they're not like.
• 1:29:34
  It's actually pretty nice I I was considering.
• 1:29:37
  I I would get them for a car yeah, because the this shit is
• 1:29:40
  ridiculous right now like it's not even kind of and and I'm
• 1:29:43
  pretty purist and like I only get the real shit and even that
• 1:29:48
  I'm like $1500 from mirrors. I don't even really need them.
• 1:29:52
  I really. See how I?
• 1:29:53
  Have candor doors but I paid $400.00 and they.
• 1:29:56
  Were brand new. Wow.
• 1:29:57
  They're brand new inbox. I still have the box and they
• 1:29:59
  were 400 bucks and I was like, I'm going to pay 400 bucks for
• 1:30:02
  mirrors. I'm a fucking idiot.
• 1:30:03
  I remember thinking that you you.
• 1:30:05
  Sell a box for 1400. That's why I kept it I.
• 1:30:07
  Was like. Let's put this up here.
• 1:30:08
  Yeah, 'cause I was like, no one's going to believe me that
• 1:30:10
  these were brand new and they were 400.
• 1:30:13
  Bucks 400 for Gannadors. Yeah.
• 1:30:15
  And now and then like and my Blitz, I bought the Blitz were
• 1:30:17
  around the same time. Dude, yeah, I bought like.
• 1:30:19
  Three sets of blitz, so threes. Just so you could put them
• 1:30:22
  together just like. Mixed match them and get the
• 1:30:24
  right face and everything and then like, I don't know, I
• 1:30:27
  probably paid like maybe $2500 for all.
• 1:30:31
  Of them did you use like Jesse Streeter back then?
• 1:30:33
  Probably. Oh yeah.
• 1:30:34
  Yeah, yeah, like that. Was like back then there was my
• 1:30:36
  go to for like Yahoo auction in Japan.
• 1:30:39
  Jesse Streeter used to always get my stuff.
• 1:30:41
  Yeah, we get all Yahoo auction shit through him.
• 1:30:43
  Yeah, for sure. I got my wheels through Jesse
• 1:30:45
  too. Yeah, the ones on IAS, not the.
• 1:30:47
  DHL is now raping everyone but. What are you talking about?
• 1:30:50
  Oh, now, Yeah, yeah, I was going to say DHL began.
• 1:30:53
  That's. A terrace.
• 1:30:54
  Really. Yeah, it's not the terrace.
• 1:30:56
  Yeah, the terrace, everything is funny because 7's day this year,
• 1:30:59
  we actually had a Japanese news crew there.
• 1:31:02
  Oh yeah. I saw that.
• 1:31:03
  Yeah, like, dude, like they came from Japan to film to report on
• 1:31:10
  7's day. So you.
• 1:31:12
  So I got a bunch of friends in Japan and they were like texting
• 1:31:14
  me like dude, why are you on the news in Japan?
• 1:31:17
  I'm like, I didn't know I was going to be on the news there.
• 1:31:20
  Like I thought these were just some dudes so cool.
• 1:31:23
  But like, they did this thing where they're like, yeah, yeah,
• 1:31:26
  we're here to report on the car culture and everything.
• 1:31:28
  And I'm like, OK, cool. And then the first, they did 2
• 1:31:31
  releases of this report. The first report were all about
• 1:31:34
  Trump tariffs and around how Japanese cars are impacted by
• 1:31:38
  Trump tariffs. And they actually asked a couple
• 1:31:40
  of those questions while we were there.
• 1:31:41
  They were like, what do you guys think about the tariffs?
• 1:31:44
  We're like, who cares? We're kind of like just like
• 1:31:46
  hanging out. But hopefully things don't get.
• 1:31:49
  Worse. Oh, they're not worried over
• 1:31:51
  there. That's so weird.
• 1:31:52
  They. Didn't care a damn about 7's
• 1:31:54
  day. They give a crap about rotaries.
• 1:31:57
  Their main mission was to talk about to.
• 1:31:59
  Talk about wow. And then but the second release
• 1:32:02
  was a lot more focused on the cars and they had they actually
• 1:32:05
  did their due diligence, they interviewed people and they
• 1:32:07
  talked to them about cars and stuff like that.
• 1:32:09
  But the first one, you know, the tariff thing just happened like
• 1:32:13
  a few months ago in April. Then they really wanted to talk
• 1:32:16
  about this thing and we're just like, damn, I feel like so used
• 1:32:20
  right now. Yeah, I mean the topic.
• 1:32:24
  Yeah, I mean, the tariffs definitely suck, though, but I
• 1:32:26
  don't know, they only suck for, like, the, like, bringing in a
• 1:32:29
  container that suck. Yeah.
• 1:32:31
  But like, other than that, I don't really see too much shit
• 1:32:34
  right now. Well, Gretty, Gretty seems like
• 1:32:37
  they're having problems. Yeah, they're getting.
• 1:32:39
  I don't know what they're doing, but it's shit's taking a long
• 1:32:42
  time to come in, so I think they're trying to figure out
• 1:32:45
  solutions. Apexi just sent out an e-mail
• 1:32:47
  today saying the prices are increasing like crazy in the
• 1:32:49
  next month. Right.
• 1:32:51
  So I'm like, OK, I think finally it's.
• 1:32:53
  Starting to happen. Yeah, I see.
• 1:32:55
  Dang, that sucks. I don't know.
• 1:32:57
  Fingers crossed. Because.
• 1:32:59
  I had a bad feel when those towers first started.
• 1:33:01
  I had a really bad feeling. Yeah.
• 1:33:03
  I was like, here we go. It's gonna be 2009 all over
• 1:33:05
  again. Like we're gonna lose all the
• 1:33:06
  fucking JDM shit. They're gonna move out of here.
• 1:33:09
  True, that's. What I was thinking, yeah,
• 1:33:11
  hasn't happened yet though, so. And the cars got more expensive
• 1:33:14
  too, right? I assume I don't know.
• 1:33:16
  I probably did. I don't, I haven't really
• 1:33:19
  followed up on it. But on the flip side, you know,
• 1:33:22
  like if you if you had like say that Alteza or Arista or
• 1:33:25
  something. Sell it for more.
• 1:33:27
  Yeah, whatever percent, it just went up.
• 1:33:29
  That's the percent that went up for your car, so.
• 1:33:32
  You'll be thinking logically like.
• 1:33:34
  This he's the, he's the business.
• 1:33:36
  Part of the prime like. I'm still like 14 years old
• 1:33:40
  taking pictures of civics and stuff.
• 1:33:42
  You're the visionary. Yeah, he's like, OK, we need to
• 1:33:45
  pay bills and how can we make more money, Honey, I'm like, oh,
• 1:33:47
  look at this car, dude. I do boddy dottie dying through
• 1:33:50
  life lately and I'm like fuck why am I doing this?
• 1:33:54
  Dude, it just, it depresses me. The R34 depresses me, the GTR,
• 1:33:58
  the prices. Yeah, that's the only car that
• 1:34:01
  like bums me out. I'm like there.
• 1:34:02
  Was one on Craigslist years ago? 30 grand, yeah.
• 1:34:05
  Like. 3040 Grand. Yeah, when I used to go, it was
• 1:34:08
  blue. Oh my God.
• 1:34:09
  This is. Literally on.
• 1:34:10
  Craigslist. I was like, what the fuck?
• 1:34:12
  Description said. I know it said like something
• 1:34:14
  along the lines of this is not a like this is an at your own
• 1:34:18
  risk. Part dealer plate kind of thing.
• 1:34:21
  They had a there was like a Japanese version of Auto Trader
• 1:34:24
  magazine. So I, I started going to Japan
• 1:34:27
  back in 2006 and I would always go to the, the 711 or the AMPM,
• 1:34:34
  the combini to look at that magazine 11 and see how much
• 1:34:38
  these cars are going for. And it was, it was so cheap.
• 1:34:42
  What 10 grand? 10 grand bro for like 6 grand. 6
• 1:34:45
  grand supras, 30 threes were like 10 grand.
• 1:34:48
  Yeah, it was like. Like silly because.
• 1:34:50
  Nobody. They came out of fashion back
• 1:34:52
  then. It was just like we don't need
• 1:34:53
  cars anymore. 4 door, 2 door, Skylands, ER, whatever. 30
• 1:34:58
  fours, yeah. Super, super cheap.
• 1:35:01
  Grandma driven. And then have you ever driven a
• 1:35:04
  34? No, I've I've driven a 34
• 1:35:07
  before. Yeah.
• 1:35:08
  So what's your impression compared to A2?
• 1:35:10
  40 Gosh, is this compared? To a 240.
• 1:35:12
  Yeah, well. I feel like I.
• 1:35:14
  Know where you're going so I I'll beat you there.
• 1:35:17
  It's a basically a Maxima. It's really nothing special, but
• 1:35:22
  that engine is fucking crazy. Oh yeah, like just driving it
• 1:35:25
  and just hearing it and I'm like, I'm like I'm pretty high
• 1:35:27
  in the RPM. This thing sounds like it's just
• 1:35:29
  idling like it's just so super smooth like all the way through.
• 1:35:33
  But like it doesn't it doesn't feel crazy.
• 1:35:36
  Like it's the interior is just it's like a fucking.
• 1:35:38
  That's the that's the thing that that always is a conflict for me
• 1:35:41
  because I'm like, yeah, this feels like my car.
• 1:35:44
  It is not $100,000 car build quality.
• 1:35:47
  Yeah, so. The the 32, for example, has
• 1:35:49
  pretty much the build quality of a Ester.
• 1:35:52
  Yeah, yeah. Plastics, the smells, all that.
• 1:35:55
  Stuff, but what about 14 is that you're saying that's like 33
• 1:35:58
  quality area because sometimes I'm not saying maybe you might
• 1:36:02
  be experiencing this, but the plastics in the 14 a little
• 1:36:04
  better could have here's have been it's like I feel like I
• 1:36:09
  could touch it, you know but. Here's a good comparison.
