Direction Ahead

Decisions are essentially made, this is just icing on the [cup]cake.

New Zealand Does It Best

More style than should be had in one country.

Tuning Past Vol 2

When you have reached the point as a tuning house that you are given an award by NISMO for your work on a model, you have truly accomplished an impeccable build. This car was super-legit in the first years of the 00s and eventually claimed such an award in 03, but even today it stands alone [wherever it is] as an almost definitive Japanese build. This car just oozes the simple complexity the country is famous for, never afraid to completely reengineer and never afraid to leave something stock.

Thoughts Of The Past

I came across these pictures of the JUN Hyper Lemon Impreza a few weeks ago, what happens to cars like this? This machine was near perfection incorporating ITBs as well as a trick turbo setup. I believe it lapped in the 59s at Tsukuba. I wish there were more tuning shops that really took on projects like this. Aero to motor the brilliant folks at JUN Auto Mechanic reworked, reimagined, and redefined the GD platform.

The Art Of Flare

Stumbled across the vintage RX7 build the other day, essentially a reconstruction of the old era circuit builds but just look at that body work! Wish I could find real info on the engine and suspension build but the flow of their aero design and their wheel setup is simply top notch.

Boxer Livery

Borrowing the dress from a slightly more attention grabbing boxer-motivated auto, I think the STi pulls of the orange with comfortable flamboyance.

Auto-Reflection-Life

This car would be pointless without the element of servility; tough work to pull off but character is everything.
