Forged Steel // Franky’s Evolution VIII MR on Volk Racing

Looking back at the world’s history, it could be said that one of the most influential achievements of mankind is the usage of iron. From the ancient era to the present; from simple tools meant for everyday tasks, to the highly advanced machineries meant for scientific studies, a hint of iron is bound to be found. Often ‘modified’ together with …

JDM Hero // Sanadi’s Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII MR on Volk Racing

When Mitsubishi announced that they’ll stop producing the Evo, and with no apparent successor in sight, the motoring world is in total loss. It is understandable though, since the ‘affordable turbocharged 4WD 4-door sedan with WRC heritage’ has become a smaller and smaller market over time. Only time will tell whether Mitsubishi will continue Lancer Evolution’s legacy. Such discontinuation, however, …

Rough Diamond // Ton’s Evolution IX on TE37

Boy, I’ve always been fascinated by diamonds. They’re the final result of carbons being pressurised under an extremely long period of time. They are known to be notoriously expensive in their standard form, and could reach astronomical prices given the right conditions, which could reach up to 350 million dollars. For a single rock, that’s outstanding. Aside from their mesmerising …

JDM.RUN February Cruise // Photo Coverage

The beginning of the year has no doubt been a rather depressing time for us Jakarta car enthusiasts. From floods to potholes-parties on the streets, to heavy traffics. But these past few days we’ve been seeing nicer and nicer weather with clearer skies springing out of the days. So what comes naturally are more frequent meets and gatherings of us …

Velocity // 3037S HKS Evo IX MR from Surabaya

These days two things are definitely true in our car culture. 1) Money can’t buy taste. 2) Money can’t even always buy you the cars. Take today’s case of the Lancer Evolution IX MR as an example. I was quite surprised finding out that the second-hand prices of these older gen Evo’s are comparable to that of the Evo X. …

Show Off // Arief’s RVR on Volk Racing

Every once in a while we’d come across builds that go way beyond people’s expectations. Yes, we’ve featured Lamborghini’s with carbon bodykit the price of a car. Yes we’ve featured rides with wheels alone costing more than $10k. But most of the time, the bottom-line of these mods contributes to only a small fraction of the car’s price. So what’s …

Sportscar Community December Run // Photo Coverage

December proved to be the greatest time for communities to held end-of-year gatherings. While most people were on vacations, car lovers got the opportunity to enjoy a less-congested Jakarta. Just couple of weeks ago we joined the JDM.RUN December cruise, and today I present to you an even larger morning run arranged by Sportscar Community. Held on December 29th with …

Wallpaper Wednesday // Matte Blue Evolution VIII MR from Palembang

Yes. Another Lancer Evolution as our Wallpaper Wednesday! I think we’re having a rather Japanese-week-theme this time. Last week we’ve posted Didi’s Evolution rolling-shot capture during JDM.RUN and today we have a sent-in all the way from Palembang. Captured by Ricky Tjandra, the Evolution VIII MR has been featured before on our site (check this link), but this time there’s …

Permaisuri Thursday // Evolution X on Weds

After posting hundreds of featured cars over these past few years at HnP, I’ve learned one fact about the Indonesian car culture: Japanese performance car owners have some of the longest mod-spec-lists in town. GTR, S2000, Evolution, Subaru, for example, have proven themselves to be the perfect platforms from which an owner could build his/her childhood dream rides; thus installing …

STI LOL // Sanadi’s Widebody GTX3076 Evo 8 MR

When men first succeeded in mass producing the automobiles, there was only one model to buy – The Ford Model T. A pioneer of its age. A childhood dream for most of the boys from that era. A symbol of freedom and achievement to those who can afford it. It was the historic massal beginning for humans to start bonding …

May the Sun Set // Dennis’ Evolution X on TE37SL

I wake up everyday finding myself checking out latest posts from Jalopnik, Speedhunters, Canibeat and StanceNation. Daily updates from these sites have pretty much given me the latest info on new car releases, the hottest wheels in the scenes and most recent automotive events around the world. Years after years have passed with such a routine and sometimes things are …
