le all over the world how to modify their cars Recently, we got a call from this guy, Steve King and his friends at JTB who asked us if we'd like to take a road trip of Hokkaido The second largest Island of Japan We thought it was an Awesome idea, so we jumped on a plane from Sydney to Tokyo and then a short 1 hour flight to Asahikawa, where we'd begin our Journey Waiting for us at Asahikawa airport, were the guys we're gonna be travelling with Including Mr Sato, who supplied some cars, and Stev

en our Interpreter They'd organised a couple of cars to take on our trip Including a 1996 Version 3 STI WRX, and a Suzuki Alto works RZR All wheel drive kei car with a 660cc turbocharged engine With all our gear packed, it was time to hit the road, because there was a local car club waiting for us just outside the airport As soon as left the airport, we got a taste of just how awesome the driving roads are in Hokkaido A Local car club called the 88's got word that some Australians were on the wa

y so they met us to show us their rides Moog: Hello, very nice to meet you various hellos Moog: That's good english hello! Moog: mad car! Silvia Moog: JDM Drift spec The 88's were very excited to show Mighty car Mods inside their cars Moog: Drift style gear knob, same as i had in my 180SX Moog: and there's kind of more electronics in there than the tatus really Moog: Its incredible, its very cool - i like that Marty: the headlights need a little.. Marty: Ahh, a front mount intercooler! Marty: Co

ol! I like it Marty: Carbon Fibre Oh wow, thats awesome! Marty to Steve: How many different cars is this? Steve: (Japanese) laughts Steve: About 5 different cars Marty: I love it! There's a real sense that these cars are used as an appliance, and it's not uncommon for these guys to go through a few cars a year As they get more and more beyond repair Moog: Did you do these things? or were they done already? Steve: (Japanese) Girl: No no no, He Steve: He's the tech guy for them Moog to girl: Is it

Fast? Steve: (Japanese) Girl: Yes! Marty: That front bumper is off a Subaru Legacy, the worlds have joined! Moog: Nissan and Subaru Martin! Marty: Yeah! its possible, how good is it?! After having a good look through their cars, the 88's decided to take us for a drive, and show us some of the awesome back roads around Biei We made our way up to a peaceful lookout in the mountains, but the only thing we really had to look out for was bears. Steve: you gotta watch out for bears! they are dangerou

s The mountain roads of Japan, are just as you'd imagine them Beautiful.. Peaceful.. Tranquil And full of drifters!! This kind of driving is not just for the boys The girls are also keen to give their cars a good thrashing! If anything falls off your car.. its just a matter of picking up the broken pieces and using a cable tie to stick it back on, so you're ready for another run Drifting on a private road like this, is really the only safe way to do it While there was still some tread left on th

e tyres The 88's took us for a drive through the mountains, and show us their favourite thing to do After a big day of driving Lavender ice cream is a favourite with the drifters, and it's a specialty of Biei Produced with Fresh Lavender thats farmed from the area We made sure everyone had Mighty Car Mods stickers, and they were put to good use, straight away We said goodbye to the 88's, and hit the road again This is the Otokyama brewery The most famous in Asahikawa, their name appears in many

old block prints from the days when men had bald heads and swords Otokyama Sake is made from rice, and pure underground water that runs from the Tyzetsuan mountain range They only make it in winter to keep the flavour consistent, and it's won them international awards for 30 years straight The brewery gets thousands of visitors per year, and they export all over the world, so it was time for us to check it out Moog: We're at the Otokyama Brewery, and they've been making Saka for over 340 years.

Now the important thing to remember is that Japan has a zero tolerance for drink driving so the keys to the Subaru, are going to someone else, Because Marty and I, are about to get stuck into it Steve: They would traditionally used, usually by the ladies, just before they got married so they would fill this up with Sake, and take it to the guys family and kind of ask for the marriage Marty: like an engagement party? Steve: Exactly, yeah They normally put a few thousand k's between their Sake and

the Australians, But today we're gonna try some in the actual brewery Moog: The quintessential sake experiece, 340 year old recipe Moog: thats smooth, WOW! Moog: That is probably the smoothest alcohol i've ever tasted, I'll have some more thanks! Moog: That ones Japanese for "how ya going?!" Steve: So he said this is quite a nice pure one Marty: Smells Winey Marty: they don't normally give out samples this big, but they know we're from Australia and.. its in our culture so, bottoms up! (cheers)

