New Whip...But first Some backstory So after Christmas I decided to rent Blackout at Ebisu for Drift tourists since I was using the 86 way more and a couple bucks would be very helpful and since it was with a friend of mine who was going to run I wasn't concerned too much and if something happened the contract had insurance But I was sure to remove my r33 wheels cuz I could so he went for over a month fine and when I was free of clients I used it to give some drift lessons for sum bucks But the thing is something happened one day a kid got too excited and went straight reverse at turn 1 (after the Jump)and after he hit the barriers the car flipped so my friend called me to check. So I just called the insurance company and they decided that the car was done since the frame was bent and lots of welds were broken and since on the contract it wasn't for a street vehicle the handling of the wreck was on me which allowed me to save the engine which went out almost intact except for the intercooler, radiator and water pump who were destroyed when it flipped, the Mustang Brembos, The bride's and the steering wheel + I got the 5500 dollars totaled prize from the insurance plus the 21 days of rent the car was rented at $100 a day and the 12 courses I did wich I charged 150 for the full three hours and the rent discount got at $75 the final math is Insurance Prize +$5500 Days Rented +$3000 Classes+$1800 Costs:gas and others -$300 Total = +V$10000 With all that money I decided to look for S13 Hatch shell and got one with all panels and interior for 2000 a very nice deal because the guy had blown CA18 and needed Some money for his drift car so I got a pretty good clean shell s13 perfect for my daily project it was a 1990 charcoal metallic type 1 the shell had 132.000 kilometers but was in pristine condition such as the interior no cracks just the natural wear.  First, the car was entirely stripped to the shell Stich welded and got a full 6 point roll cage At D1 SL regulation just in case. Also fixed the minor rust spots and dings on the body nothin than half of a week of short sleep couldn't get done.  While working on the engine I also got replacements for the damaged parts on blackout's old SR also managed to get a set of eagle rods and a Greddy intake manifold from a friend which in total cost me around 800 dollars but the Sr is now ready to put over 500 horses  Exterior wise the car is almost full OEM Except for the Ganador mirrors -$200 Custom made roof and trunk spoiler, kouki fenders and taillights -$250, basic rolled fenders and to tie everything a two-tone Oem Black and Aztec Red paint job -V$450  At the interior, there were lots of goodies like a set of Greddy Sirius gauges for $400 with the controller, a Digital dash with the American HUD $200, a Nardi steering wheel and a vertex gear knob that I traded for Blackouts steering wheel, Audio stuff -$300, The hydro which I customized -$100, D-max mats -$100, Bride Lowmax seats (traded for the Gias) and to tie everything a full Ultrasuede Upholster with a F*cked dash  One of the parts that most got tweaked was the Suspension the car received full Godspeed adjustable arms -$550, Custom 4340 Drop Spindles (i made), 4340 reinforcements on the subframes (also me), A set of Tein Super drift Coils And an EDFC Active Pro Controller with all options -V$2200, To complete the old mustang brakes and he sits on a set of Centerlock Hayashi Racing Super Street wheels and Michelin tires -$2500  After all the money I think I have my new daily and it is just amazing how all the carefully planned and executed mods tie together making this extremely low and simple looking S13 a beast, for now, I'm going soft but I still have some future plans for it and a new project upcoming soon. Economy Blackout +V$10.000 S13 Spent -V$10.050 x9 Payment +$4320 |
