What a wild weekend!
First off – huge thank you to every single fan who reached out, sent videos, and checked in on us. The love and concern mean more than you know. 🙏

Cromwell (our driver) is perfectly fine – thank God nobody was hurt. The Brevis did something truly epic on that final pull: it left a tuned BMW M5 xDrive by bus lengths, exited at insane speed… and then celebrated by lifting both heads and pushing coolant out the exhaust on decel. 😅

Looks like holding the transbrake a little too long on the line might have started the trouble. But honestly? What a run. No timeslip, no exit speed number – just pure crowd-fueled glory. We’re just glad we left you all smiling.

Now for the real talk: will the Brevis come back? We honestly don’t know yet. Time will tell. But whether this was a farewell or a “see you later” – thank you for being part of the ride.

Keep those fan videos coming and tag us.

Stay tuned. And stay awesome. 🐉💨

😆25 Years Old. 11.93 Seconds. 212 KPH. 🇯🇵💨

They said it was just an old luxury barge. They were wrong.

Meet the Toyota Brevis. A 25-year-old Japanese gentleman that just discovered its evil twin. This car has transformed into something it was never designed to be: a 11-second monster.

The acceleration is violent, yet silky smooth. The speed is mind-dizzying. The shifts are aggressive, but the car is happy.

This is what happens when experience meets innovation. A massive shoutout to the grinders, and the dreamers at The DPF Team for giving this old madhara its chance at glory.

Perfection cannot be rushed. For just over a year, our team undertook a mutinous pursuit of excellence, resulting in this: 1 of only 3 of its kind in Zimbabwe.

This isn't just a modified Toyota Altezza; it's a statement of artistry. We drew inspiration from nature's most pleasing palette—a deep, lush green body accented by peeping gold. From the intercooler to the wheels, these are more than colors; they're a feeling.

At its heart lies the super-rare, fully refreshed 1JZ-GTE engine—a masterpiece in itself. With meticulous modifications, it now delivers a symphony of 300hp through an R154 manual transmission. Every component was chosen for exceptional quality, from the Uprated Hybrid Turbo to the 3" Stainless Exhaust, ensuring this beast is as capable as it is beautiful.

We built it to share the exhilarating experience of owning a rare 1jz Altezza. The project is complete, and the keys are now available for the discerning enthusiast who understands that true quality is a rare find.

This unique masterpiece is offered for sale. Call us to enquire

Key Highlights:
• Fully Refreshed 1JZ-GTE Engine (300HP)
• Bulletproof R154 Manual Transmission
• Uprated Hybrid Turbo & 3" Stainless Exhaust System
• Mishimoto M-Line Gold Intercooler (Rated 600HP)
• 17" Lenso Wheels w/ New Firestone Tires
• Walbro 255LPH Fuel Pump & Ramair Foam Intake

A lifetime of exclusivity.

📌📍FROM TOW-TRUCK REJECT TO ROAD ROCKET!

This 2019 BMW 523d came to us on the back of a truck, completely dead thanks to a crippling AdBlue malfunction. ❌

But we didn't just get it started... we gave it a new lease on life! 💥

After solving the complex AdBlue issue, we put it on the dyno and unleashed its hidden potential.

The Results?
⬆️ Horsepower: 174HP ➡️ 235HP (+61HP!)
⬆️ Torque: 322Nm ➡️ 459Nm (+137Nm!)

We transformed it from a stranded sedan into a powerful, responsive machine. This is the perfect example of how we go beyond just fixes to deliver genuine performance.

From Broken Dreams to Masterpiece. 🛠️✨

When this BMW E30 with a Toyota 1JZ-GTE swap arrived at our shop, it was making strange noises and wouldn't run right. We uncovered a shocking list of failures: broken pistons, a warped head from overheating, crippling sludge, and a host of electrical gremlins.

We didn't just tune it—we completely resurrected it. Watch the full journey from a seized-up scrap candidate to a roaring, tuner legend. In this video:

The complete engine rebuild from the bottom up

Dyno tuning to a safe and powerful level

The implementation of professional features like Launch Control and Rolling Anti-Lag

The final delivery to one very happy customer

This project proves that no project is too far gone with the right expertise and dedication.

The laughing stops now. 🚗💨

They said the Mark X was slow. They said it was just a "normal" car. We said, "Watch this."

This project is a perfect example of what we're passionate about: unleashing true performance.

🚨 PERSONAL BEST ALERT! 🚨

Stoked beyond words right now! Yesterday, our trusty Toyota Brevis absolutely SENT IT down the quarter mile, clocking a blistering 12.18 seconds! 😤💨

What makes this even sweeter?
✅ Unprepped surface: No fancy track prep, just raw performance!
✅ Massive Improvement: Smashed last year's best of 12.58s! That's a HUGE jump!
✅ Turbo Upgrade Paying Off: Our recent turbo work is clearly doing its job!
✅ RWD Hustle: And it did this all on rear-wheel drive! Getting that power down was no small feat!

Huge credit to the team for the relentless effort and tuning magic. Turning this RWD sedan into a proper weapon takes serious dedication! 🔧⚙️

But... we're not done yet. 👀
The real target? The 11s. And we know exactly how we're getting there. The final piece of the puzzle is almost here: the 8HP70 transmission swap. Once that beast is bolted in, we're confident those 11-second slips are coming home EASY. 🏁💪🏻

The journey continues! Onwards and downwards (in ET!) 💯
