The reason for the cut out is that Japanese rear plates must be bolted to a non removable part of the car, then have a seal placed on one of the bolts. That applies to all white number plate passenger cars……reason seem to be so that people can’t swap or steal plates, road tolls and taxes here are horrendous.
Yep this is 100% right it was done to prevent swapping plates I don’t remember when they started it I I remember hearing about it because of how hard it was to be able to do bodywork because it’s a huge deal if the plate has been removed to get it put back on the same car
The remote control was the thing back in the 90s. I had one for my Alpine/JP stereo system. Instead of leaning forward to hit the button, you had a remote typically left in the cup holder that can do everything the buttons did on the unit. Kinda of a safety feature when you didn't want to take your eyes off the road. The remote I had consisted of six buttons. Disc change, skip forward and reverse, volume, and a power off.
It's amazing what people do to nice cars. I once saw a Renault alpine gta with the worst graphics ever and front and rear fogs cut into the bumpers. Who knows what the owner was thinking.
@@philtowle4683 He probably had eight or nine aftermarket light-up gauges that ruined his night vision, so he needed extra exterior lighting to compensate.
Am I the only one that was very nervous when Freddy had his head inside the back hatch with that super sketchy prop? Especially when he talked about how heavy it was?
I was honestly hoping for the hatch to fall and we got a cartoon style shot of Freddie smashed in it, with his legs sticking straight out the back. No wish to see Freddie hurt, but he could have staged it, and gotten a good laugh out of me.
FYI the "easy pass" machine located on the side is a highway toll payment system (called an ETC). In Japan highways aren't free, so you insert your highway card into the slot and it automatically pays without you having to stop to pay manually. The Japanese lady's voice when you turned on the car is telling you the card isn't inserted.
You got a steal my friend. What I'd give to have a Supra. I fell in love with car, as everyone else probably did watching FnF. Good luck on the build broski, definitely gonna keep and eye out for more content on this.
@@davidhateley9037 yes I own a special edition 93.5 and ppl always laugh when I tell them the year. Whats your point. Your completely wrong anyway I never seen cloth seat so they are rare in America. You don't even know what year it started. Your welcome
@dduffy8245 my comment was specifically about JDM Supra's for which you clearly no little about. 99% of JDM Supra's got cloth front seats with leather only being available on the GZ. They started in 1993. 1993.5 isn't a year. Technically you could argue that they are 1992 given there are genuine pre-production models that did find their way out of Japan but 1993 is generally accepted. Sorry if you think I know nothing about these cars. I've only owned them for 20 years.
I’m hesitant to be as excited as I should be for this project bc this is such a huge dream car build and I’m not sure we will ever see it cross the finished line.
Well I posted before the end of the video and he already said it’s going away so 🤷. Maybe, just maybe, it will be going to Georgia and Jarod will actually make it what we hope to see.
You’re hesitant for good reason. This channel is sooooo boring now. He literally can't be bothered to even try to make it better. He should give it to a channel that needs the growth and will actually do something with it.
I’ve had a couple modified 4x4’s. The remote is nice when driving off road or on bumpy roads because the radio is bouncing and bucking around when you’re trying to change the thing…. It beats having to stop or slow down. I doubt that’s what the engineers intended it for, but works nice.
It's useful when ya got an obnoxious sound system and controlling it from outside the car. I've seen some ppl glue the remote to the steering wheel 🤷♂️
Valvoline fully synthetic gear oil with limited slip additive included is one of my favorites at a great price, as is Valvoline full synthetic High Mileage oil with 'MaxLife Technology'. The MaxLife quiets down my three noisy lifters completely and makes the engine smoother on the highway, like a toughened, slippery barrier is jammed between all metal to metal points. (It did make the engine a bit harder to start I must warn)
The reason behind the remote is for passengers to control without having to reach across the center console ‘for safety reasons’. Volvo used to do this with Built in Nav back in the early-mid 2k
@14:25 this is hilarious!!! My imported supra had the same Panasonic navigation startup! I'm absolutely excited to see how this pans out. I'm located in Tampa if you ever need to compare this to a clean JDM imported supra!
