Deciding to sell the machine you've poured your heart, soul and every penny you've earned to move on to a new project is a moment that comes to us all at some point, and when it occurs you just know it's time. But should you go out and build different cars, or reinvent the one you already have?  MOOG recently sold off his multi-talented Golf R for the impractical (but brutally fast) for a new platform to modify... but would you have stepped up with a new platform, or modified the Golf to be faster than a Lotus?  MOOG spent plenty of time...

The term supercar gets thrown around a lot today (especially if you watch this NEW EPISODE and see MOOG's new car!), but what makes a supercar super over a regular car? And what makes a hypercar better than a supercar? And why hasn't anyone brought me that sandwich I asked for 10 minutes ago? Today, I'll try to answer all those questions for you. **NOTE** if you haven't watched the new episode, watch that first as this story will make a whole bunch more sense and you'll avoid the massive SPOILER ALERT at the end of this article. You have...

As MOOG explained in the fellas' latest video (you can watch it HERE), sometimes a car needs to make way for something better. His Mk7.5211345 Golf R is a deadset weapon of a machine: fast, comfortable, reliable, practical and fairly anonymous it ticks the boxes for what many of us would consider the ultimate street car. So why do these highly acclaimed cars leave us cold?   With a 0-100km/h time of 2.8-seconds and an ability to reel off countless low-11-second quarter-mile times, yet still be reliable and comfortable enough to drive the family on an interstate roadtrip immediately afterwards, MOOG's...

Two combatants, two cars, two-thousand-dollars (plus a bit more), eight heavy chrome wheels, and a whole lot of 1990s street cred. The time for Marty and MOOG to battle their latest nuggets is upon us, so lets have a quick squiz at the combatants for those who have been away tending to their goats and Cheryls, and who may have missed the madness so far. MOOG bought himself a lightly modified Nissan NX-R coupe, which is based around the N14-generation Pulsar and packs a front-driving (and naturally aspirated) SR20DE. Kitted out with Vault Crystal chromies, an early WRX bonnet scoop...

The Sex Spec/Auto Salon era of car modifying might not be what everyone considers the bastion of good taste, but boy did it lead to some wild styling trends. While the top cars needed over-the-top bodykits, an interior totally retrimmed in leather (or vinyl) and a mad stezza to pump your hard bass beats, even just chucking some big-inch chrome wheels and slamming the ride height with some King Springs could get you entry to the scene. So, what were the top wheels of the Auto Salon era? 15-20 years ago bigger was better when it came to your chromies, but - long...
