This is definitely one of the most subtle wide body STis that I've ever laid eyes on. I actually love the combination of the Varis wide fenders on a relatively stock bodied STi; and those 18x10 BBS LMs fill in those wheel gaps perfectly.

[Event Coverage] Cars & Coffee SF 9/5/15 [Part 1]
Better late than never! Finally decided to get some of the C&C SF photos up on the site from over a week ago. I was actually not planning to go because I usually see the same cars at other Bay Area events but I got word that a Koenigsegg Agera R was gonna make an... Continue Reading →
Gangsta as F**k
Beautiful Midnight Purple R34 GTR, complete with 500 HPs and a killer exterior. If this is not gangsta, I don't know what is. Photos via Yahoo Auctions Midnight Purple looks absolutely amazing with black TE37s. Volk TE37 and Brembo 6-pot BBK. Clean and mild engine bay and interior.
That White Noise: Rocket Bunny Z33
I know a lot of people in the car community is probably tired of all the Rocket Bunnies and Liberty Walk cars that have saturated the scene in recent years, and I know I'm guilty of being one of them. But with that said, it doesn't mean every Liberty Walk and Rocket Bunny car looks... Continue Reading →
Family Outing: GTR Style
Six GTRs going out for a group drive in Japan...... If only I could join in as well..... Photos via MINKARA That early morning meet up. 34s.
For Love of Scaled Models #4: BN Sports NSX
It's been quite a while since I've done one of these posts, but seeing that it's #modelcarmondays, it's only fitting that I throw up a beautiful model car up here. Photos via FLICKR Using a Tamiya base model, the BN Sports kit with Gramlights 57Xtreme wheels makes this model look like the real deal! I... Continue Reading →
Minimal Perfection
I honestly don't remember how many times I've posted this car on the blog, but when something is this perfect, you can't help it but keep posting about it. The thing that really drew me to this RX7 has always been its simplicity and the perfect utilization of minimal modifications to achieve a look that... Continue Reading →
Altezza Racer
Ever since the second and third generation IS were introduced, the aging IS300/Altezza has slowly faded into history. However, this doesn't mean it's become completely irrelevant in the import scene, not when this JDM RS200 is still around and kicking. This Altezza is probably one of, if not the sickest privately owned example in the... Continue Reading →
Classic J’s
Being a former S2000 owner myself, I've pretty much seen every exterior mod possible for the car and the J's Racing Type S kit still remains one of my favorite of all time. Of course, this particular S is only rocking the Type S front end along with other J's racing goodies like the hood... Continue Reading →
The Cullen Cheung S2K
I met up with Cullen Cheung a couple weeks ago while I was in Seattle for the day and managed to snap a few photos of his gorgeous Amuse wide body S2k before I took off. Besides the car though, I'm actually pretty glad we got to meet up because I'm always up for establishing... Continue Reading →
Straight Outta Japan: 600 HP Midnight Purple GTR
As cliché a title this is, I thought it was appropriate for one of Japan's finest automotive creation, the R34 GTR. This pristine Midnight Purple example is one of the latest offering that's up for grabs through Global Auto, and this thing is packing some heat! Not only is the Midnight Purple version limited to...

F80 M3 x Agio Wheels
I'm loving the simplicity of this gorgeous F80 M3 on rare Agio Precisione PKR wheels. Agio is a U.S./Japan based custom built forged wheel company in case any of you were wondering... Photos via MINKARA
The Route Best Travelled: BBS LM Equipped R34 GTR
I gotta say, there are very few cars that can surpass the presence of 560 HP of R34 goodness. And Global Auto of Japan always have a few pristine samples up for grabs! Photos via Yahoo Auctions Can't really tell from the photo, but this RB26 is an HKS masterpiece with forged internals and twin... Continue Reading →
[Event Coverage] Spocom Norcal 2015 [Part 3 End]
Throwing up the rest of the Spocom Norcal shots up here tonight and finishing up my little impression on the show. As I said in the previous post, the venue was very clustered and unorganized with distractions lined throughout the show (which you can see in some of the photos). But I honestly wouldn't mind...

[Event Coverage] Spocom Norcal 2015 [Part 2]
Got a few more shots of Spocom Norcal up tonight. This particular post consists of mostly the Speed Element guys that's been a staple in many Bay Area shows the past few years. So prepare for lots of STis and Evos... of course there's a few other makes and models in between... Photos by Marco... Continue Reading →
[Event Coverage] Spocom Norcal 2015 [Part 1]
Finally getting through to the Spocom Norcal photos from last weekend, and it's not much but it's better than nothing. I actually wasn't really motivated to take photos that day, because I honestly had higher expectations from Spocom, but the show didn't really live up to the name. Of course, it wouldn't be fair for... Continue Reading →
[Event Coverage] Hot Import Nights 2015 *San Jose Edition*
Better late than never! Finally caught up with my posts this week with the few photos that I took from HIN San Jose a couple weekends back. My impression of this show was not very positive and I thought it was lacking in some degree to other big name events. Of course, there were some... Continue Reading →