Around 10:25. Remotes for stereo head units are usually for sound competitions. At a certain decibel level you’re no longer allowed to stay in the car during the “run”
Mileage is one thing in Japan, but a significant concern is engine run time. Because there is a lot of traffic and you can spend hours just slowly moving through traffic. So some cars that don't seem to have that many miles on them, have double the engine run time the mileage would suggest.
The reason is that Japanese rear reg plates are permanently attached to the car via a tamper-proof seal on one of the bolts. Most JDM cars have the plate mounted to the bumper....
Oh the joy of a new project. I can't imagine the taste of consternation mixed with anticipation but Im sure its needs a stiff chaser. Good luck. Will watch every episode!

The rear wing blade is kevlar and would have been expensive when new, its likely original Veilside. The brand new steering wheel/cheap gauges and N/A engine/screwed clutch would have been because all the fancy parts were removed before it was sold. Switch is for the rear fog light.
you sound awfully confident, could be true. in my opinion this is a case of ricing out an unfavorable spec supra to "make up" for the lack of a 2jz-gte
@@anthroism26mc I was very involved in the UK JDM scene in from 2000 to 2010ish. Was very common to see cars get all the nice parts taken off them before they left Japan, easy enough to check the VIN. Its why there is a boost gauge and EGT, parts missing from the engine bay. Another weird thing is the facelift lights on a non-facelift model.
veilside, bomex and abflug are some of my favorite kit companies, they exaggerate the original style of the car and make it aggressive but with some finesse to it
I have those same wheels in my garage, Stillen AVS wheels, theyre quite light weight so I used them as my auto cross wheels for a 300zx tt I had years back. Still has good Kumho MXs on them, but no one wants them. Super duper cheap too, $500CAN is a steal for expired awesome rubber and oldschool name brand wheels. I used to change my wheels at 5am before autocross every week, and change them back to Monza Autostradas with Falken 512s on them, after the day of autocross.
10:29 When your car's audio system is loud enough and high quality, you need a remote to be able to play music from outside your car like at a carmeet or a car audio competition (they are real things) without hurting your ears by being in the car.
This would have been perfect for a future Car Trek! "The worst you can buy" When he said it was going to a "special Home" I thought maybe sold to Hoovie. "I bought the cheapest Supra in the U.S!"
I can not understand how on earth how this cars pass the Japanese version of MOT/inspections - in Japan you can fail an inspection just by having none shiny paint work
This car needs a complete rebuild, but if the bones are good it's worth it, I think you should make it a channel project car and convert it to a left hand steering car. It's doesn't need to have a bunch of horse power in the end, but it would be really interesting to see a left hand drive conversion.
@@dclarke8872 Converting it would double the car's base value and I'm sure there are a lot of people thinking about buying cars from Japan or England, but not wanting to have the steering wheel on the wrong side of the car and are thinking about what it would take to put it on the correct side.
@@StorKejsaren on the opposite, it would drop its value and probably be illegal. JDM cars don't have VIN numbers, what are you gonna do about it? I wouldn't want a butchered car with God knows how many corners cut during such conversion.
@@yuris6125 It's not illegal if it passes MOT, at least not in Europe, where LHD JDM cars always fetch at least twice the price of a RHD. In some countries you're not even allowed to drive RHD cars in traffic so not converting it would be illegal 😅
Remotes for decks were used for rear passengers, when you're outside the car but playing music and want control, for front passenger if interior is cockpit style (angled away from them).
side note for anyone interested, I had a 2JZ VVTI that was a JDM motor. Car would take forever to start (like Tavarish) and after a few minutes of priming, it would start. Ended up being an issue with the twins, switch to a single and BOOM started right up.
ill be honest. ive bought worse cars and been over the moon. Most of the bad bits are removable. fact is. its a Supra, rough or not, its worth atleast 20k even in that state right now.
