A Day of Drifting and Fun with Nikko and Adam LZ

I'm thrilled to have had the opportunity to drive alongside Nikko, a talented driver from Japan, at the Ebisu circuit. This was my first time driving on this track, and I was excited to experience its unique characteristics. Nikko's car, an R33 Nissan Skyline, was a beauty to behold, with its sleek design and powerful engine. As we prepared to hit the track, I couldn't help but feel a sense of skepticism. Would I be able to keep up with Nikko, or would I struggle to find my footing on this unfamiliar circuit?

As we began to drive, I quickly realized that my initial doubts were unfounded. Nikko's car was a dream to drive, and he expertly guided me through the track, teaching me how to handle its unique characteristics. We started with some basic drills, getting used to the suspension and handling of the car. The R33's oil-over-spring setup proved to be an excellent choice, allowing us to fine-tune our settings for optimal performance.

One of the key components that I was interested in trying out was Nikko's factory-installed knuckles, which he had paired with extended lower control arms. These modifications gave the car a very smooth and consistent ride, and I could see why Nikko had chosen them. We also experimented with different settings for the suspension, working to find the perfect balance between stability and agility.

As we continued to drive, I was impressed by the precision and control that Nikko brought to the track. His experience and skill were evident in every corner of the circuit, and I found myself getting more and more comfortable behind the wheel. We even took Sam's R32 Nissan Skyline for a spin, which was a blast. The car handled incredibly well, and we were able to maintain a smooth pace throughout.

One of the highlights of the day was getting to experience Japan culture firsthand. Nikko is a local who speaks English, making it easy for us to communicate and share our passion for cars. He's also got his own YouTube channel, where he posts footage of his driving adventures, including my runs in the R33. I'm really stoked to have had the chance to meet him and learn from him.

As we took a break to grab some food at a local ramen spot, I couldn't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to experience this unique culture. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, and I enjoyed chatting with Nikko about everything from cars to Japanese culture. It's clear that he's passionate about sharing his knowledge and experiences with others.

After lunch, we decided to check out a local garage that specialized in modifying Japanese cars. Unfortunately, it turned out that the garage was closed on Wednesdays, which meant that we wouldn't be able to get our wheels modified as planned. However, Nikko took me on a tour of the nearby Ebisu circuit, showing me some of its hidden gems and sharing his expertise on how to navigate its twists and turns.

As we pulled up to the final destination – a small ramen shop – I couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. It had been an incredible day of drifting and fun with Nikko, and I was grateful for the opportunity to experience it all. We enjoyed some delicious ramen and conversation, taking the time to appreciate each other's company.

In the end, our adventure came to a close, but not before we shared a few laughs and memories. As I reflect on the day's events, I'm reminded of just how much I love sharing my passion for cars with others. Whether it's driving through the streets or exploring new tracks, there's always something new to discover and learn.

And as I look around at the beauty of the Japanese countryside – from the Ebisu circuit to the local ramen shops – I'm struck by the unique culture that makes this country so special. From the food to the cars, it's all part of a larger experience that's both fascinating and rewarding.

For me, there's no better feeling than getting behind the wheel of a car, especially one as iconic as Nikko's R33 Nissan Skyline. As I drive through the twists and turns of the Ebisu circuit, I feel a sense of excitement and thrill that's hard to match. It's not just about the speed or power – it's about the connection between driver and machine, the flow of adrenaline and focus.

And as I look back on our adventure today, I'm reminded that there's always more to learn, more to discover. Whether it's trying out new settings for my suspension or exploring different cars on the track, every experience is an opportunity to grow and improve.

So until next time, when I'll be looking forward to sharing another exciting adventure with Nikko and Adam LZ – cheers!

