I haven't been posting for a while but I've been working hard on some stuff, hopefully an update soon...

Welcome & Nice Z.

Here is a long update since I've been behind on posting.

Part one;

240SX gets to see it's first track day with the LSA in it, it is a crazy car to say the least and a completely different experience now.





Part two;

I got hard to work on the 240Z, I got all the parts I needed, complete suspension overhaul, an RB25DE installed, primed for paint, and then...



I got tired of it. I didn't want it. This wasn't the Z I used to have and it wasn't going to be that car. I decided to cut ties with it and sell it with all the parts ready to go, I even made a bit of profit at the end of the day. Then I bought something I've always really wanted.

Part three;

I've owned and sold many cars since I built my first car here in Valo, my old Impreza back on one of the first few pages. I can't really keep track of all the cars I've owned, I've just recently sold a bunch of cars because I'm at a point where I'm wasting money keeping cars around that don't get to be enjoyed like they should. I've started full time daily driving my S4, I sold my MK2, I sold the ER34 a little while ago because I had a person interested and I didn't drive it, I sold the Z, and I've sold so many other cars in the past it's ridiculous to think of how many I've owned. I buy cheap, pour in money, make a profit, repeat. But this car is different. I bought it two weeks ago and I immediately got to work on the vision I had for it because it's different than my average car.





This is a 1970 Porsche 911 in very good condition for it's age. I picked up this car for $29,000. I don't usually say what I've bought my cars for but I don't think I'll be selling this one. This particular car is a 2.7 liter flat 6 with a 5 speed transmission, and let me just say that this is an amazing sounding car. Hearing this engine behind you is an experience.



I stripped it on the second day of owning it as the first was all about driving it.

I didn't take pictures over the last two weeks but I'll show you where it's at now with a run down of modifications so far. I didn't want to clutter up the post with unnecessary pictures.







I purchased a replica RS rear whale tail trunk, all around wide body kit which includes over fenders, front RS style front bumper that's extended to fit flush, rear 964 style bumper with a shaved extension where the rear light bit used to go. The car is now sporting Bride Zeta III seats and a complete fabricated rollcage. The running gear came next and I settled with H&R coilovers all around, 300mm Brembo disk (6 Piston front, 4 Piston rear) brakes for great stopping power, and Work VSXX wheels, 19x9 in the front and 19x10 in the rear. The wheels are wrapped in pirelli semi slicks for track application currently.

Next up will be a new steering wheel, paint, and then engine work. Staying air cooled, either going to completely swap the engine for a 930 3.0 turbo or 3.3 turbo engine, or I will build the bottom end of this and get as much as I can from it. Stay tuned.

VR6 for first car? C'mon, when you're learning to drive you don't need that much power

From Colorado with a red Corrado? I smell... Forza Horizon

# FamousMan : A little update for you guys.
I got my Silvia back from being painted at RotaryProblems' buddys shop. I would highly recommend going there for some paint. They took care of my ol' girl real nice and made her look damn fine! Also, I got my Rocket Bunny parts that I never told you guys I ordered, along with a nice pair of SW Gora rims. You'll also notice the new rear quarter panels thanks to Haku!




Here's a booty pic for you guys as well, yes I don't have an exhaust on, and yes it is loud.


Also got a new steering wheel I'm pretty pumped about
Race car interior


Probably good to leave freshly painted parts on the ground right?


And another shot of the engine because It makes me happy to look at


Next step is to try and get it registered and legal for the roads of Valo City!

Only needs a Rocket Bunny front bumper.

My second go at a shark, this time I feel it's much more fitting than my old Miata...

# Haku : Welcome & Nice Z.

Thanks man. I'm actually getting a used set of STANCE coils for cheap so I don't mind spending the cash. More pics soon.

