Importing JDM Cars: Skyline R34 & Japanese Auctions

Why are used cars from Japan always in such pristine condition? (Hint: It involves school children and brooms). 🧹🇯🇵

In this episode, we sit down with Muhammad Azeem, former General Manager of MDK Japan and current JDM importer based in Northern Virginia. With over a decade of experience exporting cars to Russia, Africa, and South America, Muhammad shares the secrets of the Japanese auction houses and how he navigates the complex world of importing 25-year-old legends into the USA.

We dive deep into his personal garage, his dream car (the Nissan Skyline R34), and why he believes the Honda Integra DC2 has one of the greatest engines ever made.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• 🇯🇵 The JDM Difference: Why Japanese culture creates the cleanest used cars in the world (and the one flaw you might find: cigarette burns).
• 🏎️ The "Manly" Skyline: Muhammad's obsession with the Nissan Skyline R34 and the legendary RB26DETTengine.
• 🚢 The Import Process: How "Roll-on, Roll-off" shipping works and how you can get a JDM car delivered straight to your driveway.
• 💼 Facebook Marketplace Hustle: How Muhammad sold over 45 imported cars using only his personal Facebook profile.
• 🚗 First Car Stories: From a gifted Toyota Vitz (Yaris) to a hybrid Honda Insight, and his current weekend toy, the Honda Integra DC2.

Welcome to Automotive Nostalgia

Doug 0:02

Welcome back to all the cars I've loved before, your authoritative podcast on automotive nostalgia, where every car tells a story, every machine has a soul and every car has a culture. Time to plug in, dust off and get little grease and memories on your hands. Hey, uh, welcome back. It's been a while we've been off.

Doug 0:22

Uh and uh, let's see gosh I don't know if we've ever had gone this long weeks without recording. So of course I'm going to be rusty, but we'll just we'll make sure we maybe the most exciting thing the show has heard around the world, but we have some. Before you talk about our new international listeners in the Philippines, I'm going to tell you about the good folks listening in Hilton Head, south Carolina. I'm sure they are hitting the links while listening to us Frisco, texas, frisco, Texas and Elmira, new York, where I could be wrong on this, but I think Mark Twain was either born in Elmira, new York, or wrote a lot of his stories Connecticut, yankin, king Arthur's Court, et cetera. Elmira, new York. Welcome to new listeners from Elmira, of course. Maryland, which is where Doug is based. Baltimore, maryland, frederick, maryland, sykesville, maryland welcome, but I have to say a big international thank you. Yes, the show is heard around the world.

Doug 1:22

To our listeners in the Philippines specifically, want to get the name right Tagbilaran City in Bohol. Bohol is a province in the Philippines, so welcome. Feel free to drop us a line. Oh, wait, wait, let's be more specific. The city of Tagbilaran is a component city and capital of the province of Bohol in the Philippines. How do you like that partner. Love it. We are heard around the world. Love it. Well, welcome to everybody. Feel free to drop us a line. Getting on the show is as easy as sending an email and I always masquerade this when I say it. But linktree slash carsloved, linktree slash carsloved, l-i-n-k-t-r dot E-E slash carsloved, and it's the modern equivalent to. To me it's a switchboard, because you know everybody's presences. You're able to see where we are on Instagram, facebook. You know I'm not having a good hair day like you. You must have gotten your hair cut or something Looking fantastic.

Doug 2:27

I'm having a bad hair day, so I am wearing this 300Z hat, pretty stylish 300ZX hat that I stole from you last time I was there because I'm from, you know. I live in Florida, he lives in Maryland and when I visit it gets really cold. I'm forever stealing his jackets, scarves, hats, gloves, etc. And this one just made it. This is such a hat I'm fond of and, you know, by the time he realizes it's missing, I'm sitting on the beach in Pensacola.

Christian 2:55

I just realized it's missing.

Doug 2:57

Beautiful, if not sneaky things. See, exactly there it is. But on enough banter. Are we ready to introduce today's guests or what else do we have?

