JDM Legends

Eric Bizek started his business in SLC 10+ years ago, and now he's one of the only restorers of imported Japanese Domestic Market cars in the US. In this episode, a Datsun 240-Z gets a complete restoration and Eric imports an '86 Toyota Levin.

Eric and the team at JDM Legends have been importing the rare Nissan Skyline to the U.S. since they opened their doors, and sometimes they never know what they are going to get. Eric also imports a super rare 1966 Bluebird race car to restore.

With a sketchy hood, misaligned badges and the wrong wheels, a 72 Skyline GT-X direct from Hawaii rolls into the shop for a serious upgrade. A 1970 Bluebird with a top-notch racing engine arrives for a quick clean up before delivery to its owner.

Eric and Josh put the finishing touches on a 1968 Datsun 510; Mauricio tries to feed his car addiction with the potential purchase of a new old car; and Eric gets a 1989 Nissan Pao dialed in for a customer with help from a new copilot.

Eric and Josh attempt to replace an original carbureted engine with a modern Nissan engine triple the horsepower and triple the headache. Then the guys head to sunny California for the biggest Japanese car show in the US.

Eric and the team begin a full frame up restoration on the most sought after and valuable car in the JDM world the Nissan Skyline GT-R.
