Wekfest San Francisco 2012- (Part 3 of 6)

Brad Sillars of thephotomotive.com is a guy you really want on your side at one of these trips. He may not provide friendship, loyalty, or good conversation- but he does have a discount via his day gig at most hotels in the continental USA. With that said, he was the first person I asked to accompany me to Wekfest (after I secured the BRO’s). Anyways, we bring you part 3:

Sunny Liang’s 1973 Datsun 240Z is definitely a favorite of the show.

Really great stance and a no-compromise fitment.

S30’s and Work Equip 03s= a match made in heaven.

The infamous e61 widebody wagon that everyone seemed to have been talking about from SEMA. The flat/satin red paint job looked even
better in person, along with an aggressive set of 20×10.5 and 20×11.5 wheels.

Another shot of the slammed 964 on some classic BBS RS wheels.

A nice 997 reppin Kinesis wheels.

Advan owners seem to stick together.

Pretty nice e55. Nothing crazy about it other then perfect fitment and stance.

The endless crew rolling in together lead by Mike’s NSX, follwed by a nice s2k, and bagged Is350.

Endless repped well at Wekfest. Here is another bagged VIP GS they brought to the show.

Pretty wild ISF in a menacing satin black finish.

Rising Sun Motorsports NA1 NSX.

I’m loving the massive Voltex wing and wheel fitment. Looks like a set of classic Kinesis k59 wheels in an 18/18 setup.

Another shot of this 997 track beast.

Dope widebody FD on HRE’s.

nom nom nom

More wagon love. If you’re gonna rock TE’s, do it concave!

Allen is just happy he didn’t have to wait 5 hours to get into the show.

Another one of my top 5 cars from Wekfest. I can’t tell from this angle, but the Benz looks like it’s on classic Work Equips.

Import Powerhouse s14

Love this crowd shot that also shows the roll-in and the classic San Francisco back drop.

Integra with that classic 90’s-style green paint job.

Another r35 GTR at the event.

If you remember that story out of New York/Queens a few years ago, then you’ll appreciate this license plate.

Pat from Wagon Lifestyle and some creepy dude behind him.

Another aggressive s2k.

One of the nicest z32’s I’ve seen in awhile. Be on the lookout for a full shoot of this car from Brad.

That concludes Part 3… look out for Part 4 this weekend!

Wekfest Coverage – Stance

No doubt the “stance scene” has emerged as a staple in today’s car culture. However, not everyone can pull this off as effortlessly as John Zhang… aka JZ… aka 1013mm. Below is a shot which we feel exemplifies this crazy new movement. Bravo JZ, Bravo. Part 3 later tonight…

Wekfest San Francisco 2012- (Part 2 of 6)

A few days since Wekfest SF ended, and finally recovering! Here is part 2 of a TON of pics I still have to go through. I haven’t even touched the pics by the other JDMC photogs, hence the reason I made space for 6 parts (just an estimate). Let’s now get to the pics…..

Not only is this one of the few Lexus CT 200h’s I’ve seen in person, but definitely the first I’ve seen with modifications. Nice drop and wheels
sets off this car well. Kinda has a Mazda 3 vibe.

Originally I thought there was about 5,000 people or so at Wekfest, now I’ve heard there was somewhere between 10-15k if you can believe
that! What better place to advertise your car for sale?

Classic Datsun 510. There were a few of these at Wekfest. Not sure how I feel though about this two-tone look and wheel sizing….

Is it too late to say “BECAUSE RACE CAR?”

Just your standard sweet civic engine bay. Wish we had more of these in Chicago.

Sure it’s a sweet Corolla, but not fast enough to beat this bike.

Here are a bunch of crowd shots that Ray took and I stitched. These were all taken around 1 or 2pm. RIDICULOUS. If I was Weksos, I would
just shot down Weksos Industries and do one show a year. haha

Pretty nice slammed G35 rocking some semi-classic Volk GT-S wheels.

Slammed and rocking Volk GT7’s. I’m gonna assume this G and the blue one above are both bagged.

VIP-styled GS on Works and Z on BBS LM’s.

Cristian or his bro from Canibeat doing a weather report. Someone tell me how to tell them apart! I forget the
name of the dude behind him, but I call him “model guy.”

Another sweet Lotus, this one on some nicely polished CCW’s.

You know, the Maxima doesn’t get much love anymore these days. This Junction Produce VIP build is actually pretty nice. This platform
definitely needs more attention.

Classic mini pulling in @ roll-in. Built when these things were truly mini.

Here’s a shot that Young took of one of the model’s at wekfest. He used some crazy light diffuser that worked pretty well here.

Pretty smooth NSX rocking Volk TE-37’s and the NSX-R look.

R33 Skyline on Prodrive GC-07C.

That Ray is a sneaky bastard. Here is a sniper shot he took of me and Mike.

Another nice subi on TE37 SL’s with Voltex aero.

Super clean TSX. That’s it for today, more pics tomorrow!

Dual NSX Shoot Teaser

Here is a shoot of two NSX’s I shot in the bay area. I teamed up with Mike Maravilla for this shoot and we should have the full feature posted within a few weeks. I was excited to work on this set, so here is one for now. Click on the picture for the higher res photo. We’ll be back to Wekfest coverage tomorrow! Don’t forget to check out the video teaser posted below!
