# CALLmeSCOOBY : E28 BuildSick build so far. I'm looking forward to it's completion. Updates on the BRZ- I picked up a Stivo ducktail wing off of ebay for a total of $275,which is $15 less than it's price on the website. The best thing is that it's in the OEM Blue colour so it matches the BRZ spot on. Check it out-  A lovely investment. |

Looks nice Shaforostov. What all kind of plans do you have for the BRZ?
@JDMSly, I've been wanting to do a V6 swap, and I thought slamming a twin turbo 350Z engine into one would be pretty cool. I planned on making it a drag car actually. This post was edited by dxg1997 (2015-04-08 00:21, ago) |

3 Months Later...
In the last 3 months, A lot of things happended; I sold My RX-8, Someone stole my 240sx 1JZ (It's Wrecked/Salvage/Dead) And I am saving Money for My Silvia S15 Spec-R Build
 As you maybe saw the Pic, My parents help me In a Difficult decision, They convince me to Return to school, and I finally got My Diplomma, as a Reward, my parents help me buy my First Brand New car... A Honda Civic Si 2013
 It's not the Most Powerful Car in the World, But it is one that I will have a lot of fun as a Daily Driver, and my Parents Build Me a Garage For putting my car during winter (I have decide to return live with my parents, I was missing them).
And don't worry about the S15, I will give an Update In a Couple of Hours and I will explain what I did so far...

@Shaforostov I am in love with that brz Man such tasteful modding loving the new ducktail
 The ep3 is finally mine! the car is now paid in full as of last week. I got those euro projectors, but I made a mistake because I hated the look. I got them sitting in the back room of my house and kept the JDM black housings in. I finally found some wheels to fit! 17x10 Kranze all around. I still have the OEM 17x7 wheels. they were rubbing only because of the massive tires that were on it. The new Advan tires took care of that. stretched pretty hard but it was the exact look I was going for. Pics: (ps: I have the type-R 17x7 et45 rims for sale)   And the booty Shot:  Now that she is mine a sitting pretty I got some free income and think it is high time I get a new project. considering it is spring I think I want a convertible or a t top. Shot in the dark here, but does anyone have a cheap supra shell they wanna part ways with? or a Miata This post was edited by Driftphantom (2015-04-08 00:51, ago) |

So I finally got the engine built by me and my buddies at Predator Tuning, so far I have not yet dyno'd it but I'll have to stop by after I get the car running, It's missing a few electrical bits here and there. Tom had to drive me to the hospital, one of the pistons came de-attached while we were assembling and crushed my ankle, lets say i'll be out for a bit. Here's the cars progression so far.
The engine sitting nice and tidy.    Here's the car at Predators Garage.   And here's where she will sit until I eventually get better, looks like Valo Matsuri will have to wait, although I can still get a ride there. XD

Thanks for all the positive comments, guys. Btw CALLmeSCOOBY, a side project is out of the picture at the moment. The BRZ is new so parts aren't cheap at all. I'm still cutting corners on everything else so I can afford to mod the BRZ as well as maintain my daily driver (Toyota Altezza- bone stock.)
I decided to take more pictures showing off the ducktail. Check them out-   |

-->1 month later<--
Big update on the Civic (somewhat big) I got all the rust off, new metal welded in and the bumper mounts replaced. Next step will be the engine. I'll check the auto wreckers for a B18. The shocks are leaking all over the place but replacements should arrive any day. Also a new brake system since I want to turbocharge that B18. Now has a coat of primer on it

I finished it! Whoever wanted the B16, stop over and grab it. Heres the finished result. I'm on my way out the door to get new suspension and tires so i can actually use the 500+ horsepower. Tom, do you think you could make a rollcage for me?

