Damn.. You bought that place for 2,5k and we are paying 9k+ in rent monthly, ehh, some people are just lucky. :rolleyes:

If you need one more D-Max rear bumper contact me, I can sell you one for cheap.


Starting to pimp out the S14

○ Well , well , well... Let's start throwing some fat stacks at the S14 , shall we ?

○ Nothing special happened today , I've cleaned up my cars and changed the fluids on them , but thats besides the point.

○ I decided to "officially" start the S14 project. I've placed an order on a bodykit , and that bodykit is the Kouki S14 D-max kit !

○ The bodykit contains the front bumper , hood , sideskirts and the rear bumper. *LINK*

○ I dont know if this kit is meant to be wore by a showcar (thats my plan for the S14) but I think it will turn out good lookin'...

○ I can say that I really wanted the S14 to make it to the S-chassis meet , but its far away from being finished. It needs the bodykit , a good repaint , engine swapped , better looking wheels , big wang and overall more awesomeness...

○ I took 2 random pics just because I was bored , here they are :






○The garage looks E M P T Y , but I dont want to have too many builds going on at the same time. Maybe I'll buy a new ride if I can find a good offer , but for now , I need to ... well , this is gonna sound weird , but I have to purchase some things for the garage , because I want to live in it. All I need is a kitchen and a bathroom. Also , that couch turned out to be quite comfy to sleep on... :))

○ Anyway , thats all for now. I think I may be busy for the rest of the week because I need to find a job and all that...

○ See ya fellas around !

All about the S14...


○ Hey guys ! So , the D-max kit came in for the S14 and all I can say is that the car looks pretty good , but the car needs a repaint. Dont worry , I'll repaint the S14 soon...








○ Also , I've found some cheap fender flares for the car and I decided to buy them. I'd say they fit pretty good !

○ After mounting this kit on I decided to mess around with the suspension a bit to see if I can get the car more .... "hellaflush"





○ As you can see , I'm tuckin' tyre on the back , but I really enjoy the look of it. What do you guys think ?

○ I've ordered a pair of Advans for the S14. To be more exact , I ordered some TC IIs. Here's the site where I bought them from : *LINK* , the specs on them are 18"x10.5 ET 12+ in silver. I hope they'll look good on the car. They should arrive tommorow since I ordered them yesterday...

○ After I get some tyres mounted on the rims I'll probably send the car to the respray and after that I'll focus more on the engine.

○ I havent thought what I want to swap into the S14 , I'm maybe thinking about going 2J or maybe just modify the crap outta the SR20... or maybe , just maybe , go F22 swap. I'd really like to have VTEC on the S14 ... :P

○ Also , I've found myself a workplace ! I'm a mechanic at the local car repair shop. I'm really glad that I managed to find my first job in Japan !

○ Anyway , thats all for now. See ya guys around !

To be honest. That yellow on the grill and the wheels is a bit "disturbing" in my opinion. I also would use stretched tires. Right now it looks a bit offroadish.
The RPS looks good though!

We stretchin' !

○ Hey guys ! Sorry for not posting yesterday , I was kinda busy mounting the tyres for the new rims that came in. All I can say is that the tyres are S T R E T C H E D af. Here's some pics with the wheels on the car :







○ We're also tuckin tyre which looks amaizing with those new wheels...

○ Here's a more close up shot of how stretched the tyres are :



○ She's lookin good...



○ Right now I'm washing the car and after that I'll send it to paint later today. It should be done in about 3 days if I'm not mistaken.

○ The whole car is getting a repaint , even the calipers. It's gonna look sicc !

○ After the repaint I'll probably throw a wing on it , I'm not too sure yet though.

○ I've decided to keep the SR20 in the S14 just because right now I dont have enough money for an engine swap , but I am going to install a turbo on it. A top-mount turbo to be more exact. Hopefully I'll be able to finish the S14 'cuz right now , I'm kinda running low on money. Worst case scenario would be to sell the S13 to fuel the S14 project , but if any of you are interested in buying my S13 , just comment down below your offer. Maybe we can get something sorted out ;)

○ Anyway , thats all for now. I hope you guys are as stoked as I am to finish this S14.

○ See ya guys around !

Looks better! But I don't like that overfenders. They ruin the look of the bodykit. Well maybe it's nicer when it's painted in one colour.
The stretched tires- really nice. You should get some spacers for the rims, though

Lookin' fresh !
○ Hey guys , whats up ?

○ Sorry for not posting for a while , I didnt really have time to post anything , I was really busy these past 2 weeks...

