Hello one and all. Arif Jina and Hollie reporting for blog duty. I am sorry it took me longer than the rest of my crew members to get the first post from my fingertips up on this blog. I have a ton of excuses to do so, first off I have no idea how to work one of these things haha…But after goofing around with it a little it seems pretty strait forward. Secondly, I figured that if they all got their posts done, I would have something to sort of model off of, and copy…and lastly…If I was the last one to post up, my entry would be at the top.

I have been in the car scene for a long ass time (can you say ass on a blog??) what being the oldest of the ill.motion crew. Having built many a project car and having watched many a dollar get sucked away by the next mod, or that must have part. I remember reading SCC magazine like it was the bible haha…memorizing specs of parts, calculating the % of hp you would gain from that intake, or B-Pipe…man, those were the days.

Hollie (my 1996 Civic CX Hatch) started out as a lowly silver Automatic…and she has come a long way. Thanks to many friends, and all the shops that have helped with my affliction, my addiction in making an automotive statement. As I truly believe that your car when modded becomes an extension of you and your personality. She currently sits in my garage awaiting the spring season here…but sits so beautifully.

As she sits now she sits with the following…
