Almost reaching a year of being active in the automotive scene, I've encountered builds that were outrageously exceptional to a point where I stood around a car thinking how much money and effort was put into it to its final running state. I'm not talking about cars that were built only for shows, but including the ones that were built to track, drift, rally, etc. and from the many model/brands, I was always impressed with those who owned and built a Nissan Silvia.
There are basically 2 routes you see many Silvia owners go with when it comes to motor work; sticking with the KA motor trying to squeeze out every single bit of its power, or an upgraded SR20DET, a much powerful and reliable piece when it comes to any automotive sport. Let's be honest here, what's been mention is a typical path for many Silvias. Don't get me wrong, I love both; however, there will be someone amongst the Silvia crowd unsatisfied with the power given out by either of the two or just tired of doing the same thing like all the others. That's when Steve Klopman and his 240sx come into the Spotlight. What do I mean? Read and see for yourself...

Random Spotlight: Bagged & Shaved G

I must say..this is probably one of the sickest bagged G's in the U.S..
Maybe I'm over-exaggerating, but seeing the ride in person during the S:N meet @ Placentia was more than just drooling. The owner is a recuitment director for Team Outcast.
Even on bags, the drop between the fenders and rims were on point, nice camber, interior, exterior..almost everything about this car was near to perfect! (or maybe..perfect!)

Random Spotlight: SC Appreciation Day

October 14, 2010

Taki's Lexus SC300

I don't remember how it started when my love for SC's became crazy.
First of all, the overall exterior look of the car, even purely stock, just looks amazing. Now imagine a stanced, hellaflush black SC with white rims rolling through your neighborhood.
Imaginations can come true.

Here's a twin-turboed SC300 owned by T.K. Kapous from St.Pete Florida.
Yes, you read it right. This beauty went through a critical surgery, an engine swap to a 1jzgte twin-turbo motor. Result? A success!
It even got better when I heard the ride was daily driven.

Spotlight: Striking EJ1

I'm really hyped up because our site is getting bigger and bigger.
New photographers came in and looking forward to recruit other people as well.
Usually, most of the staffs/crew for known blogs have sick rides and we, night-import, are pretty much in the same case :)

This sick car belongs to one of our photographers, Jay Peña.
Now this is not an ordinary EJ1 you guys see passing by your street or even on the net.
It's a 1994 Honda Civic EX/S aka SI model in Canada that comes with back disc brakes.
