iM Shop Spotlight: Backyard Special

Today we’re going to be sharing some pictures from Galen’s stop at one of my personal favorite JDM Honda Tuners, Backyard Special. I remember reading a story in Honda Tuning a while back about Hatsuo Suzuki the CEO of Backyard Special and his love for Honda’s from the very beginning. The way the story was written I got the feeling that he just loves what he does and I think it really shows in the products they continue to produce.

He opened this shop back in 1983 and has been tuning Honda’s in the same location since then.

As usual for all the JDM shops space is not plentiful. Also peep the S600, Hatsuo’s favorite Honda.

There was also a couple other Honda’s parked outside on display.

And then at the end of his visit Mr. Suzuki gave Galen a ‘spirited’ drive back to the train station in the company CRZ.
