So idk if anyone will see this but i kow whats up with the gtr, i asked the owner about it in lame mans terms( he wants to rebuild it to sell it for more money, but he cant afford the parts because America and he cant bring himself to sell it). If anyone can actually get him to sell it good for you but when i talked tohim he had no interest in talking about it and kept changing subjects
@@CaptTwo6 all good brother its sad because he cant afford to fix it but he cant bring himself to sell it and its eating me away to see it rotting away there
I’ve read a ton about how the Japanese mechanics “fix” these cars that have been beat to piss and they try and sell them for like 5x what they are worth. Basically putting lipstick on a pig. Usually freshen up paint, and put a body kit on it and send it to US.
@@joshthiel257 thats just the tip of the ice burge my friend i have friends that live on the mainland im on okinawa but i know of dralerships that wont sell them to japanese because they get more money from Americans, i have personally see a japanese customer get denied service and asked tonleave and helped my friend and i with a smile its sickening to think about tbh
S14 for $13k in Japan: Straight body, matching paint, runs, practically mint. S14 for $13k in the USA: sanded and primed fenders, missing half the engine, gutted interior, “drift tax bro, no low ballers I know what I got”
Dont let this distract you from the fact that hector is going to be running three Honda civics with spoon engines, and on top of that he just went into Harry's and bought three t66 turbos with nos, and moetec exhaust system.
You will definitely be able to afford one of these if you put you mind to it. Make a budget and be patient. By the time your close to the $ you need you’ll have a better idea of what you’re looking for and what you want to do to your car anyways.
@@CaptTwo6 Cap, I need a R33 GTR... Is it doable to get that one into the States? I have relatives in military and an uncle-in-law in Japan (haven't talked to him much but I'm sure he could help somehow). I can never seem to get anyone past an initial discussion before I'm sure they forget about it and it's no longer important... Lol. Cars mean everything to me.
Elias Dimopoulos I was never stationed in Japan, but I was stationed in Germany. The military will ship a vehicle to you from the states, or ship a vehicle you bought there back home (when you leave that duty station). You can’t just buy and ship vehicles as you wish. A relative can’t just buy a car for you and have it sent free of charge. It doesn’t work that easily. The military isn’t going to use their transportation and tome and money to help you out. Sorry to say, but they barely take care of their own soldiers. If you want one, you’ll have to get it yourself or a third party purchaser. Good luck.
So true, lol, a JDM car that was never made for America, good luck with the parts, especially after they're 25 years old, learned that lesson the hard way with an old Mitsubishi starion
@@Mohamedali-ot8yn Hey I'm her brother, I'm going through her old comments and checking up on them. She had passed away last year from COVID and this has been my way to cope. From what I remember, she got the car for around $3500 USD
In all seriousness, If I had the funds I would buy some of those cars and put them in storage to wait for the 25-year rule to come in to play, bring them over to the states and most likely make a decent amount of money off them even with the all the transfer fees. Also, I would keep some of my favorites too. Great video! Keep them coming.
Can we a minute to appreciate how clean Japanese jdm car dealers keep their cars and the mark 3 that he was talking about plus the Nissan 730 and the Mitsubishi eco at the first dealership.I wanted all those cars but here in America 😫😂😂
If you wanna slam gears and want something a little sport. Buy an s2000 or a Miata. And manual honda or acura is great to slam gears on with no negatives.
It’s amazing how the paint is perfect on all of these cars. I wish they would leave them alone so you could get a better ideal of the condition and life they’ve lived. You can see what almost 20 year old cars look like when you look in the wheel wells, underneath, or in the spots that cost too much to make nice for resale.
Man I loved my tour there. From 96-99. The racing and drifting was unreal. Had to be the best era for cars in Okinawa history. Seeing all these cars in full swing was special. No social media . It was hard to explain to my friends once I got back. I had a 85 skyline Gts t. It was red. Not to fast but cool to cruise around in ! Tks for a drift down memory lane. No pun intended !
