Daily Driven 400R, Daikoku PA, and Hidden Shops: Car Spotting in Japan

[@LarryChenPhoto]

Thank you guys for watching. If you guys want a signed print for your wall I print all of them myself from my large format Canon printer larrychenprints.com/

[@UguisuAnko12]

This is one of the most raw Japanese car culture I've ever seen on internet and hopefully I'd be able to experience this in real life someday when I get there. This video really shows what true passion and dedication is. No hype, no clout chasing, no brag & rights, just pure joy and connectivity between you and the machine. It really engages you to drive with confidence and put a genuine smile on your face as an enthusiast. It's not always about chasing for a high power or speeds, it's all about enjoying its prime state of the car itself, experiencing its raw authentic vibe, it connects you to its era. Thank you for posting this, Larry!! This is so beautiful!!! It's so inspiring, refreshing, and enjoying to watch a content like this!!! And also, it shows that you don't need a car or a fancy car in order to be a car enthusiast but rather, you just need a real love and appreciation and that is enough to consider yourself as one enthusiast!! When you're passionate about your thing, you'll eventually learn and figure it out!!! This thing is a form of our expression as an individual!!! Well done!!!

This is my favorite comment this year.

[@MrBrandoncal]

Big congrats on the SEMA Influencer award!

[@DIARRHEA-PANIC]

Condolences on being referred to as an influencer 🙏 😔

[@Kuya__micah__soler]

Yesssss same same congrats Larry u da best and my favorite ❤🔥

[@user-oj7co5wm8g]

Hah, yeah Sema is mostly run by “older” guys so influencer just means “Internet personality” to them.

[@joachimtaverne5035]

Cool to see two of the biggest contributors to "Speedhunters" when I discovered it simply having a chat and enjoying car culture together :)

[@reycaballero2462]

I've been an avid reader on speedhunters since its early years. Way before I could put a face on the names that were responsible on bringing everyone online the joy and inspiration of Japanese carcilture. Thanks Dino, Lary and everyone in Speedhunters for many years of you guys sharing your car culture passion!!!

[@jeremysmith876]

I appreciate the “raw” unscripted visits. It gives the viewer a truer experience versus the setup videos from other KZbinrs channels, which I enjoy but this video is by the best one from Japan I’ve seen. It represents a grass roots side of the Japanese car culture in my opinion.

[@madcarman7]

Loving the Japan content and also congrats on the award Larry! :)

[@ThatillKidJ]

Thank you Larry Chen for existing

[@pab3783]

Larry, this is one of your best videos.

[@kamargee9680]

The Legnum was amazing. I was so blesses to have lived in Japan from 1996 to 2006. That was the golden era!!

[@NaksRifati]

Awesome Legnum. Also a Super VR-4, one of 250 ever build as I remember

[@motogeee510]

Chen channel is just amazing for a true car enthusiast! An it's cool we are all along for the ride.

[@nobass_stub1394]

Probably the my favorite LC vid to date... up close, raw, and all natural car folk and folklore god cars in the wild.

[@mautsukuda]

Japan is just a different world man. I may be biased, but I freaking love that country and its people.

[@richardfarmer6570]

Thanks for all the great Japanese content Larry and congratulations on winning influencer of the year.

[@chrisfyb]

I say it almost every time, but your Japan videos are ALWAYS some of the best. The appreciation and dedication that japanese tuners and shops have is like no other. Someday i'll get myself to Daikoku and do a tour of Japan.

[@miguelcruz5814]

More like this please, raw footage just walking around japan, awesome

[@sr707ca8]

I love how japan shows us how car enthusiast can get together with out donuts in parking lot or burn outs to rek everything

[@Starbord77]

Cool to see that japan still has their cool cars

[@ramonjacinto6717]

congrats on the award Larry!

[@KamranNamdarpour]

Awesome video, so nice to see you both together, thank you!!!

[@bencreatesthings]

I can't believe this isn't trending on the front page of KZbin. So incredibly cool.

[@obsidian....]

I'm so happy that guy drives his 400R 🙏🙏🙏

[@tonypepperoni3476]

That Millennium Jade R35 GT-R is amazing!! 😍

[@chasebrunner]

I Love This Video Larry Chen So Glad I Just Got A 240sx S13 Not Long Ago Posting Videos Of It On My KZbin Channel

[@AyaxRo]

Larry keeps knocking it out of the park with excellent content. No extra candy on top like most of whats out today. Just the subject matter because at the end of the day its what matters. Thank you.