• 1:36:11
  Carl, you've been in the S15 before.
• 1:36:13
  That's nice. That feels like AR-34.
• 1:36:15
  Well, that's good, yeah. That's good for an S chassis.
• 1:36:18
  Yeah. Not for $100,000, you know what
• 1:36:22
  I mean? Like that's, yeah, that's the
• 1:36:23
  problem, yeah. What happened?
• 1:36:25
  Why did they become such AI? Don't.
• 1:36:27
  Know what do you? Mean, fast and furious.
• 1:36:31
  Yeah. Yeah, you're right.
• 1:36:32
  That's it. I just totally.
• 1:36:33
  Missed. Like almost every nation, you
• 1:36:35
  have numbers that really low. Literally fucking Paul Walker
• 1:36:39
  ruined everything but. Supra's aren't like 150 grand
• 1:36:41
  right? Like I mean.
• 1:36:42
  They're I know they're getting up there, but I don't know
• 1:36:44
  about. Like 180 eighty.
• 1:36:46
  I. Mean look, look about.
• 1:36:47
  I mean, it's a. Marketplace man.
• 1:36:48
  It's a marketplace supra you could get for like 6070.
• 1:36:51
  You get like A and a. But that's automatic 40.
• 1:36:54
  But that's a USDM 1, right? Yeah.
• 1:36:56
  No, that's JDM and the JDM ones I think are cheaper, yeah.
• 1:36:59
  JDM are cheaper because. The other thing about the GTR,
• 1:37:02
  you got to remember it was never here.
• 1:37:03
  Yeah, whereas the USDM Supra like a Mark 4 GTE super that
• 1:37:09
  came out here. Yeah, good point that one and.
• 1:37:12
  I would rather have that than a JD.
• 1:37:14
  EI would love that. Yeah, same.
• 1:37:16
  I don't know what it is about it.
• 1:37:17
  I think it would be worth more. It's harder to get.
• 1:37:19
  It's the number one thing. Like my car, dude.
• 1:37:21
  I'm gonna talk about a GTR. That's a right hand drive.
• 1:37:23
  I fucking hate right hand drive. I just want to be on the left
• 1:37:25
  hand. I'm like, I'm in the I'm gonna.
• 1:37:27
  Be on the left hand Dr. GTRS. Are they like the customers ones
• 1:37:30
  you're talking about, like the Dubai ones?
• 1:37:31
  Yeah, Yeah. So it's still that original
• 1:37:34
  though I think. There might have been a couple
• 1:37:35
  that were me for like. Like a legitimate original.
• 1:37:39
  I think there definitely has been.
• 1:37:40
  In fact, that's. One.
• 1:37:41
  Yeah, no way. I didn't think so either.
• 1:37:43
  Here's a 93. Toy that looks so weird. 66
• 1:37:45
  grand, that's just what's super that's.
• 1:37:47
  What they look like bro with no wing, no wing target top.
• 1:37:51
  Oh, the roof is off, Yeah. I got it.
• 1:37:53
  Oh, it's a target top. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:37:54
  There was one at Adam LZ World Tour, the last one.
• 1:37:59
  Oh yeah. You were there.
• 1:38:00
  Yeah, you were there. Trial kit on you, right?
• 1:38:02
  No, you passed when I was in here.
• 1:38:03
  No, you were at whatever event I'm talking about.
• 1:38:05
  It's the the movie, The drift drift.
• 1:38:07
  Battle or whatever, not the movie.
• 1:38:09
  Oh, OK, OK, sorry. You met Han.
• 1:38:13
  Oh shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:38:14
  Do you remember the white super that was like right to the right
• 1:38:17
  of our booth? It looked almost stock, but it
• 1:38:20
  wasn't. It was like distastefully like
• 1:38:22
  lowered wheels had like the lip. Kit, that's Chris's car, right?
• 1:38:27
  Chris Kane. Did he bring that?
• 1:38:29
  I'm not sure if he brought that car.
• 1:38:31
  It was like just enough. Definitely his car.
• 1:38:33
  Is it had? Tease, tease.
• 1:38:36
  I think it did you. Have.
• 1:38:38
  Silver tease on it. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:38:39
  It was like just enough. I was like, damn, this looks
• 1:38:41
  good. I was.
• 1:38:42
  I'm not really a super person but I'm like this.
• 1:38:43
  One that looks fucking good, yeah.
• 1:38:45
  Yeah. But my thing is like if I ever
• 1:38:47
  had a mark 4 super it has to make at least 1000 at the
• 1:38:49
  wheels. How big it was 6. 100 Nope. 1000
• 1:38:53
  needs to be at least. 1000 I don't know why.
• 1:38:55
  This. 600 sounds. Because it's it's a super.
• 1:38:58
  Has to be. I need to be able to smoke
• 1:38:59
  anything I come in contact with like no matter what and I want
• 1:39:02
  it to look kind of stock it's. Just like, I don't know if you
• 1:39:05
  if you know a lot of super owners, but like when you ever
• 1:39:07
  ask them like how how much force part, they just casually say,
• 1:39:10
  oh, it's like 11. Yeah, well.
• 1:39:12
  These days, 1200, yeah, it's. Just.
• 1:39:15
  You know it's manageable. It's on a Garrett G30.
• 1:39:18
  Like something? Dude a lot of so I feel like
• 1:39:22
  some of us had cousins where they would be like 'cause that
• 1:39:25
  car came my cousins that came out when they were like getting
• 1:39:28
  their jobs and shit. So some of them bought an NSX.
• 1:39:32
  Like I think one of them has an NSX.
• 1:39:34
  No one bought a Supra which sucks.
• 1:39:37
  I wish I got the experience riding in one of.
• 1:39:39
  Those I never really, I never drove one of those, I don't
• 1:39:41
  think I. Rode in one when I was like 13.
• 1:39:43
  Or no, I was like 15 C Kane 23 on Instagram.
• 1:39:48
  I think this is going to be the car.
• 1:39:49
  I think this is the car. 15 years old, I was in the back
• 1:39:53
  drunk on 4 Loko in a 2 + 2 one of these.
• 1:39:56
  Really. Yeah, 2 + 2 one of these. 2 + 2
• 1:39:59
  on this, yeah. OK, I was sitting in the back,
• 1:40:01
  it was a GE. The owner was thinking like yo
• 1:40:03
  this dude's mad fast. Like like I don't know any
• 1:40:06
  better where they were doing like 75-C.
• 1:40:08
  Kane, 23. That's got to be it.
• 1:40:19
  I mean that looks exactly. Look at the headlines, dude.
• 1:40:22
  They're they're so like, oh, what the fuck clean.
• 1:40:26
  So this guy, he's, he's a old friend of ours, puts T ES on
• 1:40:30
  everything. And it worked out on this one I
• 1:40:33
  mean. This is that looks.
• 1:40:36
  Really good. This.
• 1:40:37
  Is Rory? Oh yeah.
• 1:40:38
  Yeah, Yeah. That's it.
• 1:40:40
  Yeah. See do you see this?
• 1:40:42
  Yeah. I'll take the Super, but this?
• 1:40:44
  One's good. This is like.
• 1:40:46
  Peak adulting right here. Once I'm profitable, there will
• 1:40:49
  be signs that shit. Exactly.
• 1:40:52
  You're right. That shit is.
• 1:40:54
  That is like the best looking Ferrari one of them.
• 1:40:55
  Oh yeah, I say beautiful. Yeah, Tea the world.
• 1:41:01
  Go back to the. Supra.
• 1:41:01
  The supra is amazing. I don't know dude.
• 1:41:04
  That's that's like, that's pretty good.
• 1:41:06
  That's perfection right there. I mean, you can't, you can't get
• 1:41:08
  it any better than that. I mean, you could do a redox kit
• 1:41:10
  if you want, but you know, some people don't like body kits and
• 1:41:13
  why not? But.
• 1:41:14
  I just realized that the mirrors are mounted at the door.
• 1:41:16
  I forgot about that. They're not in the normal mirror
• 1:41:19
  spot for a 90s car. Yeah.
• 1:41:21
  That's true. RX sevens too.
• 1:41:22
  FTS I think are the same way. Yeah, and Miatas.
• 1:41:25
  Yeah, I I love the the JDMRX sevens the.
• 1:41:28
  BR ZS. FRS.
• 1:41:30
  Yeah, all those cars, all the new cars are like that because
• 1:41:32
  they they did some kind of mandate.
• 1:41:34
  Yeah, but I love it when they do the the Fender mirrors.
• 1:41:37
  Oh. Yeah.
• 1:41:38
  Not on a supra though, no, No. Not on this.
• 1:41:41
  No, no, no. But R.E.M. and Mia had this kid
• 1:41:43
  that that did that. But yeah, he's got a nice 34 as
• 1:41:46
  well. He's got a bunch of like, really
• 1:41:47
  nice cars, all really clean. I can't, I can't get behind this
• 1:41:50
  colour. I don't know why everyone's so
• 1:41:51
  obsessed with this colour. It doesn't do it for.
• 1:41:52
  Midnight purple or whatever. I don't hate it, but I would
• 1:41:54
  never like. There's like so many.
• 1:41:56
  There's three versions, right, 123?
• 1:41:59
  That looks like a colour match it like a painter's nightmare.
• 1:42:02
  Right. Yeah, expensive.
• 1:42:04
  It's, I don't know these days, like 500 for like a gallon or
• 1:42:08
  something. Oh really?
• 1:42:08
  Yeah, it's something crazy. Yeah, I don't know.
• 1:42:10
  I've never been like crazy about midnight.
• 1:42:12
  Purple me either, I don't get the I.
• 1:42:14
  See it? I'm like oh, cool, midnight
• 1:42:15
  purple. But I'm like, oh.
• 1:42:17
  I mean, I get it because it is. It's a OEM color changing color.
