The S2000 was ‘the Honda of all Hondas’ in Matt Jensen's opinion. The S2000 drove like no other, so pure-to-concept, and it's so great in so many aspects. The funny thing is, Matt Jensen couldn’t...

Justin Chappelle was at the bar with his buddy BS’ing around with the idea of swapping a turbo-diesel engine into a regular 80s/90s square-bodied truck... Typical car guy bar talk. Anything...
This is the drift taxi Subaru Forester that you may have seen around Can-Jam Motorsports. And there are a lot of rad reasons why rad people might end up with a rad car like this Subaru Forester...
Widebody BMW M2... When I first got into this car-building underworld, I did it for the kickass & badass cars. Pretty simple formula right? But what I didn’t understand at the time, is that...
My latest midnight Marketplace score was this set of old OEM running boards off a later 92-96 OBS F150. Here they are, in all their glory... installed, but unpainted on my lowered bricknose F150....
The time to buy a Porsche 944 is now… If you ever wanted a Porsche 944, or if you think you may want one in the future… my gut tells me the time to start looking is now. Why I’m an expert… I’m...
Who is Steer Smarts? Steer Smarts makes steering solutions for Jeeps. Major solutions. Overkill solutions… if there was such a thing… which there’s not. In a nutshell, Steer Smarts uses Ford...
The Tacoma TRD Offroad 4x4 is as sure as the sunrise... We all know & love ‘em. Though the prices on the Toyota Tacoma TRD Offroad 4x4 seems to tick-up with every sunrise too! The rent is too...
The Toyota Camry TRD is a head-turner… no 2 ways about it. Here’s why: Expectation vs reality. With the new Supra for example, our expectations (and hopes) were really high. The Supra has dream-car...
Style / Attitude Bottom line: The TB Performance crash bar for the Ford Fiesta ST looks absolutely hard as nails. Mods like this are why you want a car like this. Hot hatches are never supposed to...
We just kind of ramble about the early days of S3 Magazine... and how we tripped into owning a mag. https://youtu.be/Njn8FImc6FU

Coming off the Holley Ford Fest buzz… I realized I learned a little something from my fellow Ford bros this weekend. That is: Live in the moment. Truly BE where your feet are. Stop trying to live on/for social media. And… learn to rock the sh!t out of a mullet. It’s...
In this car community, we’re all students, and we’re all teachers... simultaneously. There’s no 1 role here. It doesn’t matter your age. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been doing it. Inspiration comes from the...
Style / Attitude Bottom line: The TB Performance crash bar for the Ford Fiesta ST looks absolutely hard as nails. Mods like this are why you want a car like this. Hot hatches are never supposed to be tasteful, subtle, or grown up. It's not in their genetic code. Nope,...
There ain’t much that separates Hot-rodders from Honda Boys… other than the decade. Alex McGinnis is a longbeard type of guy from Kentucky. He lives in Louisville… and he’s from Louisville. Tennessee whiskey & Kentucky bourbon. This is bootlegger country. And this...
The Ford Focus ST has the potential for big power gains with (relatively just a few) aftermarket mods & tuning. But the flip-side of that deal, is added stress & strain on the chassis. TB Performance chassis bracing compensates for deflection in the FoST...

Make Something that Makes Something... Check out this BMW E30 M3 with an M55 swap. I wish that, going into 2020, we had more people who set out to inspire… and less people who signed-up to influence. To influence is a self-serving interest… building one’s own ego...
BattleBorn Blanket Statement: When any of us get our grubby hands on a new car project, we always have ‘that Vision' for it. The Vision is the motivator - 100%. It’s our A.D.D. It’s what caused us to lust after the car, and ultimately pull the damn trigger. The...