○ Anyway , the S14 finally got repainted ! It's lookin' cool ! I also got a bunch of things from a friend of mine that passed by the shop earlier this week. He gave me a new wing for the S14 and a Top Secret S15 muffler. Lets talk more about the wing , the spoiler I'm running is a Carbon Varis Super Taykiu spoiler. It really changes the look of the car.

○ I'll stop teasing you guys now , here are some pics :









○ What do you guys think about the paint ? I dig it !

○ As I said , the car got fully repainted. Lets just say that I dropped about 1000V$ on it.

○ I also got a new head cover and a Weld spark plug cover. I paid about 200V$ for both. Here's a closer look :



○ And here's me doing a burnout :)



○ Well , here's the other news that I have. I wanna sell my S13 and my S14. I'm running kinda low on money and I'd like to buy something more ... JDM.

○ If any of you are interested in my cars , just hit me up. I'll post the car on the Used Cars thread too , so , check that out !

○ Anyway , thats all for now , I hope you guys enjoyed todays update !

○ See ya around !

○ Hey guys , I dont know if its even worth making such a small update , but I decided to not sell the S14 anymore.

○ The project isn't over yet so yeah, I want to do more things to the S14 , for example , I want to engine swap it , and thats why I'm selling my S13.


○I hope you guys understand what I'm saying. Anyway , thats all for now.


○See ya guys around !

Sorry , but I cant take apart the S13. You either buy it whole , or you dont buy it. I dont want to have an rolling chassis in my garage.

Traded?

○ Hey guys ! I did something...

○ So , let me do some explaining. A friend of mine blew his SR20 block on his daily car because of this turbo ( he ran too much boost ) and he decided to just sell pieces of the engine to whoever decides to buy them. With that being said , ofcourse I had no money and I asked him : "Waddaya think about my S13 ? You up for a trade ?" and he said "sure!" It was a great opportunity for him since his daily car blew up. So , after negotiating a bit I gave him the keys to the S13 and he quickly unbolted the turbo kit and gave me 4000V$. Sounds pretty good , eh ?

○ After I got to my garage it got really late , in fact I stayed up all night to do this:



○ Yep , I "boosted" the S14 , but its just a mock-up . The car needs a dyno tune and a boost controller. The turbo I'm running is some kind of Garrett but god damn , I think its gonna make some power.

○ I also needed to do some fabricating. Between the downpipe of the turbo and the muffler sits a straight pipe , and when I say straight pipe I mean just a straight pipe with absolutely no bends. I dont even know how loud the S14 will be , and at this point I think its not even street legal , but hey , shes gonna be a monster.

○ Quick pic of the booty:



○ Well , now that I've gotten rid of the 180 I can finally fuel the S14 project more. I'm kinda glad to have more money in my wallet now :P

○ Anyway , I'm really happy with how the situation turned out. I'd like to thank my friend for being such a nice fella and yeah , S14 is gettin more love.

○ So , thats about it for now. I need to find myself a boost controller and a dyno near me so I can tinker with my car. Here's a pic of the S14 with the hood on and the intercooler mounted :



○ God damn she's gorgeous... See ya guys around !

I'm back ! ;)
○ Hey guys , I'm back after 19 days of working like a mad man and I'm happy tell you that this summer will be absolutely LIT !
( more on that topic later in the update).

○ So , first of all, the S14 got a tune about 2 weeks ago , and its going strong ! I've even put it on the dyno and I'd say that it has some power. Not over 1000 hp but still , it packs a punch. Here's some pics from the dyno :





○ Yep , 341 hp and 243 lb-ft of torque. I've been running it at 22 psi on the turbo , and I could go for more , but I dont think the internals would hold up. Anyway , this is enough power for a daily car.

○ And just to be safe , I installed a Mishimoto radiator and an Mishimoto intercooler. Gotta keep them horses cool , here's some pics :





○ I paid 280 V$ for the radiator and 275 V$ for the intercooler. I'd say that this was a good purchase.

○ Anyways , enough about the S14 , this is not what the update is about. I am happy to present you my ...

-Summer Project Car !!!-

○ Well , first of all , I am so lucky to have this thing , its not even funny.

○ I got myself a 1994 Toyota Supra Mk IV !!!

○ Here's a walkaround of the car , it may look like a piece of crap , but thats why I bought it !











○ Well , this car has a ton of backstory to it so allow me to tell you the whole life of this poor thing.

