Well, that took quite a while wasn't it?


As you might remember, my car broke and i left it at ebisu for a week, also i need a new engine since it was busted.
Anyway before i left it for a week, i bring it to K-Style to get it swapped. I've been preparing everything so when i came back, it's all already done.



And i came back.

Aesthetically, my car doesn't changed much except i've removed the rear wing because the frame is kinda loose. I don't want to see it bounce off through my rear mirror.

Anyway, wondering what engine i've put into my weeb 86?

Told you that i'm going to do nuts.

VR38DETT transfused straight from 2009 Nissan GT-R, with Greddy headers, set the boost to low because i'm a fucking pussy, so it "only" boasts about 584HP.

How do i get it? well, Kumakubo-san offered me to trade this with my old FA, though as obvious i had to pay some additional price.
This engine was actually an abandoned one and used to be Kumakubo's pet projects until he doesn't really feeling it anymore.
As you might knew Kumakubo is known with his Impreza drift machine (other than his lancer, i know about it either lol don't worry) and i guess he'll need this engine in case of spare.
Cuz boxers, you know.



Took it to Ebisu Nishii for a bit of running test.

As you might expect the difference between VR38 and FA20 is quite a lot (duh) so i've expect some kick, and holy shit it kicks hard.



trying to push it on the hairpin....



aaand nailed it. I'm giggling like an idiot.
Also probably this is the first time i did not fuck up anything.

As everything is done i've thanked Kumakubo san and the whole Ebisu/K-Style crew and drive home.

...And there goes my Ebisu experience. I'm definitely gonna be back sometimes!

Nothing feels better than home, right? after all those shenanigans i've managed to bring my baby back, and everything goes happily ever after.

Oh yeah, remember that i've planned to buy a daily? well, i've done it. Nothing special though, as i just want took it as my daily driven.
Well, what is it, you wonder?

Here's the teaser.



Full feature coming soon.
