- This is my first video, so there are many mistakes
It's not as amazing as I thought it would be. I'm just hoping Isami Amemiya himself doesn't find it disappointing if he finds the video lol.
I'm sleep deprived af rn so I might come back tomorrow with updates and extra details
If we can hit 100 subs I'd be very happy

please do more videos!
@@cossavard hahaha
Really good video for a first try my brother. Pace was good, no filler material. Especially impressed by how much relevant and awesome footage you found.
Big potential from this channel
Thank you. I was just about to quit
The gran turismo music 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾 that's just makes the video that much better.
I am a big tuna fan
choona
@wasabiCars I see we have good taste
Im a fan of mussel carp myself.
No crust
Toonerr, 'cause I have a 'Murican accent.
I've known about this company and the man for many years. Would always see him at Tokyo Auto Salon. One day I was driving running errands and I unknowling passed by his shop in Tomisato. I had no idea it was there. At first I thought it was just another tuner shop. Upon closer look it was the legendary RE Amemiya shop. I had no idea all this time I was living less than 5km from his shop.
Would be very nice to hear more about early japanese street racing scene from you!
Love the Grand Turismo music in the background
This popped up in recommend! Great video, looking forward to seeing more 😁
These cars sound more like f1 cars than actual f1 cars
lol the sound was actually a scoot 4 rotor sped up, a car that wasn't in the video. But yeah, F1 doesn't sound like that anymore
Great video, keep it up
I still have a 1988 yellow RE Amemiya sticker on my fc rx7,faded but but still visible....!
Rad bit of insight into the THE Mazda man himself.
big fan of your articles on facebook. now that you're on youtube, i can listen to good content while working
Thank you, that’s exactly what these are made for
Also nice mustang (?) lol
@@Kaidopoet thank you. ill let my uncle know. its his car 🤣. the underrated gen 1970 models. keep up the amazing work ✊
Great video dude👍🏼
One of the biggest groups that I admire. All time. Came from the streets and tuning shops and now they are race professionals. Goes to show that anyone can do it
The creativity of these 80s style jdm
Impressive. Very nice.
Let's see Kaido's feet.
Hello Edgar
@@Kaidopoet Hello Lachlan
Lol
I really enjoyed your video. Thank you, I've always been so excited to see Japan's automotive backstory.
Oh shit, Gran Turismo 1 Mazda music!
Tokyo Drift, who did in game rotary engines ?
So glad I found your Facebook page a month or two ago! Can’t wait to see more videos
If this is actually your first video, very impressive, well done :)
What a video man! Sensational, full of information and the guy music in the background took me back to early 2000s 😌 thank you!
finally i get to enjoy your content in video format
this video is amazing . saved 100% i love Rotary engines
Good video, not too long, not too short. And most importantly, it was on point the whole time.
Fantastic video and Documentary 🏆
Nice video, I've been an RE Amemiya fan for a while now.
Very well done. :)
Nice to see a vid about RE Amemiya and the Rotor tuning at all.
Go on for even more and Good Luck man. :D
I liked the music choices
Great work. Keep at it, I look forward to more
That was awesome keep going !
Good video! Can't wait to see more from ya!
Great video, I knew about the cars but not the man behind Amemiya. Thanks!
Wow the guy really became a legend through sheer persistence
This is a love story. Thank you for this.
What a pleasant video to watch!!
Absolutley Beautiful Video Thankyou 💯🖤🇳🇿🤙
great video, looking forward to more content in the future!
absolutely brilliant!
Congrats on your first CZcams video man! Looking forward to a lot more.
Thanks!
I used to watch your stuff in maths class lol
@@Kaidopoet for real. Wow. Did you ace math? How many offset related questions were on your math exams
@@RealWheelDeal nope lol, and 0 unfortunately. Wasn't doing class work. But I still managed to get into the right uni by transferring
Great video, especially for a first! It's a fascinating world over in Japans Car Community so I'm happy you're there to report on it!
Very nice work man. I'm a huge rotary fan, this video is just brilliant.
Thanks man
I can see that lol
That was great from start to finish. The opening grabbed my soul, the music filled my heart with Nostalgia and the content was concise and interesting. I'm happy I found this channel.
thank u very much
I’m one of the biggest re amemiya fans. Seeing this is eye candy. Tysm!
Great video
Hell yea! That was a great video.
Thanks!
I feared it was terrible
great video nice work
I really appreciate the soundtrack of this video.
Loved it. Music selection is 10/10 . The opening was just the best ever.
Wouldn't mind watching a bit of those interviews in the video; that'd also help you with video lengh if you so desire.
Cheers from Argentina my dude 💯
Great content! Been following your articles on Facebook since the early days, you always have very interesting takes and information, so it’s great to now have it on video format!
Thanks! Been a great help this year
Hopefully won’t abandon the fb page lol
Great video, and a lot of good information about someone I did not know about
As a rotary fan and previous owner of an FC and RX8 I appreciate this video. Rotaries get a lot of shade thrown at them. I honestly think they are not for everybody. I took care of my cars making sure they were fully warm before I turned it off even on short rides. I checked fluids every full tank of gas and drove them year round including Chicago winters. The only problem I had was with my RX8’s alternator going out twice and that’s not even a mechanical problem 🤷🏻♂️
good job for your first video. keep it up
Awsome, thank you.
Great first video!
Great video.
Definitely the most interesting Lotus Europa I've ever seen 👍
Very nice video. 😊
Thats the most epic intro ever. Gran turismo all the wayyyy
Gran Turismo 1 OST 👍
Yep lol. Copyright free
Very nice video
Keeping an eye on this channel
thanks lol
For fucking real keep making content dude and it will get even better and you can say fuck a 9-5
@@miamibeach40 hahaha that's the aim
That honda today was a real beauty! Expert styling 👌🏻 💘
Japanese cars were never liked in the US, the changed their designs to approve US customers.
So they were never able to do good designs anymore, the fit for all designs....
kudos to you mate upload more and with time you will improve
Great first video
Nice documentary!
Nice video
well you just earned yourself a subscriber
All you need is a better mic, production is already excellent
Very cool very nice 👍
Great job man! Thank you!
Things to improove - would be nice to hear the voice a little bit louder
god bless re amemiya, best rotary tuner out there
Gran Turismo OST👌👌👌
The best Japanese rotary tuner? Yes and no, depending on who you ask. The most well known Japanese rotary tuner internationally? Yes. To me, I think Ama-san's team produce the best products and build the best Rx7's, but there are a handful of Japanese rotary tuners out there and are up to par with them such as R-Magic, FEED, Knight Sports, Panspeed, RS Active, Revolution, ERC, etc. Each founder have their own history as well. There are also a couple dozen shops out in the country side that don't get the exposure, but has been building amazing rotary machines for years. I had the pleasure of visiting RE Amemiya's main shop in Koto a few times, never been to their other shop in Chiba. Very humble guys, extremely passionate tuners.
Interesting!
I Love the Gran Turismo Track!!
First video!?
How many tries? lol
Good job, dude.
Good pace.
Good info.
thanks
this was basically my first try on this style of video (informative, with my voice in it). There was one other edit that I made to learn how to edit but apart from that, this was my first attempt

