Good luck and hope everything goes well for the OG Scottie Kanemura. Maybe one day we'll see him come back to the state with a plan for some bad ass JDM builds for us to feast our eyes on!
That Corolla is perfect. I had visions of building something similar. I made a mistake and bought a TE72 which turned into a mess. Should have bought the generation before it, this one. Best part? No smog, so you can do what you want to do. Would have cost a fortune getting my TE72 smogged and legal with no horsepower. The smog cutoff year between those two generations is everything and is definitely reflected in the price!
Ah, you are right. I keep thinking it's '79 for some reason. Well, if it was a 74-75 TE3x then it would be golden. Maybe that's why he said he kept the stock cat. But it would fail a visual without that stupid little paper dryer tube thingy from the intake snorkel to the header right off the bat. Stupid freakin' smog laws. The bane of my car modifying existence.
Matt Mead Yeah, used to be 25 years or older and then they switched it to 75 or before. Been lots of talk the past few years of moving that year up, but I don't hold my breath. Especially with all the advances that are being made in electric and self driving cars. The time of actual driving being an enthusiastic activity is not too far away. Cool smog guys will let minor visuals go if the numbers pass.
My TE72 sat in my driveway for 3 years while I waited for them to change the smog laws up to 1980 (It was a 1980). Finally got rid of because of how hard it would have been to get it smog legal. I don't think they will ever bump it up. But yeah, driving cars will be like riding horses soon. Just a hobby on the side.
I think if they would just film a bunch of fake stuff with him and get him calm Infront of the cam he would be cool dude does know an insane amount he's just like that ADHD kid who snorted cocain every morning
Hes like dude from the first fast and the furious......its something about cars that calms me down.....just hes the opposite.....hes has automotive bi polar disorder
Nads is such a good guy to have on hoonigan. He just ooozes with information and fishes out the interesting facts from the owners of the cars. The fact he has soooooo much enthusiasm and knowledge rubs off on the younger viewers. Gives them something to respect about the OG's like Scottie and Nads. KEEP NADS ON!
Damm Nad thanks for bring in all the legends. i grew up looking up to these people. I wish Scottie good fortune on his journey to japan and hope he finds success helping others. thank you for your contribution.
I like Nads, don't get some of this comment section, hes a real enthusiast to me. Negativity always speaks louder than the positive. On another note, that SR5 is gorgeous, poster car status. Would have loved to hear it.
Nads is an uber car nerd and he's cool in my book. I felt like he was bragging for Scottie by talking about the awesome things he's done, all while drinking Hoonigan garage beer.
dude is clearly humble as hell, and builds some sweet shit even though it not my thing( the scion) and he is giving it up to be a farmer for some people in need....he is awesome and im not even a little upset there was no action
Y'all are ruthless towards Nads... Leave the man alone he adds another dimension to the videos (real knowledge). Not to say anyone else isn't knowledgeable but Nads on a different level. I appreciate it.
I wish people would give nads a break, the man is very passionate about his job and his love for cars, his knowledge of cars astounds me, he’s also an OG Hoon who’s seen more carnage than we could ever hope for! Keep nads around! #FreeNads
Sweet SR5.. I had one in 1980. I Modified the 2TC with a Weber and headers.. No Cat. Put low profile 14" tires.. I had a CHP officer reminding me on I-580 that the speed limit was only 55.. LOL It was a fun car to drive even in snow around Lake Tahoe
My first car was a 75 SR5....but it looked nothing like this one. The shape is pretty much spot on....but my SR5 was on the far other end of the condition spectrum. Rear floor boards and rocker panels were rusted away and the car would bow in the middle when I hit a bump. The tops of the fenders and the strut towers were rusted away and the struts lean in toward the engine. I worked on those issues for 6 months....cutting and welding angle iron and pipe to form a sub-frame connectors and to get the strut towers back into place and held there. Once done, the car handled like a champ....all the bracing and connecting made the car very rigid and improved the cornering like crazy. A few engine mods were done after the head gasket failed and full engine rebuild was done.
