Classic Japan Twins // Jason and Eric x Integra Type R
It started off as an accidental inspiration when I (Jason) detailed Eric’s car couple of years ago. It looks real-nice and clean after the detailing process was finished. From that day onwards, it became an obsession for me to build one DC2R myself; tuned according to my taste. Therefore I slowly collected all the parts before even getting the car …

Grown to Speed // Honda S2000 on TE37SL
These days I think the ‘stance’ car scenes are pretty much like desserts. They have a large fan-base, have very nice exterior presentations, and showcase some nicely executed, flavourful experiences. Yet not everyone likes them, and frankly they’re not too good for your health either (or car’s health in this matter). Slammed, static, bagged, we’ve seen and heard about them …

However, despite all those ‘boring’ aspects as vehicles, Honda has also built some of the greatest sportscar model the world has ever seen. NSX, Integra, Prelude, S2000, for example, have won the hearts of many. Today we have the Prelude …

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 …

Show Off // Duta’s Accord on BC Forged
On today’s Show Off short article, we have a 2007 Honda Accord that’s been frequently seen at Jakarta’s recent meets and shows.

Show Off // New Accord on HRE
On today’s Show Off article, I have a build that’s rather unusual. Starting things off, we have car that obviously hasn’t been seen too often on our streets these days – the New Honda Accord.

Senior Stance // Ahmad’s Grand Civic on Zender
The fourth generation Civic has been around since 1987, it was the last carbureted Civic in Indonesia. These days, there are not so many of this breed left around, let alone an aggressively fitted one. Ahmad chose this platform because it’s still one of the rarer platforms to be modified; and being the first-ever Civic with independent rear suspensions, it’s …

Know Your Roots // Franky’s Stream RSZ on Volk Rays
Should lambos be bagged? Are excessive cambers pointless? What about air suspension? A lot people these days are bashing too much on what other people are doing to their cars, with arguments ranging from “ruining cars” to “doing expensive wastes”. Is it a good decision to ruin a Subaru’s ability in tackling terrains by lowering the car so much that …

“All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.” (Walt Disney) Dreams set the goals while efforts take you there.

That Red Van // Edbert’s Odyssey on Modulare
Every once in a while, car enthusiasts turn into different directions in regard to personal modification preferences. Some migrate from being JDM fans to Euro fans. Others evolve from stance lovers to VIP worshippers. Few, however, stick to being performance lovers – squeezing every single possible horsepower out of the ride’s engine. Edbert used to be one of those, the …

One Fat Fit // Abdee’s Jazz on CCW Classic
Counting the number of Jazz’s in Jakarta would be as easy as counting the spots of a Dalmation. Honda has sold thousands of them and I bet hundreds can be seen during your daily trip to work. Plagued by such substantial population, a lot of Jazz owners have gotten creative and started prepping out their rides like no other. Quite …

Childhood Dream // K20A Civic Estilo on Volk
Never before I’ve seen a three-page specification list document being submitted to hawk’n’poke’s email. Never before I’ve seen such a simple looking car with tons of work actually been done underneath it. Never before I’ve seen a 1995 car that’s been rebuilt with so much passion. Only in dreams, I thought. But then Mex submitted this K20A Estilo owned by …
