It’s been a long time since I’ve been to this corner of California. I used to swing by every other weekend just to sleep over and make shitty fried rice. Well, things change, people grow apart, and memories are just that…memories. So, it was cool to see some of the guys that I haven’t seen because of whatever they have going on in their lives. I forgot how much fun it was when we just hung out and did random shenanigans.
Our good friend Syo Kuwabara from Niigata, Japan has always been making incredible scale models, either based on real-life cars or creations that are original. This time, he made one that hits us at home with this 1:24 scale model of Vinh Luong’s Subaru STi on Work CR-Kai. You can see the time and effort Kuwabara put into it to get it just right.
You probably thought this was a real car for a very brief moment.
Even down to the very kit that Vinh is on is pretty accurate!
Rear shot with the exhaust. Such beautiful work.
This 1:24 scale model even has great fitment.
Hope you guys enjoyed this scale model, because we love scale models. Thank you very much, Kuwabara, for taking the time and effort to make this and even send us the shots. I know you made this for yourself because you love it, so thank you for the love.

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.
