ENEOS brings trio of Frankenstein cars to SEMA 2023

ENEOS USA

ENEOS – Japan’s largest oil company and supplier of motor oil and transmission fluids to the majority of Asian vehicle manufacturers – will be located in booth #24233 in Central Hall at the annual SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week. In addition to supplying the aftermarket with premium vehicle lubricants, ENEOS provides oils to Japanese and Asian manufacturers for factory fill in Japan, Asia, United States, Europe, Central and South Americas, Middle East and Africa. This year’s booth will again highlight the company’s activities and allow visitors to discover the most advanced ENEOS products, such as the new 0W-8 motor oil for the latest hybrid vehicles. Display vehicles throughout the show will capture the essence of ENEOS and showcase many of the company’s products, including its Racing Series Motor Oils and more. ENEOS JAGUAR E-TYPE 2JZ Taking center stage in the ENEOS booth will be a 1969 Jaguar XKE 2+2. Celebrating 75 years of the manufacturer’s sports car heritage, this particular example has been equipped with a modified version of the Toyota 2JZ-GTE inline-6 24v 3.0L engine, swapped directly from the Supra. Constructed by professional drift racer and car builder Faruk Kugay at DevSpeed Motorsports, the E-type is the third car in a series of creations that take Europe’s finest vehicles and combines them with Japan’s finest engineering. Previous projects have included an E30 BMW with F20C Honda 2.0L engine swap in 2021, and a 997.1 Porsche 911 GT3 with Subaru Impreza STI EJ25 engine last year. The Jaguar conversion certainly fits the Frankenstein theme of previous years and takes it up a notch with increased use of modern technology to update the classic British sports car. To honor its Japanese hosts, the Supra’s 2JZ-GTE engine was selected because it’s representative of the vehicles ENEOS supports since it has supplied factory-fill lubricants to the vast majority of Japan’s auto industry for decades. Inevitably, a regular 2JZ wouldn’t suffice, so Kugay drew on his Formula DRIFT roots. Using the same engine in his Nissan S14 competition car, a number of key components were thrown into the cauldron, including a new factory head casting with Deatschwerks Injectors, and a full Nuke Performance fuel system. Internally, the engine was reinforced with CP-Carillo pistons and rods, which will be expertly lubricated by ENEOS Racing Street 0W-50 oil. All the work was in preparation for the Borg Warner EFR 8474 turbocharger and Vibrant Performance Intercooler. With a Link G4 Fury ECU providing the spark, Kugay is confident the engine will see 750hp once the final dyno tuning is completed. Designed as a hot rod for the street and track, Kugay consulted Charlie’s Customs in England. They executed a similar conversion and recommended the E60 BMW rear subframe, suspension and differential. While it’s not quite a bolt-on conversion, it addressed many of the conversion issues and will help put the power to the pavement via an E36 BMW M3 ZF five-speed manual transmission. The considerable power increase over the original 4.2L straight-six engine meant the Jag required bigger boots. While the generous wheelbase of the 2+2 helped with the engine installation, the XKE’s slender hips weren’t going to accommodate sufficient rubber to get the job done. Initially taking inspiration from the Jaguar factory’s Lightweight racer, fender flares were designed from a 3D scan taken by Adam Bao at Illumasthetic. Once the proportions were confirmed, his team 3D-printed the new pieces. These were delivered to the crew at Vinny’s Autobody in Sonoma, CA where Ken Heilmann laid carbon fiber to strengthen the panels, Matt Thorsson and Jason Mohon prepped the bodywork, before Vinny Thorsson painted it. The body was then able to swallow 17” Rotiform STL wheels, which were custom-built in two pieces to achieve the desired width and offset; the design reminiscent of the original E-Type Lightweight wheels. Finally, a set of the new, high-performance Bridgestone Potenza RE-71 RS tires were fitted to ensure the Jag was equally at home on the road or track. The car was built by DevSpeed