Time Attack Motoring
After having attended about a dozen or so time attack events here in the U.S. over the years (mainly at Buttonwillow), I realized that there's a handful of teams or shops that always show up with car(s) that are both well tuned and aesthetically pleasing. Some of these teams include Evasive Motorsports, Snail Performance, Go... Continue Reading →
I've been attending local car shows (Bay Area) for close to a decade now and I think it's finally time to call it quits as it's becoming more repetitive than inspirational. Sure, there are still some great builds popping up from time to time but these are becoming few and far between. This notion that... Continue Reading →
Ahhhhh, finally a new post on the site after a month long hiatus... I've been spending a lot of time lately doing landscape photography and haven't attended any automotive events in awhile which resulted in the lack of updates on the site. So... since Spocom SF was local to me, I decided to head out... Continue Reading →
Before I begin, I should point out that I probably took photos of about 30% of the cars at Wekfest SJ, so calling this a "coverage" is a bit far fetched but to maintain the quality standard of this site, I will only post my personal favorites on here. As some of you may have... Continue Reading →
Continuing on from last week's post, this time let's take a peek inside the Type One shop, although so many people and blogs have taken pictures from there, most of us pretty much know the whole layout of the place. Because of this reason, I was actually debating on skipping Type One altogether, but then... Continue Reading →
Continuing from my last post, let's take a closer look at the Powerhouse Amuse squad of cars that was littered throughout their lot. After, we'll move inside the shop and check out some titanium goodness. Photos by MoMoHitsTheSpot! Squad goals much? This was actually a customer's car that was rocking all sorts of bling, including... Continue Reading →
Moving on to my next stop on my shop quest, I paid a visit to non other than the titanium factory, Powerhouse Amuse. This was actually the furthest shop on my list but it was well worth it, more so than even ASM Autobacs. Located in Kisarazu, Chiba Prefecture, Powerhouse Amuse has been producing some...

Here we are, a continuation from my last post, this time around let's check out the inside of the famous ASM HQ. Photos by MoMoHitsTheSpot! First step inside, another fitting slogan to live by. Then, a quick turn to your right and you're greeted by one of the most beautiful sights in the world. The... Continue Reading →
Following my visit to Garage G-Force, since I was already in the Yokohama area, it made perfect sense to stop by non other than the ASM Autobacs Yokohama HQ for some Honda goodness. This location was very easy to find and easily accessible by rail and a short walk. The first part of a two... Continue Reading →
Hey guys, thanks for stopping by to check out my Tsukuba Attack coverage! Much appreciated! But I do have to start off this post with a little unfortunate matter and that is my memory card took a fat shit the day of the event and I lost a few hundred images. These were photos from...

With the recent influx of super low offsets and extra flashy wide bodies, it's kinda refreshing to see that some people still stick to what I like to call, the benchmark of Japanese tuning. What I mean by this term is the notion of going a more functioning route as far as modifying a car... Continue Reading →
With how popular the S2000 is among car enthusiasts these days and how abundant aftermarket parts are for this platform, it's pretty hard to stand out from the crowd. That is, unless you choose your parts wisely and go routes that are less traveled. Photos via MINKARA My favorite aftermarket front bumper for the S2K... Continue Reading →
This S2000 from Global Auto might seem like a typical modified S2k but upon closer inspection, you'd realize why the title of this post is so fitting. Photos via Global Auto Front end of this S is kept relatively simple with a genuine Mugen front lip and Chargespeed carbon canards paint-matched to Imola Orange. Moving... Continue Reading →
The J's Racing Type S kit is definitely one of the most classic, best looking body kit out there for the S2000. Before all these new kits that came out, i.e. Voltex, Tamon, even ASM, the J's Type S was the pinnacle of S2000 exterior and it still is today. This JDM Rio Yellow S... Continue Reading →
Another weekend, another meeting. This is the way of life for car guys in Japan, and needless to say, I'm a bit jealous. I honestly think one of these days I'm just gonna pack my bags and head to Japan for a year or two and just really indulge myself in their automotive culture. Cause... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 →
