Kansai Car Culture Is Absolutely Thriving!!...

- You know what I enjoy the most about going to various car events in Japan? I'll most certainly always come across something that is interesting or that I've never seen before. And I'm being completely honest. That's why I'm open to seeing everything possible while I'm out here. There will be times when I go to a meet or show back at home in the States and I'll genuinely ask myself, like why did I even come to this? Lol. That sounds terrible but I mean, you get so used to seeing what you see at home that traveling is so incredibly important to keep the creative juices flowing, you know what I mean? When I was planning out my trip, and I use the word 'planning' very loosely, I put together a list of events that were happening during my stay. That way I didn't miss an opportunity to go see something new. It just so happened that while I was in Osaka, there was a Central Time Attack Challenge (CTAC) happening in nearby Hyogo. I had a great time last year when I went to Central for a Honda time attack event so I wasn't about to miss this one. CTAC has some pretty fast, competitive, time attack cars at all their events. Most are Hondas but there are other makes and models competing as well like RX-7s, R35 GTRs, etc. There were a couple guys that we knew that were driving that day too so Yasu and I made a day of it. What I quickly came to realize is that car culture in this region is absolutely thriving in 2023. The parking lot was full of spectator cars as well as support vehicles, the paddock was jampacked with cars, and the sounds of straight-piped exhausts were bouncing off the walls as cars ripped through the straights of Central Circuit. What a fantastic day this was...

There's nothing better then seeing a bunch of race tuned classic civics racing on a track. And my God that CRX is too clean for a track car lol. It's like Yanagi's EG, built for both track and show.
Its called Show & Go
It does it all!
Idk how anyone could hate on Hondas, the amount of versatility in each and every car is amazing.
“This kids trapped outside his vehicle… good luck to him” 😂😂
Whats the time stamp😭
@@luipatix3420 15:10
His brother did him dirty lol
@@THECHRONICLES well now we know who the younger one is
Plus he used the same tone like reviewing cars 💀
japanese car culture is so beautiful
Like in advance.
Always
Japan always had better Honda style
So happy for you that you have been able to make the most of this trip! Grateful that you made time to record and share your experiences with us. And not just this year but in years past. Always appreciate your perspective and love for all things JDM. Like you say - Passion first the rest will follow 😃 (P.S. - Always amazed at how chill the drivers and mechanics are in the pits especially in the midst of the work they are doing)
Thanks, I appreciate everyone taking the time to watch all this stuff I make. I'd honestly be doing it even if no one was watching because I'd just like to have it as a record of all the things I've seen and done over the years.
I went to pee and the grass was on fire 🙃
Nice as usual. Unfortunately there are some audio cuts again..
Only here for the Okonomiyaki content! Starts looking at ticket prices to Japan.... *sigh*
The yellow crx and gun metal RX-7 are just amazing 🤤 God i would to go to Japan some day!
Kid trapped outside lmao
Best of luck to him
It’s always the low key commentary in your vids that sends me “this kids trapped outside his vehicle, good luck to him.” 💀😂
The music at the end sounds like the Vince Giraldi Treo from the Peanuts cartoons
I love these vids!
Thanks!
So I'm looking over the costs for track events and days out in Japan and it's no wonder. My local track for 1, 1 hour event is 500 USD, Seems most of the tracks in Japan will get you an hour for less than 100 dollars outside of GP tracks. The track that is closer to me out of DFW costs 8,600 USD a year to use as the base.
I wish I could afford a decent Ef9 front end for my turbo 91 Hatch, the prices for them are crazy here in the US. Maybe one day.
Love all the EF builds.
Thank you for documenting and keeping the culture alive.
I almost feel guilty saying this but the content is so good and informative i feel like i should be paying to watch this.😅
There's a button up top on the right called "Super Thanks" where you can literally do that lol.
Say less 🙌🏻
What’s going on with the tire shaving? Just cleaning off marbles or something else? Almost looked like a guy was rubbing some sort of compound into the tire at one point too?