Motorsports, which is based at Sonoma Raceway by a team including Faruk Kugay, Victor Freire, Jose Varguez, Alexander Forsythe, Luke Wright, Sean McLean, Josh Sher, Seth Lewis and Dustin Volkmuth. The livery was applied by John Sharp at Landmark Grafix. Tech Spec for the ENEOS JAGUAR E-TYPE 2JZ can be found HERE TWIN-ENGINED NISSAN 350Z Displayed prominently outside SEMA’s Central Hall in display spot V049, this insane 2003 Nissan 350Z was the winner of the ENEOS / Pit+Paddock 2023 SEMA Show Car Contest hosted by ENEOS ambassador Dai Yoshihara. Powered by TWO turbocharged Honda engines, Ashley Robinson’s wild creation was selected to represent both brands by public vote and a judging panel. Purchased at auction for $800, Robinson built the Nissan with drifting in mind. But the Frankenstein project would later take on a life of its own. Bought with a damaged rear-end, the car was reworked entirely. The damaged area was cut away before Robinson fabricated a roll-cage, which extended to the rear of the vehicle, mimicking the shape as the original body. After two years shredding tires and an unfortunate roll-over, Robinson was too committed to the project to give up. Determined to move forward, he envisioned the twin-engined concept. The result was a monster mash-up, powered by two turbocharged Honda K24 engines, positioned in the front and middle, lubricated and protected by ENEOS high-performance engine oil. Having overcome the technical hurdles of installing, turbocharging, and synchronizing the two engines, Robinson created custom aero. He handcrafted fender flares but left the exo-skeleton exposed at the rear to showcase his creation. The ingenious and inventive fabrication make Robinson’s twin-engined 350Z a spectacle worthy of its contest-winning featured vehicle placement at the 2023 SEMA Show where it will certainly grab plenty of attention. Tech Spec for the TWIN-ENGINED NISSAN 350Z can be found HERE 1997 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER PICKUP The neo-vintage Toyota Land Cruiser 70/80-Series pickup was created by RPM Off-Road Garage in Monrovia, CA. It’s something both Japanese truck and off-road enthusiasts can appreciate, creating a truly unique vehicle that can be enjoyed on and off America’s roads. It will be displayed at SEMA 2023 in featured vehicle spot V053 alongside the Frankenstein twin-engine Nissan 350Z. RPM owner Steve Lam bought a damaged 1997 Land Cruiser FZJ80 chassis for its off-road capability and durability since it features robust solid axles and coil sprung suspension, which is ideal for dirt. The 2009 HZJ79 pickup body was sourced from the Land Cruiser Heritage Museum in Utah, which was leftover parts imported from the Middle East after it was stripped to become an armored vehicle. This conversion isn’t for the fainthearted: RPM lengthened the FZJ80 frame 18” and fabricated mounts to attach the HZJ79 body. Interestingly, the same body has essentially been around since the mid ’80s, and can be found all over the world… except in the United States. So, the RPM pickup is a brilliant example of what can be done with the right technical knowledge and determination to create something extraordinary. The vehicle will be utilized for off-road and overland expeditions by Steve and the RPM team. ENEOS is proud to have partnered with RPM Off-Road Garage since 2020. As a registered member of the ENEOS Garage program, the shop utilizes ENEOS performance lubricants for its in-house projects and to service customer vehicles Tech Spec for the 1997 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER PICKUP can be found HERE EDITOR’S NOTE High-resolution images for editorial use of the cars mentioned above can be found here: dropbox.com/sh/6cw00bvo64aftif/AABl8FZJs762gp121-VQj_Kha?dl=0 ABOUT ENEOS MOTOR OIL Established in 1888 and headquartered in Tokyo, ENEOS is Japan’s largest oil company, with manufacturing and sales facilities throughout the world. With a unique position in its home market, ENEOS has worked with Asia’s automakers and leading race teams for decades, creating advanced lubricants with their vehicle engineers to provide optimum fuel economy with maximum power and long-term protection.