Christian 3:07

We are, but given that you have a Nissan 300ZX hat Nissan from Japan. Right, amen, you got it. I think it's only appropriate that this episode is going to be about JDM cars, and with us today we have Muhammad Azeem. Nobody knows JDM cars better than this guy. He is a importer of JDM cars, he spent some time in Japan and lives in Northern Virginia,

Meet Muhammad: JDM Expert

Christian 3:36

and I might be buying my first JDM car through him. Maybe, christian, we can talk you into it. But for those who've seen Fast and Furious franchise, this guy knows all the numbers and codes and he's plugged in. So, without further ado, mohamed, please introduce yourself.

Mohammad 3:57

Thank you for inviting me, doug, and so my name is as you have, I mean, everyone know my name is Muhammad Azeem and I was born in Karachi, pakistan, the economic hub of Pakistan, the metropolitan city, and in 2010, I got a job in a Japanese used car exporting company it was MDK Japan and they offered me if I can run their business as a general manager, so I took over that company and they offered me if I can run their business as a general manager, so I took over that company and then, from 2010 till 2022, when I moved to USA, I was, I mean, running their company and I was buying, I was bidding, I was selling cars all over the world in South America, in Northern America, in Russia, in Europe, in Africa, so all the mostly all the third world countries who cannot produce their own cars and they have to import cars from Japan and mostly those car, those countries who import right-hand driving cars.

Mohammad 4:58

So I was exporting cars and I was, I mean, in my job, dealing with the shipping companies, cars, and I was, I mean, in my job, dealing with the shipping companies, dealing with the exporters. I mean that was my job, so that I mean I came into this business of JDM cars and that's my intro.

Doug 5:17

That's so and I know Doug has some more questions, but I found it so interesting how, with the company that you're running, you found it very important to find, to have representatives that spoke the languages in the different company, different countries, that you run. Could you talk a little bit about that? That helps make things easier making inroads into those markets.

Mohammad 5:39

Yeah. So everyone who is listening and have been to Japan, they know that when they go to Japan they find it difficult. I mean, normally in Tokyo you will find people who can speak English, but you won't find people they even cannot say no. If a Japanese has to say no, he will make this style kind of no, that means no to them. So most of the exporters in Japan they find the sales people in Karachi, pakistan, because they can speak a lot of languages. You will find a Russian speaker, you'll find a German speaker and you'll find a Spanish speaker there. So they make their call center, they make their sales office there and then they run their companies, they outsource their companies.

Doug 6:22

Okay, and I'm sorry, doug, I didn't mean to jump in here, but Mohammed has this enthusiasm and energy that's infectious. I mean, I was about to take a nap before this show, but he's just got me so revved up. It's fantastic. Over to you, doug.

Christian 6:40

Yeah, no worries. And yeah, mohammed, my brother-in-law is Japanese. Yeah, no worries. And yeah, mohamed, my brother-in-law is Japanese. So he and I were. I'm sure you understand the phenomenon of living there. He's actually lived in the US longer than he lived in Japan. But I'm like, why are Japanese cars in such good shape, like these cars? Like Americans just beat the crap out of cars, it just happens, he said. He just said the Japanese just take really good care of their cars. They treasure them like a house, like furniture. Is that your feeling as well?

Mohammad 7:13

Yes, that's my feeling as well In the schools, in the Japanese schools, when the kids arrive at the school, the first 30 or 20 minutes is that they know do the broom and they just clean the school by themselves. Even I've seen the bank managers in the japan that they, when they came and they just clean everything. Uh, because when I was in in my office there was no concept of an office boy in japan. So that is why they it is their, it is their habit that they keep their cars very clean.

Christian 7:49

But, the only thing is that you will find in the Japanese car is the cigarette burn because they smoke Gotcha, gotcha. That's one downside, but that's the only one. So, speaking of Japanese cars and it seems like you've owned quite a few of them your very first car was a 2016 Toyota Vitz manual. If you would tell our listeners how you got the car I know in America it's called something else and you know all the internal codes but tell us how you acquired the car, how long you had it, any great stories about?

