As if the R35 GT-R couldn’t get any more insane, Nissan decides to go on and develop a V-Spec version. And that’s a good thing because as we all know, you can never, and I mean never, have too much power.
They’re currently testing the car at the infamous Nürburgring in Germany, where Nissan have set [...]

The other day I noticed a couple of the new Nissan GT-Rs being sold on Motortrader, which is Malaysia’s biggest car sales website. One thing that grabbed my attention was how much more expensive the car is when compared to prices I’d heard them going for in other parts of the world - especially Japan.
I [...]

I just received this video through the freshly-launched JDM Asia Myspace page (add friend now!) showing HKS’s latest demo cars, the new Nissan R35 GT-R and Subaru Impreza WRX Sti.
As the video is in Japanese I can’t understand what they’re talking about in terms of the specifications of these machines, but from the video footage [...]

Those crafty little technical wonderboys over at Tomei’s engineering division have been hard at work since they first got hands on Mitsubishi’s new 4B11 powerplant that is the beating heart of the brand-spanking Evo X. In order to gain as much information about the engine as they possible could in order to make manufacturing their [...]

I was going through a DVD last night that is literally filled with nothing but photos from when I was back home in Australia. I didn’t think I actually had any photos of any of my old cars when I found a couple of pics of my RPS13 I took a few days after buying [...]

Okay, for those of you not in Malaysia, today was opening day for this country’s very own high-octane drift film that goes by the name of Evolusi: Tokyo Drift. I’ve just come out of seeing the movie and I thought I’d voice my opinion on what I thought of the flick.
To start, the movie is [...]

I can’t get away from the art today can I? Anyway, I found this wicked rendering of Calsonic’s latest GT500 car and I have to say I like it, I like it a damn lot.

Not really on topic or anything…well, kinda since we’ve been talking about Evos a lot the past few days. I found this photoshopped photo of an Evo X while trawling the ‘net today and though I’d share it with all the punters who view this blog.
I definitely think the car looks a lot better [...]

Hey all, I know this blog is only new, though I feel it needs somewhat of an overhaul in order to make it as cutting-edge as possible and to differentiate it from just every other blog on WordPress, or the Internet for that matter.
I’ve just started talking with a graphic design studio here in Johor [...]
