Uishh bro lame x nampak
Initial D was real back in the late 80's...wish those old racers do a come back
They would get arrested by cops and die
@Happydiamo... that’s the fun part, make sure you don’t get caught or don’t die.
@@aerophine_66 as in nowadays the cops are stricter last time they will let you get away with it
@Happydiamo... that’s true, it’s mostly because of Initial D and other Anime’s that the cops started taking this seriously
its still alive

Yo Kenneth! Don't know if you still remember me, Jonathan from Singapore who used to drive a blue 180sx and we used to work together at Hot Stuff magazine, hanged out at Racing Works and sometimes drive together when you had your AE86. Remember? 😃🤘That was like 20 years ago man! Great times. 😊 I'm really happy to see you living your dreams in Japan. Wish I could keep in touch with you but don't know how. Anyways, take care my dear friend. Keep grinding. 👍 God bless. 🙏👍👍👍👍👍
Yo see this comment it's heartwarming🎌,also I hope jdm master can see this
crazy
i'm from Singapore too but i was only born in 2001, they used to have 180SX and AE86s in Singapore?? 😨 would be so cool to see them nowadays..
PanadolSZN bro, I'm glad to hear from another Singaporean. 😃🤙🙏 good news is...there are still some 180SXs (it's 200SX over here) and AE86s left in SG. Bad news, it's getting really rare gems. Treasure it and prepare for a long $distance marathon$. But do what you can to save these cars on our soil as much as possible. Cheers. This can be a whole TH-cam series about the disappearing JDM Legends in SG. **wink wink 😉 @captbradford
@@jonathanjameschapman-lim2959 Hey there, I'm an automotive photographer from Singapore too. Any idea what happened to your 180SX, and do you still drive a JDM?

He's still alive!?!
omg, bunta still arrived⁉︎
Lol!! This had me, well spotted haha.
bunta never died
I used the Initial D inspiration to get serious into sim racing then get a full time job at 15 and started attacking my local roads just a week after turning 17. Picked up an EF and transitioned from sim world to reality. Greatest memories ever, learning the car and the road, then randomly having someone notice your vehicle and take you on a battle. It is who i am today. I breath only to race and put everything into my car. It is who i am and it is my mechanical half. 5 years ago I dreamt about having a fully built and dialed car to my likings and camp in it during my weekends at the track. I'm living my life to the fullest and its been a dream thanks to ID getting me into chasing down fucks at 3am
Chris H EF owner here. Same fun to drive as AE86. Dont lose it
@@jeromealcantara722 will never! I'm on my 4th now and still have my first one and plan on possibly storing in my garage when i save up for a home within the 2 years. Daily right now as its retired but do have a wagon with a dohc zc swap to go along with my summer/track car. Wine does not get cheaper as it ages ;), only finer
"get serious into sim racing"
In other words you mean you were a virgin till you were 25.
@@esfitnesspro2455 nope. Lost at 17 actually. I was doing Sim racing from 14 or so on wards. Did the opposite deterring, mostly because its not a cheap hobby, along with racing in real life. I checked out your channel by the way. Love the cancerous content, dad
@@sqweezzstr super duper. When I was 15 I was the youngest licensed driver in SCCA and won't first nat'l championship at 15. Youngest to do so. Won nat'l championship at 16 & 18 as well. 17 owe didn't secure sponsorship early enough.
My approach to initial D was the music - the anime followed later. I was able to visit Haruna, Akagi, Myogi and Usui - and it was Incredible, I had so much fun. Thank You for this documentary, I enjoyed it !
@Joey Mantka ok bro
I think this video is the best content about Initial-D in youtube.
Keep these likes count at 86.
This is all very similar to the mountain roads I used to grip-drive from 1999 to 2003 in my 1977 Porsche 924 that I built to full road race spec... I used to run Highway 2 Angeles Crest and Angeles Forest highways from San Gabriel Valley outside of LA up over the mountains to the High Desert city of Palmdale... I was learning to drift back then but there was NO ONE else to drift with... The release of Fast & Furious had everyone stuck on 1320' and street drags....