Mohammad 8:22

it. Yeah, so because when I started with that company, that company was not even under 10, like not in the top 10. So we started the sales and gradually we took it to the top 10. So the company's owner, mr Awan Arshad, he gifted me my first car. Oh wonderful. I sent it from Japan and I just received it at the Karachi port I cleared it and that was my first Yaris. So for the listeners, they know that in

Japanese Car Care Culture

Mohammad 8:52

Northern America it's a Yaris and there in Japan it's Wits.

Christian 8:56

Okay, wonderful, and you had that car for a while.

Mohammad 9:00

Yeah, and then I sold it and then they sent another yaris. Uh sorry, honda insight, which was hybrid and honda inside is, by the way, in america also with the name same on the inside. Yeah, that was my second.

Christian 9:14

It's a very sportish look, yeah yeah, yeah, it's kind of a sporty civic yeah, in america, right yeah yeah, exactly. And uh, I didn't ask what color was the Vitz and what color was the Insight. Okay, both they were silver. Silver, my favorite color.

Mohammad 9:34

Yeah.

Christian 9:36

True, true story.

Mohammad 9:38

Yeah.

Christian 9:39

True story so yeah here's a guy his company car is a company car, literally right, and then I think the car I think our listeners are going to be really excited about is a car that you probably imported yourself, I think into the United States. Maybe it's your daily driver. Can you tell us about it?

Mohammad 10:02

It's not my daily driver, but I just keep it for sometimes, maybe weekends, or the car shows. It's a Tegra, it's a non-type R, but it is manual shift, but it's a D2 engine, one of the greatest engine Honda has ever produced.

Christian 10:21

And that's a DC2, you said, right, yeah.

Mohammad 10:24

Okay, gotcha, yeah, and what's a?

Christian 10:25

DC two. You said right, yeah, okay, Gotcha, yeah. And what? What makes it the greatest engine I I'll take?

Doug 10:30

I was just I was just about to ask the same words coming out of my mouth. Sorry, go ahead, yeah.

Mohammad 10:37

Because of the reliability, because of the performance that makes the greatest engine, you know. But if you talk about in details, about the jdm engines mostly americans since our audience is mostly americans they are listening. They just love one jz gte engine. It comes in three cars mark two, crown uh, chaser and some other car it comes. So this is normally the guy they do the drifting, the guy they do the racing. They normally like that engine. Toyota. As per toyota, they say, is that they have ever produced two greatest engine. One of them is one jz gt and the second one is two jz gt which comes in the super right, right, yep, yep, yeah, um, yeah, yep, no, those are the engines to have legendary, right?

Christian 11:30

Do you think those cars were legendary before? I mean, I remember going to high school and I graduated in 1991, and a friend of mine had a Mark II Supra and I just thought that was the coolest car, I think 2.8 liter, inline 6. It was so cool, this would have been mid-80s. It was probably 86, 87. Okay.

Doug 11:59

Go ahead, Bob.

Christian 12:01

I think 87, 88 is when Mark III Super came out, so it was a little bit before that, if I'm correct, at least over here. It's a little bit different. And of course, some cars you were telling us before the show some cars stop being imported into the US or stop being made in the US, but they live out longer years overseas, for instance, like the RX-7, right, fd RX-7, which is also famous from Fast and the Furious. Yes, it is, yeah, sure, the RX-7, which is also famous from Fast and the Furious.

Mohammad 12:36

Yes, it was.

Doug 12:40

Yeah, sure, and we're going to have to pull in and talk about his website, the mdkjapancom. What do you remember about that, your buddy Supra from high school, doug?

Christian 12:51

So it was Mike Supra, I just remember he got it used. Yeah, I'm back, no problem. It's funny. I think he was a smoker back then. But it was just such a cool car. It had a sunroof, it had pop-up headlights, it was rear-wheel drive, it was a stick shift it was just such a cool car and I think we saw something similar when I was visiting you a few years ago that red Supra.

