OH, HOW PLANS CHANGE | JDMWheels.com.au


Well you would have seen all over the facebook page I put the wagon up for sale last week, and it come to an end on Friday arvo.

Everything was looking great a few days before, till a buyer removed his bid of $7100 and then did not bid again.... no one bided again actually. But it had reached the reserve (I dropped during the auction) so I was willing to let it go for the winning bid of $6550.... but after trying to contact the buyer it seemed he was no longer interested and made me waste the cost of listing the ad on Ebay.

Anyway, I decided to keep it and build it more... the only reason I wanted to sell it was to build something over the next few months till I get my license back.... so now I will just build the wagon more!

I had plans going through my head so fast that they would go straight out the same day... But I have locked in a solid plan for the wagon and everything is moving ahead!

I will give a hints of one of the things to come.... It will be staying on 15"s

With a massive thanks to Daniel at JDMWheels.com.au 


I am the happy new owner of a set of Impul Hoshino Racing G5s 


in 5 stud... YEP... SO HAPPY!! haha

I have been a huge fan of the wheels for so long, and I never thought I would own at set to myself!

Plans for them are to step them out, arghh, could say massively.. but that will come when money allows it!

Can't thank JDMWheels enough for getting these for me... Have had a smile on my face for the last 3 hours! 

Head over to JDMWheels Facebook page and give them a like to stay up with the latest wheels they have to offer!

Thanks, Streetkarnage.

CARWASH | EUROFEST


After a decent night out in the city, we woke up mega hungover and tired as... We all checked out of the hotel to head to a carwash that happened to get lost trying to find.


The cars got a well deserved bath one by one!


Time to make our way to eurofest, and show how us QLDers do it.

If you attended eurofest.... we were pretty late... (haha) Well we got lost again trying to find the location.... Damn Sydney!

Thanks, Streetkarnage.

ZEN GARAGE | SK INVADES

Arriving in Sydney after the epic amount of travel,, with no sleep under our belts (maybe a few of us having a little nap in the cars) spirits at an all time low... but we didn't just go to the hotel to crash out and rest... we did what most people would do when driving slammed cars to Sydney.

WENT AND CHECKED OUT ZEN GARAGE!

Last time we headed to Sydney for Showcased, our plan was to make it to Zen but unforgettably they didn't open on the Saturday before... so this trip it was a must!

We got lost through the city but after the piss stop we re-grouped and check the maps to get us on the right roads to get us here.


Pulling up first thing we seen was the huge illest and allstars banners, then following the banners it make you look down a dingy dark, plain out rad looking alley and at the end the Zen Garage sign.


We lined the cars up down the alley and jumped out to check out the place and pretty much just chill the fuck out!


Massive thanks to the guys at All Stars and Zen Garage... possible the best way to be welcomed... a heap of coronas and BBQ was just what we needed!

You all made us very welcome... totally need more guys in the scene like this bunch!!! YEP!

After chillin' and just relaxing for a while, I started to wonder through the Garage... the first thing I seen was this fixie/cruiser awesomeness! 
Also in sort of hidden, but not hidden room there was a well set out gallery... showing some of the best automotive photography work from a bunch of talented dudes!!

So much character in this place... simply can not have found a better location for a garage / shop / chill shack!


After you have entered the shop and checked out the gallery... first thing you see is the line up of project cars that Zen has in the works!



I couldnt actualy go any further into the shop cause the smell of that food pulled me out side for something to eat and another beer! hahaha


By the time I got back in the place had started filling up with people shopping, talking cars and just looking around taking the place in.



The place is laid out so well... from having clothes racks next to place you can sit down and have a read through some awesome car mags.


Then you look over your shoulder and the guys are working on the shop project cars that I mentioned earlier.



The TRIIPN evo was parked up out the front... such a cool looking car!



We spent a few hours at Zen, just chilling, relaxing and talking about cars, girls and the scene!

Huge thanks again needs to go out to all the guys!


Doesn't matter how many photos we show you of this place, its just one of them places you just have to check out for yourself!

When you leave the place your still unsure of what it is.... only way I could describe it is a HUB, yeah I think that makes sense... hahaha see I'm still confused about it... haha..  but it definitely is one thing.... AWESOME!




We headed back to the hotel to check in and get some well deserved rest!

I could say we drove to the hotel as respectable motorist, but I would be lying!!! hahaha

Skids and dragging sparks through the city was the best!



The Hotel was not expecting this on a Saturday afternoon haha




and that was it time to crash out for a few hours... so we could hit the town till the early morning!

Thanks, Streetkarnage.
