    After a break, the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast is officially back — and there’s a lot to catch up on. Bobby headed out of Maine for the winter, Aaron welcomed a new baby into the world, and life hit pause for a bit… but now we’re back in the driver’s seat.

    In this episode, we reset and look ahead. We talk about our upcoming car modification plans, what’s changing in our builds this year, and the events we’re planning to attend. We also open it up to you — the listeners — for episode ideas, questions, and topics you want us to cover as we get back into a consistent rhythm.

    It’s a laid-back check-in with some real-life updates, fresh motivation, and a clear direction for what’s coming next.

    🎙️ New chapters, new builds, and a new season of the podcast — let’s get back to it.

    In this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we go live from the shop floor in Boca Raton with Peter and Dre from HD Werks — a place where some of the cleanest and most dialed-in Nissan Skylines in the country come to life.

    Peter has spent over 12 years working on Skylines, building a reputation for precision, consistency, and deep platform knowledge. We talk about what it takes to keep these cars running at a high level, the evolution of the Skyline scene, and what separates a good build from a truly great one.

    From day-to-day shop life to high-end builds and problem-solving on rare JDM platforms, this episode gives you a real, behind-the-scenes look at one of Florida’s go-to Skyline shops.

    🎙️ From the shop floor to the street — this is where Skyline expertise is built, one car at a time.

  • What Is Fed Legal In 2026? Is This The End Of The Golden Era? - EP.174
    Mar 7 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we take a look at the cars that officially became federally legal in 2026 under the 25-year import rule — including icons like the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII and the Honda Integra Type R (DC5).

    While these cars are still exciting additions for enthusiasts, this new class of imports raises a bigger question: are we reaching the end of the JDM golden era? Compared to the flood of legendary cars that became legal over the past decade — R32s, Supras, FD RX-7s, and eventually the R34 — the pipeline of truly must-have JDM cars seems to be slowing down.

    We discuss what makes the Evo 7 and DC5 special, why the early-2000s era feels different from the 90s boom, and whether the future of importing will ever match the excitement of the golden years. Is the best behind us, or are there still hidden gems waiting their turn?

    🎙️ The next generation is here — but is the magic fading?

  • Juan Chavez - EP.173

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we sit down with Juan Chavez from Central Florida — a dedicated Skyline owner whose R33 GT-R is the definition of precision and patience.


    Juan is known for his next-level attention to detail, carefully curating and sourcing some of the rarest parts available for the R33 platform. This isn’t a rushed build or a trend-driven project — it’s a long-term vision brought to life through research, relationships, and relentless standards.


    We talk about what drives him to chase authenticity, how he tracks down hard-to-find components, and why details most people overlook are the ones that matter most. It’s a conversation about doing things the right way — even when it takes longer and costs more.


    🎙️ Rare parts, refined taste, and an R33 built with intention — this is how you elevate a legend.

  • Everyone's Favorite Fabricator Stewart Leask - Ep.172
    Feb 7 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we sit down with Stewart Leask from Texas — a master fabricator with a deep and varied background working on everything from high-level race cars to some of the rarest Nissan Skylines in existence.

    Stewart is known for his exceptional titanium work, crafting one-off components and fully custom parts that blend performance, durability, and straight-up art. We talk about his journey through the motorsports world, how those experiences shaped his approach to fabrication, and why building parts from scratch — especially for Skylines — still matters in a world full of off-the-shelf solutions.

    From race-proven engineering to meticulous TIG welds, this episode is all about craftsmanship, problem-solving, and pushing the Skyline platform forward with skill and intention.

    🎙️ When perfection is built, not bought — this is fabrication at its highest level.

  • What About The Tools? - EP.171
    Jan 31 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we step away from cars for a minute and dig into the tool world — and how dramatically the landscape has changed over the last 20 years. What used to be locked behind tool trucks and professional shops is now widely available to everyday enthusiasts, DIYers, and home-garage builders.

    We talk about legacy brands like Snap-on, MAC Tools, Cornwell Tools, and Craftsman, along with Japanese favorites like TONE. We compare quality, price, accessibility, and how social media, online retail, and global manufacturing have reshaped what it means to build a serious toolbox today.

    From tool-truck loyalty to modern consumer access, this episode is about how the barrier to entry has changed — and what actually matters when choosing tools in 2025.

    🎙️ More access, more options, and more opinions — the tool game isn’t what it used to be.

    In this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we sit down with Jon Macdonald from Florida — the man who took a humble R32 GT-R and completely transformed it into a purpose-built drag car in his own garage. No big shop. No shortcuts. Just skill, patience, and an obsession with getting it right.

    Jon walks us through the full build process, the challenges of restoring and modifying a GT-R at home, and what it took to bring this car from vision to reality. The payoff? The car was officially unveiled at GT-R Festival in Ennis, Texas, where it didn’t just turn heads — it took home Best of Show.

    This episode is all about grassroots passion, hands-on craftsmanship, and proving that some of the wildest builds still come out of home garages.

    🎙️ Built at home. Unveiled on the biggest stage. Best of Show speaks for itself.

  • CRASHED - EP.169
    Jan 18 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we tackle a hard but important topic in the JDM world — cars getting crashed and permanently removed from an already shrinking pool. As these vehicles age and values climb, every loss hits harder, especially when we’re talking about limited-production legends.

    We dive into the recent R’s Day crash that left a rare R34 GT-R heavily damaged in the rear, sparking big conversations across the community. We talk about what these incidents mean for overall production numbers, future values, restorability, and the responsibility that comes with driving historically important cars.

    This episode isn’t about blame — it’s about reality. Preservation vs. use, driving vs. protecting, and how each crash subtly reshapes the future of JDM culture.

    🎙️ As the numbers drop, the stakes rise — this is the uncomfortable side of loving rare cars.
