Walking up to Garage Defend, you are immediately greeted by a sea of R34s, R33s, and R32s. While they do carry other iconic JDM machines like the Silvia S15, it is clear that the GT-R is their bread and butter.

There is a specific kind of reverence you feel when walking into the Nismo Omori Factory. This isn't just a showroom; it’s the heartbeat of Nissan’s racing and heritage programs. Even before I made it through the doors, the atmosphere was electric, with people already crowding around the DC2 Integra I drove there—proof that the JDM passion transcends brand lines.