The remote control is if you want a passenger or someone in the rear to DJ or if you're parked and listening to music outside the car you can change the radio controls from outside the vehicle
passenger side air bags didn't become required till 98. As for the remote for the radio. its was common on flip out radios of the day. They didn't have steering wheel controls, or touch screens yet. at its was the early 2000s.
Well at least the starter works well. It's always fun to see you get involved with terrible cars. It makes the rest of us feel like we've made much better choices in buying the vehicles that we did.
One trick, to get used to JDM wiper/indicator arrangement is to put your left hand on the gearstick while engaging the blinkers. Thus you need to use your right hand for that.
I have been watching you for years and really enjoy your videos but lately your videos have been a lot of talking and chatting about things way to much about nonsense and not a lot of building it better it’s a shame because your builds are great to watch please don’t take this as bad I think it’s time to build some thing ☺️
I worked for a Japanese company and I was always told that the Japanese companies were all cutting edge technology. The company I worked for didn't even allow computers onsite until like 2000. I had to do a lot of Health and Safety reports to OSHA and the last reports were typed on an IBM Selectric. (That is a typewriter)! They were not high tech at all.
Wasn't just a plain-vanilla typewriter. Big, hulking electric that used a rotating ball for typing instead of a row pf individual letters. Super advanced...... for 1965.
My Japanese (RHD) Imported (to Australia) Black 1993 (Series 1) MKIV Supra had an insert in the rear bumper covering some of that hole (not all of it though). The horizontal fins in the insert sat either side of the license plate when fitted. I would think that your 94 would also be series 1 as well. Mine was also 5 speed manual (SZ not the Twin Turbo RZ) with the cloth front seats, leather rear seats, no airbags (Tri spoke steering wheel and double glovebox) and a factory LSD (Rare I was told). It also had orange side indicators that I changed to clear (like yours). I removed the ashtray in the centre console and used that hole as my cup holder (Yes they're essential). I had it for 6 or 7 years before I was T-Boned in it. Unfortunately it never drove the same after the repairs so I sold it. I'd love another one but they're way too expensive now. I look forward to seeing how you go with yours. Brings back so many memories. Good luck! :)
Jeez, for free? I wouldn't care what condition a Supra was in if it was for free x_x I've dreamt of owning that car even before Fast and Furious made it popular. 23+ years now
Ever tried to operate your radio on a bumpy road? That's where your remote comes in handy. And a remote is easier to operate without looking away from the road.
Best use I found for a remote control on stereo head is in a lifted truck, or a slammed car. When the vehicle is bouncing all over, it is hard to push small fine buttons on the dash.
here in ireland anything jdm is atleast 10k and anything that is the factory race version of that car like an evo, wrx, gtr, gt4 is like 50k minimum that supra would sell her for like 50k aslong as it starts.
At 14:28 timestamp, that's the ETC (Electronic Toll Card) device saying "there's no card to be found in the device" in Japanese. It's better to keep that way for the car's aesthetic.
The remotes for radios are for when ur at car meet and ur a bit from ur vehicle and wanna turn your music up alot of guys would keep em in thier shirt pockets look cool flippin it out amd turnin up or changing ur radio
Radio remotes were a great tool for audio competitors in the 90s still are today but alot of folks now just extend their radios on long pigtails to outside the car cuz the levels of vibrations today's comp systems put off can mess with radios. Prs80s by pioneer are notorious for not liking bass levels in the 155dbs or highers at about 30 to 32hz or lower unless on an "enteral headunit" set up.
That gadget you put the card in is for ETC (electronic toll collection) for highway toll gates. The one voice in Japanese said you don't have an ETC card in the machine.
The reason the radio has a remote is for when ur outside of the car and playing music and want to skip a song or turn the volume up or down. For example if u and the boys r playing some ball and want some music while ur playing.
