Basic maintenance day! Changed the oil, topped up the windshield washer fluid, replaced the pads, all in all a 20,000yen job said and done.





Really tempted to throw some boost at it, but this thing is so perfect in stock form just like my Nismo Z..and I've already fucked up my other 'daily drivers', Z went full drift car with fully adjustable suspension and angle kit, and the S15 received the full S13 Tomei SR22VET swap..maybe I'll keep this car simple..maybe not.



Finances
$26,005 - $200 = $25,805


Yeah man, keep it NA and just build the engine. I made about 265HP in my Cressida, all motor, the engine was full race spec, so if you need any help with building 3SGE just contact me, you can read about my engine here - X30 Build

Thanks dude! I read about that when you built it, big fan.
I currently have the Supra apart - I really want to build it into an Orido style street car but I'm also trying to finish my RB25 so there's that..

That being said, I threw the wheels from the Supra onto the Z and golly me they look fantastic!

thanks guys!! i'm very pleased with the way the Z looks on Meisters.
I've been away this past week, slowly building the RB25DET for my S13, and I finally finished it earlier today!



Garrett GTX3076R high mount manifold, ported and polished head, SARD 850cc injectors, ARP head studs, N1 oil pump, Koyorad cooling, HKS F-Con engine management, Greddy intake manifold w/ Q45 throttle body, Greddy front mount kit, Greddy oil cooler, threw all the basic works on it and I'm excited to break in the motor and run it on the dyno. Should be comfortably pushing 450 wheel.





also fresh VS-KF's from the boys across the pond at VRWheels!



Finances

$25,805 + $3300 = $29,105
$29,105 - $2200 (VSKF's) = $27,305

thanks dudes :-X i always strive to build cool looking cars and I'm glad people like them.
It's been a full two months since I've logged off but I've been making some moves, most notably, with my Supra.



Previously, was a simple street car, slammed on coils, wheels, OEM aero, one and done. However Big Boss opened up a new vStanced garage so I thought, why not hand my car over to them to help me make a fantasy a reality?



Stripped, cleaned up, rustproofed, all the things I should've done when I bought the car.







And did they deliver on the bodywork. Full Ridox front and sides - no widebody cause I wanted to stay stock body, finished with a Top Secret carbon diffuser and wing. Also threw on a set of Advan RS's measuring 18x9.5j ET+22, which is perfect fit wrapped around these Advan Neova AD08's. When I have more money, I think I'm going to go single turbo and build a mild/high power JZ setup. I'd be lying if I said this car wasn't inspired by Orido's red JZA80.

And as for the other major change, my ZN6.



Let's just say, I had a bit of an accident at Meihan Sportsland that involved a wall. Completely destroyed my front left suspension, ruined most of my aero including my custom BN skirts and Chargespeed bumper, and tore my Varis rear bumper in half. It sat for a while at the Cooldown house in pieces until I decided what to do with it.





I thought instead of just letting it sit like Ismael let (and still lets) his S14 sit in the backyard taking up space, I decided to go back to the basics and threw on my OEM aero that I once had on the car. vStanced Garage took care of the bodywork damage and restored the battered car to its OEM glory, and then sprayed it an OEM JZZ30 colour (I forget the exact colour combo).





I rebuilt one of my old sets of G7's and powdercoated the faces gunmetal, measuring 17x10.5 front and rear. I figured I didn't really drive it much because I was running 600,000yen worth of aero, and I really missed the feeling of a true shakotan car so I adjusted the suspension and properly sat it down. This isn't to say I won't drift it anymore, rather, I'm going to street drift the shit out of this car now that I'm happy with the simple street car aesthetic :)



And third car I'll write a quick update about, my XE10 Altezza -





Nothing really much to say, other than my new iForce FD50S (18x10 +20 squared), lowering it more, and my cleared taillights. God I wish I could actually keep a daily driver stock for more than a week.

Shame on me for not taking more progress pics! As for the other cars, that'll be for a seperate update because I'm too lazy to update everything right now. Still need to work out my financial statement.

Ahh, that Supra is mean as fuck #MackayApproves, now you and Soju are killing the Supra scene here, I am sure that Crazy88' will join you guys too sometime in the future with his build. Also is it me, or the grey color on cars became a fucking trend in 2018 ? Inb4 I wrap our F11 in Nardo Grey haha. Anyways, your ZN6 is beautiful, I like it even more than before for sure. Glad to see you back man, Og's are returning haha.

