Running driving R34 GT-R to bare chassis in 6 hours with Garage Yoshida | Capturing Car Culture

The Nissan GT-R is a legendary car, but it comes with its own list of issues, one of which is a major factory rust issue that lies between the metal of the shock towers and some surrounding areas. Garage Yoshida has manufactured their own shock towers that are superior and more resistant to moisture. Watch as Garage Yoshida disassembles Larry's R34 GT-R in under 6 hours and shows you all the factory issues to look out for.

Wow. What an absolute master and professional at his craft. I’ve been a mechanic 25 years and I’m fairly widely respected and I pride myself on doing every little detail to picture perfect factory repairs, where if it goes right and it should, it’s difficult to tell you even worked on the vehicle, spent first 13 years after market general tech, did almost everything except transmissions, then, moved on to the GM dealership for 11-1/2 and absolutely prided myself in tacking every training I could, that’d even kinda widen my abilities, and being as accurate and professional as possible, but, these two couple is beyond comprehension, this just can’t be done. Not two people, not never, this gentleman is the absolute most impressive not even a technician, and master because he take such supreme respect for the craft it’s mind blowing. Well done doesn’t do it justice. From what i can seen.

Their speed and orchestration are of course impressive but I was more amazed at how clean Yoshida-San stayed throughout the teardown! 😆 It's so cool to see Yoshida-San using a Celette bench, which shows his commitment to doing repairs to the highest standard.

This is Caviar-Level of automotive content. Absolutely magnificent. I was glued to the screen the entire time. Yoshida-san and his wife are exceptionally skilled people.

Any time I start watching a Larry Chen video it's a automatic like from me.... I know it will be fire

We got a full blown Larry Chen video on this channel and a very good and satisfying one to watch too. Keep up with the great content. And as a flat rate Tech myself Mr. Yoshida's work ethic is great to watch!
