Japfest Nearly Broke Me | Redline Republic EP15

The Problem With Show Cars | Redline Republic Podcast EP19

In Episode 19 of the Redline Republic Podcast, Dan and Badger tackle one of the biggest debates in the car scene: would you rather own a spotless show car or a rougher car with real character? We discuss why some enthusiasts spend years chasing perfect paint, spotless engine bays and show trophies, while others would rather drive, modify and enjoy their cars without worrying about every stone chip and scratch. From EK9 Civics and Kanjo-style builds to track cars, drift cars and daily drivers, we break down what makes a car truly special. We also talk about the unbelievable moment Drift Games mentioned the podcast, the ongoing Corolla saga, NCT struggles, upcoming events, listener questions and some of the automotive stories that could only happen in Ireland. Whether you're into JDM cars, drifting, track days, car shows, Honda Civics, Toyota Corollas, Irish car culture or just enjoy two lads talking absolute shite about cars, there's something in this episode for you. Topics covered: * Show cars vs track cars * JDM car culture * Honda Civic EK9 discussion * Kanjo-style builds * Drift Games mention Redline Republic * Irish drifting scene * Toyota Corolla updates * NCT struggles * Car show season * Listener questions * Irish automotive stories If you enjoy the podcast, make sure to follow, subscribe and share it with a friend. #redlinerepublicpodcast #jdm #hondacivic #ek9 #drifting #irishcars #carpodcast #toyotacorolla #trackcar #showcar #irishdrifting #automotivepodcast Flow by Alex-Productions | https://onsound.eu/ Royalty Free Music by https://www.free-stock-music.com Creative Commons / Attribution 3.0 Unported License (CC BY 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US

Underglow Needs To Come Back | Redline Republic Podcast EP18

Episode 18 is here. This week started with a debate on whether underglow should make a comeback and somehow turned into E11 Corollas, Bora prices, raffle cars, insurance stories and complete chaos. In this episode we got into: * Should every modified car have underglow? * E11 Corolla vs Bora * Why Bora prices have gone completely mental * Raffle wins and car scene stories * Why people insist on doing 60 in an 80 * Somehow ending up talking about catching chickens As usual, it started as a car podcast and ended up going completely off the rails. Listen now and let us know what side you're on — underglow or no underglow?

Car Mods That Should Be Illegal | Episode 17

Episode 17 of the Redline Republic Podcast is here. This week we go down an absolute rabbit hole talking about the worst car mods we’ve ever seen, fake bonnet vents, massive wings, green brake calipers, OEM wheels, raffle cars, and some of the things that should genuinely be banned from the car scene. We also debate who makes the best OEM wheels, discuss strange convertible choices, and somehow end up talking about tractor raffles… because the podcast never stays on track for long. If you're into the Irish car scene, drifting, modified cars, JDM, German cars, funny stories and two lads talking complete shite in a shed, you’re in the right place.

Japfest Nearly Broke Me | Redline Republic EP15

Welcome back to the 15th episode of the Redline Republic Podcast. This one nearly didn’t happen… and neither did the Corolla. In this episode we get into one of the most frustrating weeks we’ve had with a car. From fighting seized parts, chasing tyres and batteries all over the country, nearly giving up the night before, and questioning why we even bother… to somehow ending up at Japfest anyway. Dan was genuinely on the edge of selling the Corolla after this week. If you’ve ever had a car test your patience, drain your time, and still somehow make you love it again 5 minutes later — you’ll understand this one. We also talk about Japfest, the level of builds in Ireland right now, the difference between show cars and track cars, and why some cars just feel impossible to let go of no matter how much they fight you. If you’re into cars, builds, drifting, or just the reality of owning something that constantly tries to break you… this episode will hit home. New episodes every week.