○ So , back in 1994 , my friend bought this brand new Supra. He used it as a daily car for about 2 years , when , in 1996 this car got totally thrashed. He was the victim of a really bad accident. He got hit by a drunk driver going about 120 Km/h in an intersection. That guy was driving an R32 GT-R and still , to this day , that R32 hasnt been seen since. If you look at the pictures above , you'll see that the whole left side of the car is crashed , but luckly , theres almost no damage to the chassis. After 1 month of staying in the hospital , my friend decided to store this car in his back yard for the rest of its life. At the time he didnt have enough money to fix it so he just left it there. Keep in mind that this car hasn't moved since 1996 when it was crashed into. Now , my friend passed me this car because he had to move and he needed to get rid of the car. Long story short , I bought this for about 3000V$. There's so much work needed to restore this car , and thats why I decided to buy it. This is my summer project car. Hopefully , I'll be able to get it running this summer... :D

○ Well , lets pop the hood and see whats beneath it...



○ Hah , 2JZ no shit ! Its a GTE but too bad it doesnt even start. ( I think everybody expected this refference... :)) )

○ And what's in the trunk ? Lets see here...



○ I barely opened the trunk and my god , I nearly choked because of the dust. There's dust everywhere !

○ It seems that my friend saved the left headlight , left taillight and the left side skirt , though , the side skirt looks to be bent to hell.

○ After looking more at the car , I think I'll have to strip it down to the chassis , clean everything , maybe even buy new parts and stuff. Also , my friend also warned me that theres several rat nests in the interior. This is going to be fun ! Not....

○ I'll also need to remove all the rust , rebuild the engine ... *2 minutes later* ... and overall , rebuild the whole thing. It's gonna be a lot of work , but I'll do it. If any of you want to help , you're welcomed to come , but I dont think anyone would want to work on this rat infested junk car.

○ So , yeah , thats all for now , sorry for the inactivity , and I'm pretty hyped on this car. I hope you guys are too , see y'all around !!!

Nani ? Ebisu dorifto car ?

○ Hey guys ! What is up ?

○ So , I did some things yesterday. One of them was to sell my house in San Diego. It was quite a hard decision to make since thats where I lived and eventually , I wanted to go back , but the Japan life is just so nice , I dont want to leave this place , and in the middle of the night , a friend of mine called. He asked if he could buy my house and keep in mind , I didnt move any furniture or anything out of the house so its a fully furnitured house. So , we talked about 2 hours and he made an offer of 30000V$. It was quite a low price for a San Diego house , shits expensive over there and I said yes. I told him where I left my keys and the documents of the house and he sent me the money.

○ Now , I want to clarify something. I sold the house because it seems that I'm always out of money and with the Supra project starting I need money for parts and all of that , BUT , I need to be more careful with the money , I dont wanna blow them all on a car so yeah.

○ Talking about cars , I saw that Mr. Stances auction didnt go very well and I decided to buy a car he was offering.I dropped by his shop this morning and I bought his 180sx !







○ Its pretty much all stock , but it has a 5 lug conversion on it , and as you can see , it sits on some S14 rims. It even has the stock trim on the body ! I've been inspecting this car all morning and Mr. Stance took really good care of it. Here are some pics of the interior :









○ Stock and clean as a newborn baby ! Here's the engine bay :




○ Stock SR20DET blacktop. It should be enough for what I'm going to use it for. If you read the title , you probably know what my plans for this car will be. I'm going to use it as an Ebisu drift car , because I sold my drift car a while ago and I need a car to drift with in the summer. Some of you are probaly going to think that I'm going to ruin this perfect 180sx but hey , I'll try to take good care of it.

○ Mr. Stance asked for 4200V$ and for how clean and well mentained the car is , I'd say that this purchase was 100% worth it !

○ Anyways , lets move on to the Supra , or the Poopra as I like to call it. This thing stinks because it's full of mouse crap. God , stripping this thing down is going to be one heck of a disgusting task...

○ I took the bent body panels off and thats about it. The left door is bend really hard so I'll have to get another one , same goes with the front bumper and the left sideskirt. Here's some pics :



○ Look how hard the door got bent ! Wow...






○ Next up on the list is the interior. Should I try and clean the interior pieces or should I buy new ones ? For now , I'll try and clean the seats and see how they look and smell and if it doesnt work out , then I'll buy new interior parts...



○ Well , thats pretty much all I did on the Supra for now. I dont want to rush it too much , because I want it to be perfect .

○ So yeah , thats pretty much all that happened today.

○ I'm just gonna chill for the rest of the day so I'll be on VStanced all day.

○ Dont forget to stay stoked and I'll see y'all around !

