One of the things I love most about the Japanese car culture is their dedication and effort in their craft. I mean every weekend there seems to be several car meets going on, and these meets are always filled with top notch vehicles and at most times even shop cars makes appearances. One of the...

Going For Classic: Nismo R34 GTR
Now THIS is a classic looking GTR. Nismo V-Spec II dropped on Tein CS dampers is all you need to make a R34 look more stunning than it already is from the factory. Photos via Yahoo Auctions Nismo exterior sets any GTR off just right. Classic LMGT4s sized in 18x10.5 +15 gives this GTR a... Continue Reading →
Less is More: JDM Silvia Spec-R
I've always been a big fan of a simpler approach to modifying cars, especially for street use. This "less is more" approach is very similar if not the same concept as "quality over quantity," and that's exactly what we get with this S15 Spec-R. Photos via Yahoo Auctions The Vertex Lang kit is definitely one... Continue Reading →
[Event Coverage] Bay Area S2ki Showoff 2015
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 →
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
