**Ultimates JDM'FEST 09 WRAP UP**


Okay so the day really started to kick at about 11am with a big influx of cars arriving from then on.


The Show 'n' Shine had all sorts of JDM metal from DR30's to wide body Evo's and a few hard core Honda's thrown in for good measure. With such a mix of cars and different styling cues it was any one's guess who the Peoples Choice trophy was going home with. after a voting stopped it was a Blue/Green Glitter S14 that took it out.


The FWD class only had four competitors and for a while it looked like a very tasty 147fwkw Accord Euro R was going to have the trophy on his mantel, but Wookie in a Black V6 Magna fitted with a supercharger layed down the impressive 187fwkw figure to take it out.


AWD always looked like going home with a Evo owner, it was just a matter of which one, after a strong 280awkw's from a hot little Evo IV, Chris stepped up and threw down the massive 357awkw's to win the class.


And Finally Nathan in his big white Supra stepped up and put the hammer down on the day taking out the Dyno Dominator and RWD class win with a mammoth 398rwkw's. after having to wait all day to see if anyone was going to take his crown, it came down to a very evil looking 180sx running a 2JZ (in a very similar configuration to Nathan's Beast) to post up the challenge, but for whatever reason it couldn't pip the Supra, so Nathan left with a arm full of trophies and a big smile after his mission completed.


So get tuning cause next year is already set to be big!

Project: V8 HOTLINE Update


With the car physically on it's way down from Mad Hatter Customs in Sydney this morning, I thought I'd share a sneak peak of the HOTLINE as it came out of the spray booth.


You will be able to inspect the work so far, at JDM'FEST where it will be on display, and once things settle down after this weekend's mad panic to get everything sorted. we can get cracking on reassembly, and then maybe project ATE SIX will get the dust blown off her for some serious late night sessions.
see, there really is no rest for the wicked!
