In Tokyo, "prosucc" is said to be the fastest car on the Metropolitan Expressway Shutoko including Wangan. Equipped with great power by twin turbos with quotas and deadlines, and burning gasoline and lives, it is overworked!
I'm so excited you're modifying the prosucc, I appreciate this so much. Dead honest, what i like EVEN more than typical iconic and hyped cars everyone buys and modifies, are the odd commuter cars no one would think of touching. Buying a affordable car that any average joe could buy and making it yours, THIS IS WHAT IT'S ABOUT. This is what I truly appreciate about car culture, this is what it should be about and what makes it special.

I just spent 2 months in Japan, helping my friend at his dealership... doing mechanic work/shaken/auctions etc.. In Japan when people/companies give up their cars to be sold off I find it so odd HOW MUCH STUFF they leave in the car. Mostly CDs, cell phone holders/chargers, and other personal items... One time in a trunk of a JZX was a whole tool bag (with tools) and spare parts for the car (headlights and tail lights) and a bunch of Drift Tengoku magazines. Kind of a weird glimpse in to somebody's life, or if it was some company vehicle.. figuring out what the company did.
The metal thing in the back left looks like a server rack rail (used so you can get at the server "modules" when they are mounted, they slide out like a drawer) Also knob too small, relatable lmao

How Alexis maintained a straight face while reviewing those shift sticks is beyond understanding
That table reminds me of my old super custom hiace. The center console had a fridge with an ice tray in the coldest part, plus a canteen kinda thing that would heat water to just below boiling (cos it was plastic). It was so Japanese. One speaker am radio tho. That's a bit rough.
Them "shift-knobs" deffinetely put the emphasis on the "knob" part rather than the "shift" 😳
14:20 I'm just imagining that there is some JAV out in Japan that has an actress.......mounting said shift knobs Alexi got. That's why their "popular."
i loved that little "introduction" nomu jr. did lol, also that part where he tried the shift knobs just left me like 😦the entire time LMAO but fr i love the new video style he's doing now, with the (old) top gear-like intros and the music/informative narrations he puts over b-roll sometimes...cant wait to see more, this is genuinely one of my comfort channels.
Really love how we got more of the scenery of Japan and you just doing mundane things, I know this is a car channel but I really enjoy seeing some everyday stuff like you eating cup noodles and that lol, it's a nice change of pace and oddly entertaining

I've talked with my friend literally today, and I asked "what reliable and cheap van/MPV should I buy?". And he told "Probox", then explained that it's literally the simplest and cheapest option, while being extremely reliable. Thanks for the video!
The intro use to remind me of a anime intro, now due to the narration it reminds me more about the old BBC Top gear. Pro succ, brilliant. Personally I would do what you want to do. (Lower, rims & tyres), and then keep the roof rack and the old stickers. Then it looks like a van that does work, but has been modified. Also great storage spot on the roof.
