Mean Machine // Coki’s 779HP Civic EG6

Take the horsepowers of two 370Z’s and then add 10%. 779HP. A wild performance figure for Coki’s built-for-streets, raced-on-strips Civic EG6. Based upon Honda’s B18C VTEC engine with an extra turbo, the seriously mean machine tears drag strips regularly while still being driven all the way across Jakarta-Bandung occasionally. “Sometimes you can consider the highway as a 120KM strip,” he …

Permaisuri Thursday // Cayman on HRE

No doubt HRE is one of our favorite wheels in the market. After the MINI Cooper on R series last week, today Permaisuri comes back with yet another HRE build. Posh, sporty and exciting, today’s Cayman has been fitted with a set of P series HRE, type P107 to be precise. Unlike the R series which have been designed with …

A Nation’s Pride // TRD Indonesia GT86 Concept Car

Toyota. The brand most well-known for its expertise in efficiency, practicality and reliability. All of which are the very fundamental factors that determine the success of mass-produced vehicles. Undoubtedly the company has been very good at it, even perhaps world’s best. But how can the company cater to those consumers whose heads are filled with horsepower figures and whose ears …

Permaisuri Thursday // MINI Cooper S on HRE

Most people are lured into buying aftermarket wheels because of their good looks. Few others are more concerned towards the wheels’ strength and potential weight-savings. Adding wheels’ costs to those factors and we’d have a pretty good idea at the market’s preference for wheels. At this current moment, I believe, Indonesia is still having a large market share of “good …

Wallpaper Wednesday // Novitec Torado Aventador LP700-4

How could you possibly improve on excellence? I guess we could all totally understand the concepts behind tuning companies such as Brabus, Hamann, TechArt and many others; which has always succeeded in turning civilian cars into high performance, aggressively tuned vehicles. One recent read on Speedhunter’s Brabus article, for example, revealed just how unbelievably extreme has the company tuned some …

Show Off // Riph’s Celica on Work

For today’s Show Off article I’d like to present to you something rather unusual found on our streets: an aggressively lowered 2005 Toyota Celica! Built by Toyota during the early 2000s, this seventh generation Celica proved to be the last and the best iteration to Toyota’s compact sports car of the period. Light, nimble and arguably good-looking, the platform became …

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 …

Nuvolks Morning Run 17 Nov 2013 // Photo Coverage

Today I have a set of freshly edited photos off Winston’s computer. It’s the Nuvolks Morning Run held Sunday 17 November 2013. With meeting point being Panahan Senayan at 5:30AM, the cruise was attended by 20-or-so watercooled Volks and friends. Panahan – Sentul City – VW BSD was the route. The drizzly morning was warmed by plenty of turbo boosts …

Profound Warrior // Richard’s Aristo on BC Forged

The road less traveled. As you might’ve already noticed, most of the cars featured on our site have always been equipped with bolt-on made-for-a-specific-model aftermarket parts. Proper. Neat. And more importantly reliable. Whether it’d be a set of Kahn bodykit or iND custom painted parts or even the GT86 bolt-on turbo kit. We love all of these mods because they …

Permaisuri Thursday // Evoque on DPE

What’s the most stylish SUV/crossover on our streets right now? Must be the Evoque! Contemporary, modern and perfectly suitable for the fashion seekers, Land Rover has combined the seductive looks of coupe design with the practicality of an off-roader. A weird formula for sure, but a very successful one nonetheless. What we have today is a rather special Evoque that’s …

Wallpaper Wednesday // McLaren MP4-12C

Meet the MP4-12C; the subtle supercar. With its dynamic suspensions system, welcoming interior and excellent daily-drivability, the MP4-12C is the supercar wrapped under a great load of practicalities. Yet it is still outperforming the performance of its rivals in the market. What lies underneath is a 600bhp+ 3.8 litre twin-turbo V8 combined with a vehicle mass that’s just under 1,400kg. …

A yearly business trip for Mr Oliver, he came all the way from Germany to meet Iwan and Alvin of KW Indonesia. As a means to keep up with …

Posh Cruiser // Aimgain Lexus RX on Vossen

This week we’ve had quite a few SUVs posted on the site. We’ve had the HRE Tiguan by Permaisuri posted last week and the Rennen Forged CX-7 posted some days ago. These rides are true exhibits demonstrating the fact that current trends don’t always have to revolve around aggressive fitments. After all, on these terrible streets we’ve been stuck with, …

Permaisuri Thursday // 3 Series E90 on Modulare

One of the world’s most renowned sculptor once said, “simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” Simplicity? Well, looking at the current trends in the automotive customization industry these days, seems like the same concept is still greatly pursued. Some of the most admirable builds (such as this Beetle from Canibeat) look almost way too simplistic at one glance, yet a closer …

Wallpaper Wednesday // Donny’s 330ci

Rare. Slammed. Mint. Donny’s E46 is definitely one of, if not the nicest, aggressively fitted 330ci’s out there. Sitting on a set of step lipped Work Meisters and set up with Ksport air suspension system, Donny goes through his daily routines with this beloved Bimmer. “Rolling low and parked lower” is his motto. Check out the download links below! Or …

Permaisuri Thursday // Tiguan on HRE

Meet the Tiguan. The famous Golf’s taller, larger and more adventurous older brother. Unfortunately, unlike it’s hatchback sibling’s worldwide popularity, the Tiguan is sort of lagging behind when it comes to sales, especially in the US. Reviewers say perhaps it’s due to the awkward proportions, or the “nothing to see here” styling of the exteriors, or the uninspiring “just another …

Wallpaper Wednesday // Gallardo LP560-4

I just can’t believe the fact that the Gallardo is 10 years old already. I mean look at the LP560-4 we have today as our Wallpaper Wednesday. Striking. Modern. Still very sharp. A timeless representation to Lamborghini’s best-selling platform that has helped bringing the company to where it is today. This particular facelifted version shot by Charles J has been …

With an AVO turbo kit and a mod-list so staggering that it should definitely be considered as one of finest 86’s in town; Heintje has surely known his way around building some great modded rides. Today our team has had the chance to shoot his other ride, the Mercedes Benz …
