# Bad.Compqny : Sick RP famThanks. Nice Mark II too Typical me starting a new page. Added 39 seconds later: # Lagano : Last week we began swapping parts from the S14 Silvia to the 240SX and vice versa. First we took out the interior because Skip wanted to keep his S14 RHD, that means the 240 chassis needed some modifications before fitting on the RHD dashboard and steering rack. Now we could swap the LHD dash in the Silvia but we decided to keep it RHD as well cause it's a JDM car, after all. So we put the 240SX dash on sale and quickly got a deal, the buyer will install it in a S13. Before that we bought another JDM dashboard for the Silvia.Just gonna quote the last post.

Nice conversion! I didn't know that it is illegal to register a car although it technically is a same vehicle.

# Sleepin mOnkey : Actualy those cars can be registered in two waysThat would've been possible but more expensive then to do what we are doing now. We are just transferring the parts from the JDM car onto a USDM 240SX chassis and vice versa, then we are going to resell the JDM Silvia with the 240SX parts. Hopefully this makes sense. Added 7 minutes later: # Soju : Nice conversion! I didn't know that it is illegal to register a car although it technically is a same vehicle.We tried to do that but the law was so strict that even the name stopped us registering it sadly.

So as you've heard from Phonexius, me and Skip are in LA at the moment to help him with the shop and his newly-bought E31. It was a pretty long trip and we were working on Skip's S14 before that so i didn't really have time to post anything.
Anyway, here's what has changed. 3Style decided to do some changes to his 180 after a while, he changed the bodykit to Type X and it looks good just like on his previous S13. He also traded the front rims for AVS 5's and changed the taillights. He's really a kouki fan! Moving on to my MX5: After some browsing on good ol' Craigslist i found a stock hood for only V$40. I also bought a set of headlights, they work perfectly. The only problem was that the hood couldn't close because of the engine cover so i had to take it off. The Miata was then ready to go, so i visited the DMV to register it! I ordered a special 46 star plate for it, it cost a little more but it really fits with the color. I registered the Chevelle too, it was built as a track car but there aren't many tracks around here so i decided to drive it on the road. Now it has the new rims that i already showed you, i wanted to upgrade the suspension as well so i bought coilovers for the front. However i didn't find any rear coilovers so i just bought a set of aftermarket shocks and springs instead. We headed to LA on monday, Skip borrowed my 350Z and i took the Chevelle cause i really wanted to drive it. We're currently busy with the engine of Phonexius's E31, also Skip found a new project car which he will tell you about soon!! |

The BMW looks nice.
Also can I have the ripoff wheels as I need something to run the Golf on? Even if they're rubbish, but they'll do well in their purpose. Added 36 seconds later: As well as the 370z looking excellent and OEM-ish. |

Thanks for the rims, and the JZX90 and S14 look really good. Can you PM me or tell me the mod for the rims though?
(In RP) the rims will be put on the MK6 Golf, to roll it around. |

Hey guys, i'm kinda late with this update because of more important stuff which i'll tell you about later.
Anyway, i got this front lip for the Chevelle. I didn't like the intercooler sticking out and this did the trick, it makes the car look lower too! I love it, i'll just have to drive a bit more careful now. I also installed a cup holder and a boost gauge. The Apexi FC commander needed some adjustments to fit with the LS2 but now it works perfectly, i also turned up the boost just a little. Later that day i tried out Skip's E36, he fixed the misfire by replacing spark plugs but the engine still doesn't run very well. We'll probably have to take it apart to find out the problem, or in worst case scenario, swap in the 4 cylinder that we got with it. Meanwhile 3Style was still in Oklahoma to prepare his 180SX for sale, check it out in the used car section. *LINK* |

Another trip to JapanSo now i'm in Yashio with Skip and i love it already, there are cool cars all over the place. I don't really have anything to do for now because my S14 is still on the way from America. You may ask why did i bring a rolling shell if there's loads of them in Japan. Well, a S14 Silvia is illegal in USA, we only used it for parts there and i'd have to export it anyway if i was selling it. And don't you worry that it has no engine because we planned everything.With the car i also brought a RB26DETT which Skip bought a long time ago, we had some ideas to use it but none of them really worked out. The main reason for this trip is setting up the new Art Of Wheel shop, but i'll have a lot of fun on the way! I'll post some more when the Silvia arrives. |
