Every Sunday out here in the Philippines, the busy streets of Metro Manila tend to be less congested than it normally is, giving sports car and exotic car owners time to enjoy the company of their favorite vehicle and the open road ahead. We have become accustomed to the fact that every Sunday, chances of […]
Sushi Factory: To most, they’ll think it’s a sushi bar. Mention this to folks in the car scene however and they’ll know it is one of the famous restoration shops in the country. Jeiven Perez and the people behind the factory have consistently churned out some of the best looking retro machines over the past […]
*This is the first car I’ve ever driven that I felt was “mine”, the W140 S320 Long Wheel Base. Actually, this was my grandfather’s but then he handed the keys over to me because it was too low for him to enter without having a hard time. Being a young adult who was handed over […]
Ask any average gearhead from Manila about Autoplus Sportzentrium (now called Autoplus Sports Center) and they will likely tell you one of three things: That’s where you’ll find all your Motul fluid needs That’s where you can order a cool set of RAYS Engineering wheels. And… They have a bunch of cool builds behind their […]
It’s pretty clear that the enthusiasm for the very first GR Yaris in town is quite big. With every single part fitted to it in a span of a week, everyone watches in awe as Autoplus takes to modifying their hot hatch with much gusto. The weekend following all this fanfare marks an opportunity to […]
This group needs no further introduction to most. Chances are you’ve heard about them in one way or another. You may have seen their old photos circulating online, read scans of old magazines, or even played video games inspired by the group. Needless to say they are one of the most popular automotive groups in […]
Each year, 7/7 is a highly anticipated date by many worldwide. To others, it’s a date to buy goods on sale from Shopee or Lazada. But for gearheads, July 7 is known as 7’s day – a day to celebrate all things rotary. You’ve probably seen the celebration of 7’s Day in Japan at Fuji […]
As you can probably tell, Street63’s bread and butter is the quality of content which we create. By taking photos and stories that will do each featured vehicle or event proper justice, we bring another unique perspective towards our local automotive community – not to mention witnessing global events and trends from a Filipino perspective.

What happens when you combine German engineering with the ‘roughness’ of a Japanese legend? You get something like this. This is RWB Hikaru, Nakai-San’s 10th creation under Rauh Welt Begriff Manila. Back in December I had the opportunity to shoot this car for a couple of days. Prior to that, the closest encounter I’ve had […]
These days you can somewhat tell what kind of cars your typical famous celebrity would drive. For the most part, being incognito is key – meaning they’ll either be rolling in bulletproof Land Cruisers or the odd coachworked Toyota Hi Ace with dark tint. Should they choose to represent themselves, you may see them driving […]
We’ve previously covered Automesse, Osaka’s more laid-back answer to Tokyo Auto Salon. In many ways, Automesse is quite reflective of car culture in the Kansai region of Japan: Kansai builds are quite flashy and a bit playful, yet are still put together with the same attention to detail that Japanese builds are known for. Something […]
If you are reading this article, then you’re probably in the same situation as most of us – stuck at home and slowly running out of things to do during this quarantine (“lockdown” if you’re from outside the Philippines) period. For now, we’ve come up with a short list of things to do to hopefully […]
Last February 25, Stance Pilipinas / Manila Fitted held its first meet for the new year. In line with its yearly tradition, the kick-off event was held at the Southern part of Metro Manila. Over the past 3 years, the “Southern Sun” meet was held at the Filinvest Tent Alabang Parking Lot – which can […]
I could never figure out how I’d find myself in the position of running the bi-annual circus that is the Legends of The 90’s. What started as a small gathering of fellow 90’s-era enthusiasts back in 2015 somehow snowballed into the fanfare we’ve come to know in a span of just four years. This casual […]
