Fairly Low Lady

While on my visit in California in the United States of America, I stumbled across a static Nissan 350Z. The Nissan 350Z (known as the Nissan Fairlady Z Z33 in Japan) is a two seat sports car that was manufactured by Nissan from 2003 to 2009 and marks the fifth generation. The 350z went into production in late 2002 and debuted as a 2003 model. 

Crew Breakfast run to Franschoek Motor Museum

The day has finally come for us to go on a crew breakfast run. What better way to do it was going to the Franschoek Motor Museum. Now our breakfast run was not only enjoyable, but we had a experience and a half which I will share later on. Be sure to go through all the photos as we took some photos afterwards of the crew cars between the nice scenery.

Bagged Mk2 Jetta: A work in Progress

LIKE ALWAYS CLICK ON PICS FOR BETTER QUALITY

When I mention "work in progress" I literally mean it. This car was spray painted September last year, but did not come out to play with the big stance boys at shows yet, as the owner felt it was due for even more upgrades. After the long wait for the air to be fitted which was like 1 day before the shoot, we decided to head of and hookup with the Outlaw Airwurx crew to check the progress on Padre's Mk2 Jetta. 

Capestance: Slamometer II event

CLICK ON PICS FOR BETTER QUALITY

Last year something great started in essence to start getting our scene more up to standards, I mean we look at overseas stance blogs and our cars have only scratched the surface to what they have achieved around the world. Slowly but surely we are getting there. Slamometer part 1 was hosted in an underground parking facility to see who can do the limbo. Praise the lowered, part 2 finally came! 

Best of both Worlds: Keagans B20 Civic

When it comes to the Honda scene here in South Africa, its always hard to be different from the rest. Parts are readily available and relatively easy to come by. The 1st time I met Keagan is when I shot his first civic, which that time was a white New Spec and was rolling static with white steelies. It was featured on State Of Stance's website when I still shot for them. Feature of his old Civic can be found here: http://stateofstance.com/2012/05/11/real-steel-part-3-of-3/

Lifestyle Sundays: Maarten's Honda Family

Before you look any further at these photos, I would really like you to take some time out and read this feature. 

Mark's Volksrod

In the middle 60's one of the first visions of a Volksrod was sketched on a piece of paper. The look was interpreted by taking a Volkswagen beetle and removing the fenders drawing the final concept in capturing the hot rod look. With model T’s and A’s becoming more and more scarce and very expensive, a few Volksrod’s have popped up suddenly.

Static Accordingly

Bagged perhaps? No, this 2005 Honda Accord Type-S of Mujaahid Gallow is rolling on a set of BC Racing BR Series Coilovers.

Live Low Wednesday 07/03: by Casual Society

Well this was my 1^st time out at night with the boys for 2013, was sure as hell worth it.

Static Slave: Fabian's Mk3 Golf

A thing you don’t see a lot down here in South Africa much is Mk3 golf with a Jetta front. I’ve known Fabian for a while now; I met him for the 1^st time when Adrian introduced me to him when I did their Volkedition breakfast run. Volkedition is a crew that consist out of Volkswagens, where most of them reside in the Northern Suburbs, great bunch of guys and they make you feel welcome as if you have known them for years.
