There are people who adore builds that usually consist of a good drop and a decent set of wheels, then there are some like Franz who take things to a whole different level. Bosozoku style is not accepted by everyone, especially in the Philippines but it didn’t matter to him, he was at his own…
Here is a glimpse into Illest HQ in Costa Mesa, California before it was officially Illest HQ. Days of hard work went into preparing Illest HQ, but after dark we kept doing what we love to do. The highlight of that night was Ashton Carlisle’s 2007 White Lexus IS350 on Work Emotion CR Kiwami. None…

To kick of my Hellaflush Approved posts, I have the pleasure feature Lance Harano’s Toyota AE86 gracing Hawaii’s roads on SSR XR-4s. It epitomizes Hellaflush not only with the SSR XR-4s 175/50/15 wrapped 9″ wide fronts and 195/50/15 wrapped 10″ wide rears, but also with the overall craftsmanship. With attention to detail and accolades to…
2012 SEMA is an important year for the event largely due to the introduction of the FR-S/BR-Z. It’s no secret that this car has made quite a scene since its debute with a winning formula of an accessible and practical packaging combined with a fun to drive spirit rooting from the legendary AE86.
