Join us as we meet one of the living legends of Japanese car tuning and JDM car culture. As the founder and president of perhaps the most iconic and important aftermarket company for Honda sports cars, 'Spoon Sports' is a name that stands out amongst others. The philosophy of total balance and reliability yet providing exhilaration and huge fun factor is the core ethos of this small but influential tuner. It's unique commitment to following the racing spirit of Honda themselves, taking it to a higher level of refinement seen in F1 and high level racing and by using Honda OEM suppliers for parts to ensure reliability is what made 'Spoon' a respected and reputable brand even by non Honda owners. It is this simple but strict discipline to the finer arts of car tuning that is adopted by enthusiasts who realise the importance of 'drivable performance'.
We had the privilege to have a personal interview with the Tatsuru Ichishima, the JDM Grandmaster in Sodegaura Circuit during one of Spoon's testing for parts development. We get his thoughts and advice on what are the important things to do and look our for to prepare your car for a track day or spirited driving. This was a rare chance to hear directly from Ichishima san whose vast experience as a racing driver and developer of some of the best aftermarket parts. Our crew member @aonaminnie also had a chance to ride along him in his personal Honda S800 in Hakone during a shoot with Spoon's restored project Civic Type R EK9.
Enjoy this one!

The legend himself talking to one of the greatest youtube car creators. I hope this is not a dream.
great narration!
Selamünaleyküm faruk abi taşınma ne zaman başlıyor abi karar verdin mi hangi ülke
Captain Bradford: your videos are extremely polished and content-packed, with high signal-to-noise ratio. These are gems especially to those of us outside of Japan. They allow us to access the knowledge base that would otherwise be limited. Thank you!!
When all hope is lost, you can count on the captain and JDM masters to lift your spirits!
Spoon sports still around to this day and they make awesome parts for Honda vehicles
You gotta admire their dedication to even the non-performance platforms. I’m so glad they made parts for the FK7. Now if I could only afford them.
@@marcusmcneal7453 yeah
Love the Spoon company and its products, a true icon of Japanese performance! 👏🏻👌🏻
S2000 Ancestor remember kids know the roots and respect your elders.
Still my favorite tuner. A lot of people seem to ‘out grow’ Honda’s but my love is the only thing that’s grown.
Truly once in a lifetime footage. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
I just love how japanese car people just makes it all too simple to tune cars 😌 no exagerrated engine mods and no fancy shimancy oils just mods that make sense and makes tremendous impact 😌
That newly overhauled B series engine is idling so smooth! Might even be smoother than a brand new B series from Honda factory.
Absolute legend of a man on the Japanese scene. Spoon was so articulate and concise with his advice, and his S800 is beautiful. This interview is a watershed moment for the channel. Phenomenal! Please, try to get Spirits!
I love Spoon, they are the only ones who make crazy performance parts for my Kb1
This is what the people want. Honda fans will cherish this
His S800 is beautiful ❤️
Aaah. Finish work, open a beer and watch a new JDM masters video. Perfection! I love when you guys visit and interview such legendary tuners.
love it, absolute love Japanese car culture, love Japan
Man...i wan that spoon jacket so bad!!
Love to see you guys back in action. I was having withdrawals. Great video btw!
Spoon represents the ideal balance of performance and practicality: their experience in the field of racing ensures the highest standards for performance, and their commitment to Honda's core philosophy of quality and practicality means that they also acknowledge the functionality that is synonymous with the brand's image. As a result, the driver sacrifices nothing. It's this complete approach that I find very inspiring.
Indeed their wiper brades are a must for every tuner 😂
@@ArtVandelayOfficial honestly the fact that they actually make wiper blades is awesome lol
@@ArtVandelayOfficial you’re right! Lol. Their performance parts are well worth the price because you’re getting great quality, but some of their accessories are wildly overpriced when you see the same part made by a different aftermarket manufacturer for a much lower price.
Capt Branford-San, what an amazing video! Thank you so much for this informative and fascinating feature!
Your channel has been a great inspiration for our channel!
Thank you!
I loved every second of this.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to get this info directly from the legendary Spoon Sports CEO! much appreciated
The quality of this content is just incredible!
underrated channel
its a shame that this video doesn't have alot of views. your videos are amazing!