I still have the Porsche 21 years later... And I'm proud to say Im the new owner (#3!) Of a Black on Black BB2 Prelude with a ton of 90s JDM parts already installed including a F22 DOHC with a Spoon chipped P39 ECU and a set of cams readline is at 7900!!!
Watching this stuff is really awesome.... I've only just NOW discovered Initial D!!!! I'm stoked!
Thank you for you dedication and time!!!!
Wow I'm amazed how really narrow the roads are, and how takumi managed to get an overtake. Awesome man love it, and
No wonder A miata is a great choice for this kind of road.
nope
Kei cars exist
@@ocallaghan3865 yeah man, thats why lot's of kei car in japan

If you make this a weekly series, your channel will definitely grow fast. You have a lot of knowledge not only of the manga, but also the real life locations as well as the history of what actually happened when it came to street racing decades ago. Great work btw! Keep it up👍
Thank you and we publish every Friday at 01:00 am at Japan Time.
JDM Masters already subscribed 👌🏽 Btw, ever think about doing a collab with Drifthunter Albo? He has 170k subs so you guys will definitely expand your audience if you can make that happen. Good luck! I’ll be looking forward to your videos 👌🏽
@@InitialD.MFGhost good idea.
what made omiya spin out wasn't the absence of the wing, but the way it stayed on the car creating lift on the back. Given an ammount of angle of attack, it could create a force strong enough to mess up the handling even with speeds below 100 km/h, but that's something that should be tested (imagine an initial d version of mythbusters)
The unbalanced airflow of the broken but still hanging wing messed up the rear grip and made him spin out. It would've been better if it had fallen off
Your points on the aerodynamics are quite convincing, however, I believe that aerodynamics would be almost as important as getting the suspension setup. My basis for this is in Rally racing, where the roads are incredibly bumpy and are typically held on public roads, exactly like street racing. In Rally, a lot of turns can be taken under 100Km/hr, yet aerodynamics is still widely used by competitive teams in the WRC. Aero has two purposes in Rally; improving grip on the dirt allowing the cars to corner faster, and to keep the car as close to the ground as possible. Hoshimiya's car also had a splitter underneath the rear bumper and likely also has a flat underbody to help keep the car planted to the ground as much as possible, and the splitter breaking and flailing in the wind put hoshimiya at a disadvantage, since his car is suddenly allowed to bounce around far more than with the wing in tact. This upsets the car and it's tuning, since the suspension is tuned for the higher level of downforce and not the reduced amount. His car then rides higher than with all the Aero functioning properly, raising the centre of gravity and making the car less stable over the bumps. Takumi's car has been tuned to drive over the bumps and to handle the force of constantly gaining miniscule amounts of airtime, and Takumi through prior experience at other touges (think about the race against the pro driver in the SPOON Civic on the rough, unstable roads) was able to handle the rises and troughs more like a straight road.
It's only my theory so far, based on evidence in other places, and I haven't been to Yabitsu pass myself so I have no idea about the exact conditions of the road. In the video the road looks like it has a consistent wave like pattern in the height all the way along the road.
Omiya not Hoshiya*
This is so cool to see! I’ve spent so much of my life devoted to drift cars that are built in the initial D era and style. It’s just awesome to see something come from fiction to life
The 80's and the 90's as a car guy this were some really fun years in the Japan.
Over rev is great but finding it in English is a real pain. Great vid boys
Finished watching all episodes of Initial D 4 months ago and now saw this video. Just amazing. Did not know those locations exist even though was looking for any info on instagram profiles about Initial D. You guys just amazing. Thank you for the content. Definitely adding these locations to my Japan visit list.
Enjoying the channel, hoping you can keep up the quality uploads. Loved the Spoon episode and this one was a surprise. Nice to see a stock ek9 briefly.
日本の車、峠、アニメ、イニシャルDを愛してくれてとても嬉しく思います。
This channel is horribly undersubbed, you guys make such great content, so glad I found you early
Oh God! I'm on the final few videos now! I've been binge watching since I found your channel. Keep up the good work guys! I'm looking forward to more in the future.