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: ensup guys this morning two hour drive instead of a 20 minute drive instead of had an episode where you're heading to Nikko circuit and my laptop in my hand cuz my hot spots getting slow and I still gotta get this video up and we're gonna whip the r33 hopefully not run out of gas because it is running kind of low and we're gonna head over to Nikko circuit to do some special stuff look at that mountain view you guys can't see it this fog is crazy it's actually very hard to drive it so dense I never had to pump my own gas here so struggling a bit trying to figure it out but I managed to just press buttons until I got it to work so we're good thought it was gonna be late I had to make a quick stop at a rest stop because I'm like very very very tired I need to get some coffee I didn't see much but anyway to give you a little bit more context before we get there behind this trip when we were at that d1 FIA event we met a guy named Sam who was really trying to get us to come out to Nikko because I guess that's where he drives a lot with oka Sean and we were all gonna go but it wound up being a little bit more expensive to rent the car and get like gas and tyres and track admission so it wound up that other guys are hanging that Ebisu and I still wanted to take advantage of this opportunity because how often you get to say you got to drive oka John's s 15 that's pretty sick at Nico a large reason of why I'm able to do this today right now though is because of sponsors on my videos like the company ring if you guys aren't familiar with ring they are the company that makes those sick video doorbells like the one that I have where you can see here and talk to people when they come to your door from all over the world they got HD video two-way audio and you can access it all from your phone super easy super easy to install it's a really really really cool company and they have a lot of other cool stuff like we have some of their floodlight cameras - they're like motion activated and then it's all integrated through the same app but for me like I said before it's really really convenient either when I'm away or when I'm in the garage if I want to see who's at the house if a packages there if I need someone to grab a package honestly probably one of the best things I've gotten for the house this year it has saved a lot of headache as a subscriber they've given me a special offer for you guys it is a video doorbell and one of their floodlight cameras which come in their starter kit everything you need to start building sick ring security around your home all you have to do is go to ring calm /lz once again just ring calm /lz and i just want to remind you guys that like i really appreciate when you guys support these companies to support me through these videos cuz like i said they make opportunities like this possible and when you guys are supporting them they continue to choose to work with me and support me so in addition to thinking ring for sponsoring this video i want to thank you guys because me being able to be out here and do all this cool stuff it's really unbelievable and I'm insanely lucky and I'm trying to seize every opportunity I can fill in the coolest content do the coolest things and just have fun so alright now we're gonna go to Nikko oh man I'm tired the good thing is we've got the magical coin this coin right here 500 purchased une drink maybe even 2 depending on how expensive the drink you want is even though I got it x-rayed I think my wrist might still be like fractured or something cuz it still gives me like really sharp pain this is your typical rest stop I really know what I'm gonna get is this replica lying cool we shall try cafe mocha with cinnamon topping hopefully that'll do the trick is that a video of it being made because that's kind of cool I don't know I think it is that's hilarious do you tell them tired feet tall I believe that is that mine no it's going down one that's mine look at that quite literally the best rest stop latte I've ever had in case you want cinnamon topping I'll let you guys know which rest stop this is to that rest stop I don't know say that word it's got the best coffee and the best r33 in all of this rest stop a couple others in this car pretty cool if you haven't noticed I'm very much less self-conscious of vlogging in public when I'm in foreign countries mainly just because I can kind of like pass off as that stupid American so it probably makes for better videos that kind of sucks that I feel that way back home I'm not perfect not the first time this is happened to me in Japan took a wrong turn and right up on like a a ten mile long well there's no way for me to get off so runnin late and I feel like a stupid idiot American but what can I say I guess CR would cheat so we've arrived at Niko a little bit late this is my friend Sam from Australia what's up guys we actually met at that d1 event and he was like come to Niko yeah I'm here alright so for people that don't know can you give like a little bit of a background kind of like what's going on today hoooo Kishan is what yashi olfactory is sweet so yeah Co Factory is pretty much all Cochin is the owner of Yoshio factory and he's known as the stic god of the world and that is because in all the hot version episodes catching sutiya would always compare his cars than anyone else that brought like an S chassis to you know the the TV show and whatnot to compare on the toga and whatnot so he is known as what has the best sr tuna the best like Silvia setup suspension wise and everything for drifting he's the guy you want to see if you have an SUV in Japan and it's well known especially here in Japan and it go today