    Sometimes nostalgia can be a real pain in the ass. Sometimes you miss the smell of something or maybe even the way something made you feel. That’s probably why I still keep my old piece of crap SC around. It just makes me feel like the times when I first got into cars and everything was so exciting. Hanging out with friends, cruising the streets, and just being happy. That feeling of nostalgia can be built again and that’s why Kevin got back into a Honda. He’s been building this EK for quite some time and now his vision is finally complete. Check it out!

    That feeling when you just finished your car and it gets it’s first sunset shoot.

    If you guys didn’t notice, this is the same spot we first shot Kevin’s E36.

    I don’t know much about Hondas, but damn this thing is nice. Built like how a responsible adult would instead of the HOODRATstuff we did when we were younger. No cut springs here baby.

    He plans to build this car for the track and as a nice little daily.

    John came along to help us get some rollers, here we have the chase car for today.

    I hope you enjoyed the photos! It’s never too late to build your dream car.

    Erik’s EP3 | Car Feature

    I don’t think Erik’s EP3 needs an introduction because you’ve probably seen his car in most of our posts and all over the social media sphere for being one of the lowest EP3’s out there. Erik asked me and Shavi to shoot his car and usually when owners ask that it’s because they’re either selling the car or something big is going to happen to it. Which for Erik I think he’s going to raise his car like an inch. Dramatic I know..

    Erik’s EP3 is static sitting on Volk TE-37 SL.

    So much tuck, I think Erik’s plan to raise his car is actually a really good idea.

    Erik’s EP3 has been through it all from being boosted to many many sets of wheels.

    Volks and Brembos go together like spam and rice.

    Erik is still able to turn under those fiber glass J’s Racing fenders, I’m surprised the fenders are the least fucked up part of his car.

    Erik brought out Yung Louie to the photo shoot, so we can see his enormous balls.

    That’s the face of a happy dog rubbing his balls on some Status seats.

    Early Mornings and Night Risers

    I don’t usually wake up at 6:30A.M., but when I do, I like to spend my time at Cars and Coffee in Irvine. I remember when Shavi, Vinh, and I went to Wekfest San Francisco last year and met John from Mayday Garage. He asked us how old we were and we all responded with over 20. He said that we were at the age where we were either going to be heavily ingrained into the car scene and can’t turn back or we were going to put this hobby behind us. The Cars and Coffee meet is full of the people who are in love with cars and are deep within the automotive scene. Cars and Coffee draws people of all ages, races, and backgrounds together. You can see all types of car modifications from track-oriented to hot rods.

    The cars at Cars and Coffee are kept extremely clean, like this Porsche 911.

  • The Night Ends.

    The Night Ends.

    It has been awhile since some of us have seen each other and been able to hangout. So, we decided to go to our old familiar hang out spots to just hang out like the good old days. This familiar place is called “The Lair.” Why? Because this is the place we would always end our night of doing hoodrat stuff together. It is an awesome place to be and the lighting there is quite interesting; always get some memorable shots.

    A quick video filmed and edited by Shavi W. of what the Lair is about. Friends and good times.

    Three perfect examples of the good-side of the Honda community, which we all hear negative things all the times, whether it is the driver or the car itself.