Wow...
Thank you guys for making this video.
PLEASE don't stop making this series. I'll watch every episode.
wow! am actually reading over rev right now so intresting to learn about the fun fact of where the manga's setting is! didnt see that coming.
Initial D fan in the US migrated from Taiwan. Thanks for the great video and show us more!
Cap & Aussie mate & Japonic!
Big Time Bravo! You are indeed inspiring even those who never watched Initial D!
Keep up the work!
thanks for this brillant content jdm masters 💯
Really enjoying how raw your videos are. can't wait to see where these videos are 5 years from now. Getting the same vibes as when I started watching MightyCarMods - when they started out.
I recently hired a car in the Sendai region and drove around the mountains there. what an experience. Even though I was in a yaris or something it was so great.
Can't wait to see what you have in future on this channel.
Please do a episode on IROHAZAKA 🤘
RUN HARD best run hands down especially downhill
with an mr2
do the jump!
@@divingradish no
@Chicken Hashbrown... wtf dude
Amazing!! I've been dreaming about this for a long time. I've got to see these roads before I die. Really need to go to Japan, just for this. Thank you for making this kind of content! keep it up!
I really enjoy your channel, it's going to blow up because of all the cool things you're doing and the detail and quality of the videos. Great work.
The channel continues to evolve and I realized that there are fewer Turkish comments than the previous video.👍
Driving down Mt Haruna is on my bucket list
Thank you for this amazing content, really appreciate the effort that goes into this
This was great. I liked you had a reference manga and talked about the different locations but didn't rush anything. I have subscribed and look forward to more :)
Please continue this! Your feelings towards these locations are exactly the same as mine. Also your guide is bloody awesome. Thank you so much for this video.
Very good flow on this, Ken, Josh and Japonic. Wasn't boring in the least, good information. Good presentation. Great job.
This is brilliant! Love the technicality of it! no one else is doing that! Big respect! , Benny.
Wow this is a Great job!!
greetings from initial d fans of Brazil
Definitely do more of these! Loved every minute of it.
Good lord this channel has came out swinging. Lots of views each video congrats!!
To go to japan would be a dream come true mabe one day
Should probably learn how to spell Japan first. 🤨
@@negativeindustrial my bad lol

I’m just fucking with you, bro. Have a good trip when you make it over there. I loved it when I went (Even tho Fukushima happened on my last day)
I want to go to the touges there and the daikokufuto parking lot because of initial d and wangan midnight
I went to japan but sadly when i went to japan i dint knew nothing about initial d so i dint go to the initial d place :((
Great start on a new channel 👍. You just earned a sub
I really like this series!
Keep up the good work! ❤️
I really enjoy this channel keep up the goodwork mate! Cheers
Usui Pass would be awesome to cover. Subbed for this series!
Was not expecting the Capt to slide in a mention of Over Rev! Too underrated for its own good.
Love the channel man keep it up
OMG, Thank you! I have been in Japan this summer (im from Spain) and on my next travel perhaps in 2021, Im thinking about rent a car and travel on my own, so please! continue doing videos like this one! Thanks!
This is a very nice video, this is where I think real driving starts. This is where you get exhausted and beat up mentally and physically. It's not just about who is better, but how long can you keep up.
Subscribed!! I grew up on Initial D I have all the seasons in physical copy since I was a teen I’m 27 now a lot of ppl talk how bad the Tokyo Pop dub was but I enjoyed them since it had the same atmosphere I grew up in NY back in the mid to late 2000s in NY (NYCE1S, street racing, placing bets $$, Hip-Hop, different teams (there was literally an all Evo team like Team Emperor here they were called Top Level) It was drag racing but the atmosphere was the same good times
of course I love the original with subs which is why I have an entire genre of Eurobeat in my iPod today lol
"a beat embarasing pumping eurobeat" HOW DARE YOU BEEN EMBARASED OF THAT ????¿¿¿¿ THATS A MUST
Amazing video mate keep it up!
