Best known for their luxury car body kits, Wald International released some concept creative of their new Nissan GTR body kit. Historically speaking Wald’s designs are sometimes questionable but based on what I see here it looks like the GTR is going to be a winner.

The kit which consists of front bumper fascia, lower rear bumper fascia with integrated diffuser, side skirts, upper rear wing extension , lower lip spoiler on the deck lid (carbon fiber none the less) along with rear wheel arch flairs. › Continue reading

Google Chrome - Boost your browser

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008 | General | 1 Comment

Ok, I know this has nothing to do with cars or drifting or anything else, but we all use the Internet (otherwise why are you reading this?) and this is sort of a big deal.

On September 2, Google announced the release of it’s Open Source, platform independent (beta version only available for Windows XP-Vista for now) web browser Google Chrome.

The next chapter in The Fast And the Furious series will grace the big screen next summer. This installment features the return of Paul Walker and Vin Diesel (as well as the hotties from the first movie, Michelle Rodriguez and Jordana Brewster).

Titles simple “Fast and Furious”, the movie reunites Dominic “I Live my life a quarter mile at a time” Toretto and Brian “I need more NOS” O’Conner as they try and bring down a drug lord through street racing. It’s too early to predict how this movie will turn out, but the trailer does seem interesting.

The official site claims a Summer 2009 release, but sources nail it down for June 5th 2009.

Check out the hot new teaser trailer: › Continue reading
