OXER | LEGEND

If your into the fitment scene in Australia (or even the world) you would know the name Oxer... He is the front runner for StanceWorks Australia and has owned some killer Hondas!

I have been sitting on these few images for a while now... well since Showcased, and being the slack person that I am and not posting much the last week, I think its time to share them!

Regarding Showcased, you would recall we did a bit of an epic road trip from Gold Coast to Sydney... well we weren't the only people that made the long journey... The StanceWorks Aus crew heading up from Melbourne for the day and got Crew of the Day Award!

Well here is his Honda Legend... enjoy...

The first thing that you notice about this car are the wheels... they started as Mugen M7s but copping a lot of treatment from the guys over at Apartment 9 in the states.. they have been stepped to 17x9.5 and filled and drilled to 5 stud... the finish and quality is simply amazing on these wheels and with the full air suspension set up including of.. Air Force Struts and AccuAir Management.. slamming the car only millimetres from the ground, they set the car of amazingly! 

Getting past the first thing that jumped out at me, I started looking over the car and kept finding so many cool little Japanese features.. Oxers previous Honda "UMAD" that some/most should know it was styled with the USDM scene in mind... so its great to see this car head in a completely different direction... it really is all in the detail!

 Talking with Ox on the day, I dig his laid back attitude about the car... he informed that it had been sitting in his driveway / frontyard for around about 16 months before he started doing some work on it getting it ready for daily driving use... yep, this is his daily! 

Hopefully I get the chance to see this car in person at some stage!

Thanks, Streetkarnage.

LOWLY GENTS

I got word that the Lowly Gentlemen where in town by Alex, that had meet them at the end of the month JDMST meet on monday night. He informed me that they want to do a shoot on his RX before they took off back home!

I got a text later that same day from Alex saying... that they wanted to do it today and for him to select a good beach location!

He chose to do it at the Currumbin Alley and this being only around the corner from my house he asked if I wanted to come.. This was a no brainer for me with Alex copping an Instant Reply of "HELLZ YEAH!!!" I was stoked at the Idea to meet the boys from SW and its always good to have a rad chill session at a shoot and talk crap about the things we love, CARS! (haha)

I ended up getting the camera out and got a couple of shots.... but make sure to check out the The Lowly Gentlemen on StanceWorks for the full shoot.... trust me this is only a sneak peak, I cant wait to see the full shoot by Dom and Oxer!

anyways enough bloody words... here are some pics....

The man himself, Oxer working his skills on the RX.... It was a bit frantic at first as the sun was about to go behind some clouds, so both Oxer and Dom were shooting at it in ever angle possible.

the new Black roof is so very AWESOME!

This photo sums up the arvo for me... Being the fricken unpredictable Gold Coast weather we have here.. the sun was setting and the storm was rolling in..!!

Had a ball, and was a shame I had to skip out early to get to a previously arranged dinner :( If you Gents read this.. was awesome to meet you and hopefully get to do so again in the future.

and again make sure to check out StanceWorks to get not only this shoot but the ridiculous amount of shoots they did on the cars, of the south east Queensland!!

Thanks,

Streetkarnage.

THE GODFATHER

Well if you think about the stance scene, for me one name and car comes to mind!!


Mike Burroughs and his Rusty BMW


This BMW has gone through more changes then house's I have lived in, and I am constantly blown away by it..

Go to his Flickr to check out his work and also you can see rusty in his many stages.

Interior on it matches the exterior to a T, Pure ratty-ness!!

17x9 -10 and 17x11 -10 24k Gold Plated magnesium Ronal Racing splits.

Struts shortened, strut mounts raised, frame notched, etc, to drop it another 4 inches.


The body work is rubbed in used diesel oil to blacken the metal and rust.

Could you imaging seeing this roll past you on the way to the shops.

The Godfather has had the top chopped 5" from stock.

anyway if you haven't all ready get over to StanceWorks to check it out and join up..

Thanks
