Japfest 2024!! The BIGGEST JDM Show!! 4K

[@Beardyman.]

Thank you for videoing my RB320 Olly! It's a limited edition built as a tribute to the late Richard Burns (UK rally driver). 👍

[@OllyRoss]

I see! It all makes sense now! Was it built by Subaru?

[@Beardyman.]

@OllyRoss, yeah it was based off the Impreza STI '07, but handed over to Prodrive for the full works in making it into the RB320. 👍

[@FaithlessEmoRacing]

0:52 that me filming your cars for my video! lol. Then I pop up again at 19:38 with my car!

[@OllyRoss]

Haha! No way! A little BTS of your video! Appreciate you featuring my S2000 right at the beginning of your video!

[@danielbosch7082]

Lovely video! Greetings from the guys from the Netherlands😁

[@OllyRoss]

Aaaayyy! I hope the trip over was worth it? Very cool to see cars from the mainland over here!

[@liamthompson3114]

Was really good to talk to you again! Look forward to your stand next year and will definitely book the ticket before it books up again 😂

[@OllyRoss]

Thanks for coming over for a chat! Yeah, I reckon next year is going to sell out even faster as everyone who missed out this year will be on it!

[@nugennath]

Amazing video man!

[@OllyRoss]

Appreciate it bro! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

[@user-ks4fg6eg2o]

New mods you could do is getting some aluminum pedals like the ones on the dc5 and also red carpet like the premier edition

[@OllyRoss]

I already have the Mugen pedals and I quite like the contrast between the red JDM mats and the black carpet

[@ChrisDC5TypeR]

Thanks for having us on the stand 👍 shame didn’t get to chat your a busy guy 😅definitely be going next year.

[@OllyRoss]

No worries at all, thanks for wanting to be on the stand! Sorry that I was all over the place! Definitely need to figure out a better way of trying to do everything. You already know that I will have the stand again next year So see you there!

[@aleshop3923]

Thanks Oli always comes through with the japfest videos 🤜🏻😂Missed the show this time round the ep3 is a bit poorly so we couldn’t make it but feel like I did go after watching. noice 👍🏻

[@OllyRoss]

You know that I have to! Haha! Glad that you feel like it was a good coverage of the show. I missed loads of cars because the wind meant people were over it earlier than usual

[@hunterbeatbilly9836]

Not only this dude was able to help jim caddy film, but he have a very good taste for tuner cars as well! ❤

[@OllyRoss]

I will take that! 💪🏻

[@Ajone5002]

For 15:31 I’m close mates with the owner, don’t do a vid with him, as that’s all he’ll talk about for the rest of the year 😂

[@davidfreeskier311]

Don’t expose me like that archie 🤣

[@Ajone5002]

@@davidfreeskier311 I’m saving our chats and future conversations 😂

[@OllyRoss]

Hahahaha! Sooooo good!

[@primer_rs]

Still yet to find a video featuring my A90, you were so close to me! I had the red A90 at the end of the GR-Zoo stand with the Huge single exit.

[@OllyRoss]

Sorry for missing your car man! There are so many cars that I don’t have the time to show absolutely everything. This is definitely just a whistle stop tour of the show, and I still missed loads of cars

[@gambit_toys6554]

Awesome cars 😊

[@OllyRoss]

For sure!

[@lucybrooke3412]

The DC5 with the Buddy club bonnet is boosted too. 400+ high boost. It's my other half's car. It will be at summer action day, JDM and Forge at Castle Combe.

[@OllyRoss]

What a spicy machine! That is good to know for the future as a may bump into the car again 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@adamcatley4784]

Intro goes hard af 🔥

[@OllyRoss]

Thanks man! Appreciate it!

[@OTHERJ4M33L]

Got my evo in at 22:52. Colour is bmw san marino blue if you were wondering 😊

[@OllyRoss]

Oh sick! It looks sooo good.

[@OTHERJ4M33L]

@OllyRoss *did look good. Got rear ended on the motorway whilst in standstill traffic and it's been written off unfortunately. 😢

[@OllyRoss]

@@OTHERJ4M33L Nooooooooo!! That is such a shame!! I am sorry man!

[@OTHERJ4M33L]

@OllyRoss gutted would be an understatement but it is what it is unfortunately. Thanks for capturing it in your vid.

