GOOD LORD A GT-FOUR! a Carlos Sainz edition too!
(Even though i work at Nismo, im still a sucker for most Toyota enthusiast cars, and the Celica is definitely no exception! ) Can't wait to see some tasteful mods on the thing already. Some Fifteen52 Tarmacs along with proper lowering (if you're keeping it a street car/track car) should have it looking like a charm |

More doors more Whores...So even after owning 5 cars i realized i had a problem hauling passengers because first there was always some that never ran and more than half were caged (s13,s14, and supra), one was half caged but didn't ran (AE86) and the only lasting was very poor in cargo and rear seat Space (St185). So being the Carcaine junkie i am i did the reasonable and went Shopping, Some of you may see me talking to BigSmoke in his RP that i was looking for an ER34 that he bought first since i already had the interest i went looking for an ER34 again.
Ended up buying this beautiful 1999 aero manual with only 16.866 Km's the car was perfect only consumed by the time like the yellow headlights and worn suspension but looked flawless. it was amazing seeing a car with such low use and by a very good price $ 4.400 considering thats it has a Rb25DET Neo and its a manual wnd the car handles great but at the end still is a 20-year-old sedan Obviously, I couldn't keep it stock so yeah as the original tires were expired i switched to r33 Stockies with advans that i had also fabricated an exhaust with some leftover titanium for it as for now these are the only changes but soon ill mess to make this rb a little happier |

Purple Boi...As big as my love for Sedans is we all gotta agree the r34 was looking hella boring so I had to do something about it and after some time scoping I grabbed some parts fabbed some more to make the r34 look sick it wasn't that hard but oh boi the result is amazing just look at it
(spoiler it's not complete) Let's start with the exterior... Pretty sure everyone can see the Z-tune Kit that I got from a friend of mine for 1k, yeah it lacks the rear fenders but I really don't care since the tires already fit fitting it wasn't difficult only minor trimming and bodywork and boom mean +100 Also, another exterior update was the Work meister's that I bought the specs are 19x10 front and 19x12 on the rear so yeah I needed to figure the offset to clear the massive rubber that this puppy so the final price for the wheels was $2000 on the rear, the only Big change was the bumper Since the Aero came with the gt-r wing already but there are two things that have been bothering me first the muffler is too small for Japan and the Lights look kinda dull kinda wanna go for LED's Just look at how beastly this Thing Looks from the Front gotta say I'm in love with it imagine this pulling up on your back at the wangan I would move LoL Ofc I wouldn't let the engine stock... but for your disappointment, it isn't an Rb26 But the S14 will be and that's where I got the turbos From but Ofc I wouldn't just lug they in So they received full billet wheels and porting and a New header that converted they from parallel to sequential before you say that this is gonna give me backpressure remember that it has a full exhaust made so the only backpressure is caused by the turbine's. For the sake of look's I got rb26 valve and belt covers and fabbed a Plenum for it since I was already into it now I'm running it pretty conservatively on low boost and it already feels amazing hitting full boost at 2000 rpm and not dipping boost over 7K also got used Tomei Cams for it so I can spin this baby more going for over 8000 when it gets tuned But power isn't nothing without proper suspension and OFC I was hooked up with my Standard package from tein but went with a Slightly less aggressive setup since its a daily also got into the CNC to make some custom adjustable arms and shortened knuckles since ill be hitting the track also gotta say the fitment is pretty sick looking at the final result and the color Is midnight purple but when I tool these pictures I had only the single stage basecoat done so that's why he looks odd but the pearl is already done and ill be spraying it soon . |

Z-tune kit means an instant seal of approval from me!
Also yay for the Tomei cams! I used these on my Evo and they worked so heavenly So it's going to be a Wangan build? I'd imagine people seeing it as another R34.....before getting surprised over the fact it's a sedan instead of a coupe Also would be a nice tool to entertain/scare passengers on the run |

# DEADMANE : Awesome thanks! And the car is looking way better now man yeah it is but there's lacking some paint when it gets pinkier a little it will be even better # BigSmoke : Z-tune kit means an instant seal of approval from me! Tomei's are great for dailies smooth idle and pretty consistent powerband especially with them twins Nah i already have the supra for wangan but maybe since it's going to be a daily and all-rounder but wangan requires lot more hp than this engine can produce and would be useful for its use # Buzzsaw : Damn, midnight purple will be looking good and is it Tomei dahh cam, I'm a fan of them of the company, I should buying them for my Supra. I have HKS one's on mine but it's a VVT-i but cams without head work are kinda limited because you usually dont use all the flow you can get |