So, heres the fruits of my labor. I bought some hood clips to hold it down, and to save a little weight xD and a fuel safe racing cell. Tom made me a full custom rollcage, and I went out and got a racing seat, and a steering wheel with a quick disconnect, among a few other things, like a fire extinguisher, racing computer, and such. Picked up some runner wheels for the rear, and some 10 inch small tires for the front, mounted on cheap knockoff Vossen's. The car, as stated above, has 533 hp, and thats just for street driving. I had this car DOT certified to drive on the street. I mocked up, and made, a custom shortpipe with an integrated muffler, just to pass the DOT inspection. I knew they would NEVER approve a complete shortpipe without a muffler, as it would be to loud. In the TTT-Type, I could have tuned this engine up into about the 795 hp range, which I will use for when I'm AT the strip. Simple change out the impellers in the turbos, give it preemo gas (methanol) and turn the injectors up a wee bit. This car, per me calculations, will be able to make 7-8 second passes on the quartermile. With the stock tires, I had it running a quarter in 11.4 at 125 mph, but the tires were spinning the entire time, on the detuned 533 hp setup. If anyone wants to come out to the drag strip with me tomarrow, just let me know.

So, I managed to hit my front-end to a wall. I got used Kouki front-end installed now, gray part is from my brother's import shop & hood is almost new from ebay. Installing it was pretty easy, except when I managed to snap one bolt & I couldn't get it out. There's a ziptie holding bumper at one onnection, but it seems okay so far. I'm planning to do 326 power or D-Max kit on the S14, not sure. I also need Kouki taillights now... Here are some pictures.
After putting new Kouki parts on the car  At track chilling with friends. I didn't take my S14 on the track anyway.

Lol, and you can just buy a whole new front end and our posts arent realistic, thats funny.
Added 3 minutes later: Also I love how everyone is bitching over a rollcage, if you don't like the idea then don't fucking comment on it if you are butthurt. Easy solution.

I'd say we stop bitching. It's that easy.
Sure, all of our posts might not be that realistic but we try. U have to realise not everyone is on the same level of knowledge about cars(therefore less realistic builds or whatever) or have the same photo editing skills. I know I'm constantly trying to improve my editing skills and posts. Im sure the rest of us would like to get better at it aswell. If u ask me the realism is limited in SLRR aswell. Not every mod is high quality and have huge amounts of parts that comes along which limits the creativity of the build. That's just the way it goes and I guess we need to adapt to that and we try our best. Atleast I do. So quit the negativity and learn to apprecite the build. If you dont like it or you feel like u need to point something out that you feel is dumb or un realistic then hold it in would ya? We are all here because we think it's fun and stuff like that just kills the vibe. That's just how I feel. Another thing, Im not pointing fingers at anyone but I just thought this might clear some stuff up!

In my honest opinion, realistic builds are indeed nice, but they get boring. If every single build here was realistic, this thread would die because of waiting.
Added 7 minutes later: Okay so I sold the BMW. It made me discover that EDM cars are just not for me. So here's the Mark 100...  Judging by the faded colour, the broken suspension, the mismatching steelie wheel and the red trunk and bonnet, this car was 100% a project car.

Hello everybody, haven't been on here in a while.
I cleaned up my garage and sold some cars, decided to move to a different garage and thought I should start fresh. I bought myself the typical Bulgarian drift car - BMW E30! And guess what I'm going to do with it... Yes, it's going to be a drift car!  (Also I'm going to be learning to 3D model with this car, by making some addon parts for private use) |

# Ey papa : I was able to find a 1JZ-GTE From a Wrecked Toyota Supra 1992(Rear End, so no damage to the Engine)
 I was only able to do that on my S15 during the last three months (School was my number 1 priority)
The engine is running good, but I am looking to rebuild it...

# Robustock : My friend is selling this Silvia if someone is interested, in particular you Coprone, I read that you may want that Gentleman kit...Seems to be a good S14, but I have to sell my second 240SX S13 (gray) before. If you want you can have it for some price we both would be happy at. If you really want an euro, my dad has a MK1 Golf at his summer cottage he recently got back. Oh and by the way, my brother found his old S14 BN Sports & Vertex style bumper from his car "collection" (we call it collection but it's actually a junkyard where he & his team members dump their old missiles etc. Don't worry, it's legally owned by him & it's not in the woods). Bumper itself needs some work, basically bogging to get it back to it's shape. Here's a picture of it after I attempted (and succeed) to install it.
