NEW CAR | The REAL Reason Alex Sold His S14?! (4K)
When friends of mine heard that I sold my Nissan S14, complete with a Vertex body kit and SR20DET engine, to go searching for a Honda Beat, I was met with a mix of disbelief and confusion. The transition from a kitted, turbocharged, three-piece wheel-equipped Japanese classic to a tiny kei car isn’t one most car enthusiasts would make lightly.
However, my decision was driven by a combination of practical reasons, emotional connections, and a desire for a different kind of automotive joy. It was time for me to chase something new.
My three-year journey with the S14 began as the re-emergence of a dream. The Nissan S14, with its aggressive styling and SR20DET engine, was me chasing everything...

Seattle's BEST Car Culture Weekend! (4K)
Просмотров 8 тыс.21 час назад
As summer approaches each year, we eagerly anticipate the "Wekfest Weekend" in Seattle, which we fondly refer to as the best weekend for car culture in Seattle. Wekfest itself is undoubtedly the highlight, and in our opinion, it’s the best car show in the Pacific Northwest. However, this weekend is about much more than just Wekfest. It marks the beginning of the car season, with the weather usu...

"There is no such thing as a self-made man. We are made up of thousands of others. Everyone who has ever done a kind deed for us, or spoken one word of encouragement to us, has entered into the make-up of our character and of our thoughts, as well as our success." - George Matthew Adams I feel like this quote does a nice job summarizing my thoughts after experiencing all of the highs and lows o...
Why Did The Moistboys Quit Youtube?! (4K)
Просмотров 8 тыс.Месяц назад
Last weekend, Dylan and I embarked on a last-minute adventure to Vancouver Island, to visit Adam from Moistboys and stay at his beautiful house tucked just a few minutes from the beach in Oak Bay. The original plan for the trip was to go spend some time with Adam, Ben, Josh and Dalton for a weekend, as well as to collect an assortment of car parts, accessories, seats and wheels that Adam had br...
Somebody DAMAGED Our G35! (4K)
Просмотров 4,6 тыс.Месяц назад
Welcome back to another weekly update video! With summer just around the corner, our warehouse has been buzzing with activity as we tackle various car projects. Unfortunately, we hit a snag when a neighbour at the warehouse managed to drop a double-stack pallet on the passenger fender of our G35, causing a substantial kink along the bodyline. While the damage wasn't too severe, it left us feeli...
SUPER WIDE Wheels For The Cressida! | Kaido Racer X7 (4K)
Просмотров 7 тыс.Месяц назад
Unboxing these 3-Piece Starsharks has been one of the highlights of my year, because it's one of the biggest moves we've made towards bringing our Cressida another step closer to really becoming a kaido racer. There seems to be some controversy around running these new Starsharks on a kaido racer, which I think stemmed from how they were previously sold as 1-piece wheels made to look like 3-pie...
Silvia Drifting, Cressida Revival, and Scooters! (4K)
Просмотров 6 тыс.Месяц назад
We started the week off with a visit to Mission Raceway where our friend Julian was drifting his S15. We thought this would be a great opportunity to check the track out for ourselves, as well as test out our new umbrellas. Feeling inspired, we brought our beloved Cressida into the shop for some much-needed repair. When we first lowered the car, I really had not anticipated what a challenge it ...
Did America Step Up Their JDM Culture?! (4K)

Another week, another Checkpoint video! The weather has been getting better and better here in the PNW and that meant a fun, full weekend of living car life. We started off by saving Adam (ADAM 6) from the horrors of public transit and picked him up at the ferry to drive him to his importer's yard to collect yet again, another Civic Type R sedan. After helping Adam out we got a call from Sandra...

    The rear window. Does it zip off like a MX5? On the MX5 you are supposed to unzip the rear window before you drop the roof down to prevent it from folding.
