Toned Kouki:

Neek wrote, “I met up with the homie Nick from Spring Mountain Auto Body to shoot his super sick Kouki. As I followed him to do the shoot I can see his crazy camber on his 19×9.5+6 / 19×11-17 Work Varianza’s. Passing thru traffic I can see the light reflecting on his custom 2 toned paint job with the metallic sparkle glittering.

My music was blasting in the ride, but it over took it by Nick’s SR20DET with a Garrett GT2871R Turbo spooling right next to me.

Did a Video shoot and Pics…so check it out below!”

Title: US Racer Ryan Romaine Running on EBC Yellowstuff Brakes and USR Sport Rotors with Great Success!

I have been doing a lot of work to the car, I did a full Chargespeed Type 1-A Body kit from Japan for the shows. I have also done a lot more suspension work to the car for the track such as steering stabilizers, frame bracing, Solid bushings, BFGoodrich R1 Track Tires. The car handles amazing now with just a bit more frame stiffening and Track tires. I just recently just shot for Import Tuner Magazine so hopefully my feature article will be out in the next few months. I wanted to know if I would be able to get some more EBC brake pads from you. I Just recently wore out my Yellowstuff brakes. The rotors seem to be holding up just fine for the type of heat and braking I am giving them. I wanted to see if I would be able to get a set of Bluestuff brake pads to test out and a spare set of yellowstuff brake pads.

The brakes work fantastic and I would have no hesitation in recommending these having run half a season on one set of yellows. The Bluestuff brakes sound fun and I look forward to running those and comparing to the yellows.

Title: “SPOCOM Featured Show Car – According to Style. Team Hybrid’s 2004 Accord Coupe is sporty, spacious, efficient, luxurious, and beautifully crafted. Come take a closer look at another vehicle for the SPOCOM Super Show.”

The Accord is one of those rare machines that leaves you marveling at its brilliance. Looking under the hood is a paradigm of refinement. The custom intstrument panel on the dashboard is clean, modern, and easy to read. The cockpit is wrapped with rich leather, smoothly integrated curves, and appealing accents. Sunny’s 2004 Accord Coupe is sporty, spacious, efficient, luxurious, and beautifully crafted for Team Hybrid’s selection of cars. The new style in and out can remain controversial but any way you look at it, virtually all of the changes are for the better putting this Accord on a whole new level of respect. Check out the modifications on Sunny’s Accord.