• 1:42:19
  Yeah, I mean, it's kind of crazy.
• 1:42:21
  It's definitely sick, but it's not like desirable for me
• 1:42:23
  personally. Malcolm, what do you think about
• 1:42:25
  that color? You like that shit signature
• 1:42:26
  color? No.
• 1:42:27
  Wow, it's just nice to look at the sun.
• 1:42:29
  Yeah, for 30 fours, there's some really, really cool colors.
• 1:42:32
  Is silica breath. Yeah, there is lightning yellow.
• 1:42:36
  Yeah, yellow dude, Yeah. Active red.
• 1:42:38
  Yes, Active red is my favorite A.
• 1:42:40
  Red R34 is crazy. Active Red's absolute favorite.
• 1:42:44
  Oh, the silica breath is the one I like.
• 1:42:47
  Oh my God, yeah. It's different than.
• 1:42:50
  Oh, it's. Gold, right?
• 1:42:51
  It's like a gold. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:42:52
  Different kind of gold than like the camera gold.
• 1:42:54
  Bayside Blue is always my favorite, yeah.
• 1:42:56
  That's a top secret gold classic.
• 1:42:58
  Yeah, Top Secret gold. Yeah, it does look like Top
• 1:43:01
  Secret. Yeah, it does.
• 1:43:03
  And then yo the normal silver colour too.
• 1:43:06
  I love that. What the wheels?
• 1:43:08
  Yeah, those are. No, those are Volks, I think.
• 1:43:11
  I don't remember. GTR owners There's always that
• 1:43:13
  one GTR owner that just puts the dumbest wheels on their car.
• 1:43:16
  Like usually R35, it's. The name for.
• 1:43:19
  Key like yeah bro. Yo the hubcap spin.
• 1:43:23
  What? Like this one?
• 1:43:25
  That shouldn't be a thing. That's that's like a sort of
• 1:43:30
  like, you know, car modifier archetype.
• 1:43:33
  It's like, oh, you're, you're this kind of, you know, tuner
• 1:43:36
  quote air quotes. It's like you got to put like
• 1:43:38
  the, you know, random Japanese words on your car as well.
• 1:43:42
  And just like the racing stripes.
• 1:43:43
  And you're just like, do you guys?
• 1:43:45
  That is me. I experienced this once where
• 1:43:47
  like me and my buddy, we grew up together and like we were in the
• 1:43:50
  cars, right? And then somewhere along the
• 1:43:52
  lines he kind of fell away from it.
• 1:43:54
  But I obviously kept going and whatever.
• 1:43:57
  And then like sometimes we'll be together, we hanging out and
• 1:43:59
  he's like, yo, if I had that thing, I would tint the tail
• 1:44:02
  lights and do this. And I'm like in my head, I'm
• 1:44:05
  like, oh, wow, like. So you?
• 1:44:08
  What the hell right there. Oh, and we.
• 1:44:10
  Evolved and now we're past that, but you're still in this.
• 1:44:13
  Yes. Because like, I remembered I did
• 1:44:15
  that right? And I was like, Oh yeah.
• 1:44:18
  You kind of grew up. You learned.
• 1:44:19
  Either we learned or it got out of style or something like it
• 1:44:22
  was one or the other and I'm like oh wow, what the fuck.
• 1:44:25
  That's a that's a good question. Like did he get out of style or
• 1:44:27
  did we learn Cuz like clear clear tail lights came back for
• 1:44:30
  a little bit. I I still want some clear tail
• 1:44:32
  lights. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:44:33
  But like, remember when we would see everything like people would
• 1:44:35
  just tint the tail lights and tint like and it's and it was
• 1:44:38
  like black? It out black out your car Yeah,
• 1:44:40
  it was like you gotta. Black it out and I was like I
• 1:44:43
  don't know and they. Sold those, like those headlight
• 1:44:46
  covers that you could buy at like AutoZone or whatever, or
• 1:44:49
  Strauss back then, yeah. And what else?
• 1:44:52
  Oh, like we would black out the trim like just a little like the
• 1:44:56
  only the only Chrome accent, like oh, just like black that
• 1:44:59
  out. Yeah, like.
• 1:45:00
  Shave holdings. Yeah, like weird shit.
• 1:45:02
  And I'm like. I like the shave holdings.
• 1:45:05
  Take the emblems off bro. Like people can't be knowing
• 1:45:08
  what to. Yeah, yeah, D brand, yeah, D
• 1:45:10
  badge that. Was the thing too.
• 1:45:11
  OK, that's. A big 1D badging, That's a big
• 1:45:13
  one because that was definitely popular.
• 1:45:16
  I fuck with D badging now though.
• 1:45:20
  I would say I don't. I don't know.
• 1:45:22
  Yeah, I would say I don't. Unless it's a Scion badge and
• 1:45:25
  that that's coming off. You have your badges though,
• 1:45:26
  don't you? Absolutely.
• 1:45:27
  Fuck no you don't. On the back, no.
• 1:45:30
  I was pretty silliest. Somebody stuck it on there after
• 1:45:34
  I painted it. Brandon.
• 1:45:36
  That's one you painted it. Whoever did that, I want to
• 1:45:38
  fucking kill you bro. Wait, what was shit off
• 1:45:41
  silliest? They put a sticker on your car.
• 1:45:44
  It was the day after I finished my car like it was my birthday.
• 1:45:48
  LZ World Tour. I come back to my car, It's a
• 1:45:50
  silliest on the back. I wanted to die, but it's all
• 1:45:54
  good now. We're good.
• 1:45:55
  It's just a sticker like this. Is what Drifters do.
• 1:45:58
  Brand new. They think they don't care about
• 1:46:00
  their cars. Because you just drift.
• 1:46:01
  Them something just. Fucking in the car.
• 1:46:03
  It was brand new. Fresh paint, candy, gold, boom.
• 1:46:06
  Silliest sticker. Yeah, that's annoying as fuck.
• 1:46:08
  Oh no, go fucking find a tall building.
• 1:46:11
  Someone putting someone putting shit on your car, that's a good
• 1:46:14
  reason to like, murder that. Person.
• 1:46:15
  Yeah. Yeah, true.
• 1:46:17
  After that you'll just start happening.
• 1:46:19
  Put it on the glass. Yeah, the fuck Yeah, the glass
• 1:46:21
  is a different story. I mean, it's still stupid to do,
• 1:46:24
  but like I. Wonder if it was Mike Freeze him
• 1:46:27
  like he's the only one I talked to that.
• 1:46:29
  Day too. That was Mike I I.
• 1:46:30
  Don't think, Mike. Was it him?
• 1:46:32
  His ears are ringing right now. Yeah, I'd be.
• 1:46:34
  I didn't even do shit man. The.
• 1:46:35
  Guy is such a good dude too, like he's probably like why the
• 1:46:37
  fuck would he say that? But we just had a conversation
• 1:46:40
  before and I always run into him so I don't know, maybe.
• 1:46:43
  Maybe. Where it was beat, I don't even
• 1:46:45
  know. Yeah, I think it was someone
• 1:46:47
  like that, dude. Yeah, yeah, it was someone who,
• 1:46:48
  you know, would do it, you know what I mean?
• 1:46:50
  Not fucking someone we just met like the night before.
• 1:46:54
  Yeah, just whatever. Don't.
• 1:46:55
  Touch. I thought it was.
• 1:46:56
  Funny, don't touch other people's cars.
• 1:46:57
  I thought it was funny at the time and then after that I was
• 1:47:00
  like why the fuck does that say silly?
• 1:47:03
  The back of my car? I don't know right where it
• 1:47:06
  would be an SI badge to like the first SI is like.
• 1:47:10
  The SI logo, yeah. I always wanted to put the JDM
• 1:47:15
  badges on the. Yeah, that's what I can say.
• 1:47:16
  Like, yeah, that's about it. They're cool, yeah.
• 1:47:18
  And then I remember I had an STI and I was like, let's see what
• 1:47:21
  they do in Japan. And you go on the images and
• 1:47:23
  there's no badges and there's. No badge.
• 1:47:25
  It's a pink. Well, they had the pink one.
• 1:47:27
  They had the. They had the.
• 1:47:28
  Well, actually not on a bring up bring up 05 STI Malcolm the
• 1:47:33
  rear. Oh, cuz you.
• 1:47:34
  Had STI on the there was no in the middle of.
• 1:47:36
  The back of that, it was a sticker.
• 1:47:38
  It was, it said. WRX.
• 1:47:39
  Yeah, on the corner they had that.
• 1:47:40
  Oh, really? But it said Subaru.
• 1:47:43
  Oh. This one, Yeah, yeah, yeah, it
• 1:47:45
  says. Subaru, I thought.
• 1:47:46
  You were talking about. It doesn't say.
• 1:47:47
  That yeah, there's nothing there that's.
• 1:47:49
  True. And I was like, fuck, I kind of
• 1:47:50
  like that. I said yeah, So what do you?
• 1:47:53
  Mean that's the biggest badge. Ever fucked that emblem I?
• 1:47:56
  Kind of liked it, I don't know. And you know what?
• 1:47:58
  I liked it because the Evo said evolution.
• 1:48:00
  Oh. Yeah.
• 1:48:02
  And I was like, oh, it's kind of like that.
• 1:48:04
  Evos I still secretly want an Evo I.

• 1:48:11
  bottom Malcolm like. I know.
• 1:48:12
  Next to the silver? Yep.
• 1:48:15
  That's probably like an M sports kid or some shit.
• 1:48:17
  Yeah, that thing is pretty. Dude that that would be a sick
• 1:48:21
  drift core man do. You remember the team Orange
• 1:48:24

  One fuck. Me, I wish I was around.

  For that was that was an that was the first, yeah, I was there
• 1:48:37
  like that was. That was incredible.
• 1:48:40
  I'm sure it was. Like that was like pre formula D
• 1:48:42
  blew up. Yeah.
