After work I usually make time to browse my favorite automotive forums, blogs, sites, etc. Being that I am very Toyota influenced I do frequent a few Toyota forums like ToyotaNation and ScionLife. 



Another forum I love checking out is 9thGenCorolla.com. Now before you judge I have to give “y0aimee” a shout for showcasing some of the freshest photos that can be found on this forum.




Aimee’s 2004 Toyota Corolla S

In the car scene it’s definitely uber rare to come across ladies who are into both cars and photography. Its girls like Aimee who make us boys feel like “damn, we gotta step our game up!”.



The work Aimee’s put into her car and her photography are definitely worth taking a look at!



Check out a few shots taken by Aimee.

More photos by Aimee can be found on her photostream:

DETO: New Jersey Drive

This past weekend we went to the Club Loose season opener and Time Attack at NJ Motorsports Park.

Super-charged Z. The sound it puts out is very unique.

Here are my homies from AK Auto all the way from Queens, NY. They come hard with their fleet of AE86’s.

The Elite JDM tent, always seems to be the central hub of any club Loose event.

The man, the myth, the ledgend: Nick DAlessio standing by his S13 sex machine. I could never really get into 240’s until I saw his so tastefully done.

Check out Nick putting it down in the Jersey Streets video from this past Saturday:

Boosted Bimmer..

How did I know Mike wouldn’t take a normal picture for me?? 🙂

Spock let me take his Murder Miata out for a spin. Well balanced handling cars like this one are so addictive to drive..

On the way back to the NJ Turn Pike me and my brother were entertained by these two dare devils… I think they turned it up a notch when they realized there was a camera on them…

Saturday was central Jersey and Sunday was south Jersey. I mean, south, south Jersey. If you live in the surrounding area and never been to NJ Motor-sports Park in Millville, it’s well worth the visit. This racing facility houses 2 race tracks: the Thunderbolt Raceway and the Lightning Raceway. Not to mention the F1 kart track too… Sunday we were here for the Time Attack and there was plenty of raw power in attendance.

Here’s John and his S2K. He drove 600 miles, all the way from Canada. If that isn’t dedication…

Bill Washburn’s 240 of DENT Sport Garage

Here’s a few shots of the track.

The JTuned booth holding it down. Look out for a full feature on their shop coming soon..

The SMAX S14

Ross Miller’s PTUNING Corvette. Ross placed 1st place in modified RWD.

Scott Knott and his super sexy Lotus

iM: Mackin Industries x illmotion

This morning, I have been exchanging PM’s with Jon over at Mackin Industries and with Jon being one of the frontline guys at Mackin, we are happy to announce that we will be one of the only (if not the first) in Canada to receive the latest and greatest updates from Mackin Industries ranging from new wheels, colors, products… you name it.
I will be posting up content that I receive from Jon as soon as I get it, so if you’re following illmotion, you’ll know what’s up over at Mackin. Thanks, Jon!


As we all know, Mackin is also the manufacturer of some of the sickest wheels on the market. Here is a video showing how some of their wheels are made.

iM: JKL@STRD’s AP1 in Honda Tuning

Picked the mail up the other day and as I was flipping through it I was plesantly suprised…. bills, flyers, more bills and the new issue of Honda Tuning. Magazine subsciption mail day is pretty much my favorite mail day of the month BTW, haha. Get home and start breezing through the mag when I stumble upon none other than Jackie Law’s retarded sick AP1. Congrats again dude!

Anyways go out and grab a copy, it’s the May 2010 issue. Should be hitting the shelves any day now.


iM: EP3 Willans

Got my new pair of Willans Harnesses in the mail the other day….. white is right! Passenger one is going in once I get around to pulling the rear bench out.

Old VS New

Here’s some picture’s I found online of a CRX and CR-Z hybrid. Lined up side by side it looks great. It’s really starting to grow on me.


iM Install: TRD Rear Sway Bar on the XRS

Being that spring is upon us I decided to install my TRD Rear Sway Bar on the XRS. Install was a bit confusing at first but eventually the new sway bar was put in! This install definitely put me in the mood for this season! Until next install, folks!



























Shout out to Prashant, Punit, and Gopesh for kickin’ it with my Father and I during the install!

iM: EP3 Uncovered

Been staring at the car chilling in the corner all covered up for the past 5 months and figured since spring is just around the corner I’d drag it out and take a peak.

Been watching the weather forecast and it looks like next week or two is going to suck which gives me plenty of time to put some work in on it before it’s back on the road.
