@Albo you mentioned that you have an AP2 Gearbox on your AP1 engine. What needs to be considered when switching the Gearbox? I also have an AP1 and would like to throw an AP2 Gearbox in Many thanks in advance.
People move on. The guys needed to take their careers to the next level and I can’t blame them. It’s cool that DDE now is based at their old burn yard/warehouse though. More fuckery at “The Block”.
I think alot of guys lost interest in where hoonigan was heading and wanted to do their own stuff cuz Vin even said the craziness just ain't apart of hoonigan anymore like what DDE is doing now he wants to keep with it! So yes I don't blame them moving on either specially if you lost interest! People miss the old content the fun! Not saying some might not find this fun It's boring plus Hoonigan had kept people in the dark about stuff I'm sure there are reasons why but sucks for the fans
Good to see ya Mr Diaz, and I knew Gary was a keeper when he did the Zulu dance during a burnout involving an RB. “It’s the song of my people”. Now that’s og.
Gary and Mica are rocking it, people need to calm down about Hoonigan not being this or that anymore! I do miss Scotto buying five cars he doesn’t need because they all have different side mirrors
For USDM cars, the AP2 actually makes 10-15 more HP than the AP1 across most of the rev range, as confirmed many times on the same dyno. Honda started using a different HP measurement standard when the AP2 was introduced so its stated HP is not apples to apples.
ALBO doesn't know wtf he's talking about.. just like majority of the ap1 community, they think that the higher rev's give them the extra advantage. Just an FYI.. I can teach "English" in Japan if I wanted to.. ROFL!
It's way, way more fun with mods. Even just suspension mods and a square tire setup drastically improves it. But obviously a supercharger or turbo setup is on another level of enjoyment if you like speed.
No, we loved to see how Hert broke someone's car, how Scotto buys another broken car that he will never repair, how Suppy and Brad built something rad, how Kikawa got mocked in every possible moment, Ron, Vin, and all the OG's that I didn't mention. How many many people got scumbaged into trashing their belongings in the backyard, and the list goes on and on. And of course how all of those people helped Ken make amazing movies!
That was a different time my friend that won't be repeated, time moves on and this feels like the old times with the chill vibes and a deep dive into the car and landscape@@romka_ind
Man I love the Japan content that’s been posted these past few days. I know everyone’s been saying they’re tired of the TvT stuff and here is some content that’s feels like a genuine breath of fresh air. But what do I see? I see these videos trail behind in views compared to TvT videos uploaded before AND after this. It’s frustrating to see y’all put some quality content out and not see it rake in the same numbers of the content all the naysayers are saying they’re tired of. I can’t help but feel that all these folks who’re saying Hoonigan is dying (or died) aren’t giving you boys a fighting chance when this series is clearly showing that you are still dedicated to providing interesting car culture content. I may not watch all your stuff nowadays, but know that I still support you guys nonetheless. ✊
Great to see Albo on Hoonigan! Such a beautiful build. Small note, the AP1 makes more horsepower than the AP2 only paper ;) . SAE changed the standard of horsepower in 2005. Right during production years of the S2000, so when you compare a well running AP1 vs AP2 on a dynometer, the AP2 will make more whp and wtq.
expects in europe, where the ap2 engine is the same 2l .... p.s. f20c are not really bulletproof. they brake on the autobahn and honestly a prefer a domestic bmw. just works, once you ignore the oem service intervals. there is a reason why most people here in germany drive bmw's on the track.
I'll have had mine for 15yrs next month, it's definitely a forever car. I've just spent the last year getting it track ready, mostly stripped interior with a half cage, no passenger seat, no AC, I've pulled well over 100kgs out of it over the years, still got way more I wanna do to it! People who don't get them just aren't used to a car that doesn't have torque, which I get, torque makes things more streetable. But it's when you use an s2k for what it's made for, that you'll truly appreciate it.
I got to take my R32 to Hakone pass with my friends in a Chaser and SC Alteza. Was such an amazing and fun day. Could've spent the whole day going up and down.
This video makes me feel so justified in owning an S2k 🥲 it's crazy to me the amount of people that say it's overrated. I think those people haven't driven it in the correct environment and experienced it in its purest form while on twisty roads!
Smooth Steering 101, Look at your horizon. Not the land/sky horizon but the furthest possible horizon on the road. Rough Steering means the driver is reacting instead of acting. Effing Great vid.
Yes it has long held the Touge Maou title but don't tell anyone prices are already insane & has only recently finally just started to ever so slightly shift back towards somewhat realistic price points.
I feel like Hoonigan has lost its soul a little. I’ve been a fan since day one, and I’ll be a Hoonigan until I die. But the beautiful production and such just seems like all of the other automotive channels.
not without first putting thousands of $ in parts. being in stock it has many shortcomings, this unit have around 15000$ invested. If you add the 25-30000, that ask the owners, for example in spain, you go near of 45000€ car
It's a shame the price of these scars sky rocketed. I wanted to buy one to out a 2J in it and after seeing the cost of them used theyre not worth it to me anymore.
Sweet car but the owner is wrong about the AP1 engine being more powerful than the AP2. Peak power is about the same but the larger F22 makes more torque in the low and mid range.
So much fun and such an honor to collab with you guys!
@ALBO It was awesome to see your S2000 being featured on Hoonigan, wish I could see it myself in person one day!
Happy to see you in a new video with the s2k! Hope you doing good Albo💪🇯🇵
@Albo you mentioned that you have an AP2 Gearbox on your AP1 engine. What needs to be considered when switching the Gearbox? I also have an AP1 and would like to throw an AP2 Gearbox in
Many thanks in advance.
We need more of this type of content, car culture! And Uncle Gary 👏🏽👏🏽
everyone complaining about all the ogs leaving but gary and micah have been around since the og burn yard days🤷🏻♂️ im all for this kinda content
People move on. The guys needed to take their careers to the next level and I can’t blame them. It’s cool that DDE now is based at their old burn yard/warehouse though. More fuckery at “The Block”.
ogs got their fame now they do their own thing,
these two where guests that took over and thats great,
this content i like becuz it shows what works,
They're the reason I'm still watching. Ones the undisputed King of the Man Line, and the other of the funniest MFs out there.
This was cool
I think alot of guys lost interest in where hoonigan was heading and wanted to do their own stuff cuz Vin even said the craziness just ain't apart of hoonigan anymore like what DDE is doing now he wants to keep with it!

