(New photos of the E92 under READ) - Well, not really. It wasn't that awful. Somehow I got persuaded to go out to the Formula Drift Red Bull Championship event out in Long Beach. Against my better judgment I agreed, since I haven't been to an entire event all year and figured I'd see if I still remembered how to use a camera. I won't spend too much time ranting about the spectacular logistics, but c'mon guys - having a shuttle to the venue from a parking lot that wasn't even close? Who thought that would go down right? And how about those people that ran those shuttles... wow, who lost that bet. Anyways, I woke up sick Saturday so I already felt like total ass and with half ... READ

Thanks to my girl Gene Tjin, my 335i got a new exhaust today. Out went the Borla and on went a full cat-back Magnaflow exhaust system and it's great. Nice and quiet and the full cat-back is a nice upgrade from the axle-back system from the Borla. Gene also took some time out of the day to shoot some new photos of the car for me and I edited some of them including my amazingly horrible edit of the front rig shot. But I'm tired and lazy and sometime this weekend I'll touch it up completely so it's really nice. Click on the READ for the rest of the photos.
The car is also for sale if anyone is interested. I am asking $48,000 as is. Here is a complete mod list of the car:

If you're reading this blog then chances are you know at one point in time I spent a ridiculous amount of money into a 1994 Acura Integra Sedan. Recently the car was thrown onto a trailer and was sold to someone that will get much better use out of it than I ever would. So I wanted to take a look back at how this entire project started, why I bothered with it and how it ended up the way it did.
Sometime during the last SEMA IAS show in Philadelphia, I was walking around with Peter Tarach, then East Coast Editor of Modified Magazine, and trying to figure out tech content for the beginning of 2007. The Modified Magazine 350Z project was coming to an end, and so was the Subaru project and my tC was nearing its final set... READ

This time in 2004 was when Tunerzine.com was first born. I originally had the idea of doing a drift media website (www.projectdrift.com) but after speaking with Donny Mak and teaming up with him, we decided that a full automotive sport compact website would be the way to go. Originally we just anticipated a site to showcase our work and to write a few articles here and there, but here we are in 2008 as one of the Internet's largest automotive sport compact websites. A few versions later and gathering up many talented photographers and designers along the way, I'm very happy to look back and see everything we've accomplished in the last few years.
Last year both Donny and I were able to attend SEMA as representatives of Tunerzine but this year we decided to stay beh... READ

Late last year I was approached by CarTech books to author a How To Rebuild a B-Series book for them following my departure as the West Coast Editor of Modified Magazine. I was fortunate enough to have the aid of Mike Martinez over at Plan B Motorsports to complete the book earlier this year. It's now available for purchase all over. Help me out if you have any sort of interest in the coveted Honda B-series engine by purchasing a copy! How To Rebuild Honda B-Series Engines.
A few months back, I finally met Josh Mackey when he came down to Southern California. I was talking to him about how I had just finished the B-ser... READ
