Make sure you check out the rest of the videos in his vimeo channel they are very well done.

I’ve been hearing about this Integra for a few months now but it’s just been hectic around here that I’ve never got the chance to shoot it until last night. At first I was expecting something that I’ve seen around the city before. Once I got talking to Alex (the owner) – he had told me that the car has barely been out and he just happened to rack up just a little over 1000km’s on the car. That’s when I started to get excited to see it.
When he drove up, I realized why guys like Jackie and Pat vouched for the car. (Not that I doubted the car). There aren’t too many nicely done turbo’d cars around town but when there is, it’s a damn nice sight to see. Tuned with Hondata S300 w/ boost solenoid, he can put down 368 at 12 lbs of boost.

And once again.. 403 represent! Thanks again to Alex for coming out and giving us the chance to shoot his whip!
This last Sunday (Sept.19,2010) Calgary and area had it’s 3rd Annual Honda/Acura Meet. Unfortunately the weather was against the group and it was cold and wet the entire day. Regardless there was a large group that was brave enough to come out and hang around.
Hopefully, with winter nearing in on Calgary, everyone can get together a few more times and give this impressive season a final good-bye before we nestle away from the snow and cold.
Now on to the pictures…
The car everyone so anxiously waited for in the rain:
Here’s a dope video from Lars down in the Netherlands reppin’ illmotion. Once again, props to them for rockin’ it hard over there. Thanks to Laurens for sharing this.

Winter is coming up and the weather is starting to suck so much that you can see your breath during the mornings and evenings. Next thing you know, there’s a foot of snow outside your driveway and there’s no such thing as tucking tire anymore.
Jackie shows everyone that there is no such thing as being too low. Some are confused as to how he does it, but he does and he does it well. Every piece of the car is put together with attention to detail – something that seems common among the other S2000 owners like Nick and Jackson.
Custom candy blue TE37’s in 18×9.5 +22 all around, ASM bumper, Spoon buckets and diffuser, J’s carbon GT wing and titanium exhaust and a whole bunch of other goodies that make this car just as good as it looks.
This will probably be the last and potentially the only shoot that we get of his car before he heads back home to Victoria, B.C. Perhaps next year he’ll have something different in store and we can get that up on illmotion for you guys as well. Enjoy.

Had the pleasure of attending the final track day for STRD on a decent holiday Monday. A lot of us were out there snapping pics, so I’ll keep mine to a minimum. I’m sure the others will post up their shots soon. A big thank you to my best friend Aubrey for letting me borrow her camera, and pretty much solidifying the fact that I need an updated camera, and to Prashant for helping me with some optimal settings.
Heres a link to more pics on my flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/aldrichevangelista/sets/72157624896216008/
A few more after the jump!
Enjoy!
About a month ago, Dimer had sent me a batch of photos from the meet and greet that took place down in Nijkerk, Netherlands. As usual, you guys will see a lot of content from the Netherlands thanks to guys like Laurens and Dimer that are extremely generous with their content – not to mention they are happy to shoot for us whenever they attend special events. In return, this allows us to see how they handle their game over there.
Thanks for the quick snaps guys.
Went out with Mike today to get the iron film put on his headlights and taillights by Steve over at Perfect Dark Tinting. Awesome job done by Steve once again! Decided to stop by a nearby loading dock to snap a few pics.
A few more pics after the jump.
Some overdue shots from weeks back when we shot Ryan, Nick and Jackson’s car out at Aspen Hills. Later during that evening Jackie and Jeevs showed up and we got them in there for some shots as well. Check it out, with more pics after the jump.
Jackie’s S2k – the candy blue TE37’s pop so nicely in these shots
And last but not least – Jeevs’ Kouki 180SX.. A while back we posted a video that he made of his 240 that you should definitely check out. Those that of you just joining us – here’s the link JDM GVS Kouki 180SX