In Japan there is special tamperproof heard where that hold the licence plates off and when the plate is mounted to the body in the rear there is generally a 10mm bolt that you undoubtedly flip the plate up and slide the bumper off over it
I love those whote advan wheels, i had them on my r32gtr, you buy how u ised to build them before Jared showed you the error of your ways. Now get it rebuilt forged & boosted to a happy 550bhp and let a fan buy it
The card slot nearby the pedals is for the ETC card. it allow to access the paid highway without need to stop for a ticket (yes I know, american people often miss that in many country you need to pay the highway). So, you sign a contract, get a ETC card, slot in, and then you can properly roam for the tokyo highway. Edit: the "female robot" told you that there is no card slotted in.
3:29 how does an NA 2jzge only make 125 hp like yeah there's powerloss over time and the engine in this was pretty roughed up but you said it was as much in your cleaner white supra, these make around 230hp from the factory right?
That last shot at the end... I felt that haha

The brand new steering wheel/cheap gauges and N/A engine/screwed clutch would have been because all the fancy parts were removed before it was sold.
Switch is for the rear fog light.
you sound awfully confident, could be true. in my opinion this is a case of ricing out an unfavorable spec supra to "make up" for the lack of a 2jz-gte

I was very involved in the UK JDM scene in from 2000 to 2010ish.
Was very common to see cars get all the nice parts taken off them before they left Japan, easy enough to check the VIN.
Its why there is a boost gauge and EGT, parts missing from the engine bay.
Another weird thing is the facelift lights on a non-facelift model.
I was thinking the same thing, Its pretty common for JDM.
I'm still waiting for the day that Esprit finally gets shown off. I want to see it on more than just the stand!
You should definitely keep the rear wing. Early 2000s vibes😂😂
Honestly it doesnt look bad on the supra
veilside, bomex and abflug are some of my favorite kit companies, they exaggerate the original style of the car and make it aggressive but with some finesse to it
Crazy how now were in the mid early 2000s😂😂
I have those same wheels in my garage, Stillen AVS wheels, theyre quite light weight so I used them as my auto cross wheels for a 300zx tt I had years back. Still has good Kumho MXs on them, but no one wants them. Super duper cheap too, $500CAN is a steal for expired awesome rubber and oldschool name brand wheels.
I used to change my wheels at 5am before autocross every week, and change them back to Monza Autostradas with Falken 512s on them, after the day of autocross.
10:22 is so true. The remote for my touch screen stereo has been in the glovebox since day 1
Looking forward to seeing the color and the build!
The car is almost complete in his previous videos
Check the repair price list you can see it on a lift
There is no bad FREE Supras brother. Good luck with the project
It's a little (really) rough, but you can't not like a supra, especially a mk4. Really looking forward to seeing the build and the finished product.
I can
@@LookOutside... 😮how, it's not possible
mk5 beyter
I totally forgot about this build until it showed up in SEMA and other TH-camrs channels.
I really hope Jared gets this car.

When your car's audio system is loud enough and high quality, you need a remote to be able to play music from outside your car like at a carmeet or a car audio competition (they are real things) without hurting your ears by being in the car.
This would have been perfect for a future Car Trek! "The worst you can buy" When he said it was going to a "special Home" I thought maybe sold to Hoovie. "I bought the cheapest Supra in the U.S!"
The Leather rear seats are oem and only the s2 supras had the cloth rear seats.
I can not understand how on earth how this cars pass the Japanese version of MOT/inspections - in Japan you can fail an inspection just by having none shiny paint work
I think this was being auctioned off because it wasn't able to be registered in its current form.
Remote control is used for outside of the car
Outside with your buds drinking beer with the speakers on
Control the radio from outside
Or backseat can
Those grey sections off the front bumper look like the ones off of a second generation swift sport.
This car needs a complete rebuild, but if the bones are good it's worth it, I think you should make it a channel project car and convert it to a left hand steering car. It's doesn't need to have a bunch of horse power in the end, but it would be really interesting to see a left hand drive conversion.