• 1:48:44
  Like you had Team Orange, both cars.
• 1:48:47
  That's insane. The BLOB eye and the Hawkeye and
• 1:48:50
  freaking Koyama from June was there.
• 1:48:52
  Yeah. And they blew the transmission
• 1:48:54
  on the Hawkeye and he and he swapped it with a rental from
• 1:48:58
  like, where the hell he got that shit from?
• 1:49:00
  And he just did that on the track just to just to do one
• 1:49:02
  more round. Yeah.
• 1:49:03
  And they put it back. Oh.
• 1:49:04
  My God. Dude is that the one with Tarzan
• 1:49:07

• 1:49:09
  It was no McCann. No, McCann, Yeah.
• 1:49:11
  This was in Bueno Bueno with the vertex so.
• 1:49:15
  Crazy. With the vertex SC, who else was
• 1:49:20
  there from Japan? I think that's it, right?
• 1:49:22
  What year was it? O four or something.

  Something like that, Yeah. It was just a 5 cars, right?
• 1:49:26
  It was just yeah. Team Orange Nom Ken Bueno.
• 1:49:31
  I feel like there was there were more.
• 1:49:32
  I feel like there were two more cars.
• 1:49:34
  I want to know who funded this whole thing.
• 1:49:36
  Did they all pay for their own shit to get thrown over here?
• 1:49:39
  There's no way. VOB did for sure.
• 1:49:41
  They did a DVD on it. Yeah, do you mean?
• 1:49:44
  They did fun. It's.
• 1:49:45
  The best DVD. Ever.
• 1:49:46
  I mean, the the person who organized it was a friend of
• 1:49:50
  ours. He's the guy that used to do all
• 1:49:52
  the old Honda days at E Town, but he actually did all events
• 1:49:56
  there, like a lot of the the big events there.
• 1:49:59
  And he was, I found this out like many years later, you know,
• 1:50:04
  we were watching like the Super Bowl together and I was like,
• 1:50:06
  dude, you remember this event? And he's like, yeah, I did that
• 1:50:07
  one. I'm like bro what the fuck man.
• 1:50:11
  That's wild. But yeah, that was that was an
• 1:50:14
  epic day. Like they had, what's his name,
• 1:50:19
  the the founder of Option magazine.
• 1:50:22
  It's not Tarzan Yamada oh die Zero.
• 1:50:25
  And he was it was like an option video.
• 1:50:27
  Like he was there in his suit and everything and like.
• 1:50:30
  It's on YouTube. You should.
• 1:50:32
  We should. I have the DVD I need, the old
• 1:50:34
  DVD. I'm actually in the audience,
• 1:50:35
  like acting all crazy because that was like the best day of my
• 1:50:38
  life. That sounds like the.
• 1:50:39
  Best day of my life? Potentially, yeah.
• 1:50:41
  I think it's funny because in the crowd righted pants to the
• 1:50:43
  crowd. You know everybody right now
• 1:50:45
  wears a black T-shirt. Yeah, yeah, dude, they're always
• 1:50:47
  wearing colored. Colored shirt, a white shirt,
• 1:50:50
  T-shirt everywhere. I was like.
• 1:50:51
  Holy. Crap.
• 1:50:53
  Times have changed. I need to watch that DVD there.
• 1:50:55
  There's one thing I'm definitely going to watch.
• 1:50:57
  Whatever dude, Dinofa is driving a Miata on seventeens.
• 1:51:02
  Damn, Vaughan getting was there. Oh that's right, getting out of
• 1:51:06
  S13 or something. He was, he was actually driving
• 1:51:08
  an 86 that day because his car, his car broke.
• 1:51:11
  But they had the ORC 350Z there that was built by Top Secret and
• 1:51:17
  they had the Top Secret S15 there.
• 1:51:19
  As well, can you bring that Z Nikki top secret Z350Z?
• 1:51:23
  That's the one with the. Yeah.
• 1:51:24
  Is this like your next project? Sr.
• 1:51:27
  No, it's one. I mean we got AZ now I think.
• 1:51:29
  It had an RB. Looking up shit, you know what I
• 1:51:31
  mean? It was not a normal power plant.
• 1:51:33
  It had, I think it had an RB in it.
• 1:51:35
  No, it definitely didn't. Yeah, it definitely didn't have
• 1:51:37
  an Sr. Yeah, Chris Forsberg was the one
• 1:51:39
  that did the Sr. Yeah, 3.
• 1:51:40
  TZ yeah. So, so those were the six cards
• 1:51:43
  that were there. That was.
• 1:51:44
  That card looks great. That was.
• 1:51:45
  Peak what's? It wasn't this one though, it
• 1:51:47
  was the white 1 you. Need.
• 1:51:49
  Those, those are nineteens right in the front.
• 1:51:50
  They look like nineteens. Those are gotta.
• 1:51:52
  Be nice the GTCS. The White 1 Malcolm is the one
• 1:51:55
  that was here, yeah. Those are.
• 1:51:57
  Eighteens. Yeah, Yeah.
• 1:51:58
  This is it. That one looks good.
• 1:52:00
  That was like the first version of it, and then they iterated
• 1:52:03
  on, yeah. The gold 1 is obviously insane
• 1:52:06
  that like that one. That one looks amazing.
• 1:52:08
  I. Wonder whatever happened to that
• 1:52:09
  thing because oh, I think that did that become the option
• 1:52:13
  stream Z, the one that he flipped at the at the in the
• 1:52:19
  desert when he was trying to do the top speed run.
• 1:52:21
  Yes. Likely.
• 1:52:22
  You know about this shit? Yeah.
• 1:52:24
  We. Played on the TV once.
• 1:52:27
  Come on. In Utah, like in Salt Flats,
• 1:52:30
  Yeah. That's crazy because they're
• 1:52:32
  trying to, they're trying to get numbers because Dajiro, he's
• 1:52:36
  like addicted with speed. So they used to be this this
• 1:52:38
  Oval track in Japan called the Atabe I seen.
• 1:52:41
  That. So, but he used to go to like
• 1:52:43
  Nurburgring and the salt flats and all that stuff and.
• 1:52:46
  That's the photo. I'm not sure if that car is the
• 1:52:48
  one that became the Streamzy, but it might be click that.
• 1:52:51
  Photo and make it bigger somehow.
• 1:52:53
  But that thing is badass. So interesting, I don't know if
• 1:52:59
  you guys have been seeing this, but like Thailand, there's a
• 1:53:02
  shop out there that's rebuilding all of these like fresh build
• 1:53:06
  and and legitimately like sort of sanctioned by Smokey himself,
• 1:53:11
  like he goes out there. So they rebuilt the Supra, the
• 1:53:14
  Z, the skyline, the R35 have a van.
• 1:53:18
  Now. The van they they rebuilt the
• 1:53:20
  RSX as well. Same colour, same graphics and
• 1:53:24
  everything. His name is Beer Biok.
• 1:53:26
  Biok is a he's the owner of a a chain of hotels in Thailand.
• 1:53:31
  And so what's up? Yeah, He's a he's a Thailand.
• 1:53:35
  He's a sick RX7 FD and FC. Yeah, both RMREMME adult.
• 1:53:41
  Yeah. Amazing.
• 1:53:42
  Oh, I know Thailand does have a big series.
• 1:53:44
  It's. Ridiculous yeah, that's super
• 1:53:46
  high quality like and then Prav like knows all these guys I was
• 1:53:50
  gonna. Say I'm Thai, so I was about to
• 1:53:51
  say like. We were just talking about how
• 1:53:53
  you were Thai. Yeah.
• 1:53:54
  So it would be out there just kind of crazy because I never
• 1:53:56
  feel like I'm like someone who's Thai and I don't feel like a
• 1:53:59
  tourist either. So it's like this weird, like
• 1:54:02
  hybrid version of of myself there.
• 1:54:04
  But the car culture and car scenes, ridiculous.
• 1:54:08
  It's like it's I I'd imagine it being like what Japan was in the
• 1:54:14
  90s plus a lot more now. But you know, it's good and bad
• 1:54:19
  because you also have lots of copies, like tons of copies of
• 1:54:22
  things and because they're skilled and crafted like people
• 1:54:28
  in terms of like making body kits and things like that, you
• 1:54:30
  do have basically one to one kits and copies.
• 1:54:34
  And they look so, yeah, they look better than like yours.
• 1:54:36
  So that's that's. Good for drifting.
• 1:54:38
  We need that because because of the copies we have.
• 1:54:42
  Don't look, I was. Going to say.
• 1:54:43
  That's kind of I thought that was a known thing because like
• 1:54:48
  in the the the Thai Chopper culture, that shit and or the
• 1:54:52
  Indo chopper culture, like that shit is like when it's a
• 1:54:57
  Craftsman doing it. You don't.
• 1:55:00
  You don't even need to ask where they got that from because they
• 1:55:04
  made that shit. Yeah.
• 1:55:06
  So that's that's where I'm OK with.
• 1:55:07
  Are you in choppers? I do like it a little.
• 1:55:09
  Bit like in Thailand, they like they love mixed matching parts.
• 1:55:14
  So they'll get like they'll have like a Harley Panhead or
• 1:55:18
  something, but they have no, no motorcycle for it.
• 1:55:21
  So hey, let's build a frame around this, this engine dude.
• 1:55:25
  And you have like this amazing motor.
• 1:55:28
  It's amazing. Craftsman, make it work.
• 1:55:30
  I have a yard. All the pictures I Google and
• 1:55:34
  the threads that I find are from like overseas somewhere in Asia.
• 1:55:40
  I used to buy parts from someone in Thailand, like they they have
• 1:55:42
  like collections of used parts and stuff.
• 1:55:44
  Yeah. Like so before we got any of
• 1:55:48
  those parts, they used to ship all the half cuts, all that
• 1:55:53
  stuff to Thailand. OK, that makes sense.
