Cheap Fun

Cruising to a Halloween party on Friday night out of the corner of my eye I noticed a familiar looking Civic coming up in my side mirror, as he got closer I realized the car belonged to Erik Morrison of Nine-O-Five Rides. After trying, in vain, to communicate on the highway with the windows down we cruised together for a bit before I exited and he continued on. As he vanished into the night I remembered that he had some pictures and info on this Civic I had yet to post.

WTF Friday: The Engine, it fell out

Have you ever had a conversation with someone who doesn't know a lot about cars and they might say something like "If I don't take my car to the dealer the motor may fall out" or "the mechanic said my motor was dropping out". I'm paraphrasing of course but I have had some really weird conversations with people who treat cars like appliances, anyway, it never really occurred to me that if you hit something hard enough your motor may just indeed fall out.

Spy Vs Spy

We had some crazy weather here in the GTA last weekend and previous featured photographer Edwin Tan aka Dougboy took it upon himself to go out and snap some pictures of his ride out in the fog. Call me slow but before these shots I had no idea Edwin was actually rocking two different color sets of wheels. This touch helps put his already unique TL further into the original category.

Nashville

When I saw pictures of this truck on Low Tech (via Phils Car Blog's blogroll) I was floored. This is one beautiful vehicle and the photographs that capture it are equally beautiful. Some may argue that a vehicle with narrow wheels, lots of sidewall, high ground clearance, and no fenders to speak of doesn't have stance. I beg to differ, this car has stance, class, and attitude all rolled into one clean classic package.

Hottawa

Emilio, is one of those photographers who's threads I am always sure to check out on jdmrides. Whenever 'b20bomber' appears below a thread title in the Photo and Video Gallery section I can always be certain that inside are a number of great photos of clean cars. Recently Emilio went out to Ottawa to meet up with some of his fellow Honda owning friends and produced the work you see here today, this full set along with a whole lot more can be found on his TWOLITREmedia flckr account.

Theme Tuesdays: Pictures With Attitude: 4

I love doing these 'Pictures with attitude' aka rad picture Theme Tuesdays because it gives me a chance to let my automotive A.D.D. run wild. The car hobby is a big one and there is no fun in only enjoying select parts of it all the time.

Immaculate

I'm not even sure what I need to say about this R32. After taking a look at the entire flickr album @Mike_Shake sent me on twitter I knew that I absolutely had to post this car. This car is the definition of clean. Perfect fitment, perfect camber, the perfect amount of stretch and poke, minimal stickers, and perfect bodywork.

WTF Friday: The Transporter

The Pontiac Transport has to be one of the few vehicles that is damn near 'unstanceable' it looks like a giant cheese wedge covered with gaudy plastic body cladding. However as we know that will never stop a few people from trying to come up with something, as seen inside. The winners of the S.I.E/Shell V Power 'You've got gas' contest will be revealed in the site updates section of today's WTF Friday so if that's why you are here then click through and scroll down.

Sam got a Miata

My friend Sam recently sold his m50 swapped e30 and picked up a Mazda Miata. What does this have to do with today's photo? Nothing. However, I am pretty busy today and figured you guys wouldn't mind if I just said very little and instead just posted up a picture of a girl next to, what I assume to be, her slammed Miata.

Theme Tuesdays: Air cooled Beetles

The 'blame' for this weeks Theme Tuesday can squarely be placed on the shoulders of previously featured photographer and current BC(?) resident Mike McConnell. After spotting the Beetle that used to be his at Oktoberfest I read through the entire build thread which left me wanting more. Since it's been a long time since I have dedicated a Theme Tuesday to this iconic car I spent some time last night pulling a quick list together.

Fat and Flush: Silver Sleigh

Enkei should just sponsor the Fat And Flush section of this blog because their RPF-1 wheel is now making it's fourth appearance in this now nine post category. Yes nearly 50% of this entire category is made up of cars on RPF-1 wheels, crazy.

Honda B Series Swapped Honda CM7 Accord

There might not be much "Accord" left in this car, but it's still very much a Honda. A longitudinally mounted B series, with a large Precision Turbo, sends this car down the strip in 8 seconds.

Readers Rides: 09/17/2009

I love getting email to the [email protected] account with pictures of readers cars that they would like to see on the site. It's a cool feeling to run something you guys and girls want to be a part of and help gain more exposure. If these two cars are any indication of the caliber of rides my readers drive than I look forward to seeing a lot more.

While rummaging through the Stance|Works forums the other day I came across a great photo shoot by AJ Gillett that was originally slated for the now...
