“Clean Like Snow” // SEIKETSU – Roger Arias’ Scion tC

Building cars can be very tricky. However, pick a popular platform, lets say, the S13, and with a quick Google search, you can pick from a myriad of build threads and guides that will explain how to do what you need to your car in terms of modification or maintenance. On the other hand, when you run with a platform that isn’t part of the usual repertoire, like this Scion tC we see below, much of…

The Italian Dream

Hypercar Dreams This isn’t the first time I’ve driven a Huayra. A few years ago the guys from Pagani entrusted me with one of their development cars on the Autodromo di Modena, and told me to not come back until I was tired. The chance to get behind the wheel of one of the most acclaimed hypercars ever created, and to do what most dream about by driving it on a track, was surreal. But that aside,…

What Is A Dream Car? The Joy Of Corolla

From Manila To California Can the Toyota Corolla be considered a dream car? Most people would probably say no; after all, Toyota’s people mover is cheap, it’s usually pretty boring and is bought primarily as basic transportation – nothing more. It’s also one of the most common vehicles on the road anywhere in the world. But maybe that actually does makes the Corolla a dream car… Not one that you…

Tokyo Auto Salon: The Big Round-Up

A Final Look It’s been a little over a week, but I’m still mentally frazzled from what was the biggest Tokyo Auto Salon ever. TAS is an event that does so much to you; it hits you from every angle; you’re subjected to so much at the same time that it sends you into a car culture-fuelled frenzy. But slow your pace, take a step back and take it all in, and you realise that behind that chaotic…

Made In Britain: A Look Inside Retro Ford

Some Call It Fate Have you ever thought about the direction that life takes you in, and how it came to be? Some have a very clear vision of what they want to do, how they want their life to unfold, and where they want to be in ‘X’ years time. For others, all it takes is a spur of the moment event or decision to send them down a path they never intended. If you’re able to trace it back, a choice…

Tokyo Auto Salon 2016 Photo Coverage // Part 1.

Even though we’ve been covering Tokyo Auto Salon for many years now, we will still continue saying that no amount of photos or videos ever do this event justice. The only other show we can compare it to is SEMA. But, what in our opinion makes TAS even more awesome is that there is less lifted trucks, less regular display cars from car manufacturers, and way more of the stuff we like. You know,…

A Lime Flavoured Bunny

My final 2016 Tokyo Auto Salon spotlight had to be based on a rotary-powered machine. The unique engine is synonymous with Japanese tuning culture, and Mazda is trying its hardest to bring it back for enthusiasts. But in the meantime, we still have wonderful creations from the past that keep fuelling that rotary passion. As always at TAS, the Option magazine display area was where the highest…

A Rolls-Royce Drift Car

The most interesting aspect of drifting is probably the sheer variety of cars that participate. At this point in time, I really thought I had seen it all, but last year’s Japfest at Mondello Park did throw up a surprise. Hang on, wasn’t Japfest an eternity ago? Well, yes, it was. This car may have leaked online previously – it’s what happens when you unveil a car in front of 13,000-odd people –…

Sin City’s Devil Z // Shiro’s Wide Z.

The way I see modified cars, there is a thin line among us owners and enthusiasts. This line separates those of us who just purchase parts and mount them on and those that take the time to personalize and modify the car and parts a step further. Please understand that I am not talking down to the side who chooses to simply purchase the “plug n play” side of modifications because there can be a…

It Was Going To Happen Sooner Or Later…

The title says it all really… While overfender-mania has touched numerous makes and models as it’s spread across the planet like wildfire, the second generation GT-Rs have been somewhat forgotten. Sure, a few examples have been done over the years, but generally speaking, the whole Rocket Bunny and Liberty Walk movement has spared the legendary R32, the chunkier R33 and the later R34. Until now,…

Ford Builds Cool Cars. Be Like Ford.

The Enthusiast’s Brand? As you might remember, last month I posted an editorial story about the current state of Nissan; a brand which was one of the greatest enthusiast marques, but is now a shell of its former self – at least in the eyes of many who love cars. But it’s not all doom and gloom out there, and I wanted to follow that story up with one about a car company I think is doing it right –…

Improving The Trailhunter FJ60: Part 2

Sweet Shifter In the last installment of my Project Trailhunter FJ60 build I addressed removal of the body-lift and installed a set of Flowtech headers to make everything play nice. Since then I’ve been focused on dealing with all the little broken and worn out parts on the truck in an effort to bring it back to 100 per cent, or at least as close as I can get… The FJ has a 1-ton Chevy drivetrain…

The FJ40 Smoke Machine

Where There’s Smoke There’s Firepower Carrying on with my coverage of Summernats 29, held in Canberra, Australia, earlier this month, I’d like to shine the Speedhunters spotlight on some standout attendees, the first of which being a contender for the unofficial title of ‘least obvious base for a burnout machine’. Once upon a time this humble Toyota Land Cruiser was mastering the Australian…
