So speaking of the 180, she lives.





Got the motor in and fired up in three days, and I remember how much I love the gruff tone of an SR20 at idle. Garage Autohero sent me an SR cover all the way from Portland, WA in the US, and they painted it a beautiful pink flake. The SR runs a Tomei M7960 turbo (was a kit for $1250)- get one here

It's a very streetable setup - the kit included a side mount intercooler but I decided to run custom FMIC piping to an HKS black intercooler. All managed by an Apexi Power FC ECU and Turbosmart boost controller. Going to put it on a dyno sometime soon, but she purrs.

Then later in the day, my Nine Fiasco friends called me up and told me to come to Ebisu to chill. Ryan didn't have his new car yet, but Henry brought his now Ebisu spec S13 to shred. I made the 2 hour trip to Ebisu and paid a small entry fee to just shred. I stuck to the Minami course today, but when Matsuri week is on I'll definitely shred Higashi and Kita. Virtually no people today, given it was a Thursday afternoon and people were at work while I took the day off. There was one guy in a completely stock Eunos going HARD, throwing it in much faster than I'd expect.



And of course, there was Henry..





It was a good day for me to test the JZX, see how she was running for a basically stock 1JZ setup. Was wonderful.









Managed to link most of the course, which is impressive considering this is a 3000+lb car with roughly 276 horsepower when new. Definitely going to go for more power and better tires. Surprisingly didn't burn through a whole set, was able to drive home on these.