is one of his events called and Walker to me which is like a training game running everything all ages what's kinda cool too when I got here is I kind of show me the cars like yeah you know and they send their cars up here much more different than you guys do back in the States but I kind of sent my car very similar to how they set them up here so I think I should be fine and we're referring to like having like a lot of grip a little bit higher ride height yeah a little bit stickier tire um and I'm excited how's the angle on the car oh yeah you'll be totally fine it's just you know cut shot knuckles short knuckles extended LCA so you should be able to get a good like 60 to 70 degrees of angle you'll be sick can we do like a walk around on the car driving oh yeah let's do it be sick alright here it is I get to drive a nest 15 with an SR can we pop the hood yeah sick sing is so cool wow that's pretty all right so you just telling me it's a bottomed out hot servo but what servo do you say it is comparable to like a disco potato basically it'll be pretty much like a disco potato I like the GT 28 very and all the hate space variant of that everything it is it's super alive you know decent token power so this is about 350 horsepower and this is what you need to have a lot of fun and drift consecutively and still making home at the end of the event that's the important thing in Japan definitely looks fairly simple kind of a lot of stuff removed from the bay which is kind of interesting almost like a little bit of a tuck going on this right here oh gee clutch fan RV is it yeah is that like a common mod yep water pump pulley on there because the SS have a massive issue 8,000 rpm 7000 rpm where they cultivate the water and it creates bubbles made a bigger version of that so that it slows it down and prevents it from that happening that's pretty cool yeah I wonder if I need to do that on my asura back home but it looks pretty simple cool walk around mr. cage is nice yep is this just like a Bolton cage yeah yeah this is the one that I'll catch on go bills forum is well looks fairly simple probably just like cable style line break yeah but with some good pads although you probably might be using that that much it'll be a lot of third gear flicks and stuff in this so it sounds fun I think you're right this is my first time ever drifting less 15 and it'll be half as fun you're gonna realize what the difference is in putting a massive whitey to Jason in the practice mentor they saw I mean from what I understand us 15 S&S 14s pretty much feel the same I think our coach I'm would argue to disagree with that they literally the same exact car underneath pretty much no no no no that has 15 from what I understand know that 14 is wider isn't it I'm from what I understand what I was told pretty much underneath you can't tell the difference renown s 14 and that's 15 it's literally just saying yeah everything's interchangeable I will ask go catch anthem I mean he gets back in he'll tell us yeah should we trust them do you think he knows anything about these cars man all right yeah pretty nice too I kind of dig that so look out the hood who's in Japan if you want to be able to drive back and forth from events you can't have anything otherwise it fails shuckin and the police will tell you to go home and get the car fixed really yep and you'll have to read us the recanvass certificate and everything interesting so he street drives us know this is obviously on the back of each tire on button it is street legal not just any tow truck either imagine that as 15 just rolling around on this thing this is a very very very fast entry his five-speed 606 okay gotcha okay they're gonna enter a third in the drop-down second okay I guess it's my turn exciting I think so uh-uh okay okay thank you feels good got a really work and I got used to driving that JZ ah that was fun uh I got the I did not expect to be able to Lincoln first try this car is very good a little bit more this is awesome it's good keep going or go in so good man dude so good literally first go dude yeah it helps so much watching him hi I'm clicking too hard I'm sorry through this corner yeah instead of like nice and smooth riding all the way through your planet guard and then like so you need to just make it all the way around okay sorry like I said before like you wanted to look beautiful so imagine how they'll go from the outside of the car and you should just start picking up that technique really easily cool what about that section that section you were doing pretty good cool just thanks back out and I asked about tandem in with Sam but I guess Sam's car doesn't have an angle kit and oka Shawn doesn't really want me following him unless it's oka Shawn driving his car just because he's in love them to spin in the media mess of his car which makes sense so OB Tom's gonna drive his car get a little comfortable and then hopefully we'll be able to tend him with him a little bit which would be very cool I kind of feel right at home here because everybody's got that cyrus take a look this will do walk around that's on the local stars right now sr bottomed out I think that one might have had a gret Ichiro I'm not sure this one again bottom-mount HKS turbo I think the other ones the same setup walking down another sorry it's so rad I love little SRS walk around we got the SR in this car they can hold the car CRS ours today - people don't keep on having rocker arm issues so that's what they're starting out right now they're super super clean 180 over here and then there's another s 15 over here that's having rocker arm issues but a land of s are out here and I'm loving it this is where Alexia had that sand pad su competition it's still good