• 1:55:56
  Those motors were then sold. Whatever.
• 1:55:59
  Yeah. But there were so many
• 1:56:00
  accessories on those cars already that there was like
• 1:56:03
  secondary markets for those oil caps and coilovers and things
• 1:56:07
  like that. Yeah.
• 1:56:08
  And you go to these junk yards like this one guy who
• 1:56:11
  specializes on just coilovers. I could go there like probably
• 1:56:15
  next week and fine you Cusco coilovers from like the 90s.
• 1:56:20
  Wow, it's got like a big warehouse.
• 1:56:22
  Coilovers. Yeah, easily.
• 1:56:23
  And they'll they'll keep that pretty much forever.
• 1:56:25
  Headlights. Absolutely.
• 1:56:27
  I remember seeing what's it called, the s s thirteens, The
• 1:56:31
  the the bricks. Yeah.
• 1:56:33
  Headlights. Like 10 sets.
• 1:56:34
  I'm like each how much are these sets now 2000?
• 1:56:37
  They're, they have to be over 1500, right?
• 1:56:39
  They got to be at 1500 maybe. Yeah, so this guy is like
• 1:56:42
  sitting easily on like 20 grand worth of headlights.
• 1:56:45
  So it's true of like Moogan parts or Spoon parts.
• 1:56:49
  There's like this one guy who has like catalogs and catalogs
• 1:56:51
  of wheels, all TS. Wow.
• 1:56:54
  But. Whenever we're going back to
• 1:56:56
  Taiwan, that's. Cool.
• 1:56:58
  Dude, in the Philippines it's kind of like that, but it's like
• 1:57:02
  it'd be like 100 different types of tail lights.
• 1:57:04
  Could be expensive tail lights or they could be fake.
• 1:57:06
  More than likely fake, just hanging like in like a small
• 1:57:11
  space, probably like this just lined.
• 1:57:14
  Yeah. And for some reason, that's
• 1:57:15
  where you're going to find what you.
• 1:57:17
  Want. When I when I went to Japan, I
• 1:57:19
  felt like I only went like last year and I felt like it, like
• 1:57:23
  that was how it was, but now it's not.
• 1:57:26
  Oh yeah, now it's different because people like us come up
• 1:57:28
  there. Everything's gone.
• 1:57:30
  Like that's how it feels. It's like it's like you go to
• 1:57:32
  the up garage and you're like, oh wow, this.
• 1:57:34
  I bet there used to be like good shit in here.
• 1:57:36
  Now there's kind of not, but. Back in the day.
• 1:57:38
  Yeah, if you look at like Yahoo Auctions, Japan these days,
• 1:57:41
  barely any of them is really there anymore.
• 1:57:44
  Like you look up, it's typical, you know, stuff.
• 1:57:46
  That's the stuff that's running out.
• 1:57:47
  Yeah. You won't see that,
• 1:57:48
  unfortunately. Yeah, that's a bummer.
• 1:57:51
  That's where I'm going to get Knuckles, bro.
• 1:57:52
  Next week I'm buying Knuckles right from Japan.
• 1:57:55
  Oh yeah. Because for some reason.
• 1:57:57
  So you got stock? Knuckles on your car right now.
• 1:57:59
  They're pretty, they're kind of stock.
• 1:58:00
  They're hey man knuckles like Daigo makes brand.
• 1:58:04
  Just cut stock knuckles and Weld.
• 1:58:05
  Them they're like not aggressive, OK, I'm about to get
• 1:58:08
  aggressive with it, but for some reason the Yahoo Auctions, it's
• 1:58:13
  not as good for like those parts we used to get from Yahoo
• 1:58:17
  Auctions. Now it's good for things that
• 1:58:20
  Japanese manufacturers might make new there.
• 1:58:24
  They post it there. So like new knuckles, reverse
• 1:58:28
  knuckles, they're on. Yahoo, which is.
• 1:58:30
  Good. Or like a lot of the because I
• 1:58:32
  need, I'm going to try to outfit my car like a JZXJZX is for some
• 1:58:37
  reason they rotate and they move so nice.
• 1:58:41
  But then you transfer the same design to the IS does not
• 1:58:45
  rotate. Nice.
• 1:58:46
  Interesting. So now I'm just gonna make it a
• 1:58:47
  JZX. Yeah.
• 1:58:49
  So 1 tip that you could possibly do is purchase those parts ahead
• 1:58:54
  of time and have it sent to your hotel.
• 1:58:57
  Hotels often hold parts for you. Yeah, they do.
• 1:59:00
  Just just to confirm, they still do that because I've done that
• 1:59:02
  before. Like I bought parts before going
• 1:59:06
  there. When I get there, I get the
• 1:59:07
  part, I put it in my bag, come home with it.
• 1:59:10
  So maybe that's. Yeah.
• 1:59:11
  You could ship it here too from yeah, I mean.
• 1:59:13
  Yeah, at the same time, I still want to just be.
• 1:59:16
  I know you want. To you want to get in I.
• 1:59:18
  Know I get hold of this yeah I want to be in the like.
• 1:59:21
  Yeah, let me see that. Like can I have that one?
• 1:59:24
  Right. Where are you going?
• 1:59:25
  To any shops or anything or like I.
• 1:59:26
  Don't know what I'm doing. I don't know, just.
• 1:59:28
  Getting off the plane like. I know we're doing, we're going
• 1:59:31
  to be, they're going to be driving TKL, they're going to be
• 1:59:35
  driving Mahon, I think Kansai All Stars.
• 1:59:37
  Nice. So I'm just going to be like,
• 1:59:39
  you're going to be, you're going to be watching.
• 1:59:41
  That's what I did. You're.
• 1:59:42
  Going to be watching a YouTube video and for some reason I'm
• 1:59:44
  just going to be like. Yeah, I mean, I feel like that's
• 1:59:47
  a good. First way to go, yeah.
• 1:59:49
  To go hang out. I'm excited for when they hit
• 1:59:52
  the fucking hills at night. Yeah.
• 1:59:54
  Did you do that? I didn't do that.
• 1:59:56
  That would have been get. Ready I still have next.
• 1:59:59
  I'm going to be sitting there. Yeah, that would have been like
• 2:00:03
  crazy. No, I haven't done that.
• 2:00:05
  That's. The only thing I care about with
• 2:00:06
  drifting in Japan, Yeah, St. Drifting.
• 2:00:08
  I don't really care about the tracks.
• 2:00:09
  Like they brought me to the tracks.
• 2:00:10
  I'm like, yeah. It's cool, Brad, you do the
• 2:00:12
  street drifting in Tokyo near. I wasn't.
• 2:00:15
  Even in Tokyo. Yeah, I.
• 2:00:16
  Didn't even get there. They did that.
• 2:00:18
  I was in Osaka. We might do that, I don't even
• 2:00:21
  know. Yeah, Tokyo seems fun, like, at
• 2:00:23
  least for a night. Like go there and try to
• 2:00:25
  experience a whole day and a night, yeah.
• 2:00:27
  Yeah, so. Have you gotten your
• 2:00:29
  international driver's lesson yet?
• 2:00:30
  There's a AAA by me that you're gonna.
• 2:00:32
  Stop by. Do it.
• 2:00:33
  Yeah, do it. Pop in there.
• 2:00:35
  It's the best. Yeah, I apparently you just walk
• 2:00:37
  in and get it. 20. Bucks Yeah 20.
• 2:00:39
  Bucks it's funny though, because like everyone here drives right
• 2:00:41
  hand drive cars, but like it doesn't matter like you go over
• 2:00:44
  there all my friends are like what the fuck everyone's turning
• 2:00:45
  the wrong way and shit it's. So bizarre.
• 2:00:48
  Yeah. I was practicing.
• 2:00:49
  Not used to it because they just can't.
• 2:00:50
  You can't read anything, so you're like you're trying to
• 2:00:52
  follow the rule and like I don't fucking know where I am.
• 2:00:54
  You're going on a one way like it was.
• 2:00:56
  It's so fun. The first car I ever rented out
• 2:00:58
  there it was basically 34 and. That would have been scared and.
• 2:01:04
  Be like a laminated piece of paper and said okay just follow
• 2:01:07
  these rules. Here you go, see ya like so why
• 2:01:10
  I was so stressed out? Dude, that would be a fucking
• 2:01:15
  trip. Renting a fucking GTR and just
• 2:01:19
  going over there and just making your own little.
• 2:01:20
  I'm gonna go here. Yo, that's exactly what I did.
• 2:01:23
  That's yeah. That's.
• 2:01:24
  Crazy life changing really yeah cuz it was all basically, you
• 2:01:29
  know, going back to Dreamcast and Tokyo Exchange racer yeah I
• 2:01:31
  was like. The road, Yeah, the highway.
• 2:01:34
  It's real. Dude, like, I'm driving the
• 2:01:36
  game, yeah. And I'm in the 34 and like, I
• 2:01:38
  ran into a bunch of dudes, like heading to Daikoku.
• 2:01:42
  So I saw like Porsches and Supras and FDS and all this shit
• 2:01:45
  and. You saw the actual roads,
• 2:01:47
  probably from the Games. Yeah, yeah, if you were in the
• 2:01:49
  Tokyo. Area Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 2:01:50
  That that I was on the C1 loop. Yeah, doing all that that's.
• 2:01:52
  So crazy. Stop that tatsumi before they
• 2:01:55
  put the wall up and all that like.
• 2:01:56
  I'm bought that key now cuz now low key cuz I wasn't really.
• 2:02:01
  Not that I'm not excited about it.
• 2:02:02
  To me, it's another trip, kind of forgetting that maybe where
• 2:02:05
  I'm going. I think you're gonna fucking.
• 2:02:07
  Love it. You're gonna like, realize.