I'm pretty sure the entire "idea" behind NADS being on DT was so that we was that mature gentleman whose always drinking beers but knows EVERYTHING. All the facts, rules, ect. People, I'm pretty sure he's doing exactly what he was asked to do. I think hes interesting. Like an Uncle Eddy for the car world.
Nads is the man. He takes so much youtube hate and still brings the yard great cars through his connection. I'd be honored if Nads knew as much about my car as I do. That would mean that something I created is appreciated by another member of the lovely car community. Nads, bro, what kind of beer do you want. I live local and I'll have some brews with you! And to the beautiful corolla, this is an example of the quality of car that inspires people to build. Once I have my type 3 to the level of admiration, I hope to bring it to the yard and rip a few donnies
Car Lover mk2 because he's one of the people who just don't like someone who knows shit and is actually interested in the build itself. Not hating in the other guys but he shows way more passion in this shit than the other guys besides John.
Holly Crap, Scottie is still alive??? Haven’t seen him since he had his shop in Honolulu? He still owes me a race from the late 80’s in his blue RX7 wassup? Don’t leave the car scene man, it’s only gonna drag you back in hard brudder! Take care man
every time the first beat hits on that instrumental I keep thinking we're getting some Buffalo Springfield - For What Its Worth.. but then it's not... all the best in Japan Mr. Kanemura, wishing for many sunny days on the farm
Trunk vents! The awesome passive ventilation technology from pre-smog years so your cabin would have positive pressure, and bleed it out through the trunk and rear of the car so you wouldn't have to deal with the exhaust in cars that didn't seal very well.
Nads seems like a 'real' enthusiast (whatever that really means) and really knowledgable no doubt, but he also comes across as such a try hard in these videos, it's past the point (and a little different) of just being really enthusiastic about the build - it's like he has something to prove, he doesn't at all! show respect (which he absolutely does) get respect! simple as, should never be about how much you know (even though he is clearly very, very knowledgeable) or having to prove it
Ok so i have been waiting till i was all caught up to comment BUT i just have to say how BEAUTIFUL this Corolla is. I was born and raised in Barbados so i have seen quite a bit of corollas
We want more NADS! It'd be cool to see Nads on a field trip or DTT but I'll keep enjoying his appearances on DT. He brings a unique perspective to the table being JDM passionate and knowledgeable with great questions (not to shame Y2K but he's young and less experienced). I hope Nads doesn't fuck with these lame comment haters, keep him around.
I'm on team Nads, he seems like a great guy to talk to and I would enjoy meeting him at a car show. Plus he really is getting better in videos so I think you guys should chill tf out and give him a solid chance.
Hahaha Nads and the cars owner are like polar opposites lol Nads is in your face like "You want some I'll give it to ya" and owner is like "Eyyyyyyy what it is, chill out bro"
Great cars. Love the STI with the bullet proof built EJ. And Scottie Kanemura's formerly owned 76 Corolla SR-5 I see in the background on some videos.😍
My absolute favorite chassis on the planet. These cars make up for what they lack in power with incredible balance, I've seen a few on auto-x podiums with very minor engine mods(a cam, header, and intake).
With cars like that and the story behind the cars and the owner, I really don't care if there isn't any craziness. Just one of those times where you just have to sit back and admire both the car and the owner.
Yo if nads wants to be on the show tell that fool the show is about the cars and the people behind them fools annoying af never lets someone talk about a build always try’s to get the show to be about him it’s annoying af man I wanna see the owner talk about it not nads
Clearly the dude was nervous af on camera and he wanted to help obv the dude shows passion af and knows these people and enough about there builds to help them express what they have build.. smh get ya negative ass out these comments like the rest of the kids in here
Good luck and hope everything goes well for the OG Scottie Kanemura. Maybe one day we'll see him come back to the state with a plan for some bad ass JDM builds for us to feast our eyes on!
i love those SR5 models. This one is absolutely perfect in style, detail and original preservation.
BMW nd
FINALLY WE SEE DON! Missed that guy
Cameron Gallardo lool don pussies out when the cars do burnouts :(
That Corolla is perfect. I had visions of building something similar. I made a mistake and bought a TE72 which turned into a mess. Should have bought the generation before it, this one. Best part? No smog, so you can do what you want to do. Would have cost a fortune getting my TE72 smogged and legal with no horsepower. The smog cutoff year between those two generations is everything and is definitely reflected in the price!