They need to bring back the s2000
Im sure they will bring a fwd version because thats what the world wants.
They need to make the S2000 R
They’d make it electric 😞
Nah they would make it look like the new integra 😂
Just buy one
That windy road overhead at 0:30 sure put a smile on my face
Nice to see @Albo in a Hoonigan video. This is awesome!
Hoonigan isn’t even hoonigan anymore lmao 🤣
So glad to see you guys collabing with Albo!
Absolutely love everything about my s2000! From how it looks, how it drives to how it sounds!
Nice crossover with Albo🎉
Love Albo's S2000, ive beeen following his build since he got it.
Gary and Micah holding it down
Good to see ya Mr Diaz, and I knew Gary was a keeper when he did the Zulu dance during a burnout involving an RB. “It’s the song of my people”. Now that’s og.
bro got the Spoon philosophy and I love it. What a great build, all parts working in harmony
The lil'tire squeek out of that cute Honda chase van made this entire video.
Gary and Mica are rocking it, people need to calm down about Hoonigan not being this or that anymore! I do miss Scotto buying five cars he doesn’t need because they all have different side mirrors
😂 accurate
I want to hear Gary's thought of driving on Hakone. But who's driving the third car at 11:22? 😂
Glad Hoonigan still making content! Might not be the full crew but you can still feel the love for the cars!
I like how you moved to this style of content, I will miss old burnyard but this is pure vibe!
lol wasn't expecting the Keijo clip at 0:53 !
Lol that anime was a unique one

I love this episode. Two of my favorite content creators collaborating together. Always like hearing more about Albo's car.
I’ve owned a stock s2000 for ten years now, every winter I say I’m going to mod it but it’s so reliable I talk myself out of it by spring.
Get it supercharged you won’t regret it
It's way, way more fun with mods. Even just suspension mods and a square tire setup drastically improves it. But obviously a supercharger or turbo setup is on another level of enjoyment if you like speed.
This is exactly the type of content that hoonigan fans love. Me as an initial D fan loves it even more. Micah Diaz is keeping hoonigan alive 🤙🤙🤙

whaaaaaat good to see you here @ALBO whaat and Gary @kinganytime out here .. whaaaaat
Finally something that isn't "this vs that"
We’re working hard to bring variety to the channel. 3 more Japan videos then Ice Race content coming soon.
@@TheHoonigans badass! Happy to hear it.
Had my s2000 for 14 years now. Big wing with big Hoonigan sticker on 😍😍😍 2002 yellow ap1

