I was sitting on the pavement, awaiting my pick up for my latest shoot. The pick up being an FC3S RX-7, but not just any FC3S RX-7 – The Hat’s FC3S RX-7… When I heard I was being moved by my work to Aberdeen I instantly knew I’d be out shooting some pictures of this […]

An R32 With A Difference…

JZX110 Mark II Build – Part 1 – Welding and Bashment
My old JZX100 Chaser was one of my favourite Japanese road cars I’ve owned, and I’ve always had a bit of an itch to scratch since getting rid of it some years ago. JZX110’s were always a little out of my league pricewise as they look shit as standard in my opinion, and modified ones […]

The Outsiders crew met and made friends with some great people during our time in Japan, and one of those people is Kazumasa Sekido. We met him at Kids Heart, which is where he works, and Phil even got to drive with him later on in the trip. Sekido got introduced to drifting when he […]

With the rise of social media thanks to the likes of Facebook and thousands of car blogs it’s now easier than ever to find out what’s going on in drifting all over the world. I remember when trying to find photos of drift teams and cars out in Japan took a lot of effort searching […]
