Three LEGENDS Who Shaped JDM Car Culture and How They Did it | Capturing Car Culture

Larry Chen visits some of the legendary drivers and builders from Japan’s Tuning Golden Age, who are arguably the individuals who shaped JDM car culture into what it is today. First, he takes a quick ride along and attends a car meet with Nobuteru Taniguchi, also known as “Nob,“ which stands for “No One Better.“ During this time with Nob, they also meet Maaya Orido, the daughter of the legendary racer Max Orido. Naturally, they decide to visit Max’s shop. Finally, they have an exciting experience at Daigo Saito’s shop, where he has a personal drift course for himself and his friends to enjoy when they need a break from work.