Pizzeria Uno Experiences First Net Growth in Restaurant Units in 15 Years

UNO Pizzeria & Grill

At the close of the company’s fiscal year on September 30, 2023, Uno Restaurants divulged net positive restaurant growth for the first time in 15 years. This is the first time since 2007 the brand returned to expansion mode. The net gain was a result of the company’s new growth strategy focusing primarily on the hotel industry. With its pizza-centric menu, Pizzeria Uno is positioned as the perfect full-service hotel restaurant. During the 2023 fiscal year, Pizzeria Uno opened five new hotel-based restaurant locations converted to an Uno from previous underperforming dining concepts. In 2022, Pizzeria Uno began expanding into the hotel space. Hoteliers are fast embracing the vaunted Unos brand and doubling or even tripling restaurant sales volume. This strong revenue growth is attributed to multiple Unos concept revenue streams. First, hotel- restaurants capture more hotel guest traffic by leveraging the power of the nationally known and trusted brand name for quality pizza and other menu items. Additionally, hotels are capturing lost revenue streams. These hotels are getting a higher share of food sales as guests select Unos pizzas and more rather than ordering takeout from unknown brands within the hotel’s respective community. Finally, the famous brand appeals to those living near the hotel property, boosting sales from the neighborhood via on site dining or via meal delivery apps. “Moving into the hotel restaurant conversion space is a key go-forward strategy for us,” said CEO Erik Frederick. “Hotel owners are quickly joining the Uno’s family because of our track record turning loss leading restaurant space into a profit center. When they learn of this solution, owners recognize the wisdom in creating a Pizzeria Uno in their hotel.” Many hotel franchise companies require property owners to renovate hotel and restaurant spaces after a set period of time. Converting an existing space to an Unos during an already planned remodel is relatively inexpensive incrementally. Hospitality expert, No Vacancy podcast creator and host, and corporate strategic advisor Glenn Haussman, says this niche is a great a pairing for Unos and hotel owners. “Hotel restaurants typically underperform compared to other dining establishments within a community. Smart hoteliers understand the Pizzeria Uno concept checks many boxes for hotel owners, reinvigorating an existing space with a universally loved product, pizza! Plus, it creates unrealized revenue streams, directly leading to higher profitability.” This is more critical than ever as pricing pressure due to inflation has hurt overall hotel profitability. Unos will continue to open standalone restaurants as well, but will predominantly focus on the hotel restaurant space as the main growth vehicle for the company. About UNO Pizzeria & Grill Based in Boston, Massachusetts, Uno Restaurant Holdings Corporation includes approximately 80 company-owned and franchised UNO Pizzeria & Grill restaurants located in 18 states, and the District of Columbia, India, and Saudi Arabia. UNO is all about connecting people over pizza – from its famous Chicago Deep Dish, which UNO invented in 1943, to its Chicago Thin Crust, to its gluten-free and vegan pizzas. The Company also operates Uno Foods, a consumer packaged-foods business which supplies supermarkets, airlines, movie theaters, hotels, airports, travel plazas, and schools, with both frozen and refrigerated UNO branded products.

Realbricks Aims To Overcome Property Value Barriers In Real Estate Investing For Passive Income

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Begin your real estate investing journey on the Realbricks website! The COVID pandemic has arguably changed the real estate landscape in many ways, and the effects of the post-pandemic boom still persist. The vacation real estate market has experienced increased investment and growth in the post-COVID era. The pandemic led to a surge in interest and demand for vacation properties and more people now prioritize safe and private getaways. According to industry statistics, the vacation rental industry's market value increased by 22.76% from 2020 to 2021. With the low-interest rate environment during COVID-19, many Americans took advantage of the favorable conditions and invested in vacation properties. Sales of vacation homes surged, outpacing the growth in total existing home sales in 2020. The National Association of Realtors reported a 16.4% rise in vacation home sales in 2020, compared to a 5.6% growth in total existing home sales. At the beginning of 2021, about 60% of properties were sold above their advertised prices as a result of the "race for space" among homebuyers. However, many claim that is not just the vacation real estate market that is experiencing growth. Despite some ups and downs in the market, more and more people are looking to rent which makes investing in the rental real estate market attractive. Approximately 41% of Americans are choosing to rent, and rental properties are experiencing an increase in demand based on migration patterns. The apartment rental market in the U.S. was worth $258.4 billion in 2022 and has displayed consistent growth over the past five years. The U.S. alone makes up over 10% of the world’s residential value at an estimated market size of $2.53 trillion in 2023 and is also the world’s largest commercial property market. But even though the market is attractive in many ways, a large portion of investors have historically only had limited access to it due to barriers to entry such as the high amount of investment required – until now. Realbricks is a proprietary technology company that has recognized the increased interest in real estate and aims to democratize real estate investing. The company created a platform that makes real estate investment accessible to anyone, anywhere, empowering individual investors to participate in the real estate short-term rental market. The company seeks to enable people to express their interest in investing in vacation rentals like Airbnbs, long-term rentals, and multifamily properties without ever having to talk to a realtor. Its fractionalized approach to real estate means investors can express their interest to fractionally own rental homes, vacation rentals, and specialty furnished properties that they would otherwise not have access to. Traditionally, real estate investment has been limited to those with significant financial resources and industry connections. Realbricks seeks to disrupt this paradigm by allowing investors to build their real estate portfolios "brick by brick," enabling fractional ownership of properties. Realbricks believes that democratizing real estate investment not only benefits individual investors but also has positive social and economic consequences. The company says that opening up real estate investment to a wider population can support the growth of local communities. As more people invest in properties, Realbricks believes neglected neighborhoods can undergo revitalization, leading to improved living conditions, increased employment opportunities, and enhanced urban development. Expanding investment opportunities also empowers individuals to take control of their financial futures. Real estate has the potential to generate passive income streams and build wealth over time. By enabling more people to invest in real estate, we provide them with an additional avenue for financial security and independence, reducing their reliance on traditional employment and fostering economic empowerment. At the heart of Realbricks' philosophy is its commitment to simplicity and security. The company aims to have its platform prioritize user experience, offering a straightforward login and setup process that caters to both seasoned investors and newcomers to the investment world. However, the company has taken steps to ensure this emphasis on simplicity does not compromise security. All user data is encrypted, and Realbricks aims to provide users with peace of mind as they explore the wide range of fractional investment opportunities available on the platform.

