Lets do this massive friday update thing. But... where to start?
Allright. First thing. I made a move and got a store share. Basically just to keep the stickers and stuff at one place. The other half is a Custom Clothing shop.
I am there usually between 6 and 8 pm every evening. But call first just to make sure.
It might be also the last pic of the cresta like it is right now.
Moving to the AE. So during the days with some help form my people here, I installed a Toda Exhaust System which is ended with a N1 Muffler. It took a lot of bending to get the 1JZ manifold matching but it is in place now. The exhaust I grabbed at upgarage for a quite good deal so I am am happy with it now. But not yet satisfied.
The ECU still needs to be adjusted and half of the bits in the interior are still loose. But as we plan a visit to southern circuit I better get shit together...
So let's hit over to the Osaka Trip. Luckily skip was also heading to MACKAY's place so we shared fuel and I've been able to travel in comfort and not caring my sht with the train.
We arrived in the afternoon so still plenty of time for work and even more to fool around with MACKAY and Erwin. The Cage of the RPS was done and almost all the interior back in the car. Which again surprised me. But slowly I just notice that this is another level of work and quality so I get used to it (ok... I'm still stoked tbh).
So they arranged some space for me to put in my Tein's and just after I picked up the tools, two of the guys started to work on my car as well. No words...
After those been in and adjusted, thx again, we jumped into Erwins ER34 and man, he handles the thing even worser than expected! Nah, just kidding. Hell of fun. And yes... MACKAY and me been holding hands. No need to be jealous! Talking about Erwin. I gotta say it's really great to see him around here. He's actually sucking info like a sponge and is absolutely excited. His rides became also another step forward! I think skip might agree as well.
So rest of the evening we spend with Asahi and Sake (two really good dudes) and as I have a place to crash in Osaka at a special Person's I showed up today around noon.
Got the RPS back together.
We kind of hang in the shop for a while then. Helping here, fooling around there... Just before I headed back to Tokyo. Tomorrow... EBISU!
Oh... last but not least. The Cresta in it's shape just now...
#MACKAY :
Congrats on your new store man! I am very happy about that! Oh, and btw thanks for those stickers!
Also thanks a lot for choosing our shop once again, you know that we ain't there to disappoint our customers! Eh, those coilovers.. How much time did it take to install all four? Like 15-20 minutes? We definitely know how to save "some" time doing things haha.
Ohh, my man, I see that you made a move, congrats and don't fuck up, because you know..
Can't wait to spend some time in Tokyo now, we are definitely coming next week!
Oh thx man. I like it a lot and in a couple of months I might run it full time. We'll see.
20 Minutes? Damn... it took me an hour to remove the first one. While your guys almost started putting stuff together.
Try my best not to mess up....
#skip :
Congrats about the shop like Mackay said. If I get this practice car I'll also be at Ebisu so I'll meet you there for some dori action
Thx buddy! Oh that is nice. Another exciting day to look forward to.