• 2:02:09
  Like a lot of the thing for me that I'm kind of expecting and
• 2:02:13
  maybe like not so astounded of is dude, I went to so many Asian
• 2:02:18
  countries growing up. I guess we didn't go to Japan,
• 2:02:22
  but I went to Malaysia, I went to Singapore.
• 2:02:24
  I'm from I'm Filipino. I went to Philippines a lot.
• 2:02:27
  And then Hong Kong was cool. And like, what was in common
• 2:02:32
  with all of those except for maybe Singapore, was like, you
• 2:02:36
  get out of the city and it's all of a sudden like kind of a shit
• 2:02:40
  hole. That's what you always made it
• 2:02:42
  seem like to me. Like it was like dirt roads
• 2:02:45
  everywhere. There's just little convenience
• 2:02:46
  stores everywhere that sell like food and everything like that.
• 2:02:51
  It's like the opposite. Life is slowed down and.
• 2:02:53
  Did you go there for car shit bro?
• 2:02:56
  That's the problem. I did not.
• 2:02:57
  It was just. But I think in Japan, where
• 2:03:00
  these cars are domestics. I think it's going to be just
• 2:03:03
  cleaner and like, yeah, like everybody.
• 2:03:05
  Was saying how? Clean it is there and I'm like,
• 2:03:08
  I'm not used to that. Yeah.
• 2:03:10
  The country house that we had in the villa.
• 2:03:11
  Beans. Yeah.
• 2:03:12
  Shit hole, dude, Yeah. Like.
• 2:03:14
  That's why I think you're gonna like this a lot, yeah.
• 2:03:15
  It's gonna be different. You're gonna eat that that egg
• 2:03:18
  sandwich at 7:11. Bro.
• 2:03:21
  And the pancakes. SM 11 yo-yo my guy.
• 2:03:25
  Dude, this is the only thing about.
• 2:03:27
  Somebody told me right away, chicken, the family chicken or
• 2:03:32
  whatever. The Boss Coffee from and.
• 2:03:34
  Then the two pan a. Little piece of fried chicken,
• 2:03:36
  do you? Know.
• 2:03:37
  Yeah, then you get the. Two pancakes and you put them
• 2:03:39
  together. OK, that sounds amazing.
• 2:03:42
  That that's what they said to do, yes.
• 2:03:43
  Yeah, that's the move, bro. Dude, that's.
• 2:03:46
  Great, you could survive. For.
• 2:03:47
  Hell yeah. Off 711.
• 2:03:48
  Yeah, absolutely. I did that on my first trip
• 2:03:51
  there. Oh.
• 2:03:51
  My God, me too. Basically like I didn't, I went
• 2:03:53
  there. So, so I was like super nerdy
• 2:03:56
  when I was, I don't know, at at the time that I went to Japan
• 2:03:59
  and I was like just, I was really focused on Japanese car
• 2:04:03
  magazines and I really wanted to know how to read them.
• 2:04:06
  So I started studying Japanese and what not.
• 2:04:08
  And I went to Japan for the first time with this couple that
• 2:04:11
  I met here in the city who were teaching Japanese.
• 2:04:14
  And like they, they took me with them.
• 2:04:16
  They didn't give a shit about cars, but they took me with them
• 2:04:18
  to Tokyo. And then they just left me and
• 2:04:21
  they went to their hometown and I was in Tokyo like by myself.
• 2:04:25
  That's crazy. And I didn't know what the fuck
• 2:04:28
  to do because I, you know, I learned a little Japanese but I
• 2:04:30
  couldn't, I didn't have the confidence to go in a restaurant
• 2:04:32
  and be like Yo let me get this. So I lived off of 711 and AM PM
• 2:04:37
  for like 2 weeks by myself. But you can though, yeah.
• 2:04:40
  Yeah, and honestly it was awesome.
• 2:04:42
  Like I would. And at around that time, I
• 2:04:45
  wanted to go to all the car shops, but I didn't know how to
• 2:04:47
  speak Japanese. So I had all the magazines and I
• 2:04:49
  would like go to the train station and be like, how do I
• 2:04:52
  get here? And they would literally tell me
• 2:04:54
  how to get there. And I would just walk into the
• 2:04:55
  shops. I walk into Top Secret, into
• 2:04:57
  Muse, into Vertex, and they'd be like, hi, look around and that's
• 2:05:03
  it. And I had like an old Cyber-shot
• 2:05:06
  back then, just like. Taking a little snap, how old
• 2:05:09
  were you? Oh, this is 2006.
• 2:05:12
  So I was 2025. Wow.
• 2:05:16
  Then yeah. That's that's gotta be.
• 2:05:18
  And then back then you go to anywhere and they'll be so
• 2:05:21
  welcoming. Yeah.
• 2:05:22
  Of foreigners. Oh, yeah, yeah.
• 2:05:24
  Like over here, it's like, oh, insurance policies.
• 2:05:27
  Yeah, stuff. Oh dude.
• 2:05:29
  Right, like over there, I look around, think yeah, they.
• 2:05:31
  Literally walked into the top secret shop like like they were
• 2:05:35
  working on, I think they were working on the V12 Supra at the
• 2:05:37
  time. And I just walked in and just
• 2:05:39
  like, I was just watching him work on the engine, like, hey
• 2:05:41
  guys, what's up? Didn't give a shit.
• 2:05:44
  They were like, cool, all right, you want to get some food or
• 2:05:47
  something? That's so.
• 2:05:49
  Japan's awesome. Yeah.
• 2:05:51
  You're gonna so much fucking. I'm so excited for you man, but.
• 2:05:54
  Yeah, don't expect that. Everyone likes cars.
• 2:05:58
  Oh yeah. Yeah, no.
• 2:05:59
  That's the I know, I know that much like just cuz that that's
• 2:06:03
  like if I was sitting outside and I was asking about like a
• 2:06:06
  Ford Taurus that just drove by like, Oh my God, look at the
• 2:06:08
  R30. Four, Yeah.
• 2:06:10
  You know what I mean? So I'm there to experience it,
• 2:06:13
  to just experience it real quick, like.
• 2:06:16
  You'd be surprised, though. Like it's ingrained in the
• 2:06:18
  culture. Yeah.
• 2:06:20
  So, you know, I got married a couple years ago.
• 2:06:22
  My wife is from Hokkaido, and she told her family that I like
• 2:06:26
  cars or whatever, but she's like, nobody in my in my family
• 2:06:28
  likes cars. I'm like, OK, fine, fine,
• 2:06:30
  whatever. You know, it's cool.
• 2:06:31
  And then I'm talking to her dad and he's like, yeah, so you
• 2:06:35
  know, this car, it's called A180SX.
• 2:06:37
  This is one of my favourites. And I also like the Supra.
• 2:06:40
  And I'm like, yo, this motherfucker's spitting right
• 2:06:42
  now. He knows exactly.
• 2:06:44
  What? I don't like this stuff.
• 2:06:45
  But it's just in great. It's just part of the culture.
• 2:06:48
  It's like, I guess here it's like everyone knows what a
• 2:06:49
  Mustang is like, you know, kind of thing.
• 2:06:52
  So dude, are you surprised? We went to a steak house one
• 2:06:54
  night. We didn't in like Kobe, Japan.
• 2:06:58
  We were like, let's get Kobe Bee and get a Kobe steak.
• 2:07:00
  Like do everything. We go there, we're just hanging
• 2:07:02
  out. The guy's, it's a small, it's
• 2:07:04
  like the size of this fuck, maybe two of these rooms.
• 2:07:06
  That's it. It's super tiny.
• 2:07:08
  They have all these kind of steak houses there because
• 2:07:10
  tourists like us. And this guy, our waiters like
• 2:07:13
  talking to us. It's like a very kind of
• 2:07:15
  personal thing. It's like only two waiters.
• 2:07:17
  And so we're going to know a guy and he's got pretty good at
• 2:07:21
  English and we're like, yeah, we're here for drifting.
• 2:07:23
  And he's like, oh, cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 2:07:25
  And we're like, this guy definitely has no idea, like.
• 2:07:27
  And then he's like, yeah, we're like, yeah, we have Nissans.
• 2:07:31
  You know, he's like, oh, I used to work at Nissan.
• 2:07:33
  We're like, oh, cool. Yeah, when he's like like 2002
• 2:07:38
  thousand 2001, we're like, oh, wow.
• 2:07:41
  Like what kind of cars did you have?
• 2:07:42
  He's like, I had a S15 Sylvia. OK, so.
• 2:07:46
  Casual, that's normal. Yeah, that's.
• 2:07:48
  And he's like, yeah, we used to go race up in the mountains and
• 2:07:51
  I'm like, Oh my God. Like just this random dude we
• 2:07:53
  met is just like drifting up in the mountain, right, Whatnot.
• 2:07:56
  Like yeah, Oh my. God.
• 2:07:57
  It was so random. Yeah, borned up to.
• 2:07:59
  Go. And then he crashed that shit.
• 2:08:01
  Right. Yeah, he's like, yeah, I crashed
• 2:08:03
  it on the mountain, Yeah. And.
• 2:08:05
  What the fuck? But it's just kind of like part
• 2:08:06
  of the upbringing, you know, It's like, Oh yeah, I had one of
• 2:08:09
  those. It's like having a Mustang and
• 2:08:10
  crashing issue. Exactly.
• 2:08:12
  Some people like keep going, and some people just kind of go do
• 2:08:15
  other. Shit, it doesn't last forever
• 2:08:16
  for everyone. Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
• 2:08:18
  So, but yeah. We could we could keep talking
• 2:08:21
  for hours, but I feel like we should probably cut this one.
• 2:08:23
  What time is it? I mean like almost.
• 2:08:25
  Didn't we just start like? Right.
• 2:08:27
  Doesn't it feel that well? It's almost 10:00.
• 2:08:29
  At night, anything. Oh yeah, you yeah, you guys got
• 2:08:32
  a full day tomorrow? Anything that you guys wanted to
• 2:08:34
  share or get? Yeah.