Come to Florida where there's no smog, unlike Commie-Fornia
It's not pre smog in most California counties, that's 75 and before for gas cars.
Ah, you are right. I keep thinking it's '79 for some reason. Well, if it was a 74-75 TE3x then it would be golden. Maybe that's why he said he kept the stock cat. But it would fail a visual without that stupid little paper dryer tube thingy from the intake snorkel to the header right off the bat. Stupid freakin' smog laws.

I'll buy Nads a beer if he just calm down a little bit.
Skunk Ape He's really cool when he's calm
I think if they would just film a bunch of fake stuff with him and get him calm Infront of the cam he would be cool dude does know an insane amount he's just like that ADHD kid who snorted cocain every morning
Hes like dude from the first fast and the furious......its something about cars that calms me down.....just hes the opposite.....hes has automotive bi polar disorder
+HC DaVe well said
by beer he ment crack
Nads is such a good guy to have on hoonigan. He just ooozes with information and fishes out the interesting facts from the owners of the cars. The fact he has soooooo much enthusiasm and knowledge rubs off on the younger viewers. Gives them something to respect about the OG's like Scottie and Nads. KEEP NADS ON!
That Scion is a trip and a half, and don't even get me started on that bomb ass Corolla. Another awesome video, boys.
I’m actually blown away with that scion, and that’s something I thought I’d never say
yo guys give nads some respect man he's a cool guy and a knowledgeable man
Damm Nad thanks for bring in all the legends. i grew up looking up to these people. I wish Scottie good fortune on his journey to japan and hope he finds success helping others. thank you for your contribution.
I like Nads, don't get some of this comment section, hes a real enthusiast to me.

On another note, that SR5 is gorgeous, poster car status. Would have loved to hear it.
he is a good guy, he just needs to stop telling the guests story for them. thats my only complaint
Nads is an uber car nerd and he's cool in my book. I felt like he was bragging for Scottie by talking about the awesome things he's done, all while drinking Hoonigan garage beer.
That mix over the build break downs were definitely Brandon’s choosing
dude is clearly humble as hell, and builds some sweet shit even though it not my thing( the scion) and he is giving it up to be a farmer for some people in need....he is awesome and im not even a little upset there was no action
i did like the pop up "wallet" holder
Not sure how I just saw this but that man is an absolute legend. Seriously idolize and look up to people like him
Wow, this guy is awesome, and I like Nads interviews on Japanese brands/tuners. Love Japan!
You know a car's nice when these guys are putting their hands in their pockets to avoid accidentally touching it. Awesome episode.
I see Toyota I click
Same.
Let's be honest, we see Hoonigan, we click.
I was about to like this but then saw it was at 86 likes and decided not to...then some prick goes and likes it as I'm typing this..... .....
i see a mint '70 rolla. Struggles to not lose my shit
I see jdm Car i click
You know what,Nads is really a good interviewer. Prompts Scotty nicely and drops some great knowledge. ✌
Good morning 3:AM east coast crew...
Y'all are ruthless towards Nads... Leave the man alone he adds another dimension to the videos (real knowledge). Not to say anyone else isn't knowledgeable but Nads on a different level. I appreciate it.
Back when corolla's actually looked ace
I wish people would give nads a break, the man is very passionate about his job and his love for cars, his knowledge of cars astounds me, he’s also an OG Hoon who’s seen more carnage than we could ever hope for! Keep nads around! #FreeNads
The master of 6 minute videos
Sweet SR5.. I had one in 1980. I Modified the 2TC with a Weber and headers.. No Cat. Put low profile 14" tires.. I had a CHP officer reminding me on I-580 that the speed limit was only 55.. LOL It was a fun car to drive even in snow around Lake Tahoe
that guy is so dam cool! selling everything to move to a farm to help less fortunate! need more people like him
Both of my brothers built 70's Corollas. I remember the wink mirrors, baby turbo mirrors, suspension and the gold rims. Good stuff.
