It is a whole lot, but I'm feeling generous as I recently thought about if I hadn't sold this car.

That being said it's either going to sit around for a long time or someone's going to buy some shit from me. :))

Other than that, FC3S finally saw some track action.



The wrap on the R35 was finished yesterday, I've got to say that I'm happy with the result.







I couldn't decide whether I wanted a blue or a purple, so this colour ended up being exactly what I needed. At night time it definitely has a more prominent purple where as the blue shows up more in the sun.

To conclude the post since I've not told much story about the R35 yet, this is basically the origin story of it. A few months ago I'd heard about an R35 (this one) that had been declared a write off due to flood damage. It was nowhere near Valo but I bit the bullet and bought this car for a nearly unrealisticlly low price. The interior wasn't in good condition from the bottom half of the seats down and basically anything to do with the electrical was fried. From buying it, I had it shipped back to Valo. I was actually surprised at the condition of the car when I got it, as it looked completely fine. With the help of Nissan of Valo, the car was eventually transformed to (near) it's original glory. It was finally in my possession in working order two weeks before my original post about it here, and then my Rocket Bunny kit arrived about one week before the post. What delayed the build the most was that I originally thought about running static, but then with the recent release of the Air Lift Performance 3H/3P set up, I decided to order that. The day I cut into the fenders was the day I got the air set up and I wanted to do everything in the same day, not starting then waiting 3 weeks to finish because I was waiting on parts. It was only a couple days of fitting parts and working on it before it was back on the ground and then of course most recently, the vinyl wrap was applied. Not sure where I'm going from here, the car is a blast to drive and I'm not sure if I really need more power out of this thing.

Do it for the ratchets