Marty: oh.. this is even better! They get better as you go! Marty: haaa. Sake bucket!! (drunk) Moog: No no no no, Marty, Sit down dude Marty: (slurring) it'll be funny man!!! Moog: Are you drun...? Marty: Arigato TAXI!!! Moog: No.. That means "thankyou taxi" Okay, we need to go now! I think they took my behaviour as a complement as their amazing brew, because they asked us for our autographs on the way out, and gave us some tee shirts! We left the brewery, and Mr Sato kindly drove us to the cit

y of Asahikawa to our Hotel A few hours later, we headed back into town Mr Sato took us to his favourite resteraunt, called Kisweete in downtown Asahikawa for some authentic Japanese Cuisine Hokkaido is famous for it's seafood AND farm produce, so you can eat some of the best Japanese Food, and its cheaper than in the big cities Moog: Oh wow!! We also brought some cuisine of our own, and an Australian icon, that was probably made in Japan Thankyou! Moog: This here is Tako San Weiner Moog: this i

s traditional Japanese fish sausage, sounds wrong... Moog: it tastes good, it tastes really good Moog: it's very spicy, Arigato! It's a delicious fish sausage! Moog: I highly reccomend you try it Marty: this is one of my favourte cars.. Marty: I'd love to know what you guys think of it... Mr Sato: Scrap.. Mr Sato: Scrap! Marty: Scrap?? Scrap!!?! Marty: they said my old car is scrap!! Steve: (Japanese) Steve: So in Japan, you'd only get what its worth for the actual metal Steve: so you're looking

at about $100 Your show, is now playing in the big screens Steve: and everyones watching it and they know who you are Steve: so there's all these people waiting for you guys Steves friend Yoshuke, had arranged for us to meet some of the locals, at a 1970's style disco bar, that plays Mighty Car Mods on their screens on a Tuesday Night Moog: (singing) "I wanna get a bigger exhaust..." Marty: look! Moog: Oh yeah dude! Mighty Car Mods Action! This is one of the coolest bars, complete with graffiti

on the wall, disco balls and a whole bunch of Japanese girls who'd come out to meet us Moog: Whats your name? Girl: Mami Moog: Mami?! haha I had my birthday on the flight over So they organised me a birthday celebration compelte with cake, and songs We did such a good job of the dishes, that they offered us a job, and then asked us to sign the wall When you're in Asahikawa, make sure you come and say Hi to this guy, at BiBian Time for us to get some snacks for our road trip1 Moog: Dude, bowl of

squid flavour! Want bowl of squid? Moog: Umm. Hotpot of cheese? Marty: No Moog: Thats whale flavour Moog: this, is a bag of Moog: chocked full of Japanese Snacks, all of that is going to be In us, over the next few days.. (laughs) The next morning, Mr Sato, Yoshuke and Mitsuri Took us to Asahikawa Jinga Temple There are many religions practised in Japan including Bhudissm, and Shinto and Asahikawa Ginga is one of the Shrinto shrines in Japan Japanese people traditionally visit shrines on New Ye

ars Day to pray for good fortune for the coming year, but also at other times, to pray for good luck or fortune in business, marriage, university exams and other such major life events It's also quite common for Japanese people to take their car to the shrine, to have the car blessed to ensure safe driving, free of accidents. And as we were about to take a road trip around Hokkaido We decided to get our little Alto blessed. Steve: So, we've gotta park the car just there near the white sign, the

cars not allowed on there because that's where the gods walk Steve: we go up there, walk up the temple, and do the initial part of the ceremony Steve: and then the priest is gonna come out with us to car, and he's gonna Moog: Bless The car. Steve: for safe driving for the rest of your Hokkaido trip We were introduced to Mr Daiki Ashihara, who is the Kannushi , or head priest, at the shrine, who took us through the ceremony Mr Ashihara: (Japanese blessing) After the 30 minute ceremony, our little