2nd part of Hoonigan Gang trio to Japan continue.
Part 3 today! 3 more to come next week
08:25 IS OFFICIALLY A MEME.
I would love to see you guys collaborate with Noriyaro and Sammit maybe hit up some shops too.
One of the coolest colabs ever
I got to take my R32 to Hakone pass with my friends in a Chaser and SC Alteza. Was such an amazing and fun day. Could've spent the whole day going up and down.
Fantastic episode, wonderful convo.
Love S2K content!
God, I wish I were as good of a driver as that. Also, pinned by the official Hoonigan channel is such a bragging right
This was a great wee episode. Looking forward to the Bosozoku/Shakotan cars next episode!
Kaido racer* not bosozoku
@@alterior8869 Two sides of the same coin lol
This was fully a great episode 😊

Let's go for Gary getting to live out a dream! Hell yeah bud!
nice touch on the extra headlight like a FD3s
Wait, is wheel pros, wait. I mean, hoonigan actually listening to to viewers and putting out real content again!
Best looking convertible sports car ever made by humans, the Honda S2000 Rocks !
Albo on Hoonigan! Go Albo!
Awesome to see the Albo collabs!
Wow a car video good work guys
Amazing S2K 💛
Driving the roads from Initial D is one of my bucket list dreams
I love the fact you guys rented the R34 from Omoshiro. I rented it a year ago, hopefully it treated you guys well.
We have a musical road like that in Palmdale off of ave G
that Honda Freed casually following the S2000 11:21
I was lucky enough to drive an fd down this pass, amazing experience!!
Let’s go!!!! More Japan videos! 🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵
Hoonigan touched japan 💛🖤
Thank you Micah and Uncle Gary ❤️👍🫶

11:20 unexpected Honda Freed 🤣
FUJIMI KAIDO ❤🤙
They have a song road in Lancaster and Palmdale California.
Sounded like Micah was doing a segment for Top Gear!
11:18 that van tho!
I hope to make S2000 video like albo
Beautiful build
We really do need song roads here or whatever they're called. Especially for long ass drives.
1:45 can someone please please tell me the name of that beat?!
Sandstorm by Darude
I want the GTR Gary is driving!
Was wondering when this mashup would happen.
not without first putting thousands of $ in parts. being in stock it has many shortcomings, this unit have around 15000$ invested. If you add the 25-30000, that ask the owners, for example in spain, you go near of 45000€ car
Northern California is beautiful. Shasta has snow year round 😂
Micah should look into destroked ls7s, they're regularly 8k+ RPM all day.
Grassroots HOONIGAN let’s go!!!!!
ALBO!
Always interesting ro see how well the Honda S2000 V-Tec performs under 300hp. That 9000 RPM is impressive.
Albo!!! That’s what’s up man.
Give credit to the people who built his car for him.. and not the man who pays for it.
It's a shame the price of these scars sky rocketed. I wanted to buy one to out a 2J in it and after seeing the cost of them used theyre not worth it to me anymore.
Hoonigan is cooking once again. But different
S2k is goated
There is nothing like a S2K.
Just realized the voodoo in my gt350 sounds identical to a Honda 4 cylinder 😂
F@%king awesome. "UNC" was on that azz of that 2k.
does heat from the engine compartment damage/wear out the carbon hood without a liner?
More touge or drift content in Japan?
That's like saying is hoonigan still relevant.
Vid idea this vs that the RB19 vs the hoonigan
Why did hoonigan leave the Compton warehouse?
Hoonigan is no longer Hoonigan 🤷♂️ DDE THE NEW HOONIGAN
They just wanted space to do more stuff
GARY KING JR is baddest man around town an now hes moppin the streats of Japanese lets hear it for him
Good stuff
God Hand and God Foot.
Sweet car but the owner is wrong about the AP1 engine being more powerful than the AP2. Peak power is about the same but the larger F22 makes more torque in the low and mid range.
What did you expect coming from an AP1 owner... lol
He's quoting the power output in Japan. The F20C was rated at 250PS (247HP) while the F22C was rated at 242PS (239 HP)
@@F0BBYLEE good point lol
@@UmarTheGreat10 I guess that makes sense but the way it was conveyed is misleading
@11:54 Initial G
Nice car!
Class!
Between 200 to 300 HP is just the sweet spot to train us to be a better driver.. especially when the car only weights 1 ton..
This car is closer to 1.5 tons stock. about 2750-2800 lbs
Yes s2000 r the best hand down not biased because I own one I swear 😅
Let me hold those CE28s for research purposes
The guy correcting someone on pronunciation then immediately says "where we're at..." Lolol
