    Night Meet Ups | Event Coverage

    Met up with some friends for a little car meet for an out of country visitor. I didn’t meet the guy, but the cars that came out were pretty cool.

    I got to meet some friends that I have been playing PUBG with in person. Glad to have put a face to a name. This is Dezz’s  sweet S13.

    Super slammed S13 on Weds Cerebus.

    Sick AE86 on the classic Watanabe wheels.

    Nice and clean R32 on Volk TE-37s.

    I still love Vertex IS300s especially with the S-Endurance bumper.

    Enjoy life, drive your car.

    The Big Day | Enjoy Sin

    The big day was here, all the planning we’ve been doing for the past three months has led to this day. Even if the event wasn’t going to be successful, we were just happy to reunite with our friends in Vegas. It’s been a long time since those days we use to take turns on who visited who each weekend and that was the honeymoon stage of our friendship. Even though the honeymoon phase is over, we still have mad love for each other.

    We spent most of the morning getting over our hangovers and trying to get a quick power nap before the meet. That is why we like our car meets late in the afternoon. Check out the crew in all black everything, Jeff didn’t get the memo.

     This time of the year is always the time where I stress the most and have the craziest anxiety attacks.

    Vegas Prep | Enjoy Sin

    It’s insane how much sleep you lose when preparing your car for an event, whether it’s a track day or just a car meet. Making your car up to your expectations takes quite a bit of time and effort. Most of the crew had to get their car ready for our annual Royal Origin meet in Las Vegas. Not only did they have to get the car ready to floss, but they had to get it ready for a four hour trek into the desert.

    fun 004

    Ryo, one of the crazier guys in our group had to get his fenders pulled and space our his rear wheels, so it doesn’t rub against the frame anymore.

    fun 006

    Crazy, how he’s planning to drive this car to Vegas.

    fun 008

    Meanwhile, I was just playing around putting my Work CR-Kai’s on my SC. Doesn’t look that bad in my opinion.

    fun 009

    fun 020

    Air master Vinh was trying to put together his air suspension for his STI.

    fun 021
    The pieces to a very complicated puzzle.

    fun 022

    fun 023

    Vinh’s garage buddy, Bryan’s M5 on DPE wheels.

    fun 028

    Since the SC got some wheels now, I decided to put the Meisters back on my IS for the meet.

    fun 032

    Damn, I miss driving around like a boss.

    fun 036

    Speaking of bosses, Kevin from Boss Company came by to hang out with his LS400.

    fun 039

    Sadly, this car will be sold soon..

    fun 040

    fun 043More of Ryo’s Q45.

    fun 047

    Dem camber specs tho..

    fun 048

    fun 057

    The master teaching the student.

    fun 058

    Decided to practice light painting again and well it didn’t come out that great. It was most likely because it wasn’t dark enough and the amber lights didn’t help either.

    fun 069

    fun 061

    I wasn’t trying to be artistic and deep with the black and white. The only way this photos would come out decent if it were in black and white…

  • 88 Rotors Anniversary Meet

    88 Rotors Anniversary Meet

     Last Sunday, we ventured out to City of Industry to celebrate the 88 Rotors 10 Year Anniversary Meet at MRR Wheels. That’s a pretty impressive feat to be in the industry for 10 years and still doing well. 88 Rotors pulled out all the stops for this meet, they had free tacos, bacon wrapped hot dogs served for free, giveaways including an IPhone 6 and a Go Pro Hero 4 and awards for a free car meet. The turnout for this meet was crazy and was already filled up before we even arrived.

    001

    004

    Phat, Jay and I were able to get a spot before the gates closed.

    Free tacos? I’m there.

    Favorite car at the meet, hands down. I usually just walk by cars, but for this S2000 I actually took the time to look all the details.

    032

    034

    035

    They ran out of parking inside the lot, so people made the effort to park like show cars in the fire lane.

    036

    We were still hungry and decided to kill some time in DTLA and get some brunch at Egg Slut.

    037

    The long ass line for Egg Slut.

    038

    Phat went to get a weird baguette hot dog to eat while we wait in line.

    They yolk each other off all the time.

    I got the Guacho which is a tri tip steak burger.

    051

    Yolk porn.

    053

    We walk around the market area for a bit for some ice cream, spotted this pile of pork that I wanted to dip my face in. Acne for days..

    055

    Insert some quote about light and dark and how being lost is cool.

    056

    058

    McConnel’s minht chip hit the spot.

    062

    This market is pretty cool.

    066

    Jay just wants to go back to the show to see if he won Best of Show.

    070

    On the way down an old lady asked us for help, her car died and needed a jump start. LA people are assholes. They were getting mad that we were helping this old lady because we caused slight traffic. I hope you fuckers never get help when your car dies.

    071

    “I want to clamp this to your nipples”

    075

    On the way back we spotted a Supra and tried to race it in the X5.

  • Japanese Anal Beads

    Japanese Anal Beads

    Lowballers Japan and peeps from Fatlace came to visit so we wanted to show them a good time and throw a little meet for them. This meet was only promoted on the morning of and we didn’t even say it was a car meet. We only posted a photo of Yoshi and some anal beads for the event. Surprisingly, there were quite a few cars that came out.

    lbjp 121

     R’s Tuning widebody M3 looks so sick.

    lbjp 158

     Kentaro translating and being useful for once…just kidding! They were telling Kentaro that they welded the suspension together to one of their cars, so there isn’t a shock or a coil over in the suspension. The control arm is just sitting on the frame. Intense!

    lbjp 139

     More Boss Companyness.

     The other Kevin from Boss Company/Sequence.

    This green paint was doing it for me. I don’t know why…

    lbjp 226

    Been seeing this FRS everywhere I go.

    lbjp 224

    I don’t mind though, I still always check it out as if it was my first time seeing it.

    Another car that only comes out to special events is the LRG SOUP.

    lbjp 182

     and the crowd swarms in.

     Adam’s dark side.

    lbjp 263

     Rolling hard, too bad this shit was blurry.

    lbjp 236

     LP JP X RO. It was fun meeting the guys from Japan and hanging with the Fatlace crew. We learned a lot about Japanese culture and their godly ways to get the max camber and max low. Too bad roads here are not as developed compared to Japan’s roads. Good times with like minded people, hope they have a safe trip home and hope to see them soon in their homeland!
