Phet's Nissan Teana

View fullsize

We are excited to bring you this unique Nissan 2010 Teana V6 2.5 CC all the way from Thailand! Phet Chansanroj began this original build at the beginning of the year and has invested a large amount of time into the final product.

Phet originally purchased this car as a family car for him, his wife, and his daughter. Phet had limited time to work on the Teanna, so he dedicated every Friday night to improving and building the car, which proved to be quite an obstacle. When one part did not work or fit/look right, he would have to wait until the following week to continue working on the Teana. 

Phet researched the internet for ideas and inspiration, but nothing could separate him from his idea that "fitment" meant to fit the wheels with the stock fender. Although he can admire the VIP style, Phet's style was more of a retro style - exhaust pipe, oil cooler, lip kissing the fender, and the angle of the wheels. Phet was determined to build a unique ride that would catch eyes all across the world.

Phet fell in love with the stance of the car so much that he bagged the Teana so that his wife could drive a bit easier and he would still have the low he loved. Phet is not finished yet and can't wait to finish more work on the car, keeping it clean and looking like a beast.

Because Race Car.

Get ready to switch your gears and rev your engines! This is one for the books!

Ron Marchini all the way from Clearwater, FL has been working on this one-of-a-kind 2000 Acura NSX for two years. His main focus was to build a functional car that he could take to the tracks to compete with newer sportscars, all while maintaining show quality.

When Ron originally purchased the car in Rhode Island, the Comptech supercharger already installed made one unforgettable ride back to Florida. Ron added CCW Classics, worked on improving the horsepower, Brembo brakes, and Comptech suspension; recent upgrades include a new front lip from Shine. Ron also plans to get a TypeR hood to boost the downforce and widen the front fenders. Ron Marchini spent a lot of time, money, and effort as he pushed to get the results he was looking for. His most used site for parts during this build was Science of Speed. And, with an exquisite outcome like this, it's no wonder Ron doesn't intend on building anything else in the near future.

Dream Car and Why?: "The LFA, because I think it represents the best car that Japan has to offer...just like in 1991 when the NSX was released."

Less is More.

Photography: StanceMiami Written: Krystal Gonzalez

If you have ever envisioned yourself owning a Lexus, this is a car that will show you how it's done. Kevin Josephs from West Palm Beach brings us this 2011 Lexus IS250 F-Sport. When you see this car you will truly admire the fact that less is more.

Having a passion for cars since he was young, Josephs purchased his first car at 16. This is where the extensive list started.

"My first few cars were civics and then I moved on to BMW, Nissan, Acura and now Lexus. This being my 11th car, I bought the F-sport with the intention to keep it factory, maybe just a mild drop since it already came with some pretty nice oem wheels."

Like anyone else, Josephs began modding and within a year and a half, his IS250 was looking flawless.

"I love my car and wouldn't have it any other way. I like to keep my car clean and simple and don't want to over do it."

 Kevin also states that his future plans would include an Invidia mid pipe and eventually upgrade to a Lexus oem bbk.

We are most certainly not complaining with how this car is looking now, yet we'll be anxiously waiting to see the future mods completed. Enjoy this beautiful and classy Lex we had the opportunity to feature!

Modifications:

• Vossen CV7 wheels, 20x9 20x10.5
• Akata wheel spacers
• Tires; 225/30/20 & 255/30/20
• Megan Racing coilovers
• F-Sport intake
• Greddy Spectrum Elite exhaust
• Oem gfx sides
• Oem gfx rear lip,
• Jdm roof spoiler,
• JLC led interior lighting,
• 6000k HID low beams and fogs.

Shout Outs:

How long did it take you to build your ride

? 1.5 years

Dream Car and why?

Porsche Panamera Turbo, performance and style at its best.

What was your inspiration for this build?

Building a daily driver that turns heads and still functional, staying clean and simple is why my friends call me SimpleKev

And future builds you have in mind? I really like the scion fr-s and the Fiat 500, but maybe after the wedding :)
