Alex purchased the factory manual JZX100 Chaser in 2016 after it was imported earlier that year by OPJP Imports. Not having owned any Japanese cars before, but having a growing love for big four-door Japanese sedans, led Alex to acquire what has now become the most popular and iconic JZX chassis.
The car was imported without a paint code or any known specific colour. Over the years, Alex worked with various paint companies to match the original colour, eventually deciding on a unique shade with added elements to make it truly stand out.
Initially, Alex's main focus was on achieving a distinctive stance. However, in recent years, he has shifted towards creating a faster road setup that is practical for daily driving and can be properly enjoy.