Introducing StupidZ...Ok so after building so much nice looking and carefully built cars i really started feeling a hole in my garage (thank not is not my wallet) and the hole was as stupid as it sounds. A stupid thing that i could take to bash as much as i want So my next stop at the next day was junkyard.
Knowing the owner of the junkyard i already knew what i was going to get Simple easy to build but uncommon combo a Z33 and something some may find weird a Vh41 but why actually quite simple i just wanna 8500Rpm Big turbo 700hp V8 yes that my friccking goal For now it's already with suspension Fully done just basic super Slammed Tein Super Drift's because that thing is gonna be SLAMMED this really is just gonna be my F it Just send it build next step is mounting the engine. aslo random 34 pic because he looks good |

Yap carcaine addiction kicks in again
Not a bad thing tho, Z33 is tuner bae indeed, almost bought myself one before switching to S15 for TA purposes If you're indeed going to fit a VH or even a VK inside, you're officially the equivalent of Chris Forsberg here in the forums I love VK series for it's racing usage along it's lifetime, particularly in endurance racing Good luck for the project man! |

# BigSmoke : Yap carcaine addiction kicks in again Ure the z33 is bae for tunning/drifiting also yeah im kinda the forum forsberg wannabe now, yes it really's gonna be a v8 but a VH not a VK especially since its a oversquare lightweight forged engine and the only thing i may lose is some torque but since imma slap a trbski to it ill replace the low torque with 8000 rpm+ revs and boost since vh's hold reliable 700+hp # RocketBunnyS13 : ER34 looking damn fine! And VH41 in a Z33 is gonna be RAD. Just the literal sound of the thing is gonna be GREAT hell yeah i really love hearing my partners straight piped laurel |

Money is the entrance to Stupidity...So lets start by saying that the Celica is gone long story short I sold it to a collector for 25k considering I gathered all the history and data I could of the car it was fair (SAUCE *LINK* ) but he also paid another 15 grand for a full restoration and tuning of the car and honestly when I was done I really wanted to keep it because it was so much better and I was going to leave the AWD club leaving ol Big Smoke almost alone but wait, 40 grand I could spend getting my dream car...
A FUCKIN GTR BITCHES So after scoping for cheap bnr32's, I got between these: *LINK* *LINK* *LINK* Long story short the last was my favorite but the guy didn't want to negotiate and actually wanted more than the listed so I went to ask for the first when I realized the second was a repaired one the guys at JDM expo were amazing and understanding that I wanted a stock one they sold the car for 16.500 bucks + gave me all the missing OEM parts they had Anyway here's my new GT-R Also went on to buy a HOTBOI project got it for 5.5 K *LINK* P.S: Sorry for the lack of updates is just that becoming an automotive engineer IRL is way harder than I tough so I'm not being able to write that much or to play but at least I'm trying to keep commenting on you guys topics. |

Now this is AWD greatness! I'm sure everyone wants one badly as well, but with price rocketing sky high these days, it's rather hard to find one in immaculate, clean condition. Cangrats for the purcjhase man |

# BigSmoke : BOI A BNR32 The prices definitely went through the ceiling I remember back in the day when Phonexius had it's 1000 hp R32 looking for the ones around 9/11 grand and thinking it was ridiculous. Well look at me now, Also if I get the chance(and if redcardriver drops the r33) I'll get an r33 soon because they are still clear of the Us import hype (R32) and Paul Walker Hype (r34). And oh yes this is a car to be deserved such a nice little thing to drive around. When you come back from murica ill give you a ride. # Asahi : OMG That's Hot oh thats HOT |

EPIC NO DOUBLE EPIC...Well as a normal story let's start from the beginning... Yesterday I was cooking some ramen listening to some AM when my phone started ringing Tokyo Drift Knowing well who it was the conversation began...
"Hi Nagata-san" "Hey Enzo How are you and The shop Going" "I'm pretty fine, and the shop is good full of customers" "Good Good, Actually called because I need a lift" "That's weird what about your's 1000hp Rides" "Actually I need your help on something" "Oh Sure do you want me to pick you up at the shop" "No, I'll meet you at the Shinkansen station at 13 P.M" "Great ill be there" Well if Smokey Invited me to something it's gonna be something good. But since we agreed to meet at 13:00 but since I'm a stupid Foreigner I got there 12:55 but actually I kinda got too excited with the GT-R and shaved some time too so I took some time and snapped some pics of the R32 at the same place of the R34 13:02 Smokey arrived. When I Asked Where we were going He told me we were visiting Kei Miura's shop at that moment I was like OH BOI this is gonna be EPIC. After an hour and a half of driving, we agreed on a Snack break which meant MORE GT-R Pics After a Snack and a couple more driving we arrived at kei's shop. They were both building something special and smokey asked me to give some points about chassis and supension. But then Something awesome happened after we discussed some things of the build i glanced Kei going arround and arround the R32 he seemed pretty intrigued then he said Kei: "That's a Very clean R32 you got" Me pretty flattered: "Thanks just got it last week was quite a find" Kei Again: "Indeed is very rare to see good stock ones around" Me falling into his game: "Yes i actually asked for some of the stock parts that were missing" Kei Doing what he was preparing me: "How about we Widebody this car seems like a good base and i actually have only one pandem of these in japan" Me EXCITED AF "well im kinda wanna keep it stock but would be an honor to work with you" Kei "Let's do It like this I'll give you the kit and help you fit it and Smokey can help you with some engine parts how about" After seeing Smokey clearly agreeing in the back Me almost having a heart attack: "Im honrored that you are giving me this oprtunity so lets build this baby" We actually talked a lot more this is just the important parts Pic at Kei's shop without showing what he's working because he asked. GUYS GUYYYYYYS CAN you believe because i cant two of the most legendary Japanese tuner's decided to help me build one car of mine (yeah i worked and built engines for Top Secret) But this is a Whole new level i just can't say more than EPIC. Added 1 minute later: # Lagano : Hey look a fellow R32 GTR here! That was a nice find looking at how the prices are rising lately. Hello there fellow GT-R Owner yeah it was a find as even smokey and Kei said This post was edited by Sleepin mOnkey (2019-05-04 19:20, ago) |

