# GoverningNick : That S13 is rather nice. Check your PMs.

Thanks mate, gonna do it right now!

So afther me and Phantom returned from Arizona yestrday I head straight to the garage to install some of the parts that I managed to get trough the customs.


While we were in Japan, TSD Garage had bought a 1988 MK3 Supra on which they were working and they wanned to throw away the parts that were in the cars engine, and I checked to parts to see to use in my 1.5JZ, and found my self GReddy intake and exhaust camshaft and also some mint condition low milage GReddy cam and alternator belts asked the guys for the price they said it was ment to be dumped to the scrap yard so its free of charge.

Also I had forgot something in Osaka at Ryans place and that were the Weld valve covers and the weld plate

He charged me V$148.77 for the Weld covers, which I expected would cost more,also got my self a GReddy clutch oil catcher and hoses for V$50.Also another thing that I bought was a 3 position motor for the 180SX headlights, the motor costed V$50 but it was worth it, mounted it, finished the wireing adjusted the hinges on the headlights to match the new motor, and now on the headlights switch, position 0 is the standard closed headlights, 1 turn to the right sleepy look, and 2 turns to the right is fully open, also when you switch to sleepy look the headlights glow if u pull the switch outwards.

Now on to the R33, the car is on jackstands and the suspenssion was compleatly removed befour I went to Japan, new one should arrive in 2-3 or maybe 4 weeks dunno exatly yet, also the engine is at "Tokyo Speed Devils" which is going on a major tune up, for high performance and druability. The engine should be back at my place in 2-3 months.

As you might have noticed on the photo the R33 has eye lids on the headlights and it didn't had them befour cause I bought those from Ryan also as well as LED tail lights and F1 side mirors.


Afther putting the eye lids on I decided that I won't switch to projector headlights and to keep the S1 ones on the car,just need to get some cool bulbs now :D

Those 3 costed me V$400, also as u saw I debaged the trunk, also in the next few days will strip down the R33 to bare metal cause I am removing the old paint and since the car is an Arizona car and trough detailed inspections is 100% rust free, no need to media blast the car I will just sand down the layers of paint, prep the body and put new layers on the car.
Also while I was in Japan I asked my neigbour for a favour, if he could register my car at the DMV in LA, and in return he would be able to drive it since the moment he gets the plates till the moment I return also gave him money for fuel so he doesn't need to spend his.
Now the R33 needs to get finished and get registerd. This project will be a long one but it will be all worth in the end!
(OOC : Does anyone have a color code for the red similar to the one on the RGO R33 in Wangan Midnight)