gear very very fast mangy into that corner where we started drifting before someone give it a go looks fun I just know you have to really use the whole track otherwise you can't really do it nope I know it's pretty challenging - OH get a better next time that one felt sick if I didn't spend okay Sean wants me to follow him in a car that's done Sam's are 33 doesn't have an angle kit so it's he can't drive the way that he wants to and he wants me to fall a little bit faster but he's kind of going slower because the r33 so he's gonna drive that white s15 over there I think yeah yeah yeah the minus 15 and I'm gonna follow him so we're gonna do three follow three lead and I'm gonna need a couple outside cliffs so thank you Sam's my job today that was the best run yet good job at him we were just taking the photo for the thumbnail and I heard John pull it out the jack just so you look tired cuz you look pretty small compared to me the guy Sam's been killing it today I guess this is like the closest he's ever driven here and okay Sean's only proud of himself it's a great day for both of us but he has been teasing me about not putting a tire mark on his door so I guess that's the mission of this last session give him a little rubba-dub-dub just write it write about check out how cool this truck setup is look how low car friendly it is and then this thing just lifts right up onto the truck that's baller worthy mentioned I guess I didn't say this but it's worth mentioning I managed to keep that 15 in one piece still looks good they're actually using that truck to bring home that blue car I think it had a rocker arm issue or maybe something internally in the engine it may have blown up but for the most part that pink car did phenomenally well very good consistent plenty of power for the track the way the suspension was set up again very similar oil over set up to minus 13 in terms of spring rate how it feels I did really like the yahshua factory knuckles and I'm guessing just extended lower control arms felt very good and consistent i I really like setups like that actually took Samms r33 for a couple runs and it felt very very smooth and consistent I actually wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did I felt more like an S chassis than Meyer 32 which is kind of weird Sam has his own YouTube channel called salmon and he'll actually have the footage of me driving the r33 on his channel right yep okay sake I think you said it'll probably be up in like a week though yeah yeah I'm like three videos ahead right now okay but he's actually living here and he obviously speaks English so if you guys are looking for more Japan content he's a great plug if you want to make your way into the Japan culture a little bit more thanks guys today was awesome it was so good to drive alongside Adam LZ because today was the first time that I was able to get super close Santana's we're on the first name basis okay you know y'all got a safe LZ sorry okay I am definitely definitely stoked that you pushed me to come on here and do this cuz this was an amazing experience getting to drive Nikko you know getting drive oka Sean's as 15 that was um it was a very cool day I was I was a little bit like skeptical leaving Ebisu where I have a car that's already paid for and I could just drive for like no money to come out here and do this 100% worth it would do it again in a heartbeat I'm glad you enjoyed it man it really is like I love like bringing people put them in all the junk car and just feeling like how that thing works as well as like just being able as a foreigner to experience new car circuit is very read to be out of 1d so I'm glad that you doing the opportunity no sick also that's right here that was me I gave him a little love you guys didn't see that in the video I never even realized that his car had an hour 34 front and that's pretty cool I don't realize your car 234 front I thought it looked cooler than mine but I didn't know why that's pretty cool that makes me like tower 33 way more should I get our 33 back in the States and fight a GTR 34 5 I'll get you the pots I don't want I don't want one says that now yeah I mean that was good I do I wish I bought in our 33 cinema or 32 I'll say that just gets like this off me know so I can get in here yeah I don't know I want a nice 15 back I have a nice 50 Mecca but I want that as 15 back oh that would be sick my ass our cars a little complicated but I'm gonna try to get so maybe I'll just turn the boost down an half and then it'll feel like that dude I just saved your life oh my god this guy started driving away with his laptop on his r33 skyline r34 big turbo front good that's a dude you've been hanging out with me too long that's a me move by the way there's been multiple times on this trip I've driven with things on the roof my camera someone caught it for it that happened my gloves on the roof Wow we're gonna go get some food and we're gonna go to the local up garage hang out with my boy Drake will you be Johnny there's something so cool about ripping down this little one lane wide road following another our 33 it's a lot of fun we just drove super far this up garage and it looks like it might be closed actually officially closed this one looks like this one looks like a cool one Suns huge it's doesn't look open no it's Wednesday which means it's official up garage closing day because they work through the weekends so this is like pretty common in Japanese culture for companies to do that they closed every Wednesday sorry Adam we drove all the way here not to get the wheels I need 17s because I busted mine got let me take your wheels real quick my steering yeah does it get more Japanese than this pulling up to the ramen

