The Elder Scrolls VI Release Window Predictions Following Asha's visit to Bethesda to see an early build, the hosts discuss realistic expectations for The Elder Scrolls VI. While some speculate a 2027 launch, the consensus leans toward 2028 or 2029 to allow thorough QA testing and avoid past launch issues.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we're joined live from Import Alliance by Joshua Travis, a lifelong Nissan enthusiast whose passion for the brand started early thanks to his father's nearly four-decade career with Nissan. After years of drifting everything from a 350Z to a Corvette, Joshua finally fulfilled a lifelong dream by importing a truly special Nissan Skyline R34 GTT sedan built by the legendary Okubo Factory. Joshua shares the entire journey—from searching Japanese auctions and navigating the import process to the excitement of winning the car at auction after it unexpectedly left consignment. We also discuss what makes an Okubo Factory build so unique, the rare June-built 2.6L stroker engine, period-correct Japanese modifications, and why he intentionally chose to preserve the car's identity as a GTT instead of trying to turn it into a GT-R clone. We also dive into the realities of importing a car from Japan, avoiding scams, choosing the right importer, and the modifications Joshua has planned as he carefully modernizes the car while staying true to its Japanese roots. It's an episode about patience, passion, and finally owning the Skyline you've dreamed about for years.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we sit down with Alan and Lupe from the J Spek Projekt to talk about the powerful connection between military service, brotherhood, and the JDM community. What started as a shared passion for Japanese cars has grown into something much bigger—a network of veterans and enthusiasts using cars as a way to reconnect, heal, and support one another. We hear how both Alan and Lupe found their way into the automotive world, from deployments overseas and discovering Japanese car culture to building some of the cleanest, most well-known project cars in the community. They share the story behind the J Spec Project, the idea of "Boost Therapy," and how a simple cruise with friends can be just as valuable as any formal therapy session. The conversation also dives into the changing car scenes across the country, from Florida to Utah and Oklahoma, the friendships built through JDM culture, and why preserving the sense of community is just as important as building the cars themselves. Whether you're a veteran, an enthusiast, or both, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the best therapy is a full tank of gas, a winding road, and good people beside you.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we tackle a topic that's been at the heart of car culture for decades — exhaust systems. From the early days of bolt-on mufflers, Pep Boys fart cans, and local muffler shop specials to today's high-end titanium systems, we discuss how exhausts have shaped the way we experience cars. We dive into the iconic exhaust brands that defined generations of enthusiasts, debate canisters versus oval mufflers, and share our thoughts on what makes an exhaust truly great. Along the way, we discuss everything from old-school HKS systems and Mugen classics to modern handcrafted titanium setups and the differences between mass-produced and custom-built exhausts. Of course, we also get into the age-old question: Is an exhaust about performance, sound, appearance, or all three? We share stories from our own builds, compare some of our favorite systems, and talk about why the sound of a car can be just as important as the horsepower it makes.
