    I had to do a double take, as I though I'd click on the wrong video. The overall presentation and editing was absolutely superb, not only giving us a view of Japan but the variety of Car's on offer. ❤❤

    That jack knight mini sprint was awesome! Some crazy valuable parts on that super rare mini.

      Ha, agreed, get yourself back and take the Jack Night out. Or do an series on the k100 head conversion on A series engine.

    • @MegaPonyMagic
      @MegaPonyMagic Před 4 měsíci +4

      ​@theskidfactory the mini sprint shells are super cool too. Significantly faster than a normal shell thanks to better aero. You probably didn't notice, but it hasnt got the external vertical seams, Aso, im pretty sure they have a slightly raked back front glass. Add this to The lowered height and less weight combined together make them punch thru the air alot better than a standard " brick" 🙂

    From a long time appreciator watching all the hilariously edited videos over the past 6 or 7? Years, it's awesome to see you getting to go do cool shit and get paid for it bro. Come a long way from an extra on an extra of a CZcams channel, glad to see all the works paid off, you're doing what most millennial car guys dream of

    Hey woody, I'm a heavy vehicle mechanic from Brisbane. I've been watching the skid factory from the start, I'm watching this episode from my hotel room in Nagoya at 3.15am😂😂😂 while on holidays with the Fam. Great episode Mate, we just did the toyota factor today 👍🤘

    My parents (both) raced Minis in the 80's, using Jack Knight gears, Quaife differentials and Kent Cams. We didn't go on fancy holidays like the other kids did, I started to learn welding and repairing Minis in my primary school days though. Sunday will always be race day to me. They used to run their race engines in, in the road cars haha - 1380's on road tires was one way to delete tires.
    Congrats to you both! Enjoyed the video, seems a lovely place.

    travel vlogs aren't generally my go-to watch, but this one had me hooked from start to finish. Not sure I would watch similar content every week, but sprinkling them in now and then would keep me watching.
    Japan was already on my bucket list, now it's even higher!

    Then again the reason all the Nissan GTR’s had straight sixes, was because of an Australians engineering design.
