GALLERY>>RECENT CAR SPOTTINGS

Right now Japan is entering it's annual New Year holiday where companies shut down and everyone heads home to spend time with their families, eating traditional foods and that sort of thing. I guess its the opposite from the West where people get together with family for Christmas and then party with their buddies on New Years. Anyways, there won't be much going on here in Japan until Tokyo Auto Salon starts on January 9th....(read more)

GALLERY>>PHOTOS OF THE YEAR PART EIGHT

I'm going to continue my "Photos of the Year" contribution with some favorites of my own photos I shot this year. As I expected, it was pretty tough to limit my selections to just a handful, and I'm sure there are stories that I'm forgetting completely. Being based in Japan, I've had the opportunity to shoot some pretty remarkable things over the past months and I'm really happy with the way we have showcased the "diversity" of Japanese car culture here on...

Porsche month on Speedhunters is long over. So why would I decide to write a story about one of Japan's most influential Porsche builders, and have the aggressive wheel lip and stunningly stylish rear fender of Nakai san's Rauh Welt Porsche as...(read more)

GALLERY>> CAR STYLE AT MOONEYES PARTY PT.2

More car photos from the Mooneyes Irwindale Show... I like the colorways on this black and olive green metallic custom up front. Like I mentioned before, I'm not a fan of flames, but this car attracted me because of the non-traditional colors and...(read more)

GALLERY>>ICONIC PORSCHE LIVERIES

Porsche month on Speedhunters was packed with features and we couldn't fit everything into one month, so we decided to keep this back for a feature as the holiday season approaches. Let me know if your interested in these sort of features and I will...(read more)

GALLERY>>MORE ACTION FROM D1SL TSUKUBA

I guess you could say the 2008 drifting season is offically over now that D1 Street Legal has wrapped up its season in Japan. Now that things are slowing down for me event-wise, I'll be putting together some posts looking back at the action from this year, but before that I have more photos from last sunday's D1SL Tsukuba finale to post......(read more)

GALLERY>>PHOTOS OF THE YEAR PT.4

As I was hunting through the archives of the site picking out some of my favorite photos from the year, it really hit me just how much we have covered here on Speedhunters since launch. I'm sure a lot of you will agree with me when I say that the variety is one of the greatest parts about this site. Where else can you see high quality international coverage of sports car racing, grassroots and pro drifting, rods and customs, time attack and everything else?...(read more)

GALLERY>>PHOTOS OF THE YEAR PART3

I am being greedy, I know. The exercise for Photos of the Year was supposed to be a selection of my fav 20 photos, but I feel there are just too many great pictures from the past year, to fit into a single post! Anyway.... let's get started. Goodwood...(read more)

GALLERY>> THE ART OF PINSTRIPING

As many of you already know, the art of pinstriping is very much connected to hot rod culture. Back in the day, before it was commonplace to use die cut vinyl plotters for making stickers for cars, people used to take their cars to have their favorite...(read more)

GALLERY>>DRIFTING AT THE ROC

Ross from Doristars just sent us some photos with some very interesting content. Yep, drifting on the Race of Champions course at Wembley Stadium by drivers from the JDM Allstars series. Did they sneak in at the middle of the night when nobody was looking? I don't think so, but somehow they got access to drift on one of the most unique race courses in the world....(read more)

GALLERY>> PHOTOS OF THE YEAR PART2

When looking at the television late last night I noticed that all the channels are gearing up to make their ‘best off' compilations before the end of the year. I'm not a real fan of all these lists because all the stuff that I like isn't...(read more)

GALLERY>>MORE FROM THE MOONEYES YOKOHAMA SHOW

I have a lot of work ahead of me with all my Rev Speed Time Attack photos to sort through, but before that I wanted to post up some photos from last weekend's Yokohama Hot Rod and Custom Car Show. The machine in this photo here was my personal favorite of the entire show. It's a V8-powered gasser built out of a vintage Toyota Stout pick up truck. It has all the typical gasser features like a dropped straight axle in the front and headers protruding through the fenders. This thing should...

GALLERY>>MORE CAR SIGHTINGS IN JAPAN

I want to take a quick break from my Nismo Festival coverage to post up a some more snapshots of interesting cars I've spotted over the past couple weeks. First off, we have this cool two-tone kei van I saw in the parking lot at Tsukuba Circuit. I didn't get a look at the front, but I'm guessing it has the popular VW bus conversion on it. I think something like this would be the perfect daily driver around here....(read more)

By now, many of our Speedhunters readers have probably already read my " driving impression story " on the new Nissan 370Z. However, I wanted to take a quick look back at the design similarities between the new 370Z and the old school S30-chassis...(read more)
