Alrighty, finally got through to the photos from this past weekend's Bay Area S2000 Showoff BBQ/Show. It's not much but it kinda gives you guys an idea of what showed up to the meet. In total I think there were over thirty cars that came through but I only got shots of about fifteen or... Continue Reading →
Bay Area S2ki Showoff: Hanzel Tango’s 無限 S2000
Subtle, unique..... exceptional. These are three words that comes to mind when I'm trying to describe this immaculate 無限 S2000. Of course if you're in the show scene or frequent the S2000 forums, chances are you've seen this S2k yourself and had some contact with its owner, Hanzel Tango. Hanzel has been hitting the show...

Bay Area S2ki Showoff: Rio Nice!
Churning out some more photos from this past weekend's Bay Area S2ki meet tonight, and next up is this mint Rio Yellow S2000 with all the right parts. This is one of those cars that put the term "less is more" into real perspective. You take one quick look at this car and you can... Continue Reading →
Bay Area S2ki Showoff: Circuit Spec Suzuka
So this past weekend the Bay Area S2ki guys had a little pot luck and get together at Baylands Park in Sunnyvale, CA and being a long time S2000 owner myself, I felt an obligation and need to show up. And I'm glad I did. I love this particular meet cause it was just so... Continue Reading →
Mugen Flavored Suzuka
I always seem to repeat this notion, but a lot of times keeping things simple goes a long ways. Case in point, this simple and gorgeous JDM Suzuka Blue S2000. With this car, you can literally count the aftermarket parts on one hand, but because these are well chosen parts (i.e. Mugen M7) it makes... Continue Reading →
JDM 360 Modena x RSV Forged
Here we have a super simple but very gorgeous Ferrari 360 Modena out in Japan. I'm lovin' the RSV Forged wheels on this relatively tame beauty. Photos via MINKARA
Mine’s 2.8L R34 GTR: For Paul
It's probably safe to say that this past weekend was a pretty emotional one with the opening of Furious 7. If you haven't seen the movie yet, you'd know the feels I'm referring to after you watch it. This past few days, whenever I hear Wiz Khalifa's See You Again, or watch clips of the... Continue Reading →
A Simple Se7en
This RX7 have always gotten love from me, that's why I choose to post this car up on numerous occasions. I just love the simplicity and execution of this car; the insane drop and Work Kiwamis just elevates this FD's prowess on a whole other level. Photos via MINKARA
Killin’ The Game: Garage Teranishi S15
In my years of blogging I've seen so many great cars and builds, and there's always that few, that leaves me speechless. I just found one of them. When talking about Silvias and 240s, most likely than not, we're talking about cars with a few fender benders or even minor cosmetic damages; rarely do we... Continue Reading →
For Love of Scaled Models #1: Mugen ITR
I've been doing this blog for nearly five years now, so I thought it's about time to spice it up a bit. As most of you can tell, this blog is all about automobiles (Japanese mostly), and I thought it would be appropriate to add a new category of posts that would generate interest for...

RE雨宮 GT-AD FD3S
RE Amemiya FDs are abundant these days but that doesn't mean you can't find a special one out there. Case in point is this GT-AD wide body RX7 from Japan, rocking the RE kit along with the C-West DRFT front bumper, which I think fits perfectly. Photos via Yahoo Auctions Lovin' the Work Emotion CR...

Amuse S2K Attack!
This is a pretty straight forward post with a gorgeous Powerhouse Amuse wide body S2000 doing a little time attack at Takasu Circuit in Fukui, Japan. Photos via MINKARA
Auto Produce BOSS STi Spec C
Saw this gem of a car on Yahoo Japan and I knew I gotta get a post started for this beauty. This is actually AP Boss' demo car and is currently for sale for a ridiculous price of less than 15K U.S. I say ridiculous cause this monster's got some tasteful (expensive) mods. Starting from...

Built For Tough: Bulletproof R33 GTR
Although not making an insane amount of power (650HP).....This JDM R33 GTR is literally bulletproof. And when I say bulletproof, I'm talking JUN pistons and rods and a balanced crankshaft capable of handling well over 800+HP. The rest of the car is well.....self explanatory with the help of some classic bronze TE37 linked up to... Continue Reading →
Amuse Affair
Going a little back to basics with this classic 350Z look. I'm talking a full Powerhouse Amuse affair with the ever so iconic CE28 in Mercury Silver. Photos via Yahoo Auctions
Red Hot Evo
While browsing the web, I stumbled upon this gorgeous Evo 8 today. This is pretty much a Varis and HKS affair. Lot of Varis on the outside and lots of HKS on the inside... Photos via Kurumaerabi Varis front bumper, canards, and side diffusers. Lovin' the bronze RE30s! Varis rear diffuser, trunk, and Voltex combo... Continue Reading →
Road Less Traveled: Veilside FD3S RX-7
Normally when people talk about Veilside RX7s, usually the first thing that pops in my mind is a Fortune kitted FD. I tend to forget that Veilside actually made a "normal" body kit for the RX7 cause frankly, you don't really see them around. Needless to say, most modified FDs out there is either RE-Amemiya...