[@tomanderson6335]

15:31 - The Legnum was the wagon version of the Galant, and was available with all of the sedan's powertrains, including the 2.5L twin-turbo 6A1 V6 and AWD in that Super VR-4. Heck, if you guys had spotted a Legacy GT-B this video would have hit the late-'90s JDM hot wagon trifecta!

[@octagon_009]

Larry with the fire content! Love everything you do Larry!!

[@marybetheby5184]

Thanks for introducing me to the wild Japanese car culture Dino!Been following you on Speed hunters since 2011.😎👍

[@dino_dc]

Thank you man!

[@FRIEDWINGZ17]

This video was sick! So many good cars. Glad yall took the time to shoot them. That 400R was beautiful. Such a clean example. Right place right time. Keep up the great work bringing us awesome car content like this Larry!

[@NotRedLine]

Spotted my ST-205 chilling at FC Autosource! Made my day.

[@Mrskyline25t]

And an evo brick!

[@---l---]

Appreciate all the work that goes into this. Thank you

[@lucaorru6872]

[@DavelyDriven]

My Subi sat in that lot at some point….so proud

[@josephmatuszak3855]

I want to express how awesome this all is.... but I can only find one word. Epic.

[@terrencehavens3048]

the guy on the motorcycle definitely took some pics of the posters i had as a kid....as a baby....those shots were crazy

[@Mohamed-vm8uf]

love seeing Dino

[@LueXiong10]

Congrats on the Content Creater award Larry!

[@UguisuAnko12]

I can see the true passion of a car enthusiast through those pics man!! Great job as always!!!

[@paulmarsdensr1095]

A great video brother. I own a 2020 base model WRX/ STI. I'm never selling it. Japanese cars rock baby. Oh yeahhhh 😀.

[@garlenseong38]

Bucket list place to go definitely japan... the car culture, food, culture/history...

[@edwardfairbanks5758]

Good stuff. Definitely love the Japan shoots! You always get some awesome content out there.

[@FerdinandReisch]

I love seeing when Dino posts up day photos of Daikoku, this video, really captures that atmosphere as well. I can just imagine, sitting on the park bench, sipping my boss coffee, in the shadow of the overpass, hearing legendary sounds all around me.

[@Jeffmackens]

Saw that same car at Daikoku a few years ago…. Crazy!

[@RMmotorsports1000]

Congratulations on your award at sema, it was well deserved!

[@jgerry2002]

Love these videos. I've lived in Japan for a couple years and still discovering the endless car culture here. Were you at Daikoku PA on weekend during the day or was this during the week? I am not far from Yokohama and have driven the Bayshore route (Wangan) many times when picking up or dropping off folks at Haneda and sometimes from Narita with traffic to avoid the mess on the Tomei. Totally agree with the comment about "raw" car culture. You don't have to be at the extremes to enjoy it here. I am a "import" guy that has owned BMWs and Minis but appreciate the passion that folks have here for literally anything on four wheels or two. Japanese car culture is probably the most common way folks express individuality here within a society that is very conformist.

[@davidboyce6427]

Love the white 5th Gen Prelude 👍

[@AdinSLaboy]

Thanks so much Larry you kill the blog 💯👍🙏💪

[@YungRamo]

rank 1 car photography right here

[@raivism5682]

Amazing content and video quality, thank you!

[@neilperry2224]

If you're talking about spoilers on spoilers look at the 80s Porsche's from Rinspeed, bbi, Sbarro , Kreme etc. Pajero Evo rare vehicle , you should get one Chen San. We had the pajero but sold as a Shogun Evo and it was ordered via Mitsubishi Motors, we had that huge long roof too.

[@dylanhammerstein3059]

Car heaven 😍😍😍

[@BarringtonSmythe]

Excellent as always brother!

[@dharp65]

I met Dino years ago with my friend Paul. Dino is such a cool guy. Paul ended up buying Dave's R34.

[@Brunze]

1:30 literally my dream car

[@zeus.edwards2662]

Always wanted to see some video on advance shop

[@Jeremy-bc2sz]

congrats on the award larry!

[@Sn00pyb0ttz82GTI]

They have the sickest vanilla fudge song playing in the mooneyes shop

[@ScarKnoturbed]

Magnificient 💎💎

[@twinturbo1989]

What I would give to have Dino as a tour guide through Japanese car culture, and Japanese culture in general...

[@skatnnofx]

Yoooo! Who is driving that Kei Miura Phillies Red Porsche, "Philadelphia" ? Whoever you are, you've officially been given some authentic "Brotherly Love" 😘 Gorgeous whip!