Suzuki was suitably blessed and Yoshuke had arranged for us to meet up with Hiro Ishikawa, a professional calligraphy artist Mr Ishikawa had agreed to teach us the basics of Japanese Calligraphy And with his deep knowledge of Kanji, he'd write out our names, and we'd try and copy it the best we could Steve: So hold it Moog: Like a chopstick almost? Steve: Exactly what he said.. Mr Ishikawa: (Japanese) Moog: So Mr Ishikawa has just down our names in Kanji Moog: And what we've gotta do now, using

the very limited skills we have, we're going to try and recreate our names Moog: In Kanji, so that is the compeition right now Moog: Martin, I'm going to honest with you because you're a nice guy, these are terrible! Steve: It's interesting, it has very artistic feel Marty: That's a nice way of saying it's crap Moog: And our score out of ten? Mr Iishikawa: (Japanese) Steve: Seven! Moog: And our score out of ten? Mr Iishikawa: (Japanese) Steve: Seven! Moog: Ah hai! Steve: Excellent! Steve: this

one's very smart Moog: oooh! Moog: that's very apt actually for us Moog: and a score out of ten for Martin? Steve: (Japanese) Mr Ishikawa: (Japanese) Steve: 8.5! Moog: oh wow! Moog: Okay Okay! What we weren't told, is that whoever loses Moog: The caligraphy compeition, will actually be taking on the Japanese kendo master Moog: in a fight to the death Moog: what you can see up on the wall here, this signifies that he is a Moog: 6th dan Kendo master, but as i am guest in his country and his dojo M

oog: I'm sure he'll be very kind Moog: so it's actually a little bit claustraphobic Moog: in the helmet, makes you feel a little bit spacy, it's so tight and is pressing against your ears Moog: so it feels like you're wearing earplugs, and you can hear everything that's going on in your body Moog: I can imagine if you got hit in the head while wearing this helmet it would be pretty loud (screams) (more screams) Mr Ishikawa was really nice a few minutes ago, but no he just kept screaming at me an

d trying to chop my head off (screams) (laughs) Moog: aaaarrrrrggghhhhhh Marty: You alright dude? Moog: aaggh Steve: So bow again Moog: He's a scary dude!!! As a storm brewed over Asahikawa It was time to Modify our little car The reason we chose this car for our road trip, it because it's turbo, small, all wheel drive and heaps of fun The yellow number plate signifies that its a Kei Car, which has to be under 660cc's and enjoys many benefits including cheaper rego and running costs Mr Sato was

kind enough to let us use his workshop at Car Shop Zenith. Which was lucky because the skies opened up You can't get these cars in Australia So we're really excited to be able to work on the car in it's home country. We brought with us a fe Australian made turbo components to raise the boost pressure, and squeeze a little more performance out of this tiny engine We fitted a boost gauge, so we could monitor the changes, to the delight of our local fans Marty: we've got a couple of fans in Japan m

aking their own behind the scenes documentary Marty: there was a 400m long car part Marty: out the back of the garage where we could test out our mods Moog: with the most important mod done, we've just had word that i'd been invited to get my ass kicked AGAIN Moog: this time at the local Aikido School Aikido is a Japanese martial art That harmonises with the motion of an attacker, to redirect the force of their attack, rather than opposing head on Aikido is one of Japans grappling arts and it's

very effective at breaking arms Moog: Oh yep, thats not pleasant at all! This school is run at Asahikawa's medical college so all the practitioners are doctors, and they train three times a week, for three hours The next day we set off in the WRX, Alto and Golf with Mr Sato, Steve and Mitsuri to check out the Sapporo Car Auctions Marty was in the Alto, making sure all the mods we did yesterday worked as they should Moog was in the WRX, making sure it's mods worked too And Steve was in his golf,

making sure my mods, were better than his The country side AND driving in Hokkaido really is amazing Moog: I'm quite proud of myself, my sunglasses broke on the plane, and i added this eye mask thing to it Moog: but the problem is....... it hurts! Marty: it's really really bright around here, so we had to err.. sample the local fashion Moog: haha! yours a terrible dude! Marty: What do you mean!? Moog: what did you do to the front of them? Marty: I melted them Moog: gimme a look.. Moog: marty use