To each his own but why? RHD is what makes this build over the top. Making it LHD would make it just another Supra
It *is* just another Supra, only with the steering on the worst side for LHD/RHT roads. A conversion would be a huge improvement.
@@dclarke8872 Converting it would double the car's base value and I'm sure there are a lot of people thinking about buying cars from Japan or England, but not wanting to have the steering wheel on the wrong side of the car and are thinking about what it would take to put it on the correct side.
@@StorKejsaren on the opposite, it would drop its value and probably be illegal. JDM cars don't have VIN numbers, what are you gonna do about it? I wouldn't want a butchered car with God knows how many corners cut during such conversion.
@@yuris6125 It's not illegal if it passes MOT, at least not in Europe, where LHD JDM cars always fetch at least twice the price of a RHD. In some countries you're not even allowed to drive RHD cars in traffic so not converting it would be illegal 😅

Look, considering there are more than likely NOT "running-and-driving" AT ALL MkIVs asking $20k out there, this isn't bad.
That was a few years ago. Now the car in the video would bring over 40 as it is.
Remotes for decks were used for rear passengers, when you're outside the car but playing music and want control, for front passenger if interior is cockpit style (angled away from them).
side note for anyone interested, I had a 2JZ VVTI that was a JDM motor. Car would take forever to start (like Tavarish) and after a few minutes of priming, it would start. Ended up being an issue with the twins, switch to a single and BOOM started right up.
ill be honest. ive bought worse cars and been over the moon. Most of the bad bits are removable. fact is. its a Supra, rough or not, its worth atleast 20k even in that state right now.
That's exactly what I was about to say. Someone would have paid 20K and been happy about it.
you could prob get 40-50k easily for that supra
@@charlesrozell848 that body kit isn't even manufactured any more its worth WAY MORE
@@mentegrity101 There's a reason that body kit isn't manufactured any more.
@@xtnuser5338 that is?
I remember at one point, this guy said the white Supra is going to go to one of the viewers....
Will this one be the same? We shall see 👀
Let's remember his excuse "too dangerous to drive" 🤣 Let's hope this one won't be lol
The quick release bumper is instant added lightness. The Esprit(s) would approve.
The remote control is if you want a passenger or someone in the rear to DJ or if you're parked and listening to music outside the car you can change the radio controls from outside the vehicle
passenger side air bags didn't become required till 98. As for the remote for the radio. its was common on flip out radios of the day. They didn't have steering wheel controls, or touch screens yet. at its was the early 2000s.
Well at least the starter works well. It's always fun to see you get involved with terrible cars. It makes the rest of us feel like we've made much better choices in buying the vehicles that we did.
The og owner out here just watching you roast their old car lol
Once it’s a Supra it’s a HUGE win especially for free 😩
Jimmy Broadbent must be wishing his supra was as scuffed as this one
One trick, to get used to JDM wiper/indicator arrangement is to put your left hand on the gearstick while engaging the blinkers. Thus you need to use your right hand for that.
I can’t believe you got it for free !
I have been watching you for years and really enjoy your videos but lately your videos have been a lot of talking and chatting about things way to much about nonsense and not a lot of building it better it’s a shame because your builds are great to watch please don’t take this as bad I think it’s time to build some thing ☺️
I worked for a Japanese company and I was always told that the Japanese companies were all cutting edge technology. The company I worked for didn't even allow computers onsite until like 2000. I had to do a lot of Health and Safety reports to OSHA and the last reports were typed on an IBM Selectric. (That is a typewriter)! They were not high tech
at all.
Wasn't just a plain-vanilla typewriter. Big, hulking electric that used a rotating ball for typing instead of a row pf individual letters. Super advanced...... for 1965.
That model of Supra is fantastic... Whoever is getting that car is extremely lucky. Such a beautiful car.