• 2:08:35
  Do you guys have any events coming on?
• 2:08:36
  NYC there's. 2 events coming up, hopefully St. icons.
• 2:08:42
  Well, yeah, so we did this event many years ago called St.
• 2:08:46
  Icons, and it was like, it was like a street, another St.
• 2:08:50
  session that we do. But you know, we just brought
• 2:08:52
  all the JDM cards out to the city or whatever.
• 2:08:53
  But we haven't done that in many, many years.
• 2:08:56
  And it's kind of like the The unofficial sort of sequel to 7's
• 2:09:00
  Day. Wait, where's the location?
• 2:09:01
  What was the location a couple years ago?
• 2:09:04
  When we did St. icons, that was. It was about six or seven years
• 2:09:07
  ago now, but that was. OK, then I wasn't there.
• 2:09:09
  Uptown, that was. There's this place called the
• 2:09:11
  Cloisters up in upper Manhattan. OK.
• 2:09:15
  It's literally the castle. Yeah.
• 2:09:17
  Oh, shit. So.
• 2:09:18
  And at night you can park there. Like.
• 2:09:19
  So we had cars up there and then we all cruised down to the city
• 2:09:22
  and it was like, oh wait, I feel.
• 2:09:23
  Like I know what you're talking. About Yeah, yeah, I.
• 2:09:25
  Was there the other night by accident?
• 2:09:26
  Oh shit, I swear to God. I want to say like 150 something
• 2:09:29
  St. Uptown is.
• 2:09:30
  It is it past the George Russian Bridge?
• 2:09:32
  Yeah, yeah, yes. They shut the bridge down and
• 2:09:35
  I'm trying to find a fucking way to get home.
• 2:09:37
  That's what are you guys. Doing with the water.
• 2:09:39
  Fuck am I. I'm at a castle right now and
• 2:09:41
  it's like people are just chilling, hanging out.
• 2:09:43
  I'm like, where the fuck am I? Yeah, that's definitely what it
• 2:09:45
  is. Yeah, so we started there and
• 2:09:47
  then we just hit the city or whatever.
• 2:09:49
  So like this year we've been doing a lot of different events
• 2:09:51
  and like we just did the Honda Collective and it was just like
• 2:09:55
  it was so much fun. So like, dude, we got to do one
• 2:09:57
  more before the for the end of the year.
• 2:09:59
  I think you. Guys, kneel.
• 2:10:00
  Like that, if it wasn't for you guys enjoying yourselves, we.
• 2:10:03
  Oh, I love it. And everyone who goes to these
• 2:10:05
  events would not have. We wouldn't have events like
• 2:10:08
  that if you guys weren't around. I love it.
• 2:10:10
  Thank you. Thank you.
• 2:10:11
  Yeah, like. Dude the 7th day event I don't
• 2:10:13
  even really do many. We don't do many car shows ever.
• 2:10:16
  Michael, that one ugly bro, Yeah.
• 2:10:19
  We used to do Nissan night back in the day.
• 2:10:21
  I think you guys came out to those wait.
• 2:10:23
  Nissan night. Maybe that was the one on our.
• 2:10:24
  Like 23rd. You came to that one, I
• 2:10:26
  remember. The one in Brooklyn, maybe.
• 2:10:28
  That was in in long, yeah, between Queens and Brooklyn.
• 2:10:31
  OK, Yeah, yeah, yeah, you. Guys went all the way out there,
• 2:10:34
  I remember. It was fun, though.
• 2:10:35
  It was like after work, yeah. Like we were just like, yo,
• 2:10:37
  let's go. Everyone met up here and we just
• 2:10:39
  drove out. That was, that's neat.
• 2:10:41
  Was fun as fuck. Yeah.
• 2:10:42
  Yeah, like more like that would be cool.
• 2:10:44
  Yeah, you know what I mean. I.
• 2:10:45
  Mean our core will always be St. events, right?
• 2:10:48
  Sessions where for sure he's linked up with the actual
• 2:10:50
  community itself, not some crazy show or something.
• 2:10:53
  Yeah, yeah. So, so there's that.
• 2:10:55
  And then we used to do a lot of like articles and stuff like
• 2:10:59
  like content, like magazines and stuff like that.
• 2:11:02
  And we kind of want to go back to that as well, like, you know,
• 2:11:06
  photography and write ups and stuff like that, like magazine
• 2:11:08
  style do feature cars and whatnot.
• 2:11:11
  Because I feel like right now it's so easy to consume.
• 2:11:14
  Like, oh, here's this guy's account.
• 2:11:15
  You just see it, but it's different when somebody else is
• 2:11:18
  presenting it to you. And then we kind of grew up with
• 2:11:21
  that, like the import tuner and the and super street and
• 2:11:24
  whatnot. So, so we have this concept for
• 2:11:27
  next year to sort of like bring that back from a sort of like
• 2:11:31
  content creation perspective, but not like what you see these
• 2:11:33
  these days with like reels and stuff like that, just more like
• 2:11:36
  what we all. Sort of grew up with slower
• 2:11:38
  maybe, yeah, less, less consumable.
• 2:11:40
  Yeah, grab a cup of coffee, sit down, you know, read something.
• 2:11:43
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. We've probably got like 10
• 2:11:45
  readers, but whatever. Our friend Justin Smalls.
• 2:11:49
  What, what was that thing called?
• 2:11:50
  The the app or whatever is it a it's not a Patreon.
• 2:11:57
  It's. I don't remember.
• 2:11:59
  It's an app people use for blogs basically, and maybe.
• 2:12:06
  Oh yeah, he was starting his own thing.
• 2:12:08
  Yeah. And it ate like.
• 2:12:10
  I I, I bought it. We had it.
• 2:12:13
  Yeah. And it's fucking awesome, man.
• 2:12:15
  He, he makes articles basically of all old JDM drift culture
• 2:12:19
  stuff. Sick.
• 2:12:20
  So every once in a while you get an e-mail and it's like, you
• 2:12:23
  know, a new post or whatever and you click it and you're just
• 2:12:25
  reading all this shit. You're like, dude, what?
• 2:12:26
  This is like all this crazy knowledge that I didn't know.
• 2:12:28
  I wanted to know. But yeah, it's really cool.
• 2:12:30
  So sick. Yeah.
• 2:12:31
  I'm thinking maybe something like that.
• 2:12:33
  We're talking about J Smalls right now.
• 2:12:34
  I saw him like literally a couple of days.
• 2:12:35
  Ago in Texas. I was chilling in Texas.
• 2:12:39
  Right. The car community is so sick for
• 2:12:41
  this. When I was chilling, I look
• 2:12:44
  around, I see a Sequoia. I have a Sequoia.
• 2:12:47
  I love sequoias. I see a Sequoia.
• 2:12:49
  I'm like, that kind of looks like Justin's car.
• 2:12:54
  And then I was like, wait, I'm in Texas.
• 2:12:55
  Yeah, you're right. Look.
• 2:12:56
  To the left, and there's Justin. That's so funny.
• 2:12:59
  Finally, finally, you did it to him where you just appear, where
• 2:13:03
  he lives. I.
• 2:13:03
  Was like. Dude, he always appears over
• 2:13:04
  here. Really.
• 2:13:05
  What are you doing here? He's just materialized.
• 2:13:07
  This is the Lone Star, Jeff Boom.
• 2:13:09
  It's the knuckle up group. Knuckle up.
• 2:13:11
  Yeah, Knuckle up is like a newer.
• 2:13:13
  Dude, I got to meet Jimmy. Crew got to meet Jimmy.
• 2:13:15
  Jimmy's cool. He's like 4 feet taller than me.
• 2:13:18
  Jimmy Yates down there is the one that really started this
• 2:13:21
  whole knuckle up thing. It's kind of a little bit like
• 2:13:25
  what you guys do with the car events, but it's for drifting.
• 2:13:28
  So it's kind of like a, I wouldn't say.
• 2:13:32
  I think he screens the car he just screens.
• 2:13:34
  Him, let's put it that way, you know what I mean?
• 2:13:37
  So your car has to look the part in order to pretty much get to
• 2:13:40
  the event. But it's a legitimate drift
• 2:13:42
  event too. So, you know, it's kind of a
• 2:13:44
  mixture of both those things they do.
• 2:13:45
  Entry com and of course. He gets hate for that shit but.
• 2:13:48
  Yeah, you know, it is whenever, whenever you put standards on
• 2:13:51
  something, it's like what? About.
• 2:13:53
  Me, yeah. Yeah, sorry.
• 2:13:54
  Wait, I can't go. Yeah, it's the whole man
• 2:13:57
  character syndrome. Yeah.
• 2:13:58
  That was a great event, dude. I showed up there, said hi to
• 2:14:01
  Jimmy. All of a sudden I'm on track
• 2:14:03
  watching this entry. That's.
• 2:14:04
  Cool. What?
• 2:14:05
  The fuck Malcolm, you found that that page?

• 2:14:12
  App. Club stack sub.
• 2:14:13
  Stack sucks. OK, yeah, I know those so.
• 2:14:15
  Look at this shit, dude. It's like, it's like basically
• 2:14:17
  like A blog, you know? Oh, this is dope.
• 2:14:19
  Yeah, and then I think he gives a decent amount of this shit
• 2:14:22
  away for. Free.
• 2:14:24
  Oh, it's like historical if you. Want to read this one you have?
• 2:14:27
  The paper is locked. Oh, I see you can.
• 2:14:29
  Read a certain. Amount.
• 2:14:30

• 2:14:33
  is a good vibe for. You Oh, so it's like historical
• 2:14:35

• 2:14:51
  this for for the locals, you know, yeah, like there's so many
• 2:14:54
  nice cars around here and we just want to, you know, just
• 2:14:57
  rebuild the platform for for folks to just get to know some
• 2:15:01
  builds and some people and the stories behind them.
