Hell’s Gate in a Z10 Soarer. (4K)

We've been dreaming of shooting a feature video on this Z10 Soarer by Rudeboy Custom for the last few months. Finally, last weekend, the weather was nice, the stars aligned, and we were able to make all of our dreams come true.

What started as a nonchalant, lowdown Toyota has become the ultimate "nonsuri" machine; fitted with some tough, black steel wheels that fit perfectly into the handmade metal fenders and finished off with a custom exhaust to compliment the high-pitched tones of the 1G-GE engine.

At idle, the car sounds pretty unsuspecting, but full-throttle brings out a new beast with a menacing howl. After washing the car and sweeping rocks off the road, we set out for Hells Gate so we could experience the rush of hearing what the car sounded like running through the tunnels... the result was life-changing.

This car has undergone a full transformation, and the final product came to life through a labor of love and relentless dedication to bringing a clear vision into reality. After seeing this car at N.A. Nonsuri and 2024 New Year Touring events, it was truly a pleasure to be able to shoot a dedicated feature video that highlighted the glory of the 1G and showcased the gorgeous end result of all the hard work that went into building a car that not only looks perfect but is more than capable.

As always, if you've made it this far, thank you so much for reading the article. Hopefully, you thoroughly enjoyed the video as well.

See you next week!
