I love interviews! I find that they allow me to stop everything I’m doing for a sec and step outside of myself and reflect on where I’m at at this point in time.
Here’s an interview I did on Respawn Ninja about Zen and the Need for Speed x Zen Garage S15 Build.

First stop, Black Betty for the best coffee in Kingsford!
Then to fit tyres onto our rims.
Wheels are the same width all round, so in this pic you can really see the difference between a stretched 235 and a fat 255.
FAT RUBBER FTW! Much thanks to Toyo Tyres Australia for the R1R’s going on our S15 build. The wheels are the same size all round so we’ve gone for a staggered set of tyres. 235’s at the front and 255’s at the rear. The rears look damn fat! So fat that the tyres stick out just past the rim’s face. Perfecto! The front’s were a bit of a stretch, but we’re thinking this might not be a bad thing as 9.5 wide rims are pretty wide for the front.
Video by Selectnine dropping soon!
My childhood is constantly being re-awakened. All my fave comic books are now movies. The skate companies have re-issued skate decks from the 90’s and now this; Star Wars Battlefront. The most authentic, real deal Star Wars game ever made to date.
A few weeks ago I had EA Games over at my place to shoot the 2nd video of the Need For Speed x Zen Garage S15 Build. The guys noticed that I had Star Wars stuff all over my place, and we got talking about Battlefront, a few days later a T-Shirt and a copy of the game was in my mailbox!
My little review is up on Zen Blog: http://www.zengarage.com.au/2015/11/star-wars-battlefront-review/
Welcome to week 2 of Need For Speed – Crew Create. We did wheels last week (the TE37SL”s won the vote!), and this week we’re onto Body Kits!
We got to partner up with surfboard designer Hayden Cox of Hayden Shapes and together, Hayden and I find out that wings and fins share a lot more in common than you might think!
Be sure to watch the video above for all the details!

The Need for Speed x Zen Garage S15 Build Project hasn’t officially kicked off yet (kicks off next week!) but I’ve already got a few people to thank!
The budget is tight, timeframe is damn short too (4 weeks!), but the support is there and I’ve been overwhelmed by how many local businesses want in to help out on this build!
Many thanks to Ved at Selectnine for being my wingman on this project. To Pete at Hypertune for stopping all work and letting us film in their amazing workshop. To Zi, Yonas, David, Adam and Kiet at JDMyard for all the advice and parts, to Chris for staying up late after hours to work on the car at Heasman Steering, to Budi at Autotechnik Tuning for wheels, to Leo at JDM Concept for parts, to Toyo Tyres for tyres and to Chern at RWB Australia for wheels too.
Cant wait to get started!!!
It’s time to get to work!!!
Picked up a couple of PS4’s and 2 copies of Need for Speed yesterday. We’re on it, winning as much cash and rep points as we can in order to buy the S15 in the game, then unlock all the body kits for our NFS x ZEN S15 project.
This is actually work. We’re still pinching ourselves!!!
