Here’s a little photo dump from the recent video on Drift Bashes: Looking back, the E36 was heaps of fun to drift in. I loved every second of it; it’s just a very tiring car. It’s ideal for someone else to do what I did, and if they wanted to, they could throw some serious effort at it to make it look right.

Ironically, for a channel and blog that talks about “Ireland’s Finest” and style, this car doesn’t represent much of that, if im being honest. When we posted this, we had our hands on the cheap-ish 350z and tried our best to make it as presentable as possible. I’ll always have fond memories of this machine, but the time has come to let it go to the next guy. Im always very grateful for the Club Loose guys and the Drift Games lads for letting us come up and throw ourselves around the track.

Anyway, here are a few photos we took from that weekend; I always take very little as I’m mostly petrified of driving, which hopefully will subside as I get the hang of going sideways—massive shout-out to Niall for replacing the wiper linkage on Sunday morning. Good times!

Unfortunately, I didn’t get a chance to make it to last year’s AE86 festival. A close friend was getting married, and there was no way out. Instead, our friend Adam Osborne was there to capture the day with Flip and Josh on the video camera. I wish I could’ve been, as it’s probably one of the best days out, and that’s not being biased toward my favourite chassis; it’s just a decent day filled with a very high percentage of good machines. I’ll let Adams Photo Gallery do much of the talking here, as there are plenty of really nice photos for the eyes. We are fortunate to have such a vibrant AE86 scene here in Ireland.

Ireland is packed with sheds; when you think you’ve seen or heard about it all, something comes down the wire, and you must check it out. Paul Stryker and family have been in the scene for years, and Paul himself is a big Nissan guy. He asked us to look at the family collection some time ago, and it didn’t disappoint. The chicken sheds on the land were filled with cool cars like this Ex Uras R34 skyline, which survived the Ireland import boom in the 2010s.

A little escape from the grind with a few friends, pushing the limits of their road-going 4A-GE AE86s and some shed shenanigans.

I have a lot of respect for Bryan, I’d be completely lost without him steering the ship on this build, when things get a little daunting, he’s usually there throwing some sort of suggestion or idea that saves the day. A few nights before the car went for paint we installed the Tomei Poncams, and it really opened my eyes up to just how much effort goes into this stuff.  I’ll let the photos speak for themselves here, Im sure most of you landed here due to the videos, as I’ve mentioned many times Im incredibly grateful to be surrounded by the right kind of people on this build.

Welcome to the Juicebox BBQ – an annual event that celebrates the best of the Irish car scene. Here is a photoset from the 2021 BBQ, which was a little damp but didn’t stop people from making an effort. It’s incredible to see the kind of machines tucked away in this country. You don’t often see them on the roads, but you experience a complete sensory overload at this event. For those of you who have been curious about the Juicebox BBQ, it’s an invite-only event. We get together with our friends to celebrate all things automotive and appreciate the cars we’ve either created or taken care of over the years. Unfortunately, we can’t make this a public event due to space and resource limitations. However, we’ve put together a gallery of some of the great cars that appeared at this event to appreciate the hard work and dedication that goes into these machines.

We post almost everything that came to the BBQ on our website so everyone can get a taste of our vibrant, high-quality lesser-seen car scene Ireland offers. It’s an honour to know such fascinating people from all walks of life who share a passion for cars. The Juicebox BBQ celebrates the friendships we’ve created over the years and the incredible machinery that bring us together. We hope you enjoy this gallery and get a glimpse into the fantastic automotive community that we’re lucky to be a part of.

This car is near and dear to the heart of its owner, Reuben. The last time we saw the Reuben mobile in this guise, he had just returned from a track day and, unfortunately, cracked a piston. But that didn’t stop him from bringing it out for a sun-kissed photoshoot. We shot these photos towards the tail end of our extended summer in Ireland, which stretched to late September. We took advantage of the evening and did our “final shoot” of the car in this livery and look.

We head to the annual AE86 festival to check out Ireland’s finest examples of Corollas, Levin’s, Truenos and more.

The trip to Adam’s house was wild, from hanging out with Mike and the crew to driving LZ’s Porsche through the streets at night. I’ll let the photos do the talking here, as I said enough in the recap video. let’s just say, Adam is living everyone’s dream to pretty much complete Gran Turismo in real life.

Following our special on this D1 AE86 Resurrection, we take a closer look at this legendary build, with a bonus history of Ryota Yuasa’s Levin throughout the years. Happy New year, everyone!

New Wheels for the AE86, and we take a look at the Daily drivers with project updates.

A tour of Ireland’s largest private collection of Toyota Starlet Turbos and AE86s.

Shane is a reserved character. Like I said in the recent video about this car, he keeps to himself. On social media, the odd post here or there about his car pops up, and he’s never actively posting the cool stuff he’s posting in his shed at home.

When I saw his Levin pop up online, it instantly caught my attention. Inspired by the Young Version / Run free collaboration car that famously graced the pages of Hyper Rev magazine and was done pretty much to perfection, I had to reach out and chat.
