Late night car meet in Osaka before heading to Kyoto to hang with Kei Miura!!...
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
During Auto Messe weekend, we always try to host a gathering somewhere in Osaka because there are so many people in town for the show. It just makes sense to bring everyone together for some post-show activities. That way it maximizes the experience for those who come to the Kansai region and it allows them to get a taste of true Osaka car culture. It's not unlike Tokyo, when the masses all link up at various night meets in the city. This is just on a smaller scale but with a completely different vibe. If you enjoy cars, you already know that Osaka will be thriving that weekend. On this particular evening, we decided to bring our newly-finished Mintia "Cold Smash" EK4 Civic race car out. We had friends in town who hadn't seen the car in-person yet and even though it is a dedicated race car, we thought it'd be fun to see this thing smashing around the city. A few days after that, we all headed over to Kyoto for a fun evening with Kei Miura from TRA Kyoto. You may know him as the man behind the popular aero parts company(s) Rocket Bunny and Pandem. We all grab dinner and then head back to his shop where he shows us some of his latest projects and goes through the unique process in how each build came together....

It’s gotta be surreal at times when you’re over there riding around in Osaka. Knowing you’ve influenced even the guys in Japan at this point. You Rock Joey!

Kei Miura is a man of extraordinary talents! Did all that work in his shop too. No wonder Rocket Bunny is up there alongside Liberty Walk and RWB.

Man I loved this thanks for showing his shop I never seen a real rocket bunny kit!
Friend of mine had a factory turbo 22re Toyota pick up rock crawler. That thing was so funny to drive. Small truck on 40’s, 4 linked, manual, turbo noises.
I love your new EK race. Car gets me inspired to do something similar to my 2005 Corolla. ❤❤❤❤😍😍😍
I was over for messe and ended up at this meet, awesome night
Good stuff man. Thank you
Living the dream !
I love your videos ❤
Temu engine setup got me 😂 Miura-san was probably given the parts for free (cause he's Kei Miura) and then said "Well, let me give you SOMETHING for all this"🙏🏿
Omg that unagi looks bomb as hell. I wish I could find a place near me that serves it like that. The places near me always skimp on the unagi and asking for extra costs an arm and leg :(
Amazing to see. Iam from germany 🔥👍
This used to be what I did back in the 90's. Now I am old and tired. hahah
The Mad Mike car has already been made into a Hot Wheels, with two liveries so far inspired by the orange and green LM car. HW calls it the "Mad Mike Drift Attack".
Dope. A-F. 👍 😎 🤙
Damn these night time Japan vibes are immaculate. ❤ The Blue with Baby Blue EK reminds me so much of an FD (Mazdaspeed?) I built in Gran Turismo 2 as a teenager. Same color scheme with white wheels.

Joey, you should most definitely produce a few of the no good racing stickers you all put on the rear of the ek!, I need one!
2JZ from Temu got me 😂 Kei Miura is insane. He needs a Laser welder sponsorship he just sold like 3-4 welders there alone. Even I'd be telling friends about it lol

Osaka is definitely the authentic car meet scene and night runners, also cool to see Stan’s ek9, obvious to see it there. Orherwise do you know which 3D CAD software Kei is using ? Is it AutoDesk or ProEngineer or something else ?