<<< GUESS WHO'S BACK >>>Yes it's me Sleepy the guy that probably some of you forgot (i hope not tho) Jokes aside buckle UP because it's Storytime.
Just to give some directions turned out middle r32 build I realized I stopped building and buying cars because liked but as something else that I can't even explain but it just wasn't something I wanted to keep ongoing. So after talking to Smokey and Kei which I was working at the time, they both told me that the best was to take some time out because if not I was going to snap some time (still extremely gratefull by this advice). But at that time the r32 was pretty much almost done so I decided to finish what they put so much personal time into and finish. Gladly knowing i had lost my interest in the gtr Kei got me in touch with a guy from Dubai Who wanted a BNR 32 and after we met and I took it for some places to stretch the potential of the beast we created *NOTE I may have gone a little too much and pushed that car over 330 on the Wangan* he loved It and offered whopping 50.000 dollars for the car. even tho it was personal and they worked as friends I couldn't hold but giving 10.000 for each one of the guys as a sign of gratitude and used another 10 grand to Finish all the payments of my shop. After that, I decided to repurpose or sell a lot of cars I had the Ae86 was Kept as a track toy and shop showroom Car. The Z pro-Spec chassis was sold for 2000 bucks. Jade got an Sr20 and was exported to America for 16 Grand. the Altezza that I was yet to mention I detailed and sold it for 5000 bucks. the Er34 was sold for a guy that I met at Kei's Shop for 7.000 without the wheels tho. The Terminator I decided to Lend it to My brother For a while but as long as he doesn't fuck the car I don't care and I from time to time take it for a joyride at Suzuka even tho it is sitting NA By now so my Lil student brother can save some Fuel. So If you Are a freak that keeps tracks of my Cars you should realize that I haven't brought up Neither the S13 or the Supra. Well that's because those are the ones that I just couldn't get rid of the s13 is such a well done and dialed daily and is simply a beauty the way she Sits (I mean She's in almost all of the screens I use IRL) The supra in the other hand I'm actually sparing it for a makeover Soon but I can't really figure the styling I want to go with it. after a brief mention of the cars I kept I now better get to what I did in this Time. I decided to take a little Vacation and go Drive around Japan and explore some places both car-related and not for this Time the shop kept going doing its regular thing and a crazy build now and then which I messed for some time if I had the wish to do it but most of the time I relied on the guys who were amazing (or it was the extra 10% cut on the profits I gave Lol). After my Exploring, I went on to work as a driving teacher at my friends High-performance Driving School (the one that I let use my old Cedric) Yeah Life was Going Smooth since I had some spare cash and I wasn't too overwhelmed by deadlines I had a real blast this time but also got a little Sad because I had lost the wish to build any other cars ( the one's I Kept I just didn't need to improve anything big) So i was kinda missing on something so one day me and friend went to an Old Racecar graveyard with some guys that were on the 3 week program where we go from choosing the car fixing and driving it while touring the junkyard I saw an old rag moving till it flew off revealing a USDM convertible S13 at that moment I knew I had found my next build. "the last rps pic tho" So Instead of ripping it all up and rebuilding it I decided to go the same process as our students to be some kind of example to them and after lots of used parts, hammers, rattle cans, welders and Junkyard trips I threw this together in a week and a half and honestly when I sat and looked it I couldn't be happier Yes, This is the POS that gave me the will to build cars once again and I gotta say it is such an amazing car for what I built it with (and the fenders were fine till I went on a 5 car tandem). I mean Yeah it looks Stupid Af and like a big pile of Junk but when you go Up close its a very nice little Piece of shit that if you use correctly can put a HUGE ASS smile on your ugly ass face I mean it's nothing more than a pile of Scrap parts a crippled engine some weird-ass german wheels and Neon Rattle can paint but is just enough to be amazing and a real neck breaker (even tho most people should be wondering what in gods earth is this). Well, a Na Sr a pushing almost 200 through a welded diff and a 6-speed trans is more than enough for you to party as much as you want. I meant there's nothing special in this just the right amount of crappiness to create something amazing And from all the moments this car gave me the best still was when some girls asked why i was photo shooting such a bad car (that was after I ripped the hood because it broke) I Just turned and Said " Well it's because I Love It" then they laughed and maybe left thinking I was freak but fuck it, At least I have a pink big ass piece of a very nice SHIT.