[@dair919]

Japanese car culture is so cool.

[@zeus.edwards2662]

Dino is a boss !!!!

[@dino_dc]

haha thank you!

[@fullsendrecovery8041]

Love from Australia my brother, keep up the awesome work ❤️ Hardest working KZbinr in this space by far 💪💯 Congrats mate

[@Ungovernable_Schizo]

Glad to see an LFA and 400R in its natural habitat, and not imported somewhere around the world.

[@YeahItsYourBoyG]

awhh mannn theres something about seeing some classic american land yachts sitting in japan that just seems so cool..

[@djnes2k7]

What taillights we’re on that f10 bmw at around the 4:45 mark? I need those….. today

[@UncleManuel]

"They have no idea. We're going in raw!" -Larry Chen, 2022 😂😂😁😁😇😇

[@ipaulosan]

I'm an old guy now. I was part of the culture that started lowering and fixing up Japanese 4 bangers in the mid-70s. This was the switch from big V8 muscle cars as a by-product of the gas rationing during the early 70s. There was a time when you could only buy gas on days whether your license plate ended in an even or odd number. During those times I owned a 510,710, Celica, and a Capri, ahh those were fun days. Question, to all you JDM guys, I thought I heard on a video that there is a company out there somewhere that will take a right-hand drive say R34 and convert it into a left-hand drive, is this true?

[@morganendean8539]

Love the video. Would love the know the end scene song!! I love

[@fulltang1]

Raw vlog style content from your POV in Japan would be amazing Larry!

[@madmike5144]

This so cool video...

[@mobilespeed]

24:28 - I bet nobody noticed that Dino parked the GTR beside the old Keiichi Tsuchiya's Kei-Office R32 demo car....

[@ckaspersen]

Just love everything about your videos. May I ask what song is playing in the intro? Its dope.

[@AliasHSW]

Wish they, Advance, talked a bit about the red NSX on rack in the background

[@boricuaenOK]

It's funny and interesting the obsession he has with stock air boxes.

[@aureoamone3258]

The 400R is sick, we have one in Mozambique nr 02 in a blue color

[@TheWisdom3]

That Liberty walk Mitsuoka Orochi,. crazy.

[@dblackledge4393]

Love a skyline

[@cheesepizza87]

Japanese motorbike Larry 🤘🏽🏍

[@godzillaxred]

Where can I find the pic at 6:46? I'd love to have that as my wallpaper (if that's allowed)

[@DIARRHEA-PANIC]

You need to do a lot more Japan coverage ✌️😑👍

[@dair919]

How many 400R skylines were made... Less than or more than the limited R34 Z-Tune?

[@d_k_n]

A Z-Tune would be the most expensive if you ever saw one for sale. It’s unobtainable.

[@thecoreelementsmoto]

maybe I should kit out my Harley like that camera bike!

[@killintime1311]

That blue supra at the very end....Mk4 4Life

[@COBRATEM]

@larrychen What is the name of your [outro] track? Thanks in advance

[@abcdLeeXY]

Jdm content in Japan ❤

[@olavofernandes7286]

Jdm = Japanese domestic market, cars that are built in Japan only, right hand drive etc

[@robdettlaff7841]

What is the white car at 7;57?

[@MrCamCam733]

[@jmhatch88]

Anybody has some feedback on FC Auto source? Looks interesting. Thanks in advance

[@maliq4746]

[@wheelheart]

Does anyone know that motorcycle photographer? Is he have a site or social media?

[@ELAZER]

Where can I see pictures from the motorcycle photographer?

[@novembergarage8547]

Yeah I wish he would have given his name!!

[@mehguhtron]

14:29 did we run out of beauty rolls 😂

[@INSERTNAMEjoe]

A true 400r came up for sale on Craigslist of all things localy. It was asking 49,999 for the car and it had just been imported. Needless to say i tried to convince my uncle with no kids why this was a business deal not a car. He said no way and i was only 22 so i missed that opportunity.

[@KuroRyuu86]

Mitsubishi Legnum vr4 is basically a Station wagon Galant. Just a Nicer EVO :P ....When i mean nicer, I mean Luxury

[@blairread4414]

Import to Australia 😅🤣😂....Nz had them all..Finding a tidy one to clean up / slim pickings. vr4 Legnum Wagon 5spd in purple ...👉

[@IamMotionMedia]

Did u catch the name of that Harley photographer or an Insta handle?

[@ahmed9707]

Can someone help me figure the name of the song in the very beginning ?