Meme Coin Resurgence On The Way, and Is This The New Leader?

RoundHouse Media

There is little doubt that meme coins are a crucial part of crypto. They might be considered "jokes" without utility, but a revolution is happening. TL;DR: - Meme coins are worth over $16 billion and continue to rise in value. - Top meme coins, including Dogecoin and Shiba Inu, were hit hard by crypto bears in 2022, but there is a revival with emerging projects. - NuggetRush is a new meme coin project that's breaking into the scene with unique offerings and a desire to add utility to meme coins. Looking at market cap alone, meme coins are worth upwards of $16 billion, and the value keeps on rising as creators innovate, aiming to fuse enhanced functionality and fun while using the same old crypto rails for security and accessibility. In 2022, top crypto coins and meme projects, including Dogecoin (DOGE) and Shiba Inu (SHIB), were battered by crypto bears, losing over 85% of their 2021 peaks. However, looking at recent events, there is a revival on-course with emerging projects, including PepeCoin (PEPE) and a new entrant, NuggetRush (NUGX), dominating headlines and attracting supporters across the crypto divide. The questions are: With Bitcoin and crypto prices bottoming up and breaking higher from 2022 and 2023 pits, will the uptrend be sustained to trigger resurgence in the meme coin scene? Will ambitious meme coin projects like NuggetRush draw benefits and raise millions in their ongoing presale? This article looks to find answers: >> Buy NuggetRush Now << The Meme Coin Revival To have a clearer understanding, we have to cycle back. Dogecoin is the first meme coin, created as a joke based on the Shiba Inu dog. It has since floated higher and is a top-20 coin by market cap. Dogecoin's surge to emerge as a top crypto is partly because of celebrity support and Elon Musk, the billionaire leader of Tesla and SpaceX, and the owner of X, the social media platform. With Bitcoin and Ethereum prices rising, DOGE is up 30% from October lows, clearing above the critical resistance level. Optimists expect DOGE to reclaim 2021 highs of around $0.78; an elusive target. While Dogecoin bulls are buoyant, Shiba Inu continues to build, diversifying their base. Their primary objective is to expand on Shibarium, a scaling solution forked from Polygon. The team expects Shibarium to offer relief for its holders and developers looking to build on this platform. Despite the initial hype, SHIB, the native token of Shiba Inu; and BONE, the token priming Shibarium, have remained under pressure. Even so, experts doubt the recent upswing until there is a sharp close above August 2023 highs. Market observers expect meme coins to be driven by other facets of crypto, including decentralized finance (DeFi) and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Modern meme coins like NuggetRush have integrated these elements into their operations, giving them an edge and, most importantly, increasing the utility of their native ERC-20 coin, NUGX. Is NuggetRush The New Leader? For the approach adopted by NuggetRush (NUGX), especially their desire to add utility to meme coins, NUGX stands to gain in the next bull run making it a top crypto to buy for astute investors. NuggetRush is building a play-to-earn (P2E) game where meme coin fans can participate, monetizing their skills when earning rewards. While NUGX is a meme coin, adding the P2E game to the equation and merging NFTs and DeFi elements means the token has more utility. At the core, NUGX will be used to distribute rewards for gamers while concurrently helping deserving artisanal miners. NuggetRush gaming characters are available as NFTs, and players can customize their own. The difference is that once they have them, they can stake them, earning up to 20% APY. The NuggetRush presale is ongoing. In this top ICO, over 15 million NUGX have been sold, each at 0.010 USDT, in Stage 1. However, the token could list at $0.020, meaning early adopters stand to double their initial investment on launch day. >> Buy NuggetRush Now << Conclusion The broader crypto market revival appears to be drawing more people to consider meme coins. Dogecoin and other legacy projects are popular, but NuggetRush is breaking into the scene, partly thanks to its unique offerings and desire to add utility. For this reason, some investors say NUGX is one of the best crypto to buy now. Thus far, more investors are exploring the project, with some considering NUGX as they diversify their portfolios.