Nads strikes me as a guy who meets someone for 30 seconds, and then tells everyone they are close personal friends
Danon Morey 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
No

Nads always brings funky people with funky builds on the daily.He's cool in my book.
Currently watching this in class...way better than education.
Hert 420 confirmed 😂
most reassuring part of the whole video lol
Abroham Lincoln when?
THX for pointing it out.
Had the opportunity to see the SR5 at Toyotafest truly is a sweet ride. Tastefully done!
I'm pretty sure the entire "idea" behind NADS being on DT was so that we was that mature gentleman whose always drinking beers but knows EVERYTHING. All the facts, rules, ect. People, I'm pretty sure he's doing exactly what he was asked to do. I think hes interesting. Like an Uncle Eddy for the car world.
That sr5 just blew my mind what an epic machine thank you very much for sharing this beauty!!
Nads is the kind of guy who knows everyone but no one knows who the hell he is.
Who is Nads?
@@JoroJugga You don't know him but he knows you.
I really like the chill atmosphere of this video
Finish the Miata!
Nads is the man. He takes so much youtube hate and still brings the yard great cars through his connection. I'd be honored if Nads knew as much about my car as I do.

Bsteg Media straight up 70s shaggy carpet
Shagg , how dare u sir
even possessed people deserve a comfy floor.

Jbwifi thanks for giving me a 'tard laugh
Much respect to Mr. Kanemura for taking action on his farm dream. Wish you the best of luck sir.
update us on the UTE
David Hall it's a paper weight. The end
Think they said that they will finish the death kart first
MooseAF
They went full SEMAcar
This dude is super AWESOME, I watched this to the end and it’s so awesome that he is going to open a business to help other folks out.
I’m ok with nads going to japan ;)
TMVinyl i want to go with him
Car Lover mk2 would have to ditch him though
TMVinyl why? Nads is cool
Car Lover mk2 because he's one of the people who just don't like someone who knows shit and is actually interested in the build itself. Not hating in the other guys but he shows way more passion in this shit than the other guys besides John.
noteeth Inc. Nads is a good guy dont hate on him. That is why he hates people that know stuff
Holly Crap, Scottie is still alive??? Haven’t seen him since he had his shop in Honolulu? He still owes me a race from the late 80’s in his blue RX7 wassup? Don’t leave the car scene man, it’s only gonna drag you back in hard brudder! Take care man
That's attention to detail ! Dope builds
every time the first beat hits on that instrumental I keep thinking we're getting some Buffalo Springfield - For What Its Worth.. but then it's not... all the best in Japan Mr. Kanemura, wishing for many sunny days on the farm
You need to start to put a mic on your guests
YES. I usually watch these at work and have to adjust the volume a bunch to hear what's going on
Or a directional external mic at the very least
Nads you are the man! Love JDM segments!
Nad has automotive bi polar disorder
Due to alcoholism?
due to people judging all the time ....
Trunk vents!
The awesome passive ventilation technology from pre-smog years so your cabin would have positive pressure, and bleed it out through the trunk and rear of the car so you wouldn't have to deal with the exhaust in cars that didn't seal very well.
Lovin this new no scumbaggery DTs
Lmao what??? Said no one ever!!!!
Scottie is a great guy for giving others a chance.
I want a sticker. Hope Hert doesn’t break anything.
Nads seems like a 'real' enthusiast (whatever that really means) and really knowledgable no doubt, but he also comes across as such a try hard in these videos, it's past the point (and a little different) of just being really enthusiastic about the build - it's like he has something to prove, he doesn't at all! show respect (which he absolutely does) get respect! simple as, should never be about how much you know (even though he is clearly very, very knowledgeable) or having to prove it
I wish someone loved me as much as nads loves cars
Ok so i have been waiting till i was all caught up to comment BUT i just have to say how BEAUTIFUL this Corolla is. I was born and raised in Barbados so i have seen quite a bit of corollas
Nads the person on the forums who makes the huge sticky posts with all the information you need.
Dudes answer for everythin was tha most relaxed chilled "yeahh"
Nads, keep that beard growing!
Suits you so much more
Why does everyone dislike nads, he's got great car knowledge and an interesting personality, I like the guy.