Good to see you back! Nice work with your Supra, still looking subtle, not as much as before but it looks good anyway. 86 looked better before but it's good to go back to stock sometimes, old school wheels look kinda weird on it but i like weird lol, it makes a car special. Altezza looks super clean too! All 3 are grey and white now, one of those could be more colorful, don't you think? :P

(I should update too, it's been too long!!)

thank you dude! hahaha I might respray the Supra sometime in the near future, we shall see. I love Nardo Grey, you should do it! And I'm way happier with my 86 now that its just a simple machine. Thanks ! !

Don't worry!! I'm not a fan of just dull colours, and my 180SX is still blue :P I guess the 86 before was more wild, but rarely got seat time because I was too worried I would destroy the super expensive aero. Not to mention, I had a wreck and destroyed a lot of the bodywork. It's definitely a vibe to get used to. Thanks for the words though!
Ahh yes I can't forget to update my baby, my RPS13. Looked like this for a good while -



My dumbass smashed the BN Sports bumper in half so I ran a Hot Road for a little while, and had to buy a new fender (which I still haven't painted). Also left a nasty dent in the door so I had to pick up a spare one recently.



As it sits now -





I haven't really done anything major to it other than swap out the Type X wing for a Uras Monkey Magic, and switching over to my Minervas and running a set of spare Battles while I build a set of 17" Minervas for the front. It's weird because this car is the one that's been working the most reliably and I've been logging so much seat time in this car which is crazy because usually this car throws me the most issues. I have some ideas for this car, namely paint match, but I'm not really sure where I want to take this car.

On a side note, anyone want to sell me an S15 SR20DET? ;)

Damn, S13 getting nicely. Here hint about S15 SR20DET, if that came with gearbox then kept eyes out with common failure gearbox because S15 6 speed gearbox more weaker than S14 or S13 5 speed gearbox. That guy will explain Click here!.

I've read up on the S15 6spd gearboxes and if I were to go with an S15 SR20DET I would probably run a CD009 or something along the lines of that.

And to update on the S15....nothing really much hahaha except stepping down to 17 inch Regamasters instead so I could go lower.





I'm currently on vacation in the States right now, in Portland, Oregon, and for a rental car, I have this -





Someone stop me before I try to buy one and import it back to Japan with me because these cars are so damn cool!!!

BOIII I can't even BEGIN to explain how consistently hot your rides are, and how much hotter they get with each and every update <3. Oh yeah, I just hatched this (insane?) idea lol. What if, you swap the JZ from le ZN6 to le JZA80, and then sell JZA80's JZ, and get back to the ZN6's roots with a boxer engine street car (FA20/EJ20/25 whatevs). Still, good luck with everything!

Ily <3 hmmmm. I mean I want to do a mid power 2JZ build on the A80, and keep the 1JZ from the 86 on the side as a spare motor and drop something like an S15 SR20DET in it to have a cool street machine that's relatively easy to work on. but we will see!!
I put my Altezza up for sale locally! If anyone wants to buy my car on some random wheels and with all the parts I've put on, its up for sale for 700,000yen as I have a new car to replace it..





As it sits now for sale! I have a potential buyer, but we will see.

As for the new car..





Feels good to be finally behind the wheel of a JZX90 Mark II Tourer V. Completely unmolested example, 86,000km, and its absolutely mint. 1JZ-GTE, LSD, all the works. I'll write up a full financial statement and description when I'm not piss drunk like right now hahahaha. Here's a photo of it at vStanced Garage getting a full inspection before swapping my plates from my Altezza over.

FOR NOW the X90 stays as a daily hahaha.. you know how that goes..always. I never keep up with what other people do, I'm super busy lately doing my own thing haha. Four door meet tho? Count me in.
# Lagano : That's a clean example you got! I suppose it's an automatic so keep it as a daily, you could make some subtle changes on it like on your Altezza.

# radcoon : Aas man that Altezza... Nice X90
thanks! altezza is no longer with me though :(
# RocketBunnyS13 : AYYY X90! Daily or P R O J E C T ?
why not BOTH
JZX90

I mean, of course, this was bound to happen. 326power Chakuriki GT+S coilovers, my go-to choice, and I have ordered Serial9 extended LCA's for the front, as well as poly bushings for most of the suspension.





Hovercraft fitment is wack so..





T! 7! R! 260,000yen brand new from Work Wheels Japan. 18x9.5j +15. Can't wait to throw on my LCA's and lower profile tires so I can go lower and have some
more camber all around.

Z33

This car serves as my 'nice' street car because of how comfortable it is to drive in compared to my other cars. But nothing much has really changed, other than I straight traded the Works for a set of GT-R fitment LMGT4's.
