The only car unknown in my country (El Salvador) is the that Skyline. I had the chance to drive or being passenger of almost of the the rest of the cars. A friend of mine still has a MR2, another friend had an '85 Dodge Conquest, which is basically the same Starion, a cousin had an AE86 and a CRX. The cars I couldn't drive (or being passenger) were the RX-7 and the 300ZX, because none of my friends or relatives had one of those
Japanese sports cars were all the rage back in the day man lol, everyone loved the hell out of them in the 80's and 90's... good times, best days I ever had ^_^
The original MR2 was completely blown away by the Pontiac Fiero GT. The Starion turbo was a great car. One outran my 1985 IROC-Z. The Honda CRX was the only Honda I ever liked since the original Civic CVCC. The 300ZX was a backwards evolution of the original 240Z/260Z/280Z/ through 1977, by far the best car to ever come out of Japan, ever. Notice how every one of these cars has TWO doors, sadly something nobody makes anymore. I also noticed that several of them had been riced out.
I thought so i knew there was a 260z back n the day i know for sure about the 240 sx, my uncle had a 1987 Chrysler Conquest (turbo version flat side) my dad and my uncle both had a 280 zx 86 model, i love the Japanese 80's era sport cars they are some of the best cars til this day, man the memories are priceless! im currently trying to get the Quest Tsi up and running its running i think just bad turbo as it smokes terribly i got in mind to slap in a Garrett.
here in Australia we had the 2lt sirus engine 4G63t , cant say I ever saw any with the wide body kit that looks amazing and 5 stud wheels ours only had 4
Here I am looking at some old school that I could remember from back then....then at 8:20 you hit me with TSX10 6x9 speakers , they were kool to me because the TSX10 words could light up green , out of the speakers only the TSX6 are the only ones that don’t have the lights and they were black boxed.
Nice nice nice.The fc3s on the garage is my.Nice to see them on the video ahah. Look my other 80s car. Write nissan cherry turbo and the panda silver one is my. Maybe can be on an another video. :)
I would like to see a supra too. Also Honda EK,EGs and Civics and the unforgettable subaru impteza,wrx,sti s? Mmmm the mitsubishi evos :) However i love this vid :))
Right or the 240sx,the Nissan Pulsar but i still enjoyed the list, im just super happy that you included both the Starion and the Conquest alot of people have forgotton or still didnt know about those cars.
maybe 8 to 10 years ago i hated the styling of the mkII supra because of its boxy rear lights and weird pop up headlights. nowadays I admire it much more because retro styling and long sleek hood, reminds me of old corvettes. interesting what time can do to you huh ? :)
StarJoker 2 Same, I thought it looked ugly the first time I saw it. After about 2 years I looked at it again after getting more into cars, I love its retro look, especially the rear and its long front end.. even the black outlines on the fenders.
It's an impossible task to list ALL "iconic Japanese cars". There are simply too many, especially in the 80's when the Japanese were trying everything to break into new markets as American and British car industry was spiraling down. You could have mentioned Mazda Eunos, Toyota Carina 2000GT, Honda Integra... and the list can go on forever, really.
Чувак показал сугубо те модели, которые были в штатах, как всегда однополярное мышление американца, он совершенно не в курсе существования например, тех же Крауна или Марка💁♂️
You've got to give it to the Japanese that not only do they build some pretty nice cars, they also know which side of the vehicle the steering wheel should be on.
I am back!
Nice! I'm looking forward to more videos.
You forgot the r32, that came out in 89
where is the Nissan ❤a31❤
No one ever includes the Z31 in anything!!!! I'm glad you did! I love you now, you're the best channel ever dude
Everyone is too busy with Supras and R35 GTRs.
yes!!! about time
I agree! I own an 84 z31 👌
There's a good reason for it. It had a 4-cylinder engine and was as elegant as Donald Trump. And presumably as fast.
@@Maloy7800 v6 turbo lmao
1978-1984 Toyota Starlet should be in this list. research it. small car with FR layout.
I couldn't agree more
Honorable mention for 80's JDM
1.Toyota Soarer
2.Nissan Skyline R31
3.Toyota Supra MK3
4.80's Honda Prelude
5.80's Toyota Celica
Glad to see the z31 make the list! They are the most underrated and under appreciated car ever
I love the skyline RS turbo

Japanese sports cars were all the rage back in the day man lol, everyone loved the hell out of them in the 80's and 90's... good times, best days I ever had ^_^
how about the 80's Toyota Soarer?
SecondGear thats just a old man car
Z20 gt-tt
Yakuza cocaine dealer's car.
2 door cars arent old man cars...
Good question. It's as beautiful as Nissan Skyline 31, as slow, and as forgotten. And about as "iconic". :-))
It's not just a car things , its an awesome history .. thanks dude!
I own an Aw11 but would also love a 300zx (z31) but so hard to find those in decent condition here in NZ
I have two save 10$ a day for 1000 days and buy one off me
With the exception of the Skyline I have had and loved all of these. Long live the 80s!

