In this thrilling episode of Hoonigan, the team ventures from Tokyo's concrete jungle to the rugged terrain of Mount Fuji for an exhilarating overlanding escapade with Mr. Alo and his remarkable Subaru Forester STI. This isn't your average Forester; it's a Japanese exclusive packing a punch with its 265 horsepower ej25 engine, Brembo brakes, and Cusco coilovers. The team delves into the vehicle's unique features, from the aftermarket wing and fujitsubo exhaust to the convenient roof tent perched atop the car.
But wait, there's more! Black Rhino introduces the Mitsubishi Delica, a turbo diesel powerhouse perfect for off-road adventures. With all-wheel drive capabilities and stylish black rhino wheels, this minivan proves to be a reliable companion for the journey. As the team sets up camp against the picturesque backdrop of Mount Fuji, they reflect on the joys of overlanding in Japan, navigating winding roads and embracing Subaru's rich rally heritage.
Despite the bone-chilling cold, the team finds solace in each other's company, sharing laughs and creating unforgettable memories under the starlit sky. Setting up tents becomes a comical affair, with jokes and banter echoing through the frosty air. As they settle in for the night, surrounded by the majestic mountains and the looming presence of Mount Fuji, the team basks in the camaraderie forged through shared experiences in the great outdoors.
