Osaka Views | RO Explore

Throw back to when I was in Japan for the United Royals show and the crew went to a sky tower in Osaka to check out some city lights.

Look out poses.

You could see everything from up here. I’ll let the photos speak for themselves.

A photo shoot up here would’ve been cool if we were more prepared.

IPhone lights work pretty well.

The feels.

Somebody to love.

Apparently the coolest restroom hallway ever to Sara.

Bomb pineapple soft serve.

Making a sticker out of this..

Sara and Barry.

Davin the umbrella guy.

Elevator bokeh.

Me and Ross figuring out what to eat and who to roster on my fantasy football team.

Nasty.

Nastier.

Nastiest.

Delightful.

The best. Yakisoba and a sunny side up egg.

Ending it on a good note with this soft serve waffle ice cream sandwich.

Our Favorites at United Royals | Car Feature

It seems like every year I attend the United Royals show it rains! Maybe, I’m bad luck but the hurricanes and tsunamis always hit Japan when I’m here in September. Other than the rough rain, the show was pretty lively with a ton of car enthusiasts still checking out the car show. Even with so many people out at the show there were still some cars that caught my attention. Here are some of my favorites at the show…

The Low n Slow Japan S14 on Work Seeker wheels looked so good wet in the rain.

I love me some aggressive body kits combined with a dark clean paint job makes an incredible looking car.

How the owner keeps it looking pristine this low static? The world will never know.

This SC430 is amazing. The fitment, the wheel selection and the stance is so well put together.

This car is on bags and that is the reason why the fitment is beyond on point and so even all around.

This car makes you want to own a SC430 even though it looks like a ton of work to make it look like this. It would be worth it in the end to have this in your garage.

The Bad Quality S2000 with custom fitted flares is a big blue of awesomeness.

This S2000 has so much custom work done you have to respect it even if wide body isn’t your thing.

Love all of the Bad Quality cars and this one is no exception.

They achieve both of these goals with this S2000.

The Level One S14 is an instant classic with the Vertex kit and Volk TE-37 SL.

This is probably the farthest I would ever go with a S14 and that’s because there’s so little more you can do to this car to make it perfect because it already is.

There are so many ways to have great fitment, but having your fender tucked right in between the rim is the most gangster way.

The white and gold combo on the Work Meister is so classic and WORKS perfectly on this TSX.

This RX-8 is on our radar just because it’s so damn ridiculous. Wide body, wide wheels and extreme camber will make it hard to ignore this car.

Another mind boggling car that we don’t understand how it even moves on the streets.

Look how wide the rear wheel is!

Spirit Rei on a S13 is all I have to say. This body kit makes the car and with this wheel combination it doesn’t get better than this.

That static rear fitment with the silver face and bronze lip Work Meister is so awesome.

Wish there were more Spirit Rei cars here in the states. Someone make it happen!

Here are some notable cars that were in the parking lot that I wanted to show.

Shout out to the Dropper Crew for rocking Royal Origin and HOODRATstuff shirts and shout out to United Royals for throwing a great event and for the hospitality!

RO in Japan | Osaka

While we were in Japan, Sara gave us a tip that we should go meet up with her friend Ty from Hectopascal in Osaka. Ty is someone to hit up if we wanted to go around Japan doing bad things. We woke up early and took the first bullet train to Osaka to see the south style of Japan.

Ty was cool enough to come pick us up in his shakotan S14.

That rear fitment is insane. I can’t believe we were going to try to fit 4 guys in this car..

Ty’s friend, Hiromitsu was nice enough to be the extra car to take us back to Ty’s shop.

A quick drive over some bridges in Ty’s car took us what felt like a minute to get to his shop.

Ty’s shop, Hectopascal stocks tons of cool State wide stuff from Hawaii to California.

You can see clothing brands such as Illest, Moral Fibers, JSPIRIT and Inf4mation at his shop.

He also has his own shop brand of t -shirts.

Cool a play on Hawaii vehicle inspection stickers.

He even has the mounts to make it look legit on your car. I should’ve bought one when I had the chance.

Neel copped one for the LS400.

American soap brands, license plate frames and air fresheners.

Wondering how he got this Chevron light up sign and made it look cool.

This clothing stand setup is pretty sick. Hopefully, soon it’ll be our t-shirts on that stand.

Coilovers to display t-shirts?!

OG Illest rugs.

Parked in front an S13 on Work VSKFs just chilling.

Hiromitsu’s E36 is pretty damn clean and the fitment all around is perfect. Hiromitsu use to own the Minty Evo on Work Cr-Kai’s. Crazy I took a photo of it when I was in Japan last year at United Royals..

Blingage.

That rear fitment…. So good.

All dat ass.

Another day in Osaka. After doing some bad things, we departed from the awesome shop for Osaka Castle.

Majestic as fuck…

It was my first time seeing a castle like this or a castle at all actually. Made me want to go fight someone on the roofs crouching tiger hidden dragons style.
