No photos yet, but I have the S13 almost looking like a car. Conkaa helped me weld the 180SX half cut subframe onto the S13 body since the stock subframe was bent beyond all hell in the crash. A bunch of 326power boxes came in the mail today so I should probably have an update tomorrow.

You spray-canned a car with an LS7 ZR1 motor in it? AND it's street reliable? k den. AND it was "just sitting" in your "shop". Where do you work, a Chevrolet factory? This post was edited by TheSkidKid (2015-11-18 12:36, ago) |

pinter, you can collect your car! You have the address so you can come pick it up. I'll leave the Fiero outside so you can see where you have to go. I've had some nice road trips but I gotta admit that the suspension on the Cressida is totally worn out. I've ordered some coilovers which should arrive next week. The seat is quite saggy too but I don't know if I should take it to an upholsterer or buy a complete new seat. I guess an upholsterer is cheaper, tho. |

I wanted to tint my headlights & I looked in the internet how it would look like. I saw a cool metallic black CRX with wicked headlights which gave me inspiration. After a bit googling I called UP-Garage to order these lights to my local UPG. And here they are.
I also installed retro Nardi steering wheel & Recaro white seats. Seats are much bigger & softer than stock seats were, it feels like driving on a sofa. We upgraded my front brakes to 278mm Brembo 6-pot, even though my car isn't that powerful. These were from Katsumi's S13 coupe. I'm planning to install much better engine, but first I need money to get one. |

Hello Guys, i'm back with some news.
I decided to follow Ey Papa's advice and buy the Silvia S15... but it was already gone. A few days later i fond another S15, welle a little bit different. The car itself was rather complete with a damaged front, many rust spots, no engine and an horrible interior due to the roof stuck in open position : Bought for €2750 Here's a picture of the rental car i got yesterday : While the Silvia was delivered to the shipping company, i tought it will be frustrating coming back with a car i won't be able to drive for a long time... So i came back and bought the Trueno that was priced at €6500. This one is pretty clean, with original paint, all stock parts and very good working stock engine. The Company employee told me there was enough room to fit another car i the container with a lot of parts (which i'll list later) Okay man, let me get that blue RX-7! Total sum of cars : €11250 Delivery : €2250 Very secret parts : €7500 Trip to Japan and sushis : €4000 Now i'm broke with 3 cars, only one running |

to have the same car right after I buy one is one thing, but to copy it this exactly is another. But that's none of my business |

# marcus915 : @MjM, what an original colour!r u srs You know I did the palettes specifically to make factory colors and "hey, we have the same color car!" possible, right? (Besides, his car looks like a 2014 with a 2010 front end, not a 2010-2012.) Anyway. Wine Red BCNR33 Build[EDIT: Oh no! I just realized I took all of these pictures without AA. Whoops.] Got called in by a friend, Jake, for me to help him build up his new car. He saw some pictures of my car and said he appreciated the look, so I decided to help him shop for parts and promised I'd help him out with the actual build. When Jake sent me the auction pics from the importer he was working with to bring the car in, I knew he had gotten into something special. I mean, look at this beauty. Auction Sheet Build After we finished things up, we decided to meet up at the library and do a photo-shoot. The two of us took some photos... Jake has a good eye for this stuff, and he sure picked a good evening to do it! I took my R33 [build thread here] out for a rare outing, just for the occasion. What's better than two almost color-matched cars? These are some quick pics I snapped before we got everything set up for the nice shoot. I have to admit - Jake's car stacks up very nicely compared to mine, and looks a lot more modern, despite being a '95 and not having the xenon headlights. (I think it's the custom badge and his choice of wheels that does it.) Photo Shoot Pics Added 8 minutes later: Anyone want me to post some build pics from the Supra? I'll make sure AA is on, I promise This post was edited by Harrison15 (2017-04-01 09:52, ago) |

No big deal, as far as I'm concerned. Also, yeah, looks like that on second examination, although it was hard to tell.
I'm currently re-taking all of those pics that I took without AA, because apprently I enjoy making myself work for pointless reasons. c: |

Since nearly anybody seems to care, i go on with my Japanese car adventure
The first car going out the container was the AE86... There seemed to be a problem with the sealed door... Look what a month on the sea did to the paint! Well it isnt't that bad and after a bit of sanding and a little respray, the car looks like new. I installed a proper suspension, a set of overfenders from my secret parts package and a pair of fake japanese plates. Now i get it on the trailer to homologation service. Second car to come out is the Silvia. I