550hp GT-R Moto... in a MINT 1972 Skyline!

Inside this gorgeous 1973 Nissan Kenmeri Skyline lies something mean... a single turbo'd RB26 that's barely breaking a sweat at 500 horsepower. And in a chassis as light as the Kenmeri, with 70s spec wheels and tire fitment, that means a whooooole lot of wheelspin. In the best way possible.

loving all the old school jdm cars!!!

[@vital577]

Soon 80s car will be old

[@WhereverHugo]

0:57 That moment when you see the background picture of your computer, which I chose on Larry's website. It's just so good!

[@johnmoser2689]

One of the most incredible skylines ever

[@boxedfender4810]

This car making me feel a type of way...

[@kifz1418]

Jealousy cz thats what im feeling

[@CDN296]

Love the merging of old School and the 90's powerhouse

[@johnmoser2689]

Definitely looks like a mini javelin But way cooler

[@AlphaMachina]

Like a Javelin meets a 1st Gen Celica.

[@p2ylock220]

I know right

[@andyka591]

Looks like Challenger to me

[@bigelk0]

john moser that’s the reason why I started to watch the video because it look like a javelin..

[@kevinbodman1011]

I effin love the fact that he drives it.

[@sandygarage3802]

Wow, such a nice car to see. Really well done. I remember seeing a silver celica of a similar era/year on a farm i worked at years ago. The car was used as a paddock basher😢. Sometimes the bonnet/hood was used to tow people behind the car. So glad to see the skyline in the video.

[@brilog69]

I had a 74 710 sedan with a L18 motor. I had a 5 speed from a 200sx. 1st gear down and it fit without mod. Your skyline is really Nice!!

[@vongdong10]

Oh man, bringing up the memories of the og burnyard. Hoonigan has never been the same since they used a different location. Miss seeing Nads come out and school everyone.

[@justdave100]

Oh my Lord, what a thing this is!!! I love it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@zamoragera13]

You have the best job Larry. Get to see all these cool cars and take pictures of these cars. Awesome !!!- 👍👍

[@NoMoney67]

I love the fact he actually drives this car and enjoys it. He also plans on tracking. 😉👍

[@Cheddar555]

That RS-Turbo in the back😍

[@kadirmohamedfaheem4518]

in love with all the skyline series!!

[@clintondavid525]

This is by far my favorite hoonigan channel. Killin it!

[@virgilarce]

Beautiful ! For me is perfect ! I love this lines 😍 Congratulations !

[@wademiyataki9221]

Nice! Awesome that it's a driver and not just a show queen.

[@MidnightMiata]

I saw this at Petersen earlier this year. Glad to see it gets driven!

[@jdmindustriesaustria]

This thing hangs in my livingroom in form of a poster and i love it

[@kevinhartley4521]

Awesome car. It sounds like has a home forever!

[@GasGearsGames]

That car gave me goose bumps all over, its so cool.

[@brenden8783]

Every episode is killer, so good. Loving it 🤙

[@isaacshively6705]

Those are my favorite wheels for classic JDM cars, if I ever get a 510 those are the wheels I'm gonna put on it

[@Pags222]

That R31 in the background tho 👀

[@jeanmiyu6904]

That´s R30 RS-turbo, bro.

[@dayzbelieveany1395]

jean Miyu gate keeping... if you’re gonna correct him don’t sound so pretentious

[@G34RH34D]

Such a beautiful car. This or an R33 would be my type of Skyline.

[@steampunkbadger1841]

Kenmary is one of my dream cars❤

[@refillz5281]

The forgotten skyline, which happens to be one of my favorites LOL. So many people don't know about this car.

[@eriksantoso1741]

How about c210 and 2 gen first prince skyline ? That also the forgotten skylines

[@user-pc2lx2vg5z]

綺麗な車です羨ましいです。日本から応援しています！

[@TheRetroRides]

Oh you weren't playing with that whole face melting JDM hotness. Got the chance to see this car at Historic J in Santa Monica (if anyone remembers that). Such a well turned out car (and the first Wild Cards car I ever saw).

[@Micharus]

I owned one of these when I was younger, the same model. Even stock they are a bit of a beast.

[@ZyzzNutss69]

@The Arkon oh yeah you butthurt?

[@grqmedia3489]

J. Stalin no one asked

[@RalphiNYCb3]

What a gorgeous machine. 😍

[@TheBigboi16]

[@johnmoser2689]

Nice inserts throughout very funny stuff

[@thex2051]

Absolute BEAST!!!

[@sajid1979]

What a beauty!