My wife was based in Japan for some time and was able to get a beat up Skyline for like $6,000 in early 2010. We totally thought of importing it when her time for reenlistment offer was up but damn, all the time, import tax, logistics it was going to be roughly $30K when all said and done. The culture is very unique in Japan and if you get a change I defiantly suggest going. Unlike any wear in the world.
When I was on Okinawa in the early 80s I was told there was one stretch of "freeway" where you might get up to 60 mph...the island isn't really that long, roads were straight and heavily congested, so why anyone would own a Skyline is beyond me. I rented a car while there, a Corolla, and that was a fairly large car (with its 1.3 liter engine) and the only larger non-American car that I remember seeing was a Toyota Crown (known as the 1st generation Cressida in the U.S.) and a few Coronas.
It's not always about speed in a straight line. There's plenty of empty roads up north with a bunch of twisty's and elevation changes. I had a blast with my GTR and old Evo up there!
The main giveaway of whether or not its a genuine GT-R is the side repeater on the wing or fender if you're a yank. The regular Skyline has quite a long repeater light, the GT-R is way smaller.
I lived in Japan 8 years ago and purchased a 1993 Toyota Soarer TT for only like 320,000 yen with 2 year shaken. Came with rims, body kit and exhaust. It was an auto though but was super cheaper. I later sold it to a dealership for about 120,000 yen with a months shaken left.
Are you fucking stupid even if it's worth billions of yen its value would still be the same. It's not a stupid currency the representation of the value of the currency is just different.
I bought a JZA80 supra from Japan about 15 years ago. It was a low mileage, vgc vehicle, and cost me about 50% less than the equivalent UK spec supra. A bargain! Owned the car for 6 years then sold it on piston heads to a guy from Norway. Wish I had kept the car now as the resale prices have rocketted.
15 years into Canada. States 25 [ouch] Have a 1997 WRX JDM , just like the wagon, but in sedan style. Have a 04' Forester Cross Sports coming in, about 4 weeks out. Yes, it's a 5spd Turbo. Will have video on that soon! Nice cars over there! Cheers! Stumpr1
Lived in northern Japan for 3 years. Used cars are very cheap because you're considered trash if you own any car over 2 years old unless it's super-rare. I bought a 2 year old Prelude Si back in 1997 for $1700 but new it was $26000 (yen equivalent) 5-spd manual.
If I lived in japan I’d be car shopping every weekend. I want to be out there so bad... I’d love to own so many cars they have within the country’s position
So another thing with Dream Run is that the prices in the window are NOT always what the price for the cars. I tried to buy a Jimny from them about 5 months ago. The window price was about 59,000 yen (not including the jci). When I went to buy it they raised the price by 11,000 yen (not including the jci) the day I was going to buy it. So if you buy from them, just keep in mind that the price may not reflect what they are selling them for.
The WRX wagon is an STI just like the sedans. This particular one is a version 3. You can tell this because the front end is face lifted but the interior is from the version 1 and 2 🙂
The cars left sitting outside are usually because of the Japanese emission tests, I can't remember which one they test for but when they fail it costs more than the car is worth to the owner and most people because they can get a road legal one for around the same price.
Roro about 1500 container $3500 or more, just for shipping but then you have to have a registered importer waiting to receive it plus the window sticker isnt the out the door price. 35万 is $3500ish 125万 would be $12500 ish then taxes etc. Also he doesnt even touch on the shady side where underbody etc are rusted out. And finally most of the cars have been beat, these flybynight fanbois get into one and thats when everything starts breaking and the real cost appears
Bro i look foward too seeeing your content during this strange times, i dont understand how you have a low sub count. I am sure you are gonna blow up!!!!
Thanks for the video walk thru. I did the same thing on Okinawa back in the early 2000s all the time but I am amazed at how expensive all of these cars have become since then. Most of these same cars were going for $2000-$6000.