As a part of this strategic alliance, Coolita users in India and across the globe, through their wide range of smart TV sets, including COOCA, METZ, Panasonic, Croma, Thomson and others, will have simple access to stream QYOU Media India's growing portfolio of FAST channels – including The Q, The Q Kahaniyan, Q GameX, Sadhguru TV, and Bollywood Hungama Live on a free ad-supported basis. Early on, Coolita recognized an opportunity for a cost-efficient, user-friendly, and flexible OS in a receptive market. Indeed, the Connected/Smart TV market is booming, with 90% of TVs sold in India last year being Smart TVs. Global ad revenues in this space also surged, hitting $25.9 billion and marking a 13.2% CAGR in 2023. This growth enhances the viewer experience by offering high-quality, localized content. Sony Group Corp (NYSE: SONY), through its Home Entertainment and Sound division, produces LCD televisions, home audio, Blu-ray Disc players and portable audio devices. When it comes to hardware, Sony's TV range is top-class. An 8K TV is four times sharper than a 4K TV and 16 times sharper than a standard 1080p HDTV. This high resolution allows for incredibly detailed and lifelike images, giving viewers an immersive experience. Typically, 8K TVs also incorporate advanced technologies like HDR, wider color gamuts, and faster refresh rates, elevating the overall picture quality. While 8K content is still limited, the TVs usually employ upscaling algorithms to enhance lower-resolution content. The Z9K from Sony stands as a premier 8K TV, epitomizing visual brilliance. Additionally, Sony's 2023 Bravia XR TVs bring forth superior image processing. All Sony TVs from 2023 run Google TV, which offers user-friendly navigation and integrates seamlessly with services from Apple and Amazon. Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) aims to drive digital change using smart cloud and edge technology. Its goal is to help everyone and every business globally succeed. Microsoft's primary focus in the entertainment hardware space is its Xbox gaming console series. The Xbox consoles, while primarily designed for gaming, offer streaming capabilities and apps that allow users to access various streaming platforms, effectively turning them into a part of the Connected TV ecosystem. The Xbox serves as a multimedia device, allowing users to stream movies, TV shows, and other content in addition to playing games. In its fiscal 2024, Q1 earnings report Microsoft reported better-than-expected subscriber growth in Xbox Game Pass as well as first-party content, primarily due to the launch of a game called Starfield. Xbox content and services revenue increased 13% and 12% in constant currency, while Xbox hardware revenue declined 7% and 8% in constant currency. Roku ( NASDAQ: ROKU) introduced streaming to TV. It connects users to their favorite content, helps content creators grow and profit from their audiences, and offers advertisers unique ways to reach consumers. Roku TV TM models, streaming players, and related audio devices are sold in various countries, either directly or through licensing with TV brands. Roku's recent Video on Demand (VOD) Evolution study highlights Canadian TV streaming habits. Now, 75% of Canadian internet users choose TV streaming, making it the most favored TV source. Ad-supported TV streaming has seen a rapid rise, with 59% watching it in the past year, a significant increase from 42% the previous year. Additionally, 63% plan to watch ad-supported streams in the coming year. This shift benefits advertisers, offering better targeting and flexibility. Ad engagement on streaming platforms is high, with many viewers responding by visiting brand websites or seeking more product information. This study shows that TV streaming presents unique opportunities for advertisers to effectively reach their audience. The CTV landscape touches a multitude of companies, and Sony, Microsoft, Roku, and QYOU Media are just a few of them. Curt Marvis, CEO of QYOU Media continues to view the CTV space as a strong area for growth in India and beyond in the years ahead. He notes "the partnership with Coolita allows QYOU to further strengthen its digital presence on connected TVs in India while also offering unique curated channels to a global audience."