d a cigarette lighter to modify the front of his there.. With our sunglasses and the TV on, it was time to take off at a leisurely pace up the highway to the auctions Sapporo is around 1 and a half hours from Asahikawa Moog: this is corn, onion, cheese... Moog: and mayonaise, on a donut Marty: oh wow dude! Moog: we've just pulled off the highway Moog: we're on the highway for about 1.5 hours in the STI Moog: we've got Steve in the GTI and the Alto is behind us, and we're about to.. Moog: to go i

nto the auction house and check out some of the mad cars for sale USS Sapporo is a massive car auction house and around 5000 cars go through these auctions, every single day Mr Sato is the elected vice chairman of the Hokkaido Chapter of the Japan Association of used car dealers So he pulled a few strings to get us access to the auction house, as these are restricted areas as only professional dealers get to see Japan has an incredibly strict quality control system for cars at auction The inspec

tors fill out detailed forms which are then scanned, so the dealers in the bidding room Can get information on each car that is for sale With such a huge variety of cars for sale in Japan, We've imported 6 over the years for our show We even found a Daihatsu that is exactly the same model as our show car Moog: that is awesome! That is SO awesome Moog: okay so everybody wants a cheap car Moog: they want something fast, for not much cash, this RX7 here.. Moog: three hundred dollars, not three thou

sand.. 300 dollars! Moog: for this RX7 - unbelievable! Moog: i was getting excited about $300 sports cars, while Marty was getting excited about this thing, which was only $250 There was a heap of Kei cars for sale, and it made us realise just how small our little car was There is such a huge range of cars for sale, almost anything you can imagine And a lot of them can be imported back to Australia, for around half of what you'd pay locally Marty: we've found another Alto here at the auctions, l

ooks somewhat cleaner than ours! Marty: it's newer, it's got airbags, it's all polished up Marty: and it's got a boost gauge and tacho just for the passenger It was time to say goodbye to Mitsuri and Mr Sato and continue on our trip But not before we released a few more kilowatts from our Alto with a brand new air filter Marty: filthy... wow! With a little bit more power unleished, it was time to get back on the road Moog: you're a bogan dude! Moog: you are such a bogan dude! Moog: you are from

the sutherland shire, you are frodo the bogan! We're back on the Highway, heading towards Lake Toya Which means a couple of hours on some of the best roads we've seen so far We got off the highway, and soon after that a dirt road that led up a mountain, so we could get a few over the top of Lake Toya Lake Toya is ten k's in diameter, and is a result of a volcanic eruption, thousands of years ago This is mount Utsu and we've organised to get a cable car, to the crater at the top (Japanese) Our gu

ide explains to us that this mountain has been slowly moving over the last 35 years and it used to be to our left, but now its to our right Moog: this is actually a live volcano behind us, and it last erupted in 1973 Moog: what you can see down there, used to be a lake, but when the volcano erupted it actually blew the lake away Moog: and now there's nothing left but this huge crater Marty: and apparently it goes off once every 30 or so years Steve: Enjoy the room Steve: the nice hotel, the nice

food and the nice outdoor bath .. have a relaxing tim It was time to jump back into our super economical Kei Car Our boost controller had made it faster, but also more thirsty for fuel, as we later found out A service station in Japan is just that not only do you not have to hold the fuel nozzle lever, your car is emptied of rubbish, fluids and tyres checked, and your windows cleaned all while being refuelled We kinda felt bad just standing around and watching Moog: relax, it's all good Marty:

Japanese accuracy! That evening we stayed at the Sun Hotel, which has rooms right on the banks of Lake Toya. Every night during summer they put on a fireworks display for the guests The hotel has it's own indoor water park, along with a tradition Ohn Sen which are hot baths that use water directly from the Volcanic springs The next day, we decided to take a jet boat out onto Lake Toya Moog: okay so we're about to jump onboard Moog: the F14 Phantom Marine, Jet Boat Moog: so in the middle of the l

ake Moog: it's actually so shallow, that the water is only waist deep Moog: and we're right in the middle of the lake Marty: what we're actually sitting in right now, is a volcanic cater Marty: and while it's only a metre deep here, if you go a couple of meters that way, it drops off 170 meters straight down We're heading to Oshima a picturesque in the middle of the lake, which has a huge population of deer Marty: arigato So these are a biscuits you feed the deer Marty: and if there's any left o