Yep , but first I have to do a lot more stuff. Wiring will probably be one of the last things I do on this car because I have to strip the car down to the bare chassis clean it , rebuild the engine , put the interior back .... It's gonna take a while until I get to the wiring :D ;)

○ Now , I want to clarify something. I sold the house because it seems that I'm always out of money and with the Supra project starting I need money for parts and all of that , BUT , I need to be more careful with the money , I dont wanna blow them all on a car so yeah.

○ Talking about cars , I saw that Mr. Stances auction didnt go very well and I decided to buy a car he was offering.I dropped by his shop this morning and I bought his 180sx !







○ Its pretty much all stock , but it has a 5 lug conversion on it , and as you can see , it sits on some S14 rims. It even has the stock trim on the body ! I've been inspecting this car all morning and Mr. Stance took really good care of it. Here are some pics of the interior :









○ Stock and clean as a newborn baby ! Here's the engine bay :




○ Stock SR20DET blacktop. It should be enough for what I'm going to use it for. If you read the title , you probably know what my plans for this car will be. I'm going to use it as an Ebisu drift car , because I sold my drift car a while ago and I need a car to drift with in the summer. Some of you are probaly going to think that I'm going to ruin this perfect 180sx but hey , I'll try to take good care of it.

○ Mr. Stance asked for 4200V$ and for how clean and well mentained the car is , I'd say that this purchase was 100% worth it !

○ Anyways , lets move on to the Supra , or the Poopra as I like to call it. This thing stinks because it's full of mouse crap. God , stripping this thing down is going to be one heck of a disgusting task...

○ I took the bent body panels off and thats about it. The left door is bend really hard so I'll have to get another one , same goes with the front bumper and the left sideskirt. Here's some pics :



○ Look how hard the door got bent ! Wow...






○ Next up on the list is the interior. Should I try and clean the interior pieces or should I buy new ones ? For now , I'll try and clean the seats and see how they look and smell and if it doesnt work out , then I'll buy new interior parts...



○ Well , thats pretty much all I did on the Supra for now. I dont want to rush it too much , because I want it to be perfect .

○ So yeah , thats pretty much all that happened today.

○ I'm just gonna chill for the rest of the day so I'll be on VStanced all day.

○ Dont forget to stay stoked and I'll see y'all around !


Thanks to you mane ! , This car was from a friend of the university, who offered to exchange it for my E90 Bmw 323i, I did the basic maintenance so that it works well

The only detail is that the paint is a little worn, but with a polish, or in worst case a little sanding and a clear coat and it would look good.
It is a very good example of a 180sx.

(oorp: The car is silver gray, not white, lol)

Added 40 seconds later:

Take care of it...

Clean and fresh lookin'...
○ Hey guys ! Whats up ?


○ So , today I did some more things on the Poopra. I took out the front seats and the rear seat and all the junk out .







○ Looks like someone forgot their kicks under the front left seat...

○ So the seats were quite dirty and full of 22 year old dust and mouse crap , but somehow I managed to clean them and they dont stink anymore ! Thank god I was able to restore those , new ones cost hundreds of dollars .... Here are some pics :







○ I've washed them with some bleach and after about 2 hours they look much better now and they smell like lavender.

○ So , tommorow I'll take the carpet and the console out and clean them good , and maybe after that vacuum the interior to get rid of all the mouse poop.

○ Anyways , I've also put the 180sx on the lift to see how it looks underneath. It has a little bit of rust here and there but its fixable.

○ In the weekend I'll take the 180 to Ebisu for a spin. I cant wait to see how it performs , though , I dont know how I'll drift with an open diff. Gonna have to weld that on Friday before I go to Ebisu.

○ Here are some pics of the 180 :





○ About the engine mods... I dont know yet. I just want to keep it as reliable as possible.

○ I really hope I wont run into issues at Ebisu , because right now , were chillin with a completely stock SR. I really hope this thing wont overheat , because the radiator is bone stock.



○ Also , I need to get a bunch more spare wheels , because I want to be at Ebisu all day and I guess I'll have to use some old wheels that I got... maybe I could take the rims that the S14 came with...

○ Anyways , thats all for now , I cant wait for the weekend to come. I'll see ya guys around !

SR20 are very sensitive overheat damage, you need grab upgrade radiator as that high recommended. Kept eye water temperature as well.

Alright ! Thanks for telling me ! For now , I want to see how the car performs completely stock , and if it overheats I'll get a better radiator.

Just don't let water temp over middle point also it have poor oil lubrication system, upgraded oil sump will fix this problem.
