Just asking, are 4x4s a thing in JDM car culture? Is there a 4×4 that has the equivalent cult following of the Nissan r34 skyline gtr?

    Yeah but not really that type of SUV. Newer FJ cruiser was made for America basically. They got them in Japan so if it were a right hand drive that would be cool, but it looks like that one’s just a usdm fj. Now like a hilux surf, old school Mitsubishi Pajero or a jimny or something, hell yeah.

    It’d have to be the Hilux, Jimny, or Pajero… maybe the Prado.?
    They focused more on Rally than overlanding

    In Japan? If you’re out in the country side there are a LOOOOOOT of Land Cruisers and Jimneys. Probably like in the states where most of them never leave the pavement though.

    There’s a popular anime called Yuru Camp about girls who get into camping. According to my friend, since then camping and by extension, overlanding, exploded in popularity.