Glad to know I'm not getting ripped off in the uk, 10k + for a high spec s chassis and about the same in japan, kinda defeats the point of importing imho
@@CaptTwo6 you do realise you're paying top dollar for 20-year old cars with all the problems that comes with? and most need major mods to actually be fast/cool
@@socalguy829 i mean u do realise everyone is like that when doing something they love. It's like sneaker heads paying thousands for shoes when they can buy any shoes. Like hypebeasts people paying thousands for expensive clothing for when they can get any shirt. Like when women can get any purse or bag but they want a fancy smancy one from LV.
socalguy829 so you saying any Japanese cars need mods to be cool. Don’t think so. I never would do mods to my dream car Evo V and it’s pretty fast compared to average cars. Some cars are cooler when stock (and even more expensive)
Yeah more because American importers buy the market empty for cheap and sell them for horrendous prices. Just to sit on dealership yards gettin rusty because there isn’t an actual need for all these. 10 - 15k is okay for a Evo V but I just hope they don’t go up to 20 or even 30... people hopefully miss out on evos. It would be so sad if they just get trashed like skys and supras, so you only option of optaining a good one is to pay a terrible price. PLEASE AMERICA DONT RUIN THAT FOR THE REST OF US
Not too far from Camp Foster there. Spent two years in Okinawa myself, 06-08'. Those cars at Music Lab have always been there. They used to have a blue and black R34 GTR out front for a while. Quick question, are those boys still street racing in front of Kadena AFB at night? Not saying Music Lab but there were a group of people that used to meet up on Friday and Saturday nights at midnight and hold drag races. Good times.
I'm wondering if going to NZ or Australia might solve the problem too, as I was told they are also abundant in GT-R's (probably?), GTS-t's and their parts.

The R33 doesn’t have a tittle so they won’t sell it. Plus if they did You can’t import cars with salvaged titles
I’d buy the evo if I had the chance
Thanks for the video walk thru. I did the same thing on Okinawa back in the early 2000s all the time but I am amazed at how expensive all of these cars have become since then. Most of these same cars were going for $2000-$6000.
Big fan of yours Cap! Another great content. Keep up the good work mate! Waiting for more cool JDM hunting videos. Take care!
Thanks for the support! More vids coming later this week...just need to get caught up on editing haha
Man I’m in love with that evo5 .... I have a evo 6 and I wish I could go to Japan to get some parts for it 😢
welp time to start saving up for a trip to Japan
Glad to know I'm not getting ripped off in the uk, 10k + for a high spec s chassis and about the same in japan, kinda defeats the point of importing imho
yooo the r33 gtr has my old wheels i had on my Soarer. Manaray racing wheels!!
Them wheels went up in value, even in the current condition on the r33 you can easily bring in 1500
For 70,000 USD, you can buy like 3, 4th gen Supra Turbo or 5 3rd gen Supra Turbo or those Land Cruisers
Just want to say man love your evo hopefully one day I can own one, keep up the great vids
Matt Wentworth Thanks man!
in min 5:33 i got so excited when i saw that r34
@3:50 theres an r34 skyline driving by lol.
That’s a beautiful gtr33, my dream car. Interesting how much cheaper they are in japan. I’d buy one if that was the case here in USA
Prices are getting crazy because of the usa :/
We all want what we can't have...I only saw these cars in Gran Turismo growing up but I fell in love
@@CaptTwo6 you do realise you're paying top dollar for 20-year old cars with all the problems that comes with? and most need major mods to actually be fast/cool
@@socalguy829 i mean u do realise everyone is like that when doing something they love. It's like sneaker heads paying thousands for shoes when they can buy any shoes. Like hypebeasts people paying thousands for expensive clothing for when they can get any shirt. Like when women can get any purse or bag but they want a fancy smancy one from LV.