No s12....? They where fairly popular in Japan.
Jason Colby S12 are beautiful, I own one in italy
Very nice video. It would have been nice if you displayed what the cars cost back then and what they go for today.
Welcome back! So glad your first video since your back is JDM :)
I miss my crx si….it handled like a go cart and was real good on gas.
I subscribed!👌👍😎😁
here in Australia we had the 2lt sirus engine 4G63t , cant say I ever saw any with the wide body kit that looks amazing and 5 stud wheels ours only had 4

Plot twist:crx is used in gta vc as blista compacta remember?
Inisharu Deeeeeee!!!!!
What about the japanese 1982-1984 toyota corona gt-t and gt-tr coupe and sedan models???
Love them all!
3 gen honda prelude 4ws was epic should of been on here
No car screams 80s from every angle like the Mitsubishi Starion.
MR2, Subaru XT and Nissan Pulsar.
Nice nice nice.The fc3s on the garage is my.Nice to see them on the video ahah.
Look my other 80s car. Write nissan cherry turbo and the panda silver one is my. Maybe can be on an another video. :)
I would like to see a supra too.
Also Honda EK,EGs and Civics and the unforgettable subaru impteza,wrx,sti s?
Mmmm the mitsubishi evos :)
However i love this vid :))
wheres the Datsun 280zx at more iconic than the 300zx imo
agreed
totally agreed
PurE-ReUnite 100% agreed
Right or the 240sx,the Nissan Pulsar but i still enjoyed the list, im just super happy that you included both the Starion and the Conquest alot of people have forgotton or still didnt know about those cars.
280zx was more early 80s... 300zx was more of an 80s car since it was througout the 80s. Basically any z car is iconic...
about time some one give the Celica supra some attention.
FINALLY...someone actually included my car in something(even tho this vid is 2 years old😂)The nissan 300zx Z31👀
1g crx 84-87, second gen crx 88-91
Use better songs :p other than that this is a really interesting watch, thanks for the vid
The music was nice
@@official_Quube Glad you liked it
You didn't include the curb weight on any of these...
Toyota starlet, mazda 323 4wd, Subaru Loyale, R32, Silvia, Civic....
I wish i had any of these cars
Ayyyyyyeeeeeeee you're back XD.
how bout the 80's Mitsubishi Lancer EX Turbo GSR?
Corollas didn’t have cup holders
kinda wish to see GX71 or Crown
i would want a nice CRX but i can’t find any without cringe mods like turbos and useless “racing” “upgrades”
I just want to point out in my profile picture you'll see a Honda crx but it's an 84, why didn't it have 84 in the dates on the video?
Damn this r31
Ae86 in video it’s sprinter trueno?
We never got the AE86 chassis code in the USA, they were all AE85 cars with the 4AGE.
RustbeltRob classic sanks understand
Mitsubishi with blown valve steam seals what a surprise... Doesn't mater the model, year or engine they all blow the seals.
maybe 8 to 10 years ago i hated the styling of the mkII supra because of its boxy rear lights and weird pop up headlights. nowadays I admire it much more because retro styling and long sleek hood, reminds me of old corvettes. interesting what time can do to you huh ? :)

Simplicity is classic

0:44 THE 8-6!!! WELCOME BACK INITIAL D!!!! 3:51 THE FC!!!!!
What happend to the subaru RX!?

I love these cars but they are too expensive now 😭
I think CRX is more reachable and convenient than others.
curntly i use a mercedes.. i hate most of modern japanis cars but i love 80s japanies so much they are well built cars
Might be a bit late, but Mazda RX-7 FC manufacturing dates are wrong. They were made from 1985 to 1992.
isn't that first one a AE85?
benjamin Glanois it's called a coupe, not a 2 door sedan lmfao
Guus Cornelissen lol u dont even watch pacific coast auto best import channel
Starion is the best one in my opinion.....
So no cressida/mark ii/chaser/cresta?
How could you not include the R32 GTR????
you showed a 90s crx
Coupes rule
which supra would that be in 12:01
Nissan number one .✌
This looks like the deluxo from gta online
Toyota Celica Supra and Honda CRX are the best💪🏻 but the CRX sounds much better that the Toyota. In my opinion.
I am trying to find 90's cars in good condition but i found none?
1986 prelude si 2.0?
The 80s for japan was like the 50s for america..just peak of their styling
What about the Nissan 240sx
Where is honda integra
Skyline and ae86 are inline 6’s not inline 4’s
Heuristic X lol get your facts right 4age is 4 cylinder hahaha and skyline is 6 cylinder
0:07
Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2000 Turbo?????
かっこいーー！！
Subaru xt coupe?
