7:05 Masaya !!! I thought he was the HKS boss of UK. My favourite quote of his is “If people say the 86 is too slow then roads they are on are too straight”. He knows what’s up!
Summer 1989, Fountain ave. NYC. Street drag racing filled with the era's muscle cars. In comes this guy with a white MKlll Supra with "HKS" on the sides. Immediately starts gapping Mustangs, Camaros, Corvettes and hangs with Grand Nationals! That was the first time I heard of HKS and it wasn't till the Internet came about that I was able to learn more. That mystery HKS "killer" Supra has always been on my mind. Thanks for the tour and hope to visit one day.
When I was a wee lad, around 9th grade 85', we had a exchange student from Japan, Hiro, very cool dude. His brother had a Supra MK1 with a Trust sticker and body kit, all white, I forget the rim type (spoke of some sort) had a HKS sticker and exhaust on it. That was my intro to HKS.
This trip to Japan has been so awesome to watch. So glad you all have the chance to see such legends in person and soak up all the Japanese culture first hand!
Larry, I ordered a RWB Porsche poster from your store and was beyond impressed with the quality and thanks so much for the extra goodies you threw in the package!! You do the best work in the industry hands down!!
I absolutely love this tour!!! I could prove it with all the timestamps of cars I've tried to replicate of GT Sport! Livin tha LIFE LARRY!!!! Thank you for the great shots and backstories! Love it!
I'm a model builder and have a Tamiya model of the Mercedes CLK (#58291) and was only for the Japanese market. I managed to get one though. Nice to see the real car.
Larry bro....is it the high altitude near Mt.Fuji that has you breathing hard my dude? Everything okay I hope! Content always sick ass hell tho! Keep it flowin
That looked so fun! I can only imagine how awesome that would be to see in person *question* how does the anti-lag continue after you’ve let off the throttle? I thought it’d be like a 2-step and you have to have your foot on the gas to engage and then let off and it stop... that thing was just goin bonkers until he flipped that switch
Anti lag on non drag cars continues the entire time you're off throttle to keep the turbo spooled up the entire time you're driving i.e. drift and rally cars so you can get back in it and just go
I've always wondered how much power is restricted by the mushroom filter vs a large cone style filter in front of all the heat obviously they make plenty with the mushroom just more of a curiosity

HKS Super Oils = Best livery imo.
Ever since I saw that Group A R32 for the first time I've been in love with it!
Definitely, and the hks confetti's are by far the best looking seats
I DID NOT expect that guys voice to be so British and proper!!🤣🤣🤣😲🤘🏻
Caught me off guard as well 🤣
I wouldn't be surprised if he spent half his life in the UK to get that sorta accent.
Izz Din yeah must of grown up there
HKS has class.
Probably was the guy that ran HKS Europe.

Anti lag = fire balls through the turbos to keep them spooled... It's fucking great! And rolling anti lag exists as well which is quite insane
Straight up drooling over these bad ass machines,the heritage car collection is sick AF!
Man Larry is good yo
I said it before, I'll say it again, amazing shots, composition, music...and CARS!!!
JamieFYD was here at the same moment, that was so cool to see.
Amazing love this series so much thank you for this...
The showroom / museum containing all the older HKS vehicles and engines was super cool.
why am I disappointed that he didn't have a thick Japanese accent? 🤣
Too much briton in the tongue? Lmao
On of the best after market manufacture, have long history and JDM icon.
I am the only one to fall in love with Hana?
I love that classic HKS livery . I'm a huge HKS fanboy lol . I'm hoping to vinyl wrap my s14 with the HKS livery in the future .
Once you do the deed, come back to this comment & update us on the looks. Should be good bro.
Larry is killing it on Hoonigan! And shout out to greatest country in the world 🇯🇵

I love ur work. I feel like ur career is just one gaijantic art piece ✨
Those supras had some craaaazy spacers
That HKS V12....I just started to salivate. Amazing video! So much knowledge and history in 20mins, love it!
Video of the year right here 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
That museum is incredible
I'm a model builder and have a Tamiya model of the Mercedes CLK (#58291) and was only for the Japanese market. I managed to get one though. Nice to see the real car.
My favorite altezza build
The R32 GTR & that CLK are perfect!
Larry - please tell us there is a photo of all 3 of the Supra's w/ HKS w/ Mt Fuji in the background for a desktop wallpaper somewhere.
That’s GE!!! Head I’m in love GE POWER!!!!
Interesting head choice. Just noticed that water neck on the right side and evenly spaced straight exhaust ports. Definitely vvt-i GE head.
On of the greatest pictures ever at 2:13 👌🏼
Where's the HKS Pro mod 180SX Drag car and the HKS Skyline R33 Drag Car those car suppose to be in HKS museum?

The amount of compression on the lens you all captured images with in the beginning makes the cars look like little toys.
HKS is frigging legendary in the tuning scene at this point, also of course they all have 2Js bahaha, good stuff.
I am drooling over the Opel Vectra
HKS is the most scenic place on earth for monumental car builds. Just look at it!
She IS fine! ❤
kheff46 Someone need to find that IG
I'ma just leave this . Here
@.hanubuu_
That car is probably upwards of 200K to build . most of us can only dream of something at that level.
I've always wondered how much power is restricted by the mushroom filter vs a large cone style filter in front of all the heat obviously they make plenty with the mushroom just more of a curiosity
Can you guys make an entire episode of anti-lag awesomeness?
Does Larry make these photos available anywhere?! (That Supra trio in front of Mt. Fuji ... 🤤🤤)
i love this videos!
19:12 he knew it was coming so he just covered his ears haha.
Suddenly I have the urge to get out my OG Tamiya Beak Spider.
What Canon camera you are shooting with?
Thanks to Larry for retaining me as a view of Hoon content. The rest is old hat
Epic I love the vauxhall Vectra
Cool video, but it didn't just do a burnout on the dyno. The fender cut an extra groove into the rear tires.
That yellow little sports car looks like a twin to the Swedish Indigo 3000 built by Jösse Car