Heeeey man it's been a while indeed!
I'm quite glad to see you're being a wealthy and happy man! Kinda gutted to see the cars going away but glad that some of your best builds and the Mustang(well, technically) is still on your garage as well. And also VERT S13 GANG! You might remember that I got myself an S13 vert back in the USA, and oh boy it's now changed a lot. And I love yours as well, since it's quite unique in a good way and serves a noble purpose as a HPDE/HPDS learning tool and a missile of some sorts. I would definitely ride in it! |

Welcome back that S13 vert looks like a fun little missile! Especially with that ITB SR20 screaming in front of you haha. Can't wait to see some more updates on your other builds too.

# BigSmoke : Heeeey man it's been a while indeed! Definitely, a while since I posted last time. yeah but most the ones I let go weren't being used and I had lost the spark for them so it was better to send them somewhere they could be enjoyed as well as for the stang my brother says that he just needs some money and will give it back and I think that may happen soon. Heck yeah vert gang don't even know how it got in japan tho but at least it still had the registration, But I kinda bought it as a personal project and his service was more ridealongs than anything but a lot of people learned to the trash in it for sure. Feel free to come and ride but bring your vert so we can snap some pics. # Lagano : Welcome back that S13 vert looks like a fun little missile! Especially with that ITB SR20 screaming in front of you haha. Can't wait to see some more updates on your other builds too. It definitely is a very funny missile and itb's with Shako blastpipes oh boy does this thing Scream the other builds that weren't sold are the same maybe ill post something on the yotas soon tho. # RocketBunnyS13 : Ayyy an SR20DE with ITBs, fun to thrash for sure! It definitely is fun to trash even with its enormous 190 hp |

HOTBOI CHRONICLES...Yeah the Newest Project Was presented for you guys last post but sadly a little after that as I was heading to an event there was a mishap on the SR I looked at the oil and it was turning slightly brown but very little so yeah as we know head gaskets went cracking so no tandem slaying on the vert that day but hey at least i can take the engine out for some improvements since I still have a full shop and tons of spare Sr parts
But instead of boring you with engine work pics and that Bullshit just rather make a paragraph with some nice photoshoot at the background. First of all i did a very aggressive porting on all the head and exhaust raising the flow from the 240 Cfm stock to astounding 310 Cfm which meant a shit ton of powerband gains than I got a spare Neo-vvl 272 cam for it, a high pressure oil pump, a custom baffled oil pan, Walbro 255 pump, Hks injectors and to top it off I lower the head 1,5mm raising the compression to around 13.5 to 1 and built the bottom end with 4340 rods and pistons. And the best part is at the end i didn't spend any money since they were all leftovers from the shop but as usual, i had to add a harness and a Standalone so adding e85 8500 Rpms and boom we have a 230hp NA SR20 so be ready spooly boys because those itbs are ready to SCREAM. So then I turned my attention to the Styling department of the build by a quick visit to Everyone's Favorite UP-Garage I got a pretty sexy set of Oni-oni's for 600 Not bad even for a 15x10 also got z33 Brembo's and 2pot rears and a set of ganador mirrors adding another 600 bucks. But hey a 90's styled Drift car isn't only flashy paint and 3 spoke wheels I needed more so I started changing from the mid-2000's Gtr wing to a kinda Bosozoku Drag Style Wing that I think makes the look of the car way sleeker, especially with the added drop. And then to get that extra Bosozoku flare i wanted I bought an English wheel from a very old man who had got a newer one for its Bodyshop but the guy was so nice that he agreed to came to my shop and actually taught me a lot and helped me make those amazing metal flares you see which I am very grateful for it. I mean Like the real pleasure of living in Japan is this even tho there is a lot of people that mastered a lot of skills that they make their life of they still offer to teach you the details of it so you can keep the manual art alive and I mean Shaping metal fenders is way more of an art than you can expect . |