I really enjoyed every second of it. After that I decided to watch Amine. Many thanks for this video. By the way I would like to see the japonic on next videos.Thank you.
i love the edit with the overlays of both scenes that was dope af ! subbed! please some content on subies! G'day josh ! Aussie here mate !
this is so well presented. Way better than some snobby other youtuber that does this kinda thing. Well done guys.
obviously Initial D is a Masterpiece!
Awesome content :) thanks and keep it up
Love this series dude keep it up
Great work again👍💪
Expectation VS Reality. XD 11:45
well its better if they film it at night.
@@ath_ala8078 plus with high speed
Also these are normal daily drivers at morning in their usual speeds, not racers in a race at night time.....
Your videos are perfect. I love the relaxed easy going nature. Please maintain this
Nice content! Keep it up guys. Do come to Malaysia one day to check out Malaysia's touge roads like the genting highway for example
I knew I would love this video, the moment it popped up in my recommended section !
Great watch cant wait for more!!
Initial D myth that hopefully great JDM JOPO tools legend Japanese engine wars between brands amazing to see again the spirit of this spirit will continue forever JDM vehicles enormous quality japan I etmeknistiy visit a fabulous day my favorite brand nissan favorite car GTR R34 though I wish rx7 super in Turkey toyota supra is great to see these vehicles in my country is not very good english I can not understand you but I do not understand much jdm master channel I love the support of cars
What an amazing docu about Yabitsu! And it's a shame that it hasn't been recreated for the Assetto Corsa SIM, where you have all the touges in Initial D except Yabitsu, which for me it's both the most beautiful in real life and challenging at the same time. Wonderful job from yours, many regards, chapeau! 👌
This episode made me subscribe, just this one alone, I need more of this 😉
Amazing! I'm waiting for new episodes.
this video successfully made me wants to rewatch the series
Thank you recommended for this awesome video. This is awesome 👏
We really gotta thank the hard working modders out there, who go out of their ways in often what is deemed their spare time, to recreate places in games like Assetto Corsa for us to enjoy safely.
wow so cool, didnt expect that so many things in the anime are taken so exactly from the reality.
THIS IS SO COOL!... Huge Initial D Fan.
So cool guys, keep it up !!!!
epic!! subbed
This show is a very nice way to get in touch with the culture while remaining familiar with the fiction we all love
To be honest with you guys I first found songs from Initial d in meme compilations and other videos then I writed the songs, after that I saw from which anime it was I started watching and never stopped.
Super channel! What I enjoy most, as I’m not native English speaking person. The pure British English with Japanese accent.
I would cry tears of joy if I could actually go there. It is my ultimate Dream.
Keep up the good work.
I enjoyed this way more than expected, very interesting. Subscribed for more quality content and looking forward for more!
Those drone Shots are absolutely stunning. As a nature and car lover this is a definitely a bucket list destination for me. Being from Canada, It would probably take some practice to drive on the left side of the road.
Nice content. More please :D
Awesome! Always thought this pass roads are one way drive. But with cars in opposite direction, this is crazy.
Greetings from z nation Germany
Looks a great driving road and hope to be there one day on holiday.
i knew what initial d was by music and memes but never got around to watching it but when i did it made me cry. it was so perfect
I actually cried when itsuke accidentally bought the ‘85
It made me sad lmao
Ok, just found this....this is absolutely on my list!!!
It's a beautiful video. Great. It's very easy to understand. This is a video I want to introduce to many people.
Thanks a lot for this super cool content
kanal büyüyor inşallah hocam :)
That was so cool, I can't stop thinking about this. Can't wait for part 2. I wanna see this dude's dc2 fuck I love Honda's
This Gives Me goose bumps reminds me of me and my friends and all the mountain runs we would do.
Yo this is so cool!
Awesome video. Thanks a lot...
Thats so incredible one. I hope I can go to Japan to feel it by my own self. 🚗🚗
I might watch car channels like Donut Media, Roads Untraveled and ThatDudeInBlue, but IMO JDM Masters will always be my Go-to channel for quality car-related content.
Wow i love your videos💖fans initial D
Amazing video!