[@kramarkml]

That R31 in the background though, proper and clean af 👌

[@kikomartinez9062]

That's a gnarly Kenmeri, wow

[@S-Kidz]

This car is beautiful 😍

[@redeyerob2176]

Man this is perfection, from the multiple sets of wheels like the unobtainium nissan works watts, the only thing that would set it over the edge for me would be a L28 with the OS Giken twin cam head and itb's

[@jerrybillings3039]

*Those motors.. are things of beauty, but I'm we all know, they're over $30,000.. And then add the cost of whatever else you decide to do internally to the top or bottom end, plus labor if you don't have space/aren't mechanically inclined to put a motor together, which equals, well..I imagine an RB26 makes more practical sense.*

[@fastec5]

Have you seen that guy who made a custom DOHC head for the L28 by grafting 3 K20 heads together? Hard videos to find but I have it saved. Basically an L28 with VTEC and it sounds fucking gnarly.

[@nickfury1279]

@@fastec5 Datsunworks KN20 right?

[@frankyhouse837]

Great skyline

[@jaybury5760]

I love these body styles, of the Porsche too the 240z to the skyline to even the mark 1 mustangs. Is there a specific name for these body styles? Coupe 2+2 or 2+0 hardtop? I'm curious if there's lesser known bodies available for cheaper.

[@drumandbassking12345]

I did prefer his old design on this car, but what he’s done to it now looks mint

[@billweaver9982]

I never saw this beauty in victorville!

[@letsgobubblegum]

This car and Mighty Car Mod's fairlady Z should hang out.

[@raymonddon8875]

love it!

[@bgamesbmx9345]

The revving at the start of the video scared my cat 🥺

[@FH-ww8fr]

I 've never seen such a cool kenmery even in Japan!

[@jb3704]

Very nice!

[@Flaco7136]

Super nice bro I love it

[@iluvjollibee]

The engine Sound so good

[@shepdgc.og.soldier7732]

Thought it was an old EXP with that huge looking back end. Cool car.

[@danabray945]

Thats a Datsun 240k here in Australia, be lucky to find one now days though due to rusting away . Datsun (Nissan) didn't paint the inside if panels so any moisture got in the panel rusted out Used to mess around with datto's in the 90s.... 1000, 1200, 1600 , 180b , 200b ,240k , even a 120y...... good times

[@adi93209]

dat Kenmeri is lit af, props for the owner

[@charleschin2612]

I agree with the owner to drive it on the road it makes no sense in building something that special and park it to just look at keep driving them especially if they look that good and is road worthy for the road 👍👍

[@liquidamber]

ooooo love it...sooooo nice

[@Tigz09]

My dream car had the honour of seeing quite a few at LB Works in Nagoya this year I cried lol

[@Matty.Hill_87]

They just don't make them like they used to 😍

[@kaybevang536]

As a R34 /R32 GTR fan I like these older skylines even the non GTR skyline and the older 71 skyline

[@laParka777]

Great car and all but, that R30 tho. Sweet baby jingus! I demand coverage!...please.

[@tuchesampho2047]

In my opinion this is better, don't get me wrong the R30 is a thing of beauty too

[@benlotus2703]

Beautiful Car

[@emanh4keem_san420]

Skylineeee......*2step bangin'*

[@RumblesBettr]

emanh4keem _san i really cant understand why 2step is a thing.. it seems dumb blows shit up (sometimes) and sounds crappy. What am i missing. Guess im a simple man who drives v8s n/a i just cant wrap my head around why 2step is “cool”. Someone please explain

[@mikev2116]

Has that car ever been out at Magu AFB Ive Seen it there? I took pics and instantly recognized the rims. Soo Bad Ass!!! It was a few years ago. Im not a tuner I have A 68 Road Runner but GT-Rs Have always been one of my favorites!

[@joshdobson2737]

[@freeman7788]

[@melocitysolo9574]

The coolest thing in the world is "GT-R".

[@DaBoogie049]

One can see these every day, where are the original ones (surf line FTW)

[@jadajada405]

wow

[@cannongavinjr7166]

It really does look lik a 1970 AMC Javelin AMX

[@DAVID_BAGELS]

DJ PatMan!!

[@peppermaster1189]

Side note, the name Kenmeri was given to this beautiful car because of the characters in the commercial that were named Ken and Mary.

[@isaacshively6705]

It reminds me a lot of a Datsun 610

[@logiccreations2721]

The 710 hard top and the 810 2 door as well

[@daviddurkee1960]

Looks like a 70's Mazda RX-4 coupe. Lovely body on the skyline, but I don't get the "let's put skinnier tires on the wheels than normal so the rims stick out" thing.