ver you can eat them yourself Marty (to deer): one for you, one for me! Marty: they brought 3 deer here, they got together, and now there's 250 of them Steve: so there's some really nice english Steve: what it actually means is, they don't want you feed the deer with salty of deep fried sweets Moog: would somebody feed the deer deep fried food? Steve: they might do! you never know... We swapped a business card for an ice cream, which was a pretty good deal and then we were back on the boat, this

time with me driving, and everyone else terrified! Moog: I'm driving a 200 horsepower Jetboat Moog: 3.6 litre turbo diesel Moog: So over the last few years there's been a lot of rivalry between ..Marty and me, and the whole Nissan and Subaru thing Marty: But we have finally found a way ... to settle it once and for all So marty jumped into his Subaru swan with launch assist, and headed out onto the race track... Moog: and i jumped into my Nissan swan, and took to the water Moog: Nraaaaaagh! (Ma

rty chopping Moog...) Marty: I am victorious! Marty: Subaru wins, on the road, and in the water.... in a swan Steve: It's just not got the power it should have Moog: what's going on dude? Marty: Steves car isn't making the power it should, it's making some weird noises... We're gonna throw in a GFB Afermarket Blow off valve ... It's gonna hold the boost and its gonna his car faster for free! With Steve's car running right again, it was time to de-sticker his ride and add some of our own vinyl so

it actually gained some more power Mighty Car Mods style.. Moog: so it's a modified hatchback, and we're from Australia, so you know we've gotta do this With our P Plate representing It was time to hit the road again, this time heading through the mountain roads to Sapporo but we wanted to do it in a clean car.. Moog: we're getting a car wash ... Mighty Car Mods Style... not really, someone else is doing it.. With the little car clean we took the alto works for a spirited drive through the moun

tain pass The roads of Hokkaido, feel like they were made for turbo cars, with tight corners.. ... smooth surfaces and fast straights Along the way, we stopped at the famous Nakayamatoge Moog: (Japanese) Moog: Arigato (more Japanese) Moog: it's a potato, inside a donut.. Moog: you'd think the Americans would have thought of that already.. With my stomach full of donut and potato, i met an eligable young lady who was a big fan of my headband Steve: Is this cool? Eligible lady: Yes! With numbers e

xhanged it was time to hit the road again.. \ We stopped off at this beautiful lookout where we could enjoy some peace and quiet I'm so glad we just washed the car! A couple more hours on the road, and we started getting into the outskirts of Sapporo city Moog: we've just stopped in at Area 4 by 4, which is a used car dealership in Hokkaido Moog: And i thought i'd show you just how cheap some of these amazing cars are Moog: so behind me here, this pewter R33 skyline, that's around $3500 Australi

an Dollars Moog: now next to it, one of my favourites Moog: SR20, 180SX also around $3500 Moog: now there's a fully pumped S15 Silvia here, thats probably around $10,000 Moog: but thats a proper worked car, that ones out of control Moog: now over here, this ones pretty cool, we've got the massive arches on the Mr2 Moog: thats about $5000 Moog: very serious S15, apparently this one will beat a porsche, any porsche Moog: thats $10,000 Moog: GTO, one of Japans, well, not as popular Moog: supercars,

but definitely a fast car, thats around about $5000 Moog: comes with this incredibly ugly kit as well but it is very Jap Moog: it shows you just how cheap these cars are, considering by the time they get to australia Moog: they are considered specialty, and probably cost 4 to 5 times that much Marty: so this, spec'd out Legacy, is $25.5 Marty: in Japan, this tiny little Suzuki Kei Car Marty: with less features, less everything.. is another $2000 on top of that Marty: and the reason is.. Marty:

