PARKIN’ LOT LAPIN

LozZz — Mon, 19 Nov 2012 23:57:35 +0000

While not an entrant, I loved this Suzuki Lapin that was in the parking lot at Slammed Society Japan 2012. I also spotted it in the parking lot at Hellaflush at FSW last year, but it had a CF hood. Plain rusty hoods are done to death, but I love the giraffe-like pattern this has going on in the corner (and on the back window for those paying attention)

WRECKIN’ MEET VOL.1 (1/3)

LozZz — Mon, 05 Nov 2012 14:01:22 +0000

On Saturday I took the long drive up to Toyama for the inaugural Wreckin’ Meet. There was a great turn out, with quite a few well known cars turning up. It was a long drive for most people, but it didn’t stop anyone with some cars coming from as far as Hiroshima!

You’d generally expect the best cars to be from the bigger cities, but I found the most impressive cars of the day to be the local cars from Neu Flava and the Lowballers Japan chapter. I couldn’t even pic a favorite of the bunch as most of their cars are amazing.

Unfortunately because of the rain I ended up taking my pics with my iPhone (and holding my umbrella in the other hand lol). This also explains why a lot of people are camped out or sleeping in their cars hahaha. So yeah, sorry for the pic quality. The pics are just straight from my phone with a watermark slapped on.

Here’s the rest of the pics from Fuji 86 Style

FUJI 86 STYLE 2012 (1/2)

LozZz — Thu, 04 Oct 2012 10:03:39 +0000

Here’s some pics from this year’s Fuji 86 Style, which was an event for AE86s and the new Toyota 86 (or GT/FT86 or whatever you wanna call it).

I don’t really like the pics as it was pretty much a rush job while checking out the cars. There were some great cars in attendance, but to be honest I found it did get a little boring seeing so many new 86s in stock (or close to stock) form. Hopefully next year there are a few more modded cars. I broke up the pics into two posts so you don’t get slammed with too many in one hit. The rest will be up tomorrow.

SOMETHING DIFFERENT!

This 86 is from the Fuji 86 Style day, which was held at Fuji Speedway in August.

I didn’t touch it to check, but it certainly looked like skateboard grip tape vinyl wrap. I’d never seen it before, and haven’t seen it since for that matter!

A closer look

It wasn’t just the one car, I found it again on this AE86

Has anyone seen on other cars?

REMINDER: 21ST ANNUAL YOKOHAMA HOT ROD CUSTOM SHOW 2012 – DEC 2ND

LozZz — Mon, 01 Oct 2012 21:00:57 +0000

I’m mainly posting this as a reminder to myself, but also to anyone else who’s in Japan and likes this kinda stuff. The big Yokohama hot rod show, which is put together by Mooneyes is coming up in just two short months. I’ve missed this the last few years because of work or other commitments but I really hope to make it out there this year.

The lowrider in the lozzz.com banner is from a local shop (very local – it’s less than a kilometer away) and won the prize for best paint back in 2010. The painter is also from Yamanashi and runs Lifestyle Kustoms, which puts out incredible work.
