    Ryo’s GS430 | Royal Origin Member

    Ryo Hara is my favorite Japanese man in this world. He once told me that the only thing he learned from being in the States for two years is that Royal Origin is really gay. Ryo took all of this and brought it to Japan and built this one of a kind GS.

    Ryo got this GS on a good deal, so he didn’t hesitate to throw on a bolt on wide body kit by Lexon Japan.

    The GS looks tough out in the streets of Sagamihara.

    Not only is Ryo rocking the only Lexon kit in the world for the GS, he is also rocking the first set of Vossen x Work Wheels collab wheel.

    Car was looking so hot, it melted all of the snow. So, we had to shoot some more photos back in the underground parking lot.

    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.

    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.

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

    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.

    Sadly, this car will be sold soon..

    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.

    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…

    Vinh’s garage is where most of our cars have been worked on or fixed and usually we come back the next day because we messed up on something. We’re not perfect, maybe Instagram makes it look like we have perfect cars, but we don’t. It actually takes a lot of work to build a car that we would be happy with. A suspension drop, wheels and a lip kit doesn’t really count as a build for us. It’s definitely a start, but what separates the car scene kids to the true enthusiast is the attention to detail and the never ending thirst to build a complete all around car.

    From Lexus to Nissan now Subaru, Vinh is trying to catch them all. He has always been able to build some unique cars with his simplistic style, every car he has built had it’s own way of grabbing your attention without it having something crazy to it.

    Vinh’s room mate, Bryan’s M5. Shit’s packing heat with 500hp.

    Henry’s freshly bagged GS on Loc’s Work CR Kais. They’re for sale for $1,900.

    Today’s project is Abbitt’s Subaru, we were getting it prepped for a tune. Abbitt is not about the details of his car, if it works and looks good, it’s fine for him. He still builds some pretty cool cars though.

    Love/hate relationship for Vinh and building cars. He likes building cars, but he hates being broke from buying the parts.

    Henry was trying to fix his air leaks all day. #airproblems

    John’s been a rut trying to sell his Work VS-TX. Seems like people now a days don’t want to be a gangster.

    Holy camber, Batman!

    Sunsets and slammed cars. Even though cars can be a headache, nothing beats seeing your hard work put into a car with the sun setting in the background. Do it for the love of the build instead of Instagram likes.

    With car shows in full effect, everyone is getting their cars ready with their newest mods. Yogi from Fatlace recently started his Lexus GS430 project and already it has changed quiet a bit.

    The never ending projects stay never ending.
    Thanks