Less tax, less rego, less petrol... cars are expensive to run Marty: so there's more demand Steve: so he was just telling me why cars like the Legacys are dropping so much in price... Steve: one reason is the price.. Steve: they cost to run the cars, it costs a lot more like the legacy Steve: than it does to run the Kei car, so thats one of the main ones Steve: the second is the Eco car thing.. Which is basically Steve: you know, the Hybrid cars and electric cars.. Steve: those are REALLY popula

r right no We made our way to the Hotel, just as the sun was going down over the city Sapporo is the 5th Largest city in Japan, that around two million people call home It's a hugely popular centre in the winter for the ski season, it boast the Sapporo brewery beautiful mountains, rivers and parks and is a thriving Arts hub In winter there are snow sculptures right through the center of the city And a beer festival where all the major beer manufactureres in Japan display their stuff We headed ou

t for dinner with some of the people who helped make our trip possible.. Marty learnt the Japanese art of pouring beer for everyone, i ate a huge amount of Hokkaido Crab, which is a local delicacy After the amazing dinner I happened to mention that Blow Off Valves are illegal in Australia, and they laughed about it for the next two hours It was a great way to end our last night in Hokkaido Marty: here's a good travel tip, when you leave your car overnight.. turn the light off! We got our asses k

icked by a little Daihatsu, on our way to Super Autobacs, which is a huge car parts and accesories chain store, which is literally the size of a factory Even the car park was awesome! We're on our way to Up Garage, which is a second hand parts store They've got every car part you can imagine, and they only sell second hand Amazingly everything is around 25% of what you'd pay in Australia Marty: Legacy wheels! $100 for a whole set! Moog: so if you want a spoiler, they start at ten bucks! Moog: yo

u want bass, you want sub? we got it! 24 inch! Moog: wow thats really really heavy Moog: okay so we've been looking for some Moog: rims for our little show car, and we've just found some Rays Moog: versus turismo, these are 20% off... Moog: around about $139 US Dollars, so its gonna be Moog: less than $150 Australian dollars, for a whole set of 4! As a quick demonstration of just how small our little car is.. we decided to drive around the city on the footpath.. until someone asked us to stop so

we took a break, and got a hot lunch, which you can get at any 7/11 or convinience store in Japan Moog: now the Japanese are very good Moog: at making things small, and they've managed to 50 lemons... moog: inside this tiny bottle, i don't know how they did it Moog: but they managed to fit Marty and I in a tiny car for the last week Moog: and i'm going to drink, 50 - lemons Here we go.. Moog: that was 25 lemons... Moog: BLAAARRRGGGH Moog: blaararara That IS 25 lemons!! (BUUUURP) Moog: excuse me

! Moog: we're heading towards Chitose City trying to see how far we can get without our hands on the steering wheel... Just kidding... We're actually trying to line steve up to beat his golf Moog: alto works dude! Marty: that was a good launch! Moog: we're catching, we're catching! Marty: that was a good launch man Moog: thanks mate! Marty: you had him in the first 5 metres... we're heading to Hokkaido Offroad Park, which is Japans best.. with over 7km of dirt tracks this is the place that Japan

ese motorbike manufacturers bring their new models for research before they export them all over the world... They've got a whole fleet of dune buggies that you can race, but we came up with another idea... Moog: so after all this rivalry, it's finally time.. Moog: for the ultimate Japan Battle.. Moog: I am in a dune buggy, and Marty.. Moog: is in the Suzuki Alto Works AWD turbo... Moog: on a rally track Marty: and i'm gonna destroy you! Moog: i'm gonna destroy you dude, i'm gonna pump you hard!

(beep, beep, beep..) The dune buggy was faster in the corners, but as soon as we were on a straight the turbo power of the Suzuki couldn't be beat, P Plate and all.. Moog: aw man! you owned it dude!! Marty: i know! Hokkaido off road park, is also home to Japans best motorcross track Moog: dude i am having the best time, this is just Awesome Moog: i'm very glad that i didn't break my wrist out there, because i had Moog: nightmares as i was going around of Moog: sitting on the plane with that bit

of my forearm sticking out Moog: at a 90degree angle.. but definitely next time when i come back here, and it will be soon Moog: we are going to bring all our gear, and we're gonna go nuts out there.. Marty: because Steve drives a Golf.. Marty: he's never done a burnout, or got sideways, or driven on Gravel.. Marty: so i decided to take him on one final drive, in the little Alto Steve: !@#$ Check out the look on Steves face! Marty: yeah! Steve: Gonna Vomit!!! Marty: he's gonna vomit.. Steve: i'

m gonna VOM. awww Moog: thank you! Koala Hug! Moog: we had the best time in Hokkaido, with this guy and our Alto Moog: going crazy on the track Moog: thank you.. WOOOOOOOOOOO!
