I'm pretty sure most of you are familiar with the top-of-line Subaru Impreza WRX STi. But I'm also sure that most of you have no idea just how many variations and limited editions of said STis there are.

The Greatest Station Wagon of All Time?
I know I always say certain cars are the greatest of all time and what not, but damn, I seriously think this Legacy from Japan is one of the greatest wagons I've ever seen. I mean, modding a station wagon is one thing, but putting things like Alcon BBKs and Advan GTs on it is... Continue Reading →

Getting straight to the point with this gorgeous MKIV. Arguably one of the best kits for the Supra, the Varis Ridox kit sets the car off just right along with those aggressive Gram Lights 57Ds. And under the hood, as you can tell from the title, a 700HP, 3.1L 2JZ powered by a massive Trust... Continue Reading →
Special GTR: Omori Tuned Nismo R1 BNR34
I think a lot of us can agree that the R34 GTR is probably the best, if not, top 3 Japanese sports car that was ever created. The R34 is one of those cars that need little to no work done from the factory. But of course, a little tweaking and modification upgrades never hurts.....such... Continue Reading →

Lexus RC350: JDM x Stance
Being in its first year of production, it's safe to say that there aren't many modified RCs roaming the streets just yet. But from the few that I've seen, this one from Japan ranks at the top of the list for me (Maybe behind the Rocket Bunny). Some might say it's too much, but I'm... Continue Reading →

I've seen some great looking DC5s in my days, but this bloody Type R is definitely up there on my top ten list!

All-JDM S2000
The Evasive Motorsports' customer car is definitely one of the best I've seen. This car is where aggressive meets quality, and when I say quality, I mean JDM parts galore!

2JZ-Z: A 77′ Fairlady
Nissan's old school Z cars have always been one of my favorites as far as Japanese classics are concerned.

Take this 77' Fairlady for example, its got the whole package; a beautiful and clean exterior with a special power plant in... Continue Reading →
From Track to Street: A Multi-functional R34 GTR
I gotta say, the GTR is probably one of the best multi-functional car there ever was. With simple bolt-ons, a few aero bits, and some nice shoes, an R34 can pretty much out pace anyone in the street classes. Take this simple R34 for example, its got some very mild modifications done, with full interior,... Continue Reading →