Nice one💪👍🤝🔥💯
It’s 🔥
Hi Joey, I just caught up 2 months behind on your vlogs 😆 in just one night at my job, thank you for the content and for this 40 day stay in Japan ✌️🔰☀️
you have motivated me to restore my ek4 and my ep3r for this year, hard work for this despite the restrictions on the automobile in my country thank you again for the quality you offer 🙏
Just here to make the work day easier haha
Man, after I watched this vid, I was left completely speechless right now just by witnessing this pure authentic car culture there in Japan!!! Sadly to say that Civics like these aren't get much appreciated here in the western part of our country because they'd perceive these cars as a "ricer" even they are really not. Most people out here are only care about horsepower, this "sUpErCaR KiLLeR" thing which only plays on a straight lines like drag strips or public highways, loud fart cans, and lastly, for annoying clout chasers/car wannabes!! Those people don't truly appreciate the beauty and art of these wonderful machines to its fullest and only a few people could be able to understand that including you, me, and other Civic enthusiasts as well!! I know that not all of them aren't like those types of people that I've mentioned above and also, there's still some handful of western guys who are genuinely passionate about these vehicles and I truly appreciate them, the only thing here is it's too generic which is really annoying and they're ruining the reputation and the true essence of car culture overall!! I mean yeah sure, you could do whatever you want to your car, you do you but the main problem here is most people who are doing these things aren't mostly for themselves alone but rather to brag to others and you know, eventually leading to cutthroat moments and fight breakouts so yeah, most of them are doing it for c*ckshow and it's really frustrating!! Sorry for ranting here about those things that I've said all of a sudden, I'm just really really sick of these annoying people nowadays especially the takeover here. Anyways, I truly enjoy your contents and hopefully this will spread worldwide so that many people (including enthusiasts) could be able to know what's the true essence of car culture and the main reason why you love cars and why you are in to them!!! You are one of the main pillars for carrying the true legacy of car culture and hopefully we'd be able to carry it and pass it to the future generations!! This is by far, the most authentic, raw, and genuine in depth scene that I've ever seen and please keep on doing this and sharing your real passion and love for these glorious machines!!! If ever you'll see this comment, I just want to let you know that you have my absolute respect especially for this one!! Thank you so much for sharing this!! And may you enjoy your quality time there in Japan and experience their culture even more!! Again, sorry for this long essay comment and have a great day ahead!!
Incredible video again man. Always the best when you’re in Japan.
I try haha, thanks for watching
It was probably someone's brakes or exhaust coming in contact with the grass that set it on fire. Excellent video! I really appreciated the extra time that you spent with so many of the cars there!
Happy you enjoyed the detail!
yea in SoCal they warn about parking along side road in mountains, our exhaust can light the brush!
My homie MOZ let's gooooo
That yellow crx made me happy in the pants
I have a Zc33s and that's the funniest car i have drove, it's one of the most popular sport cars in japan atm
That Yellow CRX at 11:00 was unreal... Such a clean car 👌🤤👍
wow a tuning bus. and did the kid ever get in the vehicle ?
Hopefully yes lol I don’t know
Dude you are sooooo blessed to go to Japan! I want to hang out with legends.

EF hatch is my lost love... they are so expensive to restore now a days... I've owned 7 ef hatches/crx... I'm a sucker for this chassis..
JDM Civic Nirvana, right there.
I actually couldn’t handle this! It was pure agony to see all those EF civics and know I don’t have one anymore. Unbelievable how awesome those cars still are!!!!! Pure beauty
Great video.
What is the tyre shaving all about? I've been doing track days for years in the UK and never seen anyone do that.
Also do Japanese Circuits not have noise limits? 😂
“This process shaves off the outermost layer of tread area, accessing the tire's best performance characteristics without having to wear them to that point. Shaving tires reduces tread squirm which improves steering response and heat build-up, lowering the risk of tread blistering.”