• 2:15:03
  So yeah, that'd be awesome. Yeah.
• 2:15:05
  Yeah. You said you had two events
• 2:15:07
  maybe. Or yeah, another event we saw in
• 2:15:10
  sort of planning stages and things.
• 2:15:13
  Petrol works. I will go out and tap this in.
• 2:15:15
  They have a small facility for like, cars and coffee.
• 2:15:18
  So maybe we'll do like, you know, a session, maybe like
• 2:15:21
  night session or something OK of 90s Japanese tuning, you know,
• 2:15:25
  something. Yeah, something St. event.
• 2:15:26

  Long Island. Rs drive anytime.
• 2:15:37
  Something I mean if you guys want to do something out here.
• 2:15:39
  OK. So I wanted to bring this up.
• 2:15:40
  We had our, we had our open house, right?
• 2:15:42
  We had that in April. Yeah, we probably told everyone
• 2:15:45
  three weeks before or less. The place was mobbed and
• 2:15:51
  basically we can't do that again.
• 2:15:52
  It went great. It was a beautiful time.
• 2:15:55
  My landlords were not here, thank God.
• 2:15:58
  But. The police were great.
• 2:16:00
  All right, we're gonna do it again.
• 2:16:02
  I mean we probably will do something again one day but the
• 2:16:05
  town fucking hated me like this town is not.
• 2:16:08
  Why did they car friendly? I guess they're not groups of
• 2:16:12
  anyone friendly it seems like. I see.
• 2:16:15
  And I tried my hardest to talk to everyone and get everything
• 2:16:19
  before we did it, but it seemed like the town kind of just
• 2:16:22
  didn't understand what was going to happen.
• 2:16:25
  Yeah. So, you know, maybe I need you
• 2:16:26
  guys. I, I don't know, Yeah.
• 2:16:29
  Look at prob. How would you say no to prob?
• 2:16:31

  She's probably like 70 years old and there's people with tattoos
• 2:16:57

  three different things before Promise and other stuff that was
• 2:17:15
  going on, so I didn't get murdered by her, but she was
• 2:17:18
  not. Happy.
• 2:17:19
  She was not happy yet, but. I've also I've learned there's
• 2:17:22
  there's lots of like egos. Yeah, 100.
• 2:17:25
  Percent that come out out of nowhere.
• 2:17:27
  Yep. You have to placate some of
• 2:17:29
  these egos from the beginning. Chamber of Commerce is a great
• 2:17:32
  way to start. Yeah, next.
• 2:17:34
  Find out what they like, Yeah. The other answer, something
• 2:17:36
  second problem is by gifts, the lot situation.
• 2:17:40
  Yeah. Like it's we don't really have a
• 2:17:42
  lot of parking. And then we we talked to U-Haul.
• 2:17:44
  U-Haul didn't care about parking cars on the street.
• 2:17:46
  Yeah, we actually had them lined up pretty damn well.
• 2:17:49
  It was perfect. But then the police came and
• 2:17:50
  they're like, oh, you can't do this.
• 2:17:51
  And we're like, OK, But I went and talked to you guys twice
• 2:17:55
  before we did this, you guys. Want to do a city run?
• 2:17:57
  Yeah. We got to do run and gun that
• 2:17:59
  shit. Yeah, we got to do something
• 2:18:00
  like that, Yeah. And that would be fun.
• 2:18:01
  Do a little MetLife guy dude. Or that or yeah, like something
• 2:18:05
  local. There's a race, the MetLife
• 2:18:07
  race. Lots are massive.
• 2:18:09
  Yeah, huge. Huge and the race track.
• 2:18:12
  Can we do something there at night?
• 2:18:14
  That's what I want to know. We got.
• 2:18:17
  I know. Someone who used to do events
• 2:18:19
  there. There's so.
• 2:18:20
  Fire up the text messages if. You please.
• 2:18:23
  I'll be involved in this. Because if you find I have.
• 2:18:28
  Dude, you know what I'm talking about, right?
• 2:18:30
  Yeah. Every time I fix my car and I
• 2:18:32
  drive it home from here, I will take a route where I drive
• 2:18:35
  through there. Yeah.
• 2:18:36
  There is a view of this. Like there's a city skyline
• 2:18:40
  that's just lit up. Beautiful.
• 2:18:41
  Yeah. And you're just like, what the
• 2:18:42
  fuck? Like I'm just driving.
• 2:18:44
  Home right now waste. Yeah, and there's a.
• 2:18:45
  Tons of parking dude. What's shitty is that it's
• 2:18:48
  American Dream now too. But.
• 2:18:50
  They don't use that other lot where giant state.
• 2:18:52
  No, I'm talking like right by the sports book dude, because.
• 2:18:56
  The sports book is. Still old looking that that
• 2:19:00
  hotel or whatever. I honestly don't really know.
• 2:19:03
  You're talking by the horse track, yeah.
• 2:19:05
  Yeah, it still looks old. Like it looks cool.
• 2:19:09
  Yeah, like, I don't know, it's got.
• 2:19:11
  Some nice atmosphere. Yeah, like it's got.
• 2:19:14
  We always wanted to drift there too.
• 2:19:15
  I know they tried it one time back in the day or.
• 2:19:17
  What happened thing? They eventually were like, oh,
• 2:19:20
  you can't leave marks in the. Oh the fuck.
• 2:19:23
  Did you think was? Going to happen auto cross
• 2:19:24
  people leave mark. Yeah, they do auto cross over
• 2:19:26
  there, but they can't just give us a little section for.
• 2:19:29
  Drifting like gosh. It's not that crazy.
• 2:19:31
  There's there's a lot all the way in the back, like almost by
• 2:19:34
  Patterson Plank Road. Now they keep police equipment
• 2:19:37
  in there, so don't go there. But before that was the first
• 2:19:42
  place I ever felt third gear. It was like why I?
• 2:19:45
  Was like. Dude.
• 2:19:48
  For that that. Turnpike entrance ramp that was
• 2:19:50
  always empty back then. Yeah, but then, yeah, but now.
• 2:19:54
  If now people are using it. Let's say if you want to hit it,
• 2:19:57
  you and you mess it up and you got to do.
• 2:19:58
  It again. Yeah, you.
• 2:19:59
  Have to pay another toll. To do it again.
• 2:20:01
  True, True. True.
• 2:20:02
  Like fuck $3 to get a try. There was a ramp back there that
• 2:20:06
  no one was on, so we would drive down it, fucking turn around,
• 2:20:09
  come back like we would just, yeah, use it like it's an empty
• 2:20:12
  Rd. But now that the American Dream
• 2:20:15
  is open, they're probably using that, actually, yeah.
• 2:20:16
  It's split. It's right there.
• 2:20:18
  Yeah, because I've thought about it.
• 2:20:20
  I'm like, if I can hold us down here. 4th.
• 2:20:22
  Yeah. And then just like throw it.
• 2:20:24
  Yeah. And then it's just like a.
• 2:20:27
  Yeah. Yeah, it was fun.
• 2:20:28
  Yeah, I don't know. We got to figure that out.
• 2:20:30
  We'll talk because that event was so much fun.
• 2:20:33
  Yeah. Definitely want to do something
• 2:20:34
  with you guys, so. Yeah, we want to do this too.
• 2:20:36
  Yeah, it would be cool. You know, just like.
• 2:20:38
  Dude, get some, get a little hype back in the.
• 2:20:41
  Yeah, for, like for because. Right now we're all like trying
• 2:20:44
  to have everybody. Everyone in the Drift community
• 2:20:46
  cares about style and style. This yeah, so.
• 2:20:50
  But then like, yeah, yeah, yes, you do.
• 2:20:53
  But the problem is, is that some people, when I'm making fun of
• 2:20:56
  the people that do say that, yeah, because those are the ones
• 2:20:59
  that have the ugliest car. I see where you were.
• 2:21:02
  Going with that style. Or.
• 2:21:04
  Clearly you don't. Or they don't St. their cars and
• 2:21:08
  they just make their cars look good.
• 2:21:09
  But it's not. We want to actually like.
• 2:21:11
  Yeah, we want to have like a street event or so, you know,
• 2:21:13
  it's like drive your car out, you know?
• 2:21:14
  What I mean, right, right, right.
• 2:21:16
  Yeah, I feel. Like that'd be good because
• 2:21:17
  there's so many nice cars, but they they just trailer to.
• 2:21:20
  Drive. Drive your car.
• 2:21:22
  Yeah, DY instead. Of BYLB.
• 2:21:24
  DYC Bring. Your own beer.
• 2:21:27
  Drive that'd. Be cool, man.
• 2:21:28

  Yeah, dream about it. Just.
• 2:27:47
  Do something, do something. Figure it out.
• 2:27:49
  Make time. Yeah, we all have the same
• 2:27:51
  amount of time of the day. Yeah, that's the one of the most
• 2:27:56
  important quotes I think I've ever heard in my life.
• 2:28:00
  We all have the same amount. That was the most influential
• 2:28:03
  quote that someone said to me that I heard.
• 2:28:07
  Who said that? Someone, someone on a podcast
• 2:28:09
  probably, but they're, they're like, oh, we all have the same
• 2:28:12
  amount of time in the day. I don't know.
• 2:28:16
  Oh yeah, it could have been Gary V It could have been.
• 2:28:19
  Not Eddie B. Not Eddie B, Gary V Gary V
• 2:28:23
  Meaning What does that mean? It means you and Elon Musk have
• 2:28:27
  the same amount of time in the day.
• 2:28:29
  So if he's managing to do all this crazy shit, you can, you
• 2:28:35
  can do more than you're doing probably.
• 2:28:37
  Yeah, that's just a crazy example, but that's that's
• 2:28:40
  pretty much what it means. So.
• 2:28:44
  Well, I'm motivated. Are you?
• 2:28:46
  Yeah. OK.
• 2:28:47
  Stop wasting time doing this podcast.