I already knew this biography on best motoring so thx the video
GrandTurismo music ❤️
Bailey Stevens, the man who fucks up every opportunity he gets
👏👏👏
What this video fails to mention, back in the 80’s there where three types of racing in Japan. Highway racing, drifting in the mountains and 0-400 (quarter mile) in the city streets..I used to drag race in Tokyo and Yokohama area in the early 80’s throughout the early 90’s.. crazy times in Japan back in them days! Used to race until sun came up, or morning traffic…
We still do that, Rally, Drag cars, Track racing, F1, do that with the 280 Z all,
Only Tokio Drifting is unique for Japan ! Style points needed ! jury ratings !
subbed
Same
gran turismo and pokemon soundtracks … great taste!
Wow. Thanks to this video I just realized that he was the guy sitting by the water in F&F Tokyo Drift when Han was training Shawn how to drift. And Han was driving an RX-7. Wow. Great video 🤟🏾🤟🏾
no man thats a different guy lol
Lol 😂 my apologies I thought it was him. Still a great video
That’s Keiichi Tsuchiya aka The Drift King himself brother
@@WhereYoHeadAt17 correcto
Thanks for the headphone warning! Kidding, but that rotary scream came fresh from a podcast, gotta be careful with autoplay.
My introduction to Amemiya san was the Tokyo Xtreme Racer Zero PS1 game. There was a small documentary movie you could watch and it showed a beautiful white Greddy Super 7 FD3S. I was hooked and later owned a FD3S because of it.
that last sentence was a bit of a stab in the gut bud
got a link to the video? lol
@@Kaidopoet sure homie 🤙

Great work! Hope one day I can have a RE 雨宮 300km/h meter... Wish the very best.
Thanks!
Tbh a fake one’s probably better nowadays lol
🔥
I was just watching a CarWow video where a bunch of Kei cars raced and thought an AZ-1 would be an awesome platform to stretch out a bit fitting a larger power plant in where the 64hp stock one sat. next thing I know I watch this video at 5:33 Re-Amemiya beat me to by 30yrs.
Wow, I knew nothing about this. The late 80s racers look amazing. I want to hear more about this since the 90s everyone and their mother knows about.
the 280 Z Datsun Cars were never loved in the US, by some only...
They needed to sell more cars, so they changed to the' fits for all ' designs ....
He raced into his 70s.. smh what a guy
Watched this while using a RE Amemiya RX-7 on World Touring Cup Tokyo Expressway in GT7
GRAN TURISMO MUSIC🎉
*earphone user dead inside
Oh f yes high speed content
Oh man…that GT2 theme song
Are you using a wheel or kbm
That Pokémon ost though
lol
@@Kaidopoet loving the content.
Opening was sooo incredible, what is that sound clip from?
this but sped up

@@Kaidopoet thank you!!! I'm on a quest to find the highest revving rotary engine, can you help!? There's fck all info, definitively I've found 14k rpm so far.