Doug 13:24

Come to find out. My middle son fell in with the owner of that car, a young man who has it, and he let my middle son. Yeah, he drove it right he drove it and I said, son, that, that that is a really special piece of history, the time capsule that you're driving, and he'd never been behind the wheel of anything like that. So a real treat. Go ahead, muhammad.

Mohammad 13:48

I think you were going to say something yeah, I think in my intro I just uh left one thing that uh, I mean people might think that I'm still sitting in, maybe, uh, in japan, but I am in usa, I'm in virginia and I came here in july 2022 and when I came here I was also went in depression that what I will do in america because I, my skill set is not as per the american market and the cars I see on the roads, they all are left-hand drive. So then I search and some people I just searched the JDM cars and I saw some

The Art of Importing Cars

Mohammad 14:21

JDM dealers. They are doing business in all over America, every state. I find two, three people, two, three dealers. So someone told me that there is a JDM car policy here that you can import 25 years old car in USA, usa. So I contacted my old company I still have very good contacts with them because I ended on a very good notes and they said okay, we can ship you over one car and let's see how it goes.

Mohammad 14:49

And I, I, I brought first our first r32, white with a big rear spoiler, and when it arrived on the baltimore port, I started. I just posted it on the facebook marketplace and in in just I mean some hours. I got a client from tampa, florida, and the guy said I need this car, don't sell it to anyone, and I said okay, no problem. So I just gave him the prize and he said okay, okay, and he was very happy with that car, you know.

Doug 15:21

Yeah, so that's a good point. And boy, you said something in it and several thoughts kind of hit me at once. So you bring. The nasty state of things is for you to bring cars into Port of Baltimore, huge port. But for the right customer that gets a hold of you and sees a car on your site can I give out your site at this point, mdkjapancom you can have it shipped directly to them. They don't have to wait for it to clear customs in Baltimore and then make it to Port Arthur, texas. That's not the way. So could you talk a little bit about that process and how you make that market?

Mohammad 15:58

Yes. So since after that first car I have imported over 60 cars. So now I'm experienced how to bring the car, how to find a broker, how to clear the car, how to pay the custom duties and how to arrange a transportation guy who can bring your car from the port to your home. So now from japan we we have two shipment styles. One is the container shipment and one is the rollo shipment. Rollo means roll on, roll off.

Mohammad 16:26

Your car goes like a parking, like when you go to the any parking plaza. So your car, your car goes in that vessel like in in that ship. It parks, and then it comes to the America, so it comes a stretch less car. So you have, I can ship the cars to the California, I can ship to Texas, I can ship to Savannah, georgia, I can ship to Jacksonville, florida, and I can ship it to the Baltimore and then we have a port in New York. So all the ports I can bring the cars. And then, if a customer needs the help, I have very good, reliable people here who can clear their cars, and I mean then I have team here who can transport their car to their driveway.

Doug 17:15

Yeah, and that's a good point. I remember when Doug bought his DeLorean a few years ago I think, he went to Chicago and checked it out and all this good stuff and then came back and then he had it shipped and I thought, oh, this is going to take forever and it was at his house very quickly and, just like you said, roll on, roll off, which was a beautiful thing. But, oh and Doug, I wanted to mention that this site, you can peruse the available stock here, but you can actually get in touch with Mohammed directly on Facebook and we'll probably we'll put all of this in the show notes, right, so that our so that our viewership, listenership, knows how to get ahold of him.

Christian 18:02

Yeah, lovely, yeah, yeah. So I I did want to ask Muhammad, and I think I know the story. By the way, muhammad, I own a 1990 Nissan 300ZX or not, non-fair lady z, but that was my dream car in high school that I got 30 years or some odd later. Um, but uh, how, uh, how is it for customers finding parts for these cars?

Mohammad 18:30

okay. So if you can search in google jdm parts dealer in in your state, you will find some some people, but suppose if you don't have, then I I can offer this services to anyone who who wants to find any parts in japan. I have a team in japan, so normally, if, uh, I can find that part and I can, uh, I can ship it to you. So that's not a problem, gotcha.

