Me? Writing for MOTOR MAG?! No way!

Posted on 18 September, 2013 by Justin Fox

Be sure to pick up a copy of the all new MOTOR MAGAZINE at your local newsagent now. Look out for an article on a widebody supercharged M3 written by yours truly. I’m so chuffed to be writing for MOTOR, a magazine which I respect so much!

Photos above my Matthew Everingham.

PS: MOTOR Magazine is also available at Zen Garage: http://zengarage.com.au/shop

Zen Stand.

Spent the day running the Zen Stand at Showcased 2013 yesterday at Australian Technology Park. Cars on show were next level (the venue itself is next level!). Whilst I did rattle off some shots of my fave cars there… I’ll leave it up to the community to cover the event.

Nasho Run

Posted on 2 September, 2013 by Justin Fox

Went for a Nasho Run today with Dave and Chris. Perfect weather so I took the MX-5 out, top down too of-course (I’m getting into it?!).

MX-5 is so much fun out there. Was great to see (and hear!) the FD and GT-R out there as well. Awesome stuff.

Runabout Mirrors

Posted on 27 August, 2013 by Justin Fox

Small update, scored a nice set of used M2 Runabout Mirrors. I’ve always liked these, but I quite like NA8 power mirrors both in looks and function. When these came up for sale a fair bit cheaper than a new set I couldn’t resist. Installation was easy and fun. They’re lovely, but I now can’t see shit!

Door cards had to come off so I could unplug the OEM power mirrors. Easy done once you remove the door handles and door pulls. Pioneer speakers noted.