Mazda Mx-5 Project Update

a Week later i founded at a Used parts store some parts that were missing which was the front quarterpanel the headlight rear bumper and the front grill




the parts got painted and looked like this



Anyways the car looked nice but we had to think about the engine and well whats better than an 1.6 liter i4
You Guess'd it an 1.3 liter.....rotary engine why you ask? cause 217hp without turbo/supercharger thats why

Day after day we FINALLY putted the engine in place and it looked beautiful



forgot to mention that we brought a supercharger too and changed the headlights since the ones that it had reduced some space for the engine and we painted the rims to black color

We tested the car and it was great the engine produced 380hp thanks to the supercharger and flat could go 230 km/h (which is around 130/140 mph i guess)

You should get an S15

S15 project is finished , I'd race it for a few nights , then I'll modify a Mustang and race with it. I've just picked up '93 LX.. And another one Mustang is coming. Red 2008 one , still deciding between GT or GT/CS , 315 hp is enough. Wanted to go crazy and get a Terlingua , or a Saleen , but for a DD none of them are needed. Also pics for the S14 drift car will wait , I'm modifying the engine (another Stage 4 but with a lot smaller turbo).

@MjM: Maybe a Corrado? I know that there's a Corrado G60 at a car dealer here in Valo. Maybe it's worth checking out?
@klucifers: Same to you; Maybe you can do something with it and it's definately not a car you see every day.

Hey guys long time no see! I took alittle break from posting here due to college etc. so let me update o the car situation. first, I abandoned the STI I project and sold it off, I couldn't bear chopping up a perfectly good scoob. Second, I traded the skyline to Unique Imports over in East Valo. They gave me cash on top because of how rare the V-spec is, especially in white like mine was. If anyone wants a white V-spec on LMGT4s and tomei exhaust, call them up. I don't think it will be on the lot for long. Finally, the new car. I decided to get out and get something out of my JDM comfort only for a brief moment. SO I was able to pick up this with my trade, a 2005 BMW M3







Just look at all that German excellence! this is currently my daily, so naturally it wont be stock for long. I actually just contacted Broadway Static, and they have some custom coils with 10k springs all around being shipped over. I am also looking for a new project, anyone got some cars out there or know of any?

-->3 weeks later<--
I managed to get a 4A-GZE for my missile; Funny story behind it: I checked out an auto wrecker and went to the area where they have engines. There were all kinds of engines including a 4A-GZE. You know, the compressor 4A-GE. It was complete minus a transmission. Talked to the guy there and he said that this engine came out of a supercharged 80s MR2. Noone really wanted it and so it sat there. He really wanted it gone and so he sold it for just 800$. Got the rest of the powertrain as well. Now I have to fit everything into that Golf. Engine and tranny is in now but I still have to mod the rear axle. Big advantage on the GZE is that it has the right internals for a turbo swap.

# PXRZ : Also, what garage (garage mod) are you using there?

It's AC showroom garage that didn't load for him...

# Coprone : It's AC showroom garage that didn't load for him...

ahaha true

My BMW got some new shoes

Ill buy mself a r32 and go full missle with it

I may have found my next drift car... I got word from a friend about a guy trying to sell his SN95 Mustang GT...

So I told myself four cars would be the limit. I wish I could say that was enough, but it isn't. I really wanted an NA Miata, so I went out and hunted for one. Five cars is the limit for me now, no more! The maintenance that I need to do on my cars, while not costly, is time consuming.

So I went out hunting for a suitable NA Miata I could buy, and I came across this black example for $600.





Has a full drivetrain, healthy NA8C (80,000 km on the motor, 120,000 on the chassis). A little banged up, but..




Was rear ended quite hard, and the frame is smashed beyond repair. However, the entire front half of the car is intact, and the only really damaged parts of the drivetrain are the driveline and diff. I found a Mariner Blue chassis, straight as an arrow, that I'm going to swap all the good parts off this Miata onto. Then this one is going to be sold to the wrecker, and I can get building on the Mariner Blue car.



Ripped off the good stuff, motor came out after this pic, and I made a solid $200 out of the chassis. Thinking of maybe selling the S14 project to fund this car, but I have great plans for that car and I don't want to let it go..
