C-One’d Yaris from Florida

After attending a few Sibling Rivalry shows in Jacksonville, FL, I kept seeing this Yaris pop up and couldn’t take my eyes off of it.  It is sporting a full C-One body kit from Japan along with many other accessories in the engine bay from C-One such as strut bar and oil cap.

Very seldom do you see a US tuned Yaris like this, especially in Florida!  The tail lights you see are JDM spec Vitz RS.

The interior is filled out nicely with a roll cage and matching Bride seats.  This is a must have for a small car like this to whip around the corners.

The wheels are C-One spec Wed Sports SA-70 in 17×7.

The engine was modestly tuned with bolt on mods.  This car is more about the handling aspect than straight line speed.

Thanks to UrbanRacer for the pictures and Kami Speed for building this car!

two Hawaiian boxes

Our friends at ForjWorks just did a photoshoot of a couple first gen xB’s equipped with their 5 degree and 5.5 degree camber kits.  The Maroon xB is using the -5 degree kit, and the black one is using the -5.5 kit.  They are both great examples of VIP style, with the low stance and high end wheels.  Check out more pics below!

Prius OG tuning

Thanks to Gary who sent in these pics of his Japanese-style inspired Prius.  You don’t see too many of the old Prius modified, and Gary looks like he is on the way to big things!  He is currently searching for a JDM front lip/bumper to set off the front.

As with most cars, the choice of wheels makes all the difference.  He went with Work RSZ-R wheels, a classic wheel that is not often applied to the hybrid market. It is also very lightweight to keep the Prius’ gas mileage high.

Nissan March Cup :: Japan

This is the Nissan March, basically their equivalent of a Toyota Yaris.  Small, nimble, and light makes for a fun track car, especially when you are competing in a one-make race!  We were able to witness one of these races prior to watching a Super Taikyu race in Suzuka years ago. They weren’t exactly the fastest comparing to larger races, but it is more about the drivers’ skill in this race.  It is also a good gateway for drivers to make their name known in the racing world.

Race Queen!
