  • Nothing is more Japanese than Kaido Racers, slammed kyusha rides, bosozolu bikes and the gurachan movement. In this episode I drop by Mizuno Works, a shop that’s been at the center of this style in the Kanto region, known for his overfender work, his small wood-rimmed steering wheels and his exhaust manifolds for a variety of engines like the Nissan L-series. I got to check out his Yonmeri and GX61 Eagle Face demo cars in detail. Hot play and enjoy!

    Hope you guys enjoy this one! Mizuno Works is by far one of the most authentic JDM workshops over here and the never ending stash of cars and parts shows just that! If you haven't already, make sure to subscribe to the channel to help us get over the 100k mark! If you have, thank you so much!

    Went to japan last October, and on the way to Mt fuji saw this small shop with an 86 Corolla levin parked outside, told my dad to visit it and while others went to those big stores similar to book off (a shop that sells anything). While checking out the Levin outside the shop, inside the garage peeking behind the Miata NA these old japanese dudes working on, a was Cressida mark II, when i noticed it, probably the owner looked at me and i had to talk in my broken Japanese. Told him the miata is cool, but pointed instead at the cressida and said “cressida?”, the owner was shocked and happy that he let me inside his garage and turned on the lights, it was cool a sight to see it being repaired and on bbs mags. Told him i love kaido culture and he was soo happy, got to love the japanese, i hope i made his day that time.
    Shop was Racechip in kawaguchiko
    Felt like sharing this moment here in the comment section as it represents the kaido culture i adore so much!

    Dino, i’m really happy you finally managed to go there and make a vídeo. Besides the amazing shop and cars, Mizuno is a really nice guy. I visited the shop some years ago and he was super friendly ,gave me a tour of the shop and even served some tea ( it was a cold day) When we said good bye he presented me with some stickers! I will never forget this amazing experience. Thanks Dino for another great vídeo...as always!!

    Thank you Dino for giving a voice and a spotlight on the smaller and indepedent Japanese workshops - these places really are the heart and soul of proper old school JDM style that so many of today's styles owe homage to. It would be great to have longer interviews if possible with the owners if possible to learn about their passion and experiences. Many thanks brother and hoping you get that first 100k soon!!!

    Hey Dino, this video sums up what Dino DC is all about. Digging deep into car culture, from the famed to the obscure, and delivering it all in wonderfully aesthetic quality: The images, the camera, the sound...and then the facts all brought to us in such a calm and unpretentious tone of a true enthusiast. You are virtually tending the flame, not praying to the ashes. This makes your channel stand out from the lot, which is why I keep recommending it to every petrolhead around me! Keep going!

    Visited this shop last year in the spring time and its crazy how he has even more stuff in the side shop and the back yard now, was able to see him again at a kaido racer meeting later on in our trip and he brought out his laurel. Mizuno-san was super welcoming, sat down with us over some tea and let us nerd out and ask questions about all his stuff. He ended up giving me and my friends some some Young Auto mags from his collection and some stickers, one of my favorite shops I visited on my trip ! Great coverage on this one.
