This was such a massive milestone for the build; looking back, being able to roll the car out under its weight and just looking at something that sat as a shell for so long reminded me the misery was worth the wait. What I find hilarious is the trusty Prius in the background, a car I expected very little out of but it’s literally my lifeline to work, 1300k a week, and it just keeps chugging, yet it received very little love.

We partner with a local Cars and Coffee event and gather for a night cruise in this one. A somewhat raw collection of footage.

This is a photo of the absolute madness I ended up handing over cash last year. I had seen the post on Facebook for a job lot of old Japanese radios, and I knew id love to own them. Why I’m not sure, I love old head units. If you are a viewer of the youtube channel, you’ve probably seen the episode by now where we call up to MR X, and I come home with a tray full of gauges and about 30 head units, some of them still had mini discs, tapes and CDs in them.

You’d miss having Evan at the shed, he moved out to his home house a few months back, and there’s been an absence of his deep rural Irish humour. We shot these photos the weekend I was going to launch a video about his recently imported GX71 Cresta; I needed some B roll shots and decided to do a little shoot of the car out in our ring arena.

These are a few shots from our video we did not too long ago; this was a night when Jackie asked if I wanted to get a sneak peek of probably the coolest honda to ever end up in Ireland. This is J’s racing CRX EF8 car which was in hot version and options video, famous for lightening quick speeds around Tsukuba it ended up in Ireland during our incredible import boom of the late 2000s

A closer look at our friend’s Mitsubishi Evo IX wagon. They only made 2500 of these, and this example is loaded with rare parts. Is the Evo wagon the coolest Japanese Family Wagon ever built? It ticks all of the boxes.

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!

A D1 Grand Prix Legend, the Bride AE86, driven by Ryota Yuasa, nicknamed The “Crash King”, a car imported to Ireland and lost to the history books until a couple of friends bring it back from the dead. An epic Irish story, from a ditch to a wedding in seven months.

We buy the cheapest Type R in the world, the forgotten CH1 Honda Accord Type R, and take a closer look to see how rusty it is!

I bolt doors and wings onto the Trueno and take it for a drive. I also ramble and bring people up to speed on what is happening with the AE86.

Our friend purchases the Forgotten RWB AE86, and we call over for a look around. We also have a famous old Honda, which we get to check out.

An Irish look around the LZ compound, we hook up with Adam LZ and Jimmy Oakes, Collaborating with Dave from Driftgames for a two-week US tour of rings drifting and car spotting.