Vtec Club! Who remembers that? :D
What a legen!
HELLO CAPT BRAD I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS THANK YOU FOR THE UPLOAD ☺️💕
I'm so glad subtitles work on this video
Jdm masters this channel is a gift to the REAL Honda guys. Everyone that wants to treat a civic build as a funny, jokearound, budget build, and keep putting their ebay turbos on, can go scram. More 9000rpms and red recarros for us to buy!💪
U got me on ebay turbo 😂😂😂
The best car youtube channel by a long way. Love your work Captain.
Thanks god finally got a youtuber interview Ichishima-san. Hope I can meet you at type one for my next visit in Japan tokyo
Thank you JDM Masters team you are awesome! Cant wait for the next video!
VTEC LEGEND... great show !!
I can't help but feel like this might have been on the bucket list of Captain xD haha good for him. What awesome content!
I do not own a honda nor will I probably ever own one, but Tatsuru certainly is someone worth listening to. He knows his stuff. Thanks for making this video Bradford and everyone else who was involved. If there is one aspect that might require fine tuning, it would be audio-balance in the intro-section. The music is little bit too loud, it's bit difficult to make out what you are saying at the times.
I hope we'll get to see you visit other tuning/manufacturing shops as well!
As a new to Hondas recent DC2 owner, I've really come to appreciate the simplicity that Spoon has come to be known for focusing on the important small details. Great interview and info for those overthinking these cars. Keep it simple and reliable, and reward yourself with more seat time. Baffled oil pan is on the shopping list now!
This is a brilliant episode for JDM fans ... you probably made a lot of folks google for used EK6s after watching this. There is a special feeling in making NA cars go faster without sacrificing handling and reliability. Thank you, Captain Bradford. The S800 was brilliant too. Greetings from Singapore and Malaysia.
very happy i need this engine to run and help me in my life not just street racing car.
Wow, the wisdom in this video is amazing. I will be applying these tips for my track days this spring!
Wonderful to have this experience with the legend,thankyou. Respect.
Thanks for the interview! Honda fan from Brazil.
Now thats a mind I could pick for days , you'd think a track day is just bringing your car in and having fun but this video makes you realize you pay a toll for playing in the track. Its awesome to be reminded by this sage to mind the little things. Great content
The best one yet! Thanks for this guys👌🏽
Keep on keeping on!
Time absolutely flies when I watch your videos, they're just that amazing 👍
Great video! Must have been an awesome experience going over cars with ichishima san.
My wife and I met him briefly when we visited Japan. 🙏🏽
Awesome to see him still enthusiastic about the brand for so long.
I loved the intro to this video it gave me chills 😆 as a Honda fan this was right up my street, great video!
Thanks for these awesome vids!
I've been waiting for this since it was posted on Instagram. Arigato Captain!
This channel really is an absolute goldmine. Such in-depth and direct content. Must have been a real pleasure to talk with Tatsuru and spend the other day driving with him! Keep up the great work. I'm sure I speak for alot of people when I say your posts provide such relaxation and tranquility in these current times. Thank you!
This was a surreal episode!!! Ichishima-san explained everything so simply and clear, and the fact that he quickly fixed his ignition issue on the spot is amazing!! I cannot wait for the upcoming episodes!
Awesome Job Ken and Japonic! You havr considerably upped the game in this video. Loved it! Probably my favorite video to date 😍😍😍

A living legend.

Legendary 🏁👏👏👏
Great 👍🏽 video bravo 👏🏽 learn lot of things
Awesone video brother
I NEED that Spoon jacket
The legend.....
That S800 😍
I'd love to see a series on this channel of pure racing if you guys could afford it
Would you ever make a video on the Feel’s Honda Twincam shop?
BEST!!!
Cool
sometime its run only one gear but when engine is running very strong the tachometer reach 120 very fast, its all in the engine, all in the engine not aftermarket parts like intake etc.
Thanks for the video. In a VTEC club Best Motoring feature some 10-15 years ago Ichishima made a categoric advise that the transmission fluid should be changed much more often than the engine oil. Seems his advice had changed now which may be a result of advancement in oils etc but I would've liked to have seen more questioning on the subject.
Are you sure
If I remember correctly he said back then, to change mission oil at same time as engine so perhaps 5000 km 🤔
@@ArtVandelayOfficial I am very sure cause I only recently watched it again
thx capt bradford.. thx ichisima-san
I hope they make parts for Honda Prelude!
Unlikely
It's just not worth it for them
Very small market for racing parts