Talk shit on nadds all you want you can't deny dude knows about that jdm scene.
Knows and Loves. Which I can get down with.
I Am Sekou fuck you mean so I just gave a valid reason why he's part of the team you're just the fuck sayin "so?" Get yo simple ass outa here ✌
We want more NADS! It'd be cool to see Nads on a field trip or DTT but I'll keep enjoying his appearances on DT. He brings a unique perspective to the table being JDM passionate and knowledgeable with great questions (not to shame Y2K but he's young and less experienced). I hope Nads doesn't fuck with these lame comment haters, keep him around.
The way nads moves his hands makes me think he's on the spectrum
etienne4477 And?

Nads always has a beer lol
great guy starting a farm, yet can resto such cool cars. Thank you, Sir.
420 joke at 4:20.. editors on point.
I keep coming back to this SR5.damn it
I WANNA SEE A DAY IN THE LIFE OF DON
I'm on team Nads, he seems like a great guy to talk to and I would enjoy meeting him at a car show. Plus he really is getting better in videos so I think you guys should chill tf out and give him a solid chance.
Spicy
Love the car dont care about anything else u guys rock my SALUTE from Florida keep it moving brother AWSOME.
Waaaiiiit Y2K calling out the viewers for being "like 12".... the irony.
berzerkrobot take a look in the comments fool!!! they are 12
These 76 corolla are becoming my new addiction
#cometosummernats2019
Scott is the man!!! Nice to see a couple of photos I took of the Hilux.
I've been watching a 12yr old show this whole time?!
2 years old you mean?
I appreciate Nads on this show, when else do you see someone so stoked about Hondas. He helps to mix it up, no need to hate
Hahaha Nads and the cars owner are like polar opposites lol Nads is in your face like "You want some I'll give it to ya" and owner is like "Eyyyyyyy what it is, chill out bro"
Great cars. Love the STI with the bullet proof built EJ. And Scottie Kanemura's formerly owned 76 Corolla SR-5 I see in the background on some videos.😍
Why is this man always drinking?
Tanner Czaicki I feel like he thinks it will make us like him
He's your real dad
Why not?
He likes beer
old, kept and restored cars are naturally more appealing than new ones
“Looks like a lego” 😂😂😂
My absolute favorite chassis on the planet. These cars make up for what they lack in power with incredible balance, I've seen a few on auto-x podiums with very minor engine mods(a cam, header, and intake).
WTF is this, someone get poor Nads a real beer! Nobody gets rowdy off Corona Lights and cider.
Wink mirror for the win! I love those mirrors and this car is sick!
Damn, they sure hate you @nadsynads guess I am old..
Mad props those builds are high end love the sr5 , I’m celica fan myself
can you put the guy in the blue shirt back to his desk, thanks.
Woooooow, so much detail put into that Scion man
Dude, i need that stash spot! I’m tired of the cops pullin me over and saying they can smell my “wallet”! #$420 lol
Gosh that Toyota..... just the details on it makes it an amazing ❤
Nads needs to go to the AA meetings
2 1/2 years later and I finally found one. Picking it up tomorrow!
Im not 12 >:(
Im 11
yeah ım 10
With cars like that and the story behind the cars and the owner, I really don't care if there isn't any craziness. Just one of those times where you just have to sit back and admire both the car and the owner.
Yo if nads wants to be on the show tell that fool the show is about the cars and the people behind them fools annoying af never lets someone talk about a build always try’s to get the show to be about him it’s annoying af man I wanna see the owner talk about it not nads
yo lowkey shut the fuck up with your dumbass, non grammar having nonsense lol. Go back to school g.
Clearly the dude was nervous af on camera and he wanted to help obv the dude shows passion af and knows these people and enough about there builds to help them express what they have build.. smh get ya negative ass out these comments like the rest of the kids in here
I'll take excessive positivity over whatever negative bullshit you just spewed. #LayOffNads
You never can go wrong with Corolla , one of the best ever Japanese make.
Anyone else get annoyed with the dude who always has a beer in his hand and won’t stfu
Nads has all the OG import connections in CA. Keep his guests coming!
