It has been a long while since I have actually did video, and doing this video was like learning it again. Here we have Jimmy’s Honda Civic and Erik’s Honda EP3, which have nearly identical visual appearances and performance modifications. Both these cars are static (on coilovers), boosted, and on Volk Racing TE37s.
Take a look at this highlight of both fine tuned cars:
Thanks.

It was finally here, the weekend of the Enjoy Sin car meet with HNRS. We’ve been counting the days, minutes and seconds to finally spend some good quality time with friends and family. One of my favorite things to take photos of during this event is the caravan to Vegas, it’s just such a thrill to see a bunch of modified cars cruising together on the freeway. This post will be mostly rolling shots of the caravan.
Jeff looking mighty dapper this early.
Erik and Nimo trying to get dabber themselves.
UNDERWATER SQUAD.
Ryo’s Q45 rolling static on Koenig Monsters.
New member Aron’s M35 on Weds Bazerias.
Jaycray’s brand spanking new RC350 with it’s first road trip. Glad that we were apart of it.
The biggest surprise on the trip was Adam taking his S13. Glad to see it made the trip without any problems.
Kentaro rolling through with the most reliable car here.
Marq was hesitant about taking his 7 series to Vegas because of some transmission problems, but he ended up making it there with no problems and he only used half a tank to get from Cali to Vegas. Quite impressive for a big body BMW.
Ryan Gold’s bright ass EVO was fun to shoot for rolling shots. Ryan made the trek with us all the way from Santa Barbara.
This year we had faster cars in this caravan, but we paced it pretty well so Vu and I could get some good rolling shots of the caravan. Thanks Ashton for not going 0 to 130 real quick.
Another speed demon, Phat and his Cayman S.
Jeff’s WRX was my camera car and he did a great job catching up to everyone and pacing the car so I could get the best shots.
Robros Customs let Vinh drive the STI to the meet. The wrap looked great in the sun.
Derek pulled an all nighter to get his car ready for this trip. He spent the whole night wrapping his front end just to look decent for the meet.
Kevin’s S2000 was looking great now that it looks pretty much complete with his hardtop.
One of the lowest cars in the caravan was boss man, Jimmy’s Civic. He was literally scraping his diffuser all the way to Vegas.
Jimmy did a public service and picked up all the trash on the freeway.
The second camera car with Vu in the passenger seat.
This year Erik and his EP3 joined us in the caravan to Vegas. His car looks freaking ridiculous when it’s rolling
Gas station stop.
Jimmy couldn’t make it up the drive way, so he parked in the streets.
We finally made it to our first destination, the M Resort where they have a good deal for lunch at the Studio B buffet. It’s been a tradition that we hit this buffet first before doing anything else in Vegas.
Sparkle’s M3 our Taiwan dealer of Royal Origin and HOODRATstuff also joined us in the caravan. Sucks, we missed his car for a rolling shot.
EVO booty.
Jesus, we made it.
Shavi leading the squad.
For the first time, we beat the rush for the buffet. Vinh and John excited to stuff their faces.
Looks like heaven.
Japan x Taiwan x Vietnam.
After the buffet, we went to check in at the house we rented. The driveway was so large that it could have fit all of our cars, too bad some of us couldn’t make it up the driveway.
Neel is now a Vegas local and met up with us as soon as we arrived.
Safe and sound.
The house was pretty awesome, large enough for all of us and it had so many activities like this gaming room.
Tina excited for some pool.
Ryan sucks at shuffle board.
This will be empty by tomorrow.
Current events meeting aka deciding where we’re going to go eat.
Angelo, the leader of the RO offroad edition.
That’s it for today, the next post will be coverage of the meet!
