Updates on MX5, since a couple people were interested before I've been working hard on it.

The night of my last update the car was ready for paint but then I got the bright idea to go wider before painting.





Fronts were cut and we used some sheet metal to get the style I wanted. Fronts were pulled 1 3/4 inches on the lip. Rears are bolt on flares so the rears were just cut to make room. Car was primed one last time and then went to paint.

This morning the final clear coat was finished and I was able to start applying vinyl. Thus was born, Street Shark MX5;









Not sure what I'm going to do about wheels, but these don't belong to me :)) I sold the Hayashi's and these are my friend's wheels that he's letting me roll on. Was going to buy a set but I've changed my mind and I don't think they suit the car in the way that I'm looking. We'll see what happens next.

As it stands, this is my only drift car right now. The S13 just sits in the back of the garage in bits and pieces and I don't have the motivation to do anything with it. It pushes a lot of power and I'm thinking I might just do a part out and buy something else to throw that 2JZ into. Not sure what to do, if I'm 100% honest.

Do it for the ratchets