follow him in a car that's done Sam's are 33 doesn't have an angle kit so it's he can't drive the way that he wants to and he wants me to fall a little bit faster but he's kind of going slower because the r33 so he's gonna drive that white s15 over there I think yeah yeah yeah the minus 15 and I'm gonna follow him so we're gonna do three follow three lead and I'm gonna need a couple outside cliffs so thank you Sam's my job today that was the best run yet good job at him we were just taking the photo for the thumbnail and I heard John pull it out the jack just so you look tired cuz you look pretty small compared to me the guy Sam's been killing it today I guess this is like the closest he's ever driven here and okay Sean's only proud of himself it's a great day for both of us but he has been teasing me about not putting a tire mark on his door so I guess that's the mission of this last session give him a little rubba-dub-dub just write it write about check out how cool this truck setup is look how low car friendly it is and then this thing just lifts right up onto the truck that's baller worthy mentioned I guess I didn't say this but it's worth mentioning I managed to keep that 15 in one piece still looks good they're actually using that truck to bring home that blue car I think it had a rocker arm issue or maybe something internally in the engine it may have blown up but for the most part that pink car did phenomenally well very good consistent plenty of power for the track the way the suspension was set up again very similar oil over set up to minus 13 in terms of spring rate how it feels I did really like the yahshua factory knuckles and I'm guessing just extended lower control arms felt very good and consistent i I really like setups like that actually took Samms r33 for a couple runs and it felt very very smooth and consistent I actually wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did I felt more like an S chassis than Meyer 32 which is kind of weird Sam has his own YouTube channel called salmon and he'll actually have the footage of me driving the r33 on his channel right yep okay sake I think you said it'll probably be up in like a week though yeah yeah I'm like three videos ahead right now okay but he's actually living here and he obviously speaks English so if you guys are looking for more Japan content he's a great plug if you want to make your way into the Japan culture a little bit more thanks guys today was awesome it was so good to drive alongside Adam LZ because today was the first time that I was able to get super close Santana's we're on the first name basis okay you know y'all got a safe LZ sorry okay I am definitely definitely stoked that you pushed me to come on here and do this cuz this was an amazing experience getting to drive Nikko you know getting drive oka Sean's as 15 that was um it was a very cool day I was I was a little bit like skeptical leaving Ebisu where I have a car that's already paid for and I could just drive for like no money to come out here and do this 100% worth it would do it again in a heartbeat I'm glad you enjoyed it man it really is like I love like bringing people put them in all the junk car and just feeling like how that thing works as well as like just being able as a foreigner to experience new car circuit is very read to be out of 1d so I'm glad that you doing the opportunity no sick also that's right here that was me I gave him a little love you guys didn't see that in the video I never even realized that his car had an hour 34 front and that's pretty cool I don't realize your car 234 front I thought it looked cooler than mine but I didn't know why that's pretty cool that makes me like tower 33 way more should I get our 33 back in the States and fight a GTR 34 5 I'll get you the pots I don't want I don't want one says that now yeah I mean that was good I do I wish I bought in our 33 cinema or 32 I'll say that just gets like this off me know so I can get in here yeah I don't know I want a nice 15 back I have a nice 50 Mecca but I want that as 15 back oh that would be sick my ass our cars a little complicated but I'm gonna try to get so maybe I'll just turn the boost down an half and then it'll feel like that dude I just saved your life oh my god this guy started driving away with his laptop on his r33 skyline r34 big turbo front good that's a dude you've been hanging out with me too long that's a me move by the way there's been multiple times on this trip I've driven with things on the roof my camera someone caught it for it that happened my gloves on the roof Wow we're gonna go get some food and we're gonna go to the local up garage hang out with my boy Drake will you be Johnny there's something so cool about ripping down this little one lane wide road following another our 33 it's a lot of fun we just drove super far this up garage and it looks like it might be closed actually officially closed this one looks like this one looks like a cool one Suns huge it's doesn't look open no it's Wednesday which means it's official up garage closing day because they work through the weekends so this is like pretty common in Japanese culture for companies to do that they closed every Wednesday sorry Adam we drove all the way here not to get the wheels I need 17s because I busted mine got let me take your wheels real quick my steering yeah does it get more Japanese than this pulling up to the ramen spot to our 33 is deep look at us thank you Miss gonna end the video here there's a sick day I don't know what else to say it's nice to like button please you know I'm not gonna upload tomorrow I don't know what else to say we had ramen no more do you want from me I'm gonna go get some coffee so don't fall sick yep
