I am back !

Yes , I am finally back ! This week passed so fast I didn't even realise that today is Friday ! So , as usual , here's what I did this whole week , from Monday to today.


I worked a lot this week and I am really proud to say that my repair garage plan finally kicked off ! I have costumers and now I am my own boss. I will show you the cars that I work on from time to time so stay stoked !

Monday


So , on monday I bought this awesome JZX 100 Mark II that I really really love. I always had a passion for this model and I finally managed to put my hands on one.










I paid 11325V$ for the car.

I am going to use this car as a daily car so eventually I will have to find the full interior (panels and carpets and seats etc). The previous owner wanted to make it a drift car , but he abandoned the project because he ran out of money sadly. I am probably going to drift the JZX this weekend so stay tuned.

I also ordered the front panels for the missile. They should arrive on Wednesday. I paid 1000V$ for the parts.

Tuesday


On Tuesday , a special kind of costumer arrived at my shop. Here's his car :




Yes , a K24 V-TEC swapped 94' Ford Escort Cosworth. The owner is working on making this car his rally car. The issue was just a busted starter so it was easy to fix. He paid me 350V$ for the job.

I also checked the belly of the JZX for rust. Its clean like a new-born baby's butt.

Wednesday


The front pieces for the "missile" arrived today ! Here's how it looks :




Yes , a 180sx front swap. How is this called even called if the sil80 is a 180sx with a silvia front , this would be a ...S180 ... ?

I'm gonna call it a S180 from now on. I also sent the S180 to the paint shop for a fresh repaint. It should be done tommorow.

I also worked on a 240sx today , it had some wiring issues , but I fixed them. I got 500V$ for the job. No pics because I had to do some other stuff that day...

Thursday


On Thursday , the S180 came back from the paint shop with this fresh new color :






Yep , a purple S180. I paid 1000V$ for the repaint. They also repainted the valve cover. The car now looks super sick in my opinion. I'm still deciding if I actually want to sell it , because that was my initial plan , but now I kinda fell in love with it...


I also worked on a 350Z today. Just an oil change , I got 50V$ for the job.


Friday (Today)


Today I didn't do a lot of stuff , I just checked the engine of the JZX ( I'm gonna call the JZX Carmen from now on. I really like the name :)) ) and took it out for a spin. Here's some pics :








Thats the update for today. I am still deciding if I want to keep the S180 , but I have a bunch of awesome offers for it... I don't know what to do... Maybe you guys can help me out.

anyway , here are the balance : 24325V$-11325V$(JZX100)-1000V$(front swap parts for S180)+350V$(Cosworth repair)+500V$(240sx repair)-1000V$(S180s repaint)+50V$(Oil change for a 350Z)=11900V$ Left

See you guys tommorow !