My Japanese (RHD) Imported (to Australia) Black 1993 (Series 1) MKIV Supra had an insert in the rear bumper covering some of that hole (not all of it though). The horizontal fins in the insert sat either side of the license plate when fitted. I would think that your 94 would also be series 1 as well. Mine was also 5 speed manual (SZ not the Twin Turbo RZ) with the cloth front seats, leather rear seats, no airbags (Tri spoke steering wheel and double glovebox) and a factory LSD (Rare I was told). It also had orange side indicators that I changed to clear (like yours). I removed the ashtray in the centre console and used that hole as my cup holder (Yes they're essential). I had it for 6 or 7 years before I was T-Boned in it. Unfortunately it never drove the same after the repairs so I sold it. I'd love another one but they're way too expensive now. I look forward to seeing how you go with yours. Brings back so many memories. Good luck! :)
Jeez, for free? I wouldn't care what condition a Supra was in if it was for free x_x I've dreamt of owning that car even before Fast and Furious made it popular. 23+ years now
Tavarish your great! But your channel needs a little more focus. Content is everywhere lately. Just an honest comment. You got this!
I'll give you a like. However, I have almost 0 confidence in you actually completing this project.
Ever tried to operate your radio on a bumpy road? That's where your remote comes in handy. And a remote is easier to operate without looking away from the road.
The remote control, for the radio is important.
When changing the song at 100mph
Outstanding Vlog !! Mr Tavarish & Team .............. Bless
Best use I found for a remote control on stereo head is in a lifted truck, or a slammed car. When the vehicle is bouncing all over, it is hard to push small fine buttons on the dash.
here in ireland anything jdm is atleast 10k and anything that is the factory race version of that car like an evo, wrx, gtr, gt4 is like 50k minimum that supra would sell her for like 50k aslong as it starts.
At 14:28 timestamp, that's the ETC (Electronic Toll Card) device saying "there's no card to be found in the device" in Japanese.
It's better to keep that way for the car's aesthetic.
The remotes for radios are for when ur at car meet and ur a bit from ur vehicle and wanna turn your music up alot of guys would keep em in thier shirt pockets look cool flippin it out amd turnin up or changing ur radio
Radio remotes were a great tool for audio competitors in the 90s still are today but alot of folks now just extend their radios on long pigtails to outside the car cuz the levels of vibrations today's comp systems put off can mess with radios. Prs80s by pioneer are notorious for not liking bass levels in the 155dbs or highers at about 30 to 32hz or lower unless on an "enteral headunit" set up.
4:30 Just take a look at this thing is... isn...isn't it just..**ducking dies** lmfao 🤣
That gadget you put the card in is for ETC (electronic toll collection) for highway toll gates. The one voice in Japanese said you don't have an ETC card in the machine.
The little box next to your left leg is the ETC card machine. It’s used to pay highway tolls
just for being RHD and someone already paid the import makes it not exactly worthless
The reason the radio has a remote is for when ur outside of the car and playing music and want to skip a song or turn the volume up or down. For example if u and the boys r playing some ball and want some music while ur playing.
In Japan there is special tamperproof heard where that hold the licence plates off and when the plate is mounted to the body in the rear there is generally a 10mm bolt that you undoubtedly flip the plate up and slide the bumper off over it
I love those whote advan wheels, i had them on my r32gtr, you buy how u ised to build them before Jared showed you the error of your ways.
Now get it rebuilt forged & boosted to a happy 550bhp and let a fan buy it
The card slot nearby the pedals is for the ETC card. it allow to access the paid highway without need to stop for a ticket (yes I know, american people often miss that in many country you need to pay the highway). So, you sign a contract, get a ETC card, slot in, and then you can properly roam for the tokyo highway.
Edit: the "female robot" told you that there is no card slotted in.
3:29 how does an NA 2jzge only make 125 hp like yeah there's powerloss over time and the engine in this was pretty roughed up but you said it was as much in your cleaner white supra, these make around 230hp from the factory right?
