• Rowen Japan BMW Z4 ‘White Wolf Edition’ Mixes Bavarian & JDM Styling

  In Tuning / By Freddy Chen / 13 March 2013

   

  Tommy Kaira have made a well-deserved name for themselves in the international tuning world by turning out creations like their famous body-kitted Prius and their high quality pieces on the R35 GT-R. However, since the company’s inception in 1987, Tommy Kaira has exclusively produced parts for JDM cars – namely Subarus and Nissans. However, as the tuning world has gotten smaller, TK has expanded their operation to include Audi and BMW in their line-up under their new sub-brand, Rowen Japan.

  With full kits produced for half the Audi lineup, including the TT and R8, Tommy Kaira turned their attention to BMW and latest iteration of the Z4. As the Japanese characters on the hood roughly translate to “wolf fire”, Rowen has aptly titled their first venture into the BMW brand the E89 Z4 White Wolf Edition.

• Tokyo Auto Salon 2010: Tommy Kaira ‘Silver Wolf’ Edition Nissan GT-R R35 Makes Debut

  In Auto News / By Ari Cox / 18 January 2010

  

  Tommy Kaira is a Japanese tuning shop that has made a big name for itself by putting out some of the baddest (like bad meaning good) modification packages on the planet. Strangely enough, they got their start tinkering models from Mercedes but now focus exclusively on domestic rides from manufacturers like Nissan, Toyota and Subaru. And those outside Japan may have gotten their introduction through the Gran Turismo racing series, where Tommy Kaira makes a strong showing.

  Now, at the 2010 Tokyo Auto Salon, the company is unveiling their latest package for the Nissan R35 GT-R. Known as the Silver Wolf edition, their take on Godzilla gets a full body kit, upgraded brakes, exhaust system and suspension components along with some new wheels and a revamped interior.

• The Fast and the Frugal – Introducing the Tommy Kaira Toyota Prius

  In Green Autos / By Ari Cox / 29 September 2009

  

  “Pimp my Prius” is pretty much a cliche by now but somehow it never seems to get old. And it seems the effort to transform this fuel-sipping suburban transport into a vehicle that looks like it should be competing in Formula Drift, won’t fizzle out either. Japanese tuning shop Tommy Kaira is the latest shop to take a crack at the 2010 Toyota Prius with the release of a new mod package. Admittedly, at first glance, I almost didn’t recognize the third-generation hybrid sitting beneath its new performance garb.
