There exists, in an anonymous industrial estate near to one of Britain’s major airports, an Aladdin’s cave of JDM wonder.
It’s called HJA (Harlow-Jap-Autos) and is run by two brothers who have grown it into an internationally renowned business that imports specialist Japanese models to the UK.
You’ll find Imprezas, Evos, RX-7s and Supras inside, but HJA’s bread and butter is the Nissan Skyline GT-R. There’s always a full spectrum of R32, R33 and R34s on offer, from untouched standard cars to outrageous tuned models built by some of Japan’s premier tuning houses.
When Top Gear Magazine’s Tom Ford visited, there was also a rather special NISMO CRS, Europe’s one and only, with a price tag not far shy of seven figures. Look but don’t touch, Tom…

Name your favourite JDM tuner car 👇
Are you very much mistaken?
Just as I was thinking this collection could do with a 400R it shows up on the screen in front of me. Great collection and would be really hard to choose one from all of them.
I came here to see Jeremey Clarkson. where is our jeremy?
Why did you not feature the JUN super lemon?! haha just glossed over that one. What an amazing collection! Thanks for sharing. The auto select R33 is a gem, and why they sold smokey's drag r33 I will never know.
Oh wow 😳 that's an awesome collection of JDM cars there! I'd definitely take that V6 R34, so cool 😊👍🏼
I'd love to visit this place but im sure I'd burst into tears if I was ever told of the price of any one of them
This is hopeless since you fired Jeremy 🤣🤣 what a mistake !
z-tune❤
Watching this in 4k is just superior
Are you going to visit JP Performance?
lol this guy doesn't know about the 276bhp.
Before the Skyline R32 to R34, the Ford Cosworths were the obvious choice to go like baboons.
People who think old top gear is better than new top gear
👇
I’d always wondered where the R35 powered R34 went
JDM power
I was waiting to see the 400R! Smokey's gold car is in Australia getting re-done by Andrew from Motive video I believe! He calls it project no secrets
Jeeeeeeeezzzzzzssssussss! Man o man all those cars 😭 gorgeous!
❤ cool .. Wichita Kansas 2024
That R33 400R 😍🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was thinking of selling my R34 GTR and possibly get a supercar, watching this video makes me want to keep it a bit longer 🙂
😍😍😀
If I saw that many legendary R34's at once I would probably have a heart attack!
