Sooo I haven't used this thing in awhile and actually wrote a long post with 100+ photos, but the damn thing didn't save... fuck me right? So here I am, rewriting about the first Texas AE86 Matsuri event in Houston, TX. I'm assuming anyone and everyone who's reading this post knows what an AE86 is... so I won't go into much detail on what they are... just know its t[...]
I think the DC5 is one of the most underrated chassis... you don't see many being tracked or driven much anymore.. one reason is because they are sought after for their engine and transmissions... also, they still retain some value. When tuned correctly, they look and handle amazing.. or so I've heard. I guess that's what all these guys are meeting up for in Austin.[...]
A Honda motor in a AE86 chassis? Some might say it will lose the soul or feel of the car... but a high HP revving motor in a AE86? Sign me up for a soul swap anytime. In Juan's scenario, he started off with a F20C swapped AE86... The Ricer Series - Juan's @86Jovi K24 Swapped AE86 Hatch I usually keep my shoots simple and keep it convenient so the owne[...]
Is it possible to over build or engineer a Honda to a point where it's almost perfect? Ok, I wouldn't say "perfect" but it's engineered to function, for sure. If you asked Lance what he thought of Danny's Honda K-Swapped EK Honda Civic, he'd probably say, "It's an amazing machine..." And... I would have to agree. You'll see why as you scroll down the post..[...]
Hey, how's everyone doing with this Coronavirus fiasco? Hope everyone is safe and staying isolated for the time being... unlike me who flew to LAX for Final Bout SS West... haha. Probably gonna have to quarantine myself for a week or two when I get back. While at Final Bout SS West, everyone keeps asking me what I thought of Final Bout Special Stage South (S[...]
It looks like I've been MIA from the blog for awhile and that's kind of a good thing since I have so many projects or things going... maybe I should start posting about what I've been up to, but we'll focus on The Ricer Series - Joseph's NA1 Acura NSX in Downtown Houston Texas... If you missed the first post of 'The Ricer Series', you can just click here to read ab[...]
The Japanese Nostalgic Car Meet - free to attend, bad ass classic Japanese cars, good local craft beer, cool/cold weather, and lots of car people. I'd say this year's turnout for JNCM was pretty good.... not too crazy or out of hand like the Wekfest Pre Meet, but enjoyable without too much concern lol. With that being said, we really appreciate those who attended, [...]
Hi Stranger... It's been a while since my last post, but I promise I'll catch up on what I've been doing in the next month... maybe. Until then, I'm going to start up a new photo series called "The Ricer Series". This will be more of a personal project featuring friends, cars, places, or things to be considered 'rice'. Why 'rice'? Because it's either fuck[...]
What happens when one of the craziest tropical cyclone hits your hometown and you're away on vacation? You get delayed, stuck, and not really knowing when you'll be able to get back. Read more of our 'stuck overseas' experiences when traveling during hurricane season after our Thailand Budget Travel Trip in 2017... Ok... while we were traveling, we watched the news[...]
Law and I continue our SE Asia trip to Thailand and that's where things get a bit sketchy. I should've known better since we weren't locals and every introduction started with "Hey, Tuk tuk?!" or "Where are you from my friend?!" Read on to see my thoughts of 'Thailand Budget Travel.' Before getting to the part of where we got scammed, Law and I finish up our trip [...]