socalguy829 so you saying any Japanese cars need mods to be cool. Don’t think so. I never would do mods to my dream car Evo V and it’s pretty fast compared to average cars. Some cars are cooler when stock (and even more expensive)
Yeah more because American importers buy the market empty for cheap and sell them for horrendous prices. Just to sit on dealership yards gettin rusty because there isn’t an actual need for all these. 10 - 15k is okay for a Evo V but I just hope they don’t go up to 20 or even 30... people hopefully miss out on evos. It would be so sad if they just get trashed like skys and supras, so you only option of optaining a good one is to pay a terrible price. PLEASE AMERICA DONT RUIN THAT FOR THE REST OF US
Not too far from Camp Foster there. Spent two years in Okinawa myself, 06-08'. Those cars at Music Lab have always been there. They used to have a blue and black R34 GTR out front for a while. Quick question, are those boys still street racing in front of Kadena AFB at night? Not saying Music Lab but there were a group of people that used to meet up on Friday and Saturday nights at midnight and hold drag races. Good times.
who is coming to japan with me?? AHAH i love japan
That r33 would be a sick project car
22:21 That Ignis Sport deserves some attention
I'm wondering if going to NZ or Australia might solve the problem too, as I was told they are also abundant in GT-R's (probably?), GTS-t's and their parts.
Look at these nice cars and then check out the traffic going by the road. All white box kei cars lol.
Hahha hard facts
Meanwhile in Bulgaria we drive Volkswagen GOLF from 1995 !
Good car (y) !
very good content brother, honestly one of my favorite channel thank you so much.
[DJ NADJIB - Beatz] Thanks man that means a lot!
@@CaptTwo6 ❤, i hope you doing Ok during this special situation.
@@CaptTwo6 that would be me stationed there, hell I still like to roam local used car lots when there closed, it's how I found my Z, and my taco, that's my kind of simple fun, lol
You can get a lexus sc300/ Toyota soarer in the us for less than 5k and a mk3 supra for less than 5k also
Dealerships are robbing you. Those rides cost way less in the auctions
No because you won't see these cars in an American auction.
Look inside the sterling wheel is on the other side. You wouldn’t find that in the USA.
@@JcLazy1 I meant japanese auctions, not US
@@voevodineu show me, I deal with USS and many others regularly, been here for 20 years. Maybe if you buy an R rated 2.5 or less grade beat to crap 180k on the clock model
@@JSpecGC8 Sorry for being so russian, I will provide link from russian site. On 6:30 this video features toyota soarer for 1450000 yen. 3 days ago a soarer was sold at JU Aichi auction with the total grade of 4 (B/B) for 474000 yen, which is 3 times cheaper. Here is the link www.carwin.ru/japanstats/see/273468699
Sti version 3 wagon,they also came in a limited run of 555 in a dark blue colour cant remember exact name to commemorate the wrc back in 1997.my mate had one 20 years ago and it was a weapon,especially back then.
He’s definitely not gonna lie
😅😅
@11:22 that Evo V GSR is clean and very nice if I had the money is but it.
$15k for the r33. Needs $10k minimum put into it.
15k for a r33 is not so cheap in Germany i Can find r33 for like 6000-7000
@@Nihil1265 maybe a non turbo one, but for a r33 gtst in a normal condition you need around 15k euros
@@sleep9275 shit i just checked and it start at 12K euro last time i finded some at like 8000-9000
@@Nihil1265 yeah some years ago you could import a r33 gtr for like 15,000€ and gtst's where around 8k (the whole import, so the price in japan was like 3k I think!)
I dont think the prices will ever go down from now on, even silvias are around 15k.
Sadly I was to young back in the days to buy cars :D
Imagine being convinced that it’s a GTR by looking at the “GTR” stickers and badges on it. Dude didn’t even check for a whole entire front drivetrain before he convinced himself it’s a gtr.
Wow that evo 5 is Exactly what I want to finance within the next few years. Hoping the prices don’t skyrocket
Is evo 5 really that expensive in the US? Need to refinance? Can't buy it cash? What's the price? Just asking no offense.
Thaaaattt evo though 😭😭😭
Frr
So... We're not gonna talk about the pre-modified Prius next to the Evo?
I remember when all those cars where 2-6k in the early 2000's
In japan??
@@stephenstrickland6149 Yes
Even the JZX100? They ended production in 2001 hard to see them going for 6K still new
The rims on the budget Gtr look very similar to Pauls Skyline from 2f2f.
