Time Attack Motoring
So I've finally caught up with most of my Japan photos from back in October, there's still a few strays that I need to bundle up into a post, but this is the last stop from my most recent stay in JDM land. Yashio Factory wasn't on my list of shops to visit but I... Continue Reading →
Before I conclude my R's Day coverage, I want to take some time to talk about some other cars that were present at Laguna Seca during the event. Besides the GTRs, there were also a large volume of FRS' and BRZs as 86 Cup was also hosting their NorCal vs. SoCal time attack competition. Most... Continue Reading →

While on my last trip to Japan, my friends and I made plans to head over to Odaiba and check out the life-sized Gundam that's on display.

Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to hit up the famous Daikoku Futo PA on my recent trip to Japan, so these few Tsukuba hard parker photos will have to do. There were actually a lot more notable cars in the parking area, but I was too anxious to head towards the paddock area so... Continue Reading →
Welp, here we are, the end of the line on my Tsukuba coverage, well maybe not quite but this is the end of it for the most part. I really wish my memory card didn't malfunction cause there was so much more that I wanted to show you guys. Regardless, I'm pretty content with what... Continue Reading →
It's hard to believe that the R34 GTR is close to approaching 20 years old in just a few years. Still, with 276+ HP from the factory and an advance AWD system, this car has remained a tuner's go-to platform in Japan and around the world til this day. To me, one of the greatest... Continue Reading →

But like all things in... Continue Reading →
