CHANGES



As the title said, some things changed in these 3-4 days. I started a blog called "shirtstuckedin" and an article is coming out on the 26th now.

Well, I sold the Crown for 7K, it's cool because you know it had a crash and everything so it's fine. And the RX7, well I sold it to the guy whose garage I was using for the time.

Anyways, the big news is that I moved from Osaka. With all the fuss around the blog I had to move to the epicenter of all the drifting, and that is Tokyo.
Because I'm looking for those 90's drift style cars, I've read some articles and they all said that Tokyo is the place where you want to be.

So I packed my things and my equipment and went there.

Ofc I had to get myself a new car. Sort of new...

Before I left Osaka, I placed a bid on a 1989 Nissan 180SX, and when I got here yesterday morning, I saw that I won the auction.



This is it. So the car was used as a drift car for some time. It has some good parts on it, but also it has some problems.

The car has 141,xxx KM's on the clock, the engine has around 110,xxx as the owner said. The engine is a SR20DE Silver Top.


The only mods on the engine are a TODA exhaust header and a APexi Air filter.
But the downside is that it has a blown gasket and the sparkplugs are dead.

The good thing is that it has a genuine HKS exhaust, with some scratches but it's nothing that serious.



Now the running gear. The car has front and rear swaybars but idk the brand of them. Also the front brakes are from a 1994 Supra MKIV and the rear ones are Wilwood disks with ProjectU calipers, but the brake pads needs to be changed.

The front rims are stock S13 rims, and the rear are genuine Skyline R32 rims, but... the tires are old and worn out.