Christian 18:57

And just just because, um, because it's Nissan, toyota and many of these cars were imported here anyway, but they were left-hand drive, of course. There a lot of the parts are interchangeable, correct.

Mohammad 19:11

Yeah.

Christian 19:12

Yeah, so there there's a good source of parts for engines and those types of things, certainly things that are unique to left-hand

Dream Cars and Skyline Love

Christian 19:18

drive, right-hand drive that they're going to have to go to you or find another source To bring from Japan yeah. Yeah, wonderful.

Mohammad 19:29

Normally the cars which I import I go with the 4 and 4.5 good cars because I don't have any mechanical team here in USA. I mean I don't bring accidental cars or any mechanical issue, engine check, light car so that my mechanic team can do it and then I place it for sale. Normally I bring very clean cars. So for till now I know customers has ever contacted me for any parts yet. But but still suppose if someone will contact me or anyone they need any part, I can source it from Japan. That's not a problem.

Christian 20:03

Okay, gotcha Good to know.

Doug 20:06

And if you, oh, I just had to ask about and Doug is, we're in some mind meld today, Doug, because you're saying a question that's on the tip of my tongue, the opposite is happening. But, Mohammed, I got to know what is your dream car okay.

Mohammad 20:24

So when I came here and I when I imported the skylines, then my car eventually became the r34, uh, skyline. It has the rb26 dett engine, which nissan says one of the best engine they have ever produced. Yeah, uh, because of their reliability. I mean, it's a man, it's, it's a manly car like you can uh, you can as for your own style and everything. Because of their performance and tuning. You can do the tuning as per you. So that is why I mean, whenever I bring any car, I just do the test drive of all the skylines rb20, I mean r32, r33 and now I'll be importing r34. So, so, whenever I take a test drive, you know I fall in love with the Skyline.

Doug 21:14

Talking to you is like talking to an automotive Wikipedia. It is so beautiful, all the details you know and your enthusiasm. It's fantastic. But I got to ask you what's it like driving that Skyline? What's it like? What's it like driving that Skyline? What's it like? What's it like sitting in there?

Mohammad 21:30

I mean it's you know you can say that it's not that much automatic, so it's a person who knows how to drive a manual shift. It's a manly car, like when you your road grip, and I mean, if you can manage it, if you can control it, that's, that's the fastest. I mean I mean engine and the I mean everything like I. I mean I'm unable to explain the beauty of Skyline, yeah.

Doug 22:00

Interesting, got it, got it, oh yeah so. So, oh, the uh, cars and coffee, so, oh yeah. So you also have a really neat car that I've always, uh, I thought was pretty fantastic the Integra, a late nineties Integra. I had a three, two TL the same vintage. But talk a little bit about that car, integra, and do you like to go to cars and coffee and in in in habit as a conversation starter?

Mohammad 22:32

Yeah, I'm a little bit weak in that because, um, normally I don't go um because I mean a lot of people, they find me, uh my cars on Facebook marketplace and then they send me invitation if I can come. So I was thinking that I should go, but uh, it's just my weakness that I've never oh, I see you just haven't been to one yet.

Doug 22:56

Oh, talk a little bit more about how somebody can reach you on Facebook. Of course we'll put that in the show notes to make it a little easier, but we were talking earlier and you said some people I would. I would think that one of the biggest barriers in your line of work is hey, is Mohammed for real? Is he? For? When I see him on Facebook, he kind of you know, so forward and all this knowledge and he seems like a scammer. But Mohammed is very real. This is how he makes his living. And talk a little bit about dealing with people on Facebook and how you show that you're for real.

Mohammad 23:24

Yeah, so, since I'm new, this is again my weakness, that I've never been able to make my tiktok or instagram page. I'm just, uh, you know, I'm marketing all my cars on the facebook marketplace, so and I try to boost my ads. Uh, someone told me that you should go to the b8 b8, bring a trailer and cars for bid. There are some other websites. They offer the live auction of your cars, but I mean they ask for a lot of things, like more than 200 pictures, then the title of the car and a lot of things.

