Just because it's funny

Must have been a real brown trousers moment followed by one hell of a "Phew!" Ha ha!

Another way

Prompted by this beast, that popped up on HellaFlush, and my friend Sid talking about taking his new S13 in a "Boso" direction. I got thinking about another end of the Silvia styling spectrum.

Don't get me wrong, I'm very much a fan of cars scraping the floor, super clean paint, chasing perfect fitment, all in the pursuit of the elusive and almost undefinable.. "stance". 11.5 -37 on the rear of the car above is insane, and hats off to the guy for pulling it off. But, it strikes me, that car really is at the extreme, and perhaps we have reached the edge of how far you can take that look.

I can't help thinking of another way. One that I love perhaps even more, and is just as hard to get right. With a less transformer spec kit, small old school wheels and more than a hint of retro racing..

A little world of awesome

How much fun does this little track look!? Perfect for fun times in an 86 me thinks.

86 Flavours

There must be more than 86 ways to flavour and AE86. Until recent chats with friend Daniel, I didn't realise just how fussy I was with my taste. A 2-door Levin, low, with proper wheels, clean paint, a front lip and the grill in the bin, is definitely my favourite flavour.


There's no doubt Paz has built some of the sexiest 86s in the UK. Two of them were 2-doors, and exactly how I like them..

The red one had a little F20C shaped treat under the bonnet..


What's your favourite flavour?

Hey Man!

Sticking with the kick-ass AE86 team thang..



Hey Man! have a real cult status amongst 86 fans and this is a cool little video. It's simply fun times, dicking about with friends, wringing the neck out of a 4AGE! Love it.

Mouse!

The boy done good!

Gone but not forgotten

We've just heard here in the UK of the sad news that Atsushi Kuroi was killed last night in a motorcycle accident in Japan.

Kuroi, who owned River Side tuning garage in Osaka, was an amazing influence on drifters all around the world because of his maximum attack driving style and crazy 650bhp+ S13, powered by an RB26 and more recently a 2JZ.

With good results and a win at Fuji raceway last season in D1GP, more wins and a championship were always going to follow. His balls out driving style has pushed drifting to whole new levels and since being in D1GP, everyone has had to up their game to match his awesome angles and entry speeds.

Here's why he was a crowd favourite, massive angle, massive speed and massive smoke!





RIP man. You've left your mark on drifting and won't be forgotten.
