In a thrilling escapade, TJ Hunt and his crew jet off to the land of the rising sun for an adrenaline-fueled drift trip in Japan. The team is buzzing with excitement as they gear up to immerse themselves in the vibrant car culture and surprises awaiting them at Eisu. After a grueling 11-hour flight, they touch down and make a beeline for Top Rank, where they rendezvous with the enigmatic Masa and feast their eyes on an array of tantalizing cars, including a rare Skyline that sets pulses racing.

Amidst the sea of automotive marvels, TJ's beloved Bayside blue R34 hits a snag with a suspicious noise, prompting a swift change of plans as they opt for Masa's sleek R34 for their escapades. The air is thick with anticipation as they explore the treasure trove of vehicles at Top Rank, from S15s to Evo Fs, each machine more alluring than the last. The discovery of a Toyota GRMN Yaris with factory carbon components leaves the team in awe, pondering why such gems are a rarity stateside.

With the sun setting on their day, the crew embarks on a picturesque 3-hour drive to Eisu, punctuated by a pit stop at a Curry House where Masa's expertise saves the day. The rumble of the R34 GTR's engine echoes through the Japanese countryside as they savor the freedom of the open road, a symphony of power and precision. As they settle into their hotel after a marathon 23-hour journey, fatigue tugs at their eyelids, but the promise of what lies ahead in Japan keeps their spirits high and their engines revving for the adventures yet to unfold.
