Guest Coverage: CSCS Round 2012 Round 4

Sunday was one hell of a busy day here in Ontario with four events occurring simultaneously, which is actually something that has been occurring more often than not this year. The first of event getting coverage this week is round fourth round of the 2012 Canadian Sport Compact Series which was back at Toronto Motorsports Park Cayuga.

WTF Friday: Ertefak happened?

On Wednesday it was announced that local car meet Ertefa was -at least temporarily- no longer welcome at the venue it had been occupying. If I am not mistaken this is the second time they have had to leave a location but unlike the first time size wasn't the issue.

Guest Coverage: Cruise To The Quarry 2012

Last Saturday some of the local minitruck community got together for a cruise in at Gulliver's Lake Park hear in Ontario. I wasn't a show but Facebook altered me that there were a bunch of cool handmade awards for things like furthest travelled, lowest roof (limbo), best van, longest daily driver on the road etc.

I love it when a plan comes together

When the second generation Mazda 3s came out I wasn't really the biggest fan of the Cheshire cat grill and bumper combo but when I saw a few modified I warmed up a little bit. Then when Steve -aka 'Aitch'- sent me a Photoshop of what he planned to do with a 2012 SkyActiv Sport my opinion changed almost entirely.

Theme Tuesdays: IS300/Altezzas Part II

The last time I did an IS300 Theme Tuesday was in 2010 so a follow up has been more than overdue. Thinking that these came out originally in 2000 and are now 12 years old makes me feel as though I missed 5 years of my life somehow.

Featured Ride: Дима’s Civic

Coming from a country where parts are not easy to come by at a reasonable price enthusiasts in Ukraine do a damn good job of working with what is available locally and patiently waiting their time to receive what is not. This Civic happens to be the third Ukrainian car to be featured here on Stance Is Everything and like the ones before it it this car is a head turner without being over the top.

WTF Friday: What are these?

It's been a long, long, time since we've played the WTF Friday guessing game since I have more Importfest tickets to give away now is the perfect time to do one. The first person to correctly identify the make and model of the four cars below will win two tickets to this years Importfest taking place August 25th.

That colour

If you checked out the fanpage today you probably noticed that I spent some of my lunch crusining around local vw forum idub.ca and honeslty I obviously don't do that nearly enough. In addition to some great photos from Wonger I found this awesome MK6 Golf on polished and colour matched LMs.

Theme Tuesdays: Los Boulevardos

Recently I stumbled upon on Stance Works thread that kind of rattled the entire belief system this site is based on, for years I have often considered American cars -ie: Impalas slammed on Supremes with white walls- a different style of lowrider but it turns out that is not the case. According to members of the Los Boulevardos Car Club these cars that are too late to be traditional (in the hot rod sense), and too lowrider to be custom (think sleds), and too custom (think lack of wires) to be lowriders are their own niche entirely.

A bunch of hard working Canadians: Part 1

Springs in the air here in Canada, sort of. Actually the amount of spring in the air actually really depends on your definition of spring, the given day, and your current location. Also yesterday there was a lot of stuff in the air but it wasn't really spring... but for the most part (unless its snowing) its spring that's in the air. With spring comes spinning wrenches, cutting metal, sprayed paint, and stretched rubber. I've been following a bunch of great looking builds based right here in the land of red and white and here are a few of them, all drift builds coincidentally.

Theme Tuesdays: Clean Civic EG Hatches

The concept of theme Tuesdays here on Stance Is Everything is simple, every Tuesday I pick a theme and post a collection of vehicles with that theme that meet the stance criteria (modified suspension that suit the vehicles intent). This weeks theme Tuesday topic is: EG Hatches

Event Coverage: Toronto Subaru Club Hypermeeting 2012

When I heard the 2012 Toronto Subaru Club was hosting their annual HyperMeeting the day after Importfest I wasn't entirely sure I would end up to attending because historically in addition to not having much of a voice, and full capture cards I've generally been exhausted the day after IF. However the last Hypermeeting I had been to was in 2009 and this year my friend and previous featured ride owner Tim Neil let me know he was bringing out his Bat-Berry project so I sucked it up and headed down to Subaru Canada Headquarters.

WTF Friday: Vo Lo Vo

I like Volvos and I love low riders, but together I'm not 100% convinced it's a good idea. What 90% of the population thinks be-damned though since this cardomain member decided to throw caution to the wind and build the low rider he always wanted out of his 760 Turbo estate.

Theme Tuesdays: Rare Wheels

Reader Matt suggested last week that I do a Theme Tuesday on rare wheels, and I admit it's a pretty theme idea that I have...
