The Daily Werks Crew: Tuesday Night Meet at Sears


So if you've ever passed by Sears Hardware on a Tuesday night near Oxford Valley Mall, you've probably wondered what all of those kids were doing, right?  Well, being part of that scene for quite a while now, I decided to take some pics of a meet just to show you.


For my boys and me it's always a tradition to go to Wings To Go for some chicken or some ish.  We love hanging out and talking cars or whatever the hell is on our mind before we head out to chill at the meets.


Usually you'll see my boy Edd of The Daily Werks Crew taking pictures.  He's pretty handy with his camera, and he doesn't even use a DSLR like most local photographers.  Check out Tyler's Miata (look up one)!!


Lots of Hondas and Acuras always show up to the meets.  Vdubs are welcome too!  Check out Mike's white Teggy and Blaine's black one.



Matt's Civic repping a couple of decals and an RIP Eddie Brodecki sticker.  Rest in peace DC5 buddy...


My boy Paul showed up with a new Civic on deck as well.  He says that he just ordered fenders to have them fixed and that he's getting curb rash on his wheels taken care of as well.  He owned a pretty clean Chevy S10 before this so my hopes are up for Paul!


And if you're rocking a camera and a strap at these meets, be sure to bring a tripod as well-- being ready to shoot at any time.  You could be asked to snap pics at any moment.  So, when these guys asked me to take a couple of pictures of their heavy duty trucks, I decided "why the hell not."


The Chevy flatbed you see above has a chrome differential casing and is in pretty good condition.  Wonder if this kid uses this as a work truck...who am I kidding, he's got to...


We then lined the trucks up and got some shots after deciding that we wanted pictures of these rear-wheel drive beasts.  Don't worry, you'll see the other one I'm talking about too.


'MURICA.


The other person who asked me to shoot his truck was driving a Ford Turbo-Diesel Powerstroke with a John Deer, Green paint job.  When asked for his buying price, he said he only paid $3500.  Now I know why these boys are driving trucks!  Lots of torque and power for a little price...not to mention they're reliable.


As always, all good things must come to an end guys.  That being said...


...I'm signing out.  Lexi.Laron, represent.

N-Spire Performance and The Daily Werks Crew Shoot


So whatsup, Y'ALL?!  Welcome to another non-chalant and very relaxed addition to MY SITE, NOT YOURS.  Lexi.Laron is back homies and don't get it twisted.  We're comin' correct this time with more photo shoots and collaboration with local auto enthusiast group The Daily Werks Crew.  So let's bang it out, shall we?

It was a quaint Sunday when my boy Edd of The Daily Werks Crew hit me up for a quick breakfast at Cracker Barrel in Bensalem, Pennsylvania.  Over some hot pancakes, eggs, sausage, and even grits, Edd told me about a shoot he arranged with one of our friends, Josh who is a co-owner of a great aftermarket auto parts dealer known as N-Spire Performance.  Seriously, these guys sold me an ACT Prolite Flywheel, heavy duty pressure plate, and stage 2 clutch for a great price.

N-Spire Performance's legit business card 

ACT Clutch and Throwout Bearing for the RSX!

But as we all know, any good shop has some pretty sexy demo cars-- and being that N-Spire is just starting out, I'd say they're doing pretty well for themselves!  Bringing a line-up of cars to this shoot, I'd like to give a shout out to N-Spire for doin' their thang.

Starting out the night, the first thing I rolled up on was this FC3S, 10th Anniversary Mazda RX-7.  This car comes turbocharged from the factory with special 10th Anniversary real leather interior, improved sound system, and other fancy amenities.

Take a look at the GReddy intercooler behind the bumper.  The car is also sporting a GReddy Type-RS BOV and excess GReddy turbo piping.  The engine was rebuilt and was cleaned up with blue and silver engine paint on the block.  Ryan says he has more in mind for the car in the future.

From the rear, this car is nothing ordinary.  Although it's rocking a stock exterior with stock body panels and badges, nearly everything that's not gaudy is sprayed white.  I find it sexy thank you very much!


Stockies FTW or FTL?  I think the former is more appropriate.  ;)


Full rear shot of this bad boy taken by yours truly (along with a couple of other of these).


Next, in N-Spire's pocket is this bad boy...



Sporting a set of Rotas, yes I said it, F-ing Rotas, this RX-7 is nothing short of sexy...even with Rotas!!!!  (Just kidding)


Close-up.


And just to weaken the knees, I decided to feature this sexy-ass side shot taken courtesy of ya' boy, Edd.


Goin' H.A.M. with the full line-up, not just a couple of cars, N-Spire made us SWEAT.


Note that there was not only another two cars, but just one more of the cars was a rotary, for safe measure that there were plenty of triangular ...engine ...rotors(?) to go around.


But, ahh, and we can't forget the Honda S2000 owned by Josh.


Stacked with a set of Recaros, custom-made amber markers, Shine full-carbon diffuser, Tein S-Tech Lowering Springs, Eibach Chassis Bracing, and Invidia Exhaust, this is one sexy S2K.


Custom-made amber markers by N-Spire.


Shine full-carbon diffuser, and that's a wrap.


At the end of the night, Josh took me for a ride in his S2K.  Although there was nothing crazy done to it, and believe me, he plans on doing A LOT more, it was my first time in an S2000, and boy did it surprise me.  After riding in the parking lot like a quiet lady, he put the pedal to the metal and made that baby scream.  Just how I like it.  ;)

Until next time, hit stay tuned for Lexi.Laron's next feature.  Coming to a computer near you.

Photoshoot: Sneak Peak

Hey guys!  So last night, me and my boys from The Daily Werks Crew went over to Franklin Mills with Philly Subarus and took some pictures of N-Spire Performance's whips.  Here's a sneak preview of one of their cars-- an FD3S RX-7.


Stay tuned for more photos!  And be safe, from Lexi.Laron to you.