Mohammad 24:02

So I just, rather, I try to post my cars on the Facebook marketplace and, trust me, facebook marketplace is one of the biggest uh, right now that all my cars, more than 45 cars I have been able to sell from facebook marketplace. So definitely I do not go to any second source. Uh, that I should, I should go, but so, um, I mean I just post it from my personal id, muhammad Azeem. I mean I will share it with Doug and I mean he can share it in the caption yeah, yeah absolutely yeah, go ahead, doug.

Christian 24:36

No, yeah, no, just agreeing, and in fact that's how Muhammad and I found each other. I saw he had a Honda Beat, although I think I'm more interested in a Nissan PAL P-A-O, a really neat little car that you don't see many of them. I actually have seen a few Honda Beats in the US, but yeah, that's how I found them on Facebook Marketplace.

Doug 25:00

So small world.

Building a JDM Business

Doug 25:03

That is fantastic, fantastic. And so, as we ramp down here and get ready to close the show and guide the car, guide the show gently to the off ramp, I have to ask you, mohamed, one last question when do you get your energy?

Mohammad 25:17

I get my energy because I have a family, so I just I see my kids. It automatically boosts me and I don't need any. You know the energy drinks to do.

Doug 25:31

You don't need any of it, man, but I tell you, talking to you is like drinking two Red Bulls. You have this energy and this enthusiasm that I just love, and I would love to have you back on the show every so often to hear how your business is going. But I love your style and enthusiasm.

Mohammad 25:49

Let me tell you something very interesting. Those guys who work in the auction ask them that they cannot whenever they are sleeping. They are not sleeping, actually, they are, I mean, they are just getting up. So when, in Japan, you have the cars to bid, it's just like it's just like a habit, it's just like a passion. You have the cars to bid. It's just like it's just like a habit, it's just like a passion you have. So every day, when you have to, you select some cars and you have to bid those cars. I mean that's really automatically. Energy comes in in you. And when you actually buy a car in japan, when you have, when you want more than 197 countries of the world and more than I mean a lot of companies, everyone is bidding that car. And when you buy that car, that this gives you, I mean kind of a what do you say? Energy, that okay, a rough yeah, like a treasure.

Doug 26:39

It's almost like you've won a prize or you found the treasure. You, you, you have to compete. You have, you eat what kill. You have to compete for everything you get.

Mohammad 26:48

Yeah, yeah. So I mean, when I came here, so some of my customers in Guyana, in Suriname, in South America, they approached me and they said that we are looking for Tacoma from USA. And I approached one of the guy here who has the dealership, I said, buy two Tacoma. And when he bought and that gives me again that energy.

Doug 27:09

So it's so funny that, mohamed, now you're reading my thoughts, I was going to ask you one last question.

Doug 27:14

So not only do you bring cars here and have them on offer, you will look for a car for someone You'll keep an eye out Somebody can reach out to you and say, hey, I know this is your line of work, this is kind of what I'm looking for. So, for everyone listening and watching on YouTube, reach out to him because he can act as your broker, he can keep his eyes out for you and he'll be aware of things and find things that you never would have found on your own, because Mohammed thinks about this 24 hours a day, yeah, maybe 25. Hours a day, yeah.

Mohammad 27:46

Maybe 25. I'm importing as well as I'm exporting cars here from USA. So I mean, in future I'm planning to export a lot of pickup truck to Trinidad, to Jamaica, to Guyana, because I have a customer base there, because I've been involved in sales also in these four countries, so I have my personal clientele in those countries. So, yeah, that's my future plans.

Doug 28:13

Well, I can't wait to see how it unfolds. I want to welcome you here. Anything we can ever do for you, let us know. We're going to spread the word, and Mohamed is so wonderful and easy to deal with it. Reach out to him, just shoot him a message. Hey, introduce yourself and go to that site I'm going to give it again MDK, marydougkjapancom, mdkjapancom, and you'll see so many interesting, well-priced cars. And then you reach out to Mohamed and it's really been wonderful to meet you. Thank you for your time. I had a blast.

Christian 28:48
