Is it Better in Hawaii? JDM Overload With Friends in Oahu

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 มิ.ย. 2022
- I've been to Hawaii a few times but every single time I go, I seem to be bombarded with some of my favorite cars, specifically those originating from Japan. Grab your popcorn because this is a long one. Sorry if this is taking you away from your homework. Use this video as an excuse when you get your test back with an F.

It feels like this is in the Philippines for some reason.
Whoa, we didn’t ask you that.
@@fogtown3027 whoa, it’s the COMMENT section dummy
Car culture is so underated in Hawaii. You got guys that build cars they got handed down from their family members. Its pretty crazy! Sick video and thanks for showing the car culture there!
I remember that Hoonigan episode.
That tuckable lip 🤌 JDM perfection
I have mad respect for Hawaiian core culture. It’s so expensive to modify and I know that they are strict with which modifications you can do. And everything has to be shipped to you… a pain in the ass! But these cars were all amazing 🤘🔥 these guys need a track
We need a track. It’s only the streets
$hipping is ridiculous... but when you love building cars, you buy it anyways. i see "Free Shipping" promotions, but i know im paying shipping to hawaii.
@kentbeitel9966 there are no emissions restrictions in Hawaii, (unlike California), so in that respect it's a bit easier. Yes, its more expensive to buy almost anything in Hawaii due to shipping costs, but the real challenge to having a heavily modded car is finding competent mechanics if you're not trained to do the work yourself. In the 10+ years I lived there, I only found 1 shop on the entire island of Oahu that was confident enough in their skills to replace the subframe bushings in my 350z...I sunk about $3k into a different shop to replace my clutch, install tein basic coilovers/transmission mounts, and fix my slave cylinder, but even after taking my money and holding onto my z for an entire month, they weren't honest or competent enough to actually fix my slave cylinder even though I paid them quite a bit of cash. Keep in mind, i brought all my own parts to the shop, so 3k just for labor to me was quite expensive. I'm not sure I would trust any of the shops out there whatsoever to install forced induction kits let alone replace more basic items like concentric slave cylinders. Bottom line, if you live in Hawaii and want to own and enjoy a heavily modded car, be prepared to do all the wrenching yourself🤙
That lifted Land Cruiser at 12:06 OMFG!!! 😳🙄🤤🤤🤤
Mahalo for checking out Hawaii car scene Larry.! 🤙🏽
That Corolla turbo is dope. That kid rocks.
Love the show. Been here since day one (Autofocus) and don't miss an episode.
Was great seeing you Larry and talking with you. Was also great seeing Hansel and watching him drench the pork hash in the hot mustard sauce 🤣🤣🤣
Hawaii has some of the raddest car culture and coolest people, keep blowing it up! More island content!
He needs to go to Jamaica next
The TE27 Mango with the F20 swap at the very end deserves its own video! Such a sleeper!
I love how Tommy kept showing up giving his cameo throughout the video 😄🤙🏽🤙🏽
Living in Hi my whole life .. unfortunately not on Oahu ( where you are sure to find parts you need thru your network of friends) so just modding cars costs a shit ton more due to shipping. Oahu got the goods but the best roads ( with corners) are on the other islands. Def good to see my gen of peeps still going strong tho.
K1 maui is such a sick place to drive !
Longer videos are cool. Even on vacation Larry brings better content than most. Thanks for taking us along to the show.
I miss Hawaii, I live in Oklahoma, right now, but hopefully someday I can come back home to live.
Tommy popping out in all the shots is the best
That orange/red Corolla with the fender mirrors and white lettered tires is fire!🔥 I've wanted one of those since I saw one, as a kid. I'd fender flare it just like that one. I need to know more details on this Corolla! 10:18
Who remembers when the drift scene in Hawaii was THE main drift scene in the US? Back when Drifter X, Signal Auto, Endless Waltz, and Drift Session were still a thing. Good times.
Drift Session was first US drift event before anything on the mainland. Sadly the track closed and many drivers lost opportunities to progress in the new motorsport.
@@kenS87 For sure. The track wasn't very well maintained, but at least it was something. Too bad :/
You should plan a trip to the Philippines and check out the car culture over there. Buzzhype and Manila street chronicles has amazing videos on youtube if you want to know what's up with the car scene over there at ph.
Thats my boy Martin!
I really miss seeing drift events as a grom over in Kapolei. Bring the track back.
that corolla in the intro absolutely fucks
Chill Hawaiian Vibes 🌺
As I've said before .."LARRY CHEN IS EVERYWHERE !"
One hour retro JDM from the island. Thanks buddy, its Satty! 💥
I LOVED THE MARK 3 SUPRA!!! That’s the ones I grew up as a kid and a teen seeing! I wish we saw more of them! They’re as Awesome as a 4 or 5 just in its own way! Just like the RX7 FC compared to the FD! More square bodied flip up lights just a unique look!!! But the Blue Civic and the Black 180SX were both Beautiful Cars and I love those too!!!
Thanks for watching guys, If you want to support what we do here make sure you pick up some art for your walls: larrychenprints.com/

Back yard drifting in Hawai’i is one of the most fascinating topics! I love to here all the stories !

I like how he ignores how huge the Toyota and Lexus culture is.
Toyota has much more models and cooler models then Honda and Nissan.
as a local Hawaii’s car culture has always been boring to me . idk i’m just too used to seeing it 24/7 , taken a trip to Germany and haven’t missed the islands unless it’s the food lol .
IDK, but the communication skills are ZERO..
Buy a one way ticket to Hawaii and go homeless.
Please don’t
It was great meeting you!! I look very awkward in my interview 🫠
You did . But you weren't prepared , and Star Struck! " It happens "
Sick Ek
