Fitment Test 1, 2, 3...

2 comments
Stopped by speedtech today to test fit some wheels to help me decide on my wheel sizes for next year. It's a good thing too cause we were able to figure out suspension, tire and rolling options.
Here's a little snap of the fitment on the rear.
Next up, coilovers!
There are only two bad things that will come from this:
1) An empty wallet all winter long
2) Having all the parts sit in my room all through winter begging me to put them on. =(

Ryan's Ep3 Pt. Deuce

0 comments
Ryan got rid of his CE28's Limited Edition and picked up some new RE30's and wanted to do a shoot before the season ended.


Perfect timing too. Just 20 minutes after we were done the shoot, it looked like we were gonna have a tornado. Hella windy the whole time too, but we got a bunch of guys out and had a good time. Especially using Prashant's 70-200 f2.8. It's my new love affair. On to the pics! BTW, click the link to see the rest of the shoot as well as shots from the last shoot we had!

HellaFlush Featured!

3 comments
Yes!!!!
One of my dreams was to actually have one of my photos featured on a site as popular as Fatlace/HellaFlush and it happened just minutes ago.
It's great cause not only did I get featured, but I got featured with Jackie's crazy S2k shoot I did yesterday as you can see in the entry below. So now both Jackie and I have bragging rights :D
Go ahead and click the link and vote 5 stars for flushness! Remember where you saw it first!

The Law Photoshoot

4 comments
So, before Jackie brings his S2000 back to Victoria, Arif and I went out for a photoshoot that we've been wanting to do for a while and since we were kind of tight on time and Arif had to leave early, we couldn't go to too many places and get as many shots.
After a while, Dal showed up and we were able to get some shots of his car too. Two of the sickest cars in Calgary..


At the end of the shoot, we all decided to swap wheels. Jackie wanted to swap to see if white TE's would look good on his silver and I wanted to see if 17x9.5 +35 would fit on my car. Dal also wanted to see if the white TE's would look good on his car.
Turns out, white TE's (inevitably) look sick on both Jackie's and Dal's car and 17x9.5 +35 fits with lots of room to spare.


What do we all get from this? I will be letting go of the TE's to Dal in return for his J's wing. Jackie will be getting something white ;) and I will be fitting 18x9.5 +20's. I declare tonight the sickest wheel swap ever.

And the award goes to...

0 comments
... My good friend, Van!
Just wanted to thank him for helping me work on my blog and design it to make it look a little more spiffy. Being the busy guy he is, he always seems to be able to put time aside for me whenever I need a hand, whether it be some custom vinyl or designing this blog. I believe in karma - you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours!

If you guys are interested, go check out his website and work, you'll never see attention to detail and skill like his!

Another Perspective

0 comments
This afternoon we had a little 8thcivic meet with some of the OG's and a few of the newer people and we had a pretty decent turnout considering we are such a little group on the forum. Most of us were able to make it out.

Usually I was the one lugging my camera around and taking pictures of everyones cares but since then, others have picked up photography as a hobby and now I can leave my gear at home! haha
I was super stoked about getting some pics from Adnan and Barry.

I'll post more pics of the rest of the cars as they get processed by Adnan and Barry.. for now..

Here are some shots Adnan took of my car.. It's so nice to have a different look to the pictures other than mine. Woooot
Thanks to Adnan!

Me and mah car









Last Track Day of the Season

0 comments
The end of Race City is nearing its end and we got our last run in today with Speedtech.
I was able to get some shots while I was waiting for my car to cool down, good runs tonight!

Running the car hard means running high risks.. Now my exhaust is all messed up and I might need to get it welded together again.. Hopefully I find a solution sometime this week cause it sounds like ass hahaha


Until then.. Here are a few pics that were my favourite from today.

Minty Clean Turbocharged AE86

0 comments
After a few weeks of trying to sort out a time to meet, we finally got a chance to shoot JC's Dad's Turbo AE86. Unbelievable the amount of work and money gone into this beast. Everything is just done right down to the metal. It's too bad you don't see this more often. Too many corners are being cut, or ignored and that's what takes away from this scene.
It's nice to be shooting cars that have been done right from the ground up. Anyways, I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

Thanks again to Tito Romel, JC and Arif for coming out for the shoot.



Look at that minty interior!!! jeeez




Boost wat?




My partner in crime and I...


And a group shot!

Hawk HPS + Motul DOT 4 = Win

Getting track ready!
Yesterday afternoon I went over to Arif's to change my brake pads and brake fluid since they haven't been changed for like 86,000km's hahaha
After taking off the stock pads, they were pretty much done and almost down to the brackets and my fluid was hella black. Not cool.
The brake fluid change was thanks to Jackie.. and Punit topping the fluid as we bled them bahahaha
Here's a nice pic for you guys.

As you can see, this is a filler blog. Been hella busy with work lately and school starts Thursday. FML.

Fresh Interior

0 comments
After adding my last addition to the car - an NRG long quick release, I think I'm pretty happy with how it's turned out. Before, I felt that the seats were enough, but after a while it felt too stock. Now it's looking a lot nicer... now all I need is a red cage.... HMMMM

Diana's Fit Pt. Deuce

0 comments
Today was a chill day for Diana and I.. finally found some time outside of work or scrambling around getting stuff for school so we Diana wanted to get a squash air freshener for her car and I wanted to do another quick shoot - one that isn't at night haha.

So we stopped by some loading docks (I know, no to loading docks) and did some quick rolling shots down 16th and 32nd.
I thought they turned out alright despite the fact that Diana was feeling sketchy about doing a photoshoot in a business area during work times and rushing me haha

Enjoyzzzzzz