[@JordzyBrev]

Such a sick day out, bank account wasn’t happy 😂

[@OllyRoss]

Hahaha! Much purchasing happened then?! Haha

[@JordzyBrev]

@@OllyRoss mainly fuel & food 😂

[@bradjordan6984]

that Liberty Walk S15 😍

[@OllyRoss]

Insane! Such a crazy kit!

[@Aejaky]

The gold badges were optional extras on Lexus I think, might have been same on honda maybe?

[@OllyRoss]

Yeah, I had heard of that for Lexus. Let us see if anyone else comes back with an answer!

[@carsandtrucks4life818]

Where was this event? And when is the next one ❤

[@OllyRoss]

This was at Silverstone race circuit and the next one will be next year around the same time I imagine.

[@EC_Hondy]

you didn't go to the street elite section 😓I was only ep3 to make it in haha, amazing video ol bro like usual

[@OllyRoss]

I don't even know where that bit was. So many cars left early too so I missed loads! I was talking to loads of people this year so I wasn't walking around the whole day. Glad you still enjoyed the video though.

[@EC_Hondy]

@@OllyRoss all good bro the limitR stand was awesome

[@k3lloggzzracing577]

those ep3’s with the “dc5 style” bumper could also pass for the mugen CL7 Euro R bumpers 👀👀

[@OllyRoss]

You aren't the first one to say that. I wonder whether they used that for inspiration instead?

[@k3lloggzzracing577]

@@OllyRoss Could be, almost identical 👍🏾

[@fastlane2914]

You overlooked the fk8s. No “rad” ones? 😅

[@OllyRoss]

I missed so many cars because loads early in the afternoon so I am sure there are loads of sick ones I would have filmed. I hardly saw any FK8's (for more FK8's check the second half of my previous video)

[@lmentsofsound8016]

I've just bought an ep3.

[@OllyRoss]

Welcome to the club!!

[@lmentsofsound8016]

@OllyRoss Thank you. Been after another Honda since my Dc2 died

[@Synept]

not enough focus on ep3s would have been good if you could have spoken to owners on your stand about specs

[@OllyRoss]

This video is one of the ones that is less EP3 focused and more about the entire show. If I was to spend time with owners talking about their cars, I wouldn’t have time to see the rest of the show and all the people that have no interest in the EP3 wouldn’t watch either. Videos like this, that are more general, are to try and increase my reach beyond just the EP3 community as that is what I need to do to grow the channel.

[@DanH-u3f]

Is it really called Japfest? You fanboy over Japanese cars and car culture, but not on its people.

[@OllyRoss]

Yeah, the show is called Japfest. I didn't name it but this show is just a car show so I don't know what to tell you

[@chistarg4190]

If the promoters love the Japanese car culture they should love the "Japanese culture" and not name it something offensive and as a video content creator condone it with a response of "I don't know what to tell you." and have a big title graphic of the word "JAPfest"

[@OllyRoss]

It would be amazing to see Japanese culture at these events too. It is a dream of mine to visit Japan to explore the culture, food and experiences that the country has to offer beyond just the cars. I am unsure on what I can do in this situation, I am just using their official logo on a video about me attending their event. There will be hundreds of videos like this coming out over the next few weeks from others who also attended the show. Just like the various years before. In the UK, the word "Jap" is only used as a shortening of "Japanese" in the same way we use "UK" instead of "United Kingdom" for example. There is nothing negative that goes along side that.

[@darthvacation9299]

​@@chistarg4190 Its only offensive to muppets on the internet, not actual people, esp Japanese. No obe cries about the 'Brit' awards being offensive & its exactly the same. Context my dude, its a thing - though maybe its a tad beyond your brain power?

[@DanH-u3f]

@@darthvacation9299 When is Whitey Fest in the UK?

[@chistarg4190]

I hope you understand the word "Jap" is extremely offensive. I only clicked your video because of the offensive name. I am a full Japanese 4th generation in the USA and own a custom car.

[@OllyRoss]

I can only apologise for this. The cultural differences between the UK and USA seem to make this look bad from the US perspective. There is absolutely no negative connotations meant by this as the word “Jap” here in the UK doesn’t carry any malicious intent to my understanding. It could be worth contacting the event organisers to express your concerns with the title and their branding
