UNEPIC FUN TIME

Tomorrow was supposed to be the day I get my S15 (Project Ichigo) tuned, emphasis on "supposed to." You'll see why that's so later on. But today I decided to bring the S14 out for some fun times. I wanted to compare how different the power and response was between the S14 and the S15.



I put the Gram Lights 57Cs on because I knew I was gonna slide it HARD.



First order of business, pick up my Z32 MAF from the post office.



Then I was on my way. Touring around, driving through city streets and whatnot.

I had my dinner at a super good curry place, the renowned CURRY HOUSE CoCo ICHIBANYA, then after a short drive I found myself within a parking lot near my house

I called up a friend, met up with him and told him to help me out by getting the R33 stockies from WestKyo, should I mangle the tires on these 57Cs and need those.





When he came back. YAP YAP, that was the G O ! signal. It was time to

A T T A C K

I absolutely shredded the living fuck out of the tires. And eventually I had to swap them out. Time to check: 1:47 AM.





I got the R33 stockies on...

Then after a LONG session of drifts. IT HAPPENED.

Definitely NOT good news.



It was pretty late and at that point I was pretty dazed, but from what I can remember (And from what Jack told me), I hit the parking lot metal fence. I swung around, hit my fender then proceeded spinning until my rear end hit some pole, and I stopped near another metal fence.



The next thing I knew, I was being transported/chauffeured in an S13.







Jack dropped me off at my crib. Thanks man!

:THE MORNING AFTER:

Gave Jack a call to thank him and to learn about what happened as previously mentioned. Then I asked where the car was. It was at the police station, impounded and awaiting penalty fees.

So without skipping a beat I hopped right into my FC1 and floored it.



I went into the station and asked for the car. After paying 400,000 yen (V$4,000) in infractions (accident caused by reckless imprudence, destruction of private property, license plate not visible, shaken expired). I was out to claim it and have it towed back to WestKyo.

My heart is broken. I don't know what to feel.

The damage was far more than I expected. I don't even know what the extent of it is. Doing that drift and that epic (apparently unepic) fun time was a HUGE mistake. Now I remember, I was getting a feel for the RB25DET, pretty much going hard on it and flooring it, then I saw a dog cross right in front of me. As my instinct was to dodge, I turned the wheel, that's what caused me to spin and eventually crash the car. But full disclosure I take full custody for what's happened. I really shouldn't have been drifting at a parking lot with limited lighting at 3 in the morning. Lesson learned, but it's sad the car had to go through something traumatic before I could learn my lesson.

With all of that said, I tried firing it up but it would only sputter and then die shortly after. I had it towed to WestKyo.







I don't know what to do or what to even say at this point. But either way, Project S14 is out of commission, for now? For a while? Forever? Who knows. But I guess I'll be focusing on other things for now. F.
