# MACKAY : Yeah, I already took the delivery of your car, I will start working on it this Tuesday and it will be back in Tokyo on Friday, I really don't have a lot of time these days, also the price of the cage will be 2000, and all the paperwork and required safety certificates will be there too in case you want to compete sometime in the future.Perfect as Usual. I might come over by Thursday by train and with coils think we find room to fit them in? # RocketBunnyS13 : S13 x AE86 is a pretty cool tandem fam. CRESTA IS GOOOOOOODDDThx man.  WARNING HUGE UPDATE.... Let's start with the day to day stuff. First of all Skip showed up with his Supra. Such a sweet thing. Makes we want my own back. So we went a bit for a cruise. And did what cargoes do. Find a parking lot, fool around and have some parking lot food and drinks while talking about all sorts of car stuff! I enjoyed the evening very much!
 Next thing... i sold the JZX91. Basically just the reason I need the money and the parking lot of our garage is almost packet. Let's move on to my AE. I spend basically the whole Weekend at the garage getting it ready. Well it isn't yet but I managed to roll around our garage.  Looks quite good so far I think. I guess you'd like to see that 1JZ. Well here it is...  It's all really queeesed in into the engine bay but it's working. Well the ECU is not adjusted yet neither I mounted the exhaust so the thing is a "bit" loud!  On the inside. Well not much changed so far. Will pick up a deep Nardi at the Art of Wheels this week. Yep... I like those Nardi wheels....  I hope this week I get the rest of the parts and next week go for a ride. With skip and the AE boys! Would be great to meet Zero and the other AE people as well. Now we expect this Story to end for now right? We'll.... it doesn't. While me and Hatori went to get some ramen we went by a lonely Trueno. With a "販売用" sign. It looked damn beaten. But the Hatori thought we ring the seller up and see what he wants so I might have a car for spares. If it is cheap. So called, guy came, looked at car, he asked 2.5K I said 2K is all I could pay now. He agreed I had another trueno.  So we went back, took a rope and a spare wheel and towed the thing to the garage. So while I had a break on my AE I thought I wash the little trueno an inspect it a bit more.  And then one thing watched my eyes. An APEX stich on the seats which i never saw before. And some other unfamiliar things.  So I ran the Chassis number and it turns out ...  that this beaten up thing....  Is one of 400 ever made 1987 Trueno Black Limited. Which for you people who are not into Toyotas... is kinda the holy grail of AE86's. So let's all cheer a bit! And during the days I sure will do another update... |