And no some smaller tracks do not have noise limits.
Whats the story on auto select? Why are they dangerous?
Umm some stories are left off the internet haha
This is the content I love to see. Really enjoying your latest videos, thanks man.
Happy to share, glad you like it
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I glanced over the title and read, "Kansas car culture is absolutely thriving!" Yeah...no....US car culture is completely dead. 😔
That ITR is scenes

Legal aqui do Brasil curtindo esses carros tops
5:08 - IN YOUR FACE HONDA PRO JASON...!!!
Thank you, Joey
You’re welcome!
One of your best vids, really got me wanting an RX8 after watching this. And so great to see Honda still rules Osaka!
They will rule as long as we exist here haha
The RX-8 is such an underrated chassis. Have you seen The Slip Angle's videos on theirs ("The Performance Bargain of the Century" from a couple years ago)? Haha, I guess don't, if you don't want further temptation to buy one.
@@accord_aero_r Funnily enough I parked next to a red RX8 yesterday and it looked so good. They are indeed underrated
Thanks for blessing us with this vlog content 🙏
You’re welcome!
If that's a real EV1 GT-R that's incredibly rare. Nissan only made 68 EV1 R34 GT-R's in total
11:13 that timing belt tho 🥴too much movement
Great content man!
16:07 Marshal do something.
16:54 is that a factory color for a gtr or is it custom?
Dang that Fujita rx7 was nice
Awesome video bro
Thanks man
I want to Japan and after i want NOT BACK also i am whit the Girl from you!❤❤❤🤘🤘🤘
Honda's are PORN DUDE!😍😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤❤
you have one of the coolest niche channels on youtube
Thank you! Niche is the correct word haha
i love hondas
🔥🔥🔥
Thank you. That was amazing!
24:08 the crack off that red ef...anyone know his @?
Jaccs ef hatch🔥
Did anybody know other than osaka & tokyo where other region in japan have same car culture like osaka & tokyo ?
Every region is different slightly. There are plenty places all over Japan with car culture, it's just unique to their region and style.
How come they have all a lot of money in their cages but barely any with a harness bar? Is it common to mount the seat belts to the floor instead of a harness bar on the cage?
Yeah harness bars aren’t really common here, their cages are designed very differently as well and aren’t super tight to the chassis frame.
Them Fpf-1 looks hot
Why most of them are hondas?
Because they love Hondas.
Cool seeing all the variety, the slight audio cuts I’m guessing is from music in the background??
No it’s an issue with the rendering. I’m doing everything on my laptop so I don’t always have time to go over it after I upload it. I just gotta be better at checking.
@@THECHRONICLES ah no worries, thought it was my hdmi cord messing with me
That Allen key sitting in the strut adjuster gave me anxiety. I know I would forget about it and close the hood on it!!!!
No, they keep those keys in there. They don't take them out lol.
@@THECHRONICLES I didn’t think there was enough room to clear!! Still makes me nervous I guess from years of forgetting stuff and slamming the hood!!
@@stuross7321 my old JIC coilovers were also like that
FYI your audio is cutting out occasionally.
Sorry seems to be happening during rendering on my new laptop, I’ll figure it out.
@@THECHRONICLES No problem, just thought I would let you know.
hello what body do dc2? ?
M&M Honda
Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone can help me with a problem I have with my November 2008 Honda Accord Euro R CL7, it seems whenever the engine is up to temperature it will cut out, like a switch was thrown, then the green key light will start flashing and it won’t restart, but if I leave the car sitting for around an hour it will start up again like nothing happened, I have checked everything, it’s even been to the main Honda dealership here in Belfast N Ireland, they say there is no faults showing on the dash or on there main computer, it has the stock ECU and the stock Immobiliser system, can anyone please help me sort this out, it’s been like this for 3 months now, it would be very much Appreciated guys, thanks.
16:54 My car!
