That red motor was a Toyota 3S-GE Beams available in the 97-99 Rav4 J 4WD Aero Sports and G limited 4WD (180hp, 7000rpm redline). The 1997-1999 MR2 SW20 G limited (200hp, 7100rpm redline). The 97-98 Celica ST202 SS-II and SS-III (200hp, 7100rpm) and the Caldina Active GT sport (190hp, 7000rpm)
As a kid, I would go with my dad to the junk / salvage yards, better than any proper playground EVER! He would get so angry at me cuz when it was time to go … he couldn’t find me 😂😂😂
That first lot reminded me a lot of the Virginia Auto Mall. Lol. But seriously (But I was serious), you took the thought right out of my head for the WBTF Nippon Garage, but my thought was for you to parts out cars, send them to David for the Mandy JDM Parts Warehouse!
I wish they could get some of these cars up and running again, so they can be imported over here to the States and sell them to JDM/kei vehicle dealerships, like Virginia Auto Mall and others.
That silver truck was first registered in September 2023 (令和 5年 9月). This year is Reiwa 6. Also, I think the car you mentioned as a Mini Cooper is actually a Daihatsu.😅
Ideally someone should operate one and buy some Jdm junker to help serve the US and Canadian drivers who are buying them. Especially the people who buy the jdm vans in droves for Canada.
Great video, I can't believe how nice some of the cars in the junk yard are! Do you have to wait 3-4 months to get your cars shipped to New York? I was looking at cars from Japan website and it says it takes 3-4 months for shipping.
I don't think they care about kei trucks like that, kei cars and vans on the other hand ive seen done up nicely. very rare to see a cool kei truck on the road
I'm with you on spiders , my Maltese also hates them she can spend ours looking round the house for them, UK is horrendous for them getting in through the summer, thank god we don't have poisonous spiders here but saying Japan doesn't so you were probably bitten by something else. UK & Japan are 2 of the country's in the world that don't have them.
Brown metallic car you walked past Nick when you mentioned newer cars was an 2011 or newer Citroen C3 which basically my DS3 is a posher 2 door version with an N14 BMW cooper S engine that has the prince also BMW engine from the R50 Cooper. The car you walked past saying was a Mini cooper was a new Kei Nissan ' sorry '. If Japan is anything like the UK to differentiate on paperwork logbook etc the year of a car. If it's got 5 as the 1st number it means halfway through the year & 9 been year up until 2010 after 2010 for half way through the year becomes 6 so 9 after would mean 19 , if it's just 19 it's first half of 2019. From 2020 a car starts with a 2 or a 7 . From 2030 they will start a 3 or an 8 easy once you understand . Before 01 . It was A to Y then Y back to A.

Most assuredly NOT a Mini
That junk yard is like a Candy store to a kid‼️
YOU AND DAVE BUY THE HONDA VAMOS JOINTLY!!!!!!!! 💜💜
Need a turbo one
Man those spiders are no joke, i would love to go to a japanese junkyard but i am such an arachnaphobe lol.
That spider bite is scary maybe that’s why they should clean it before import ?
yeah its a big part of it
Man so freakin cool! I would be like a kid in a candy store.

I get them in 40-60 days, cars from Japan is the worse place to buy a car
I love the black Pajero with a diesel engine
David maybe going to buy it
Hey if you see a good tailgate for a 92 Daihatsu Hijet s83p I need one in New Hampshire. Just stick it in your carry-on luggage. Ha ha!
LOL
That's both interesting and saddening at the same time.
Where is this place? I want to go.
What was the story with the white Silvia?!
It’s more to life than tri spokes
Says who?????
Wow what a sweet business.
Are K trucks considered cool in Japan or are they just considered practical functional vehicles?
I don't think they care about kei trucks like that, kei cars and vans on the other hand ive seen done up nicely. very rare to see a cool kei truck on the road
Parts galore!
Aw man not the hilux surfs, my dream daily right now.
like the junk yard thanks
Guys where do you get your prices from you have just said you pay $6000 plus for 25year old pickups really they cost nothing at auction .
auction price isnt relevant, shipping + fees + tags and title is about 6k for a nice kei truck
for some reason i got no sound.
