Busted knuckles. Midnight grinds. Machines with soul.

5lug Hondas just got a major upgrade.

If anyone is interested, I've figured out how to adapt the FK8 Brembo calipers onto most of the Accord, TSX, and other 5 bolt cars.
The exceptions are the RSX and 8th and 9th Gen Civic due to the way the spindles are cast.
14" rotors require 18 inch or larger wheels with lots of spokes clearance.

Hoping it’s a Honda/Acura.

A quiet Monday at work, a quick coffee, and then a shoot with an old friend’s freshly redone Corvette. These are the kinds of moments I forgot how much I missed—just slowing things down and appreciating how far a build’s come.

We first shot this car almost 8 years ago, and seeing it now with the fresh paint, side pipes, and new stance felt like flipping to the next chapter in a book we started a long time ago. That’s the stuff I live for.

This was the first real shoot I’ve done in a while that wasn’t just for work or content or deadlines—it was just for the love of the machine, and I want more of that this year. More cars, more friends, more documenting the moments that matter.

I’ll be posting more from this set soon. And yeah… I’m looking forward to being behind the camera a lot more in 2025 and beyond.

Appreciate everyone who’s still riding with me.

Going through my old stack of mags. Who else remembers the hype of seeing local guys getting published in the big magazines back in the late 2000s early 2010s?
Who else wants to see their car in print?

Series 01. Monday.
The last time I shot this car, it still had the stock drivetrain and Black Paint.
Now?
LS swapped. Fresh color. Winning awards.

Stay tuned.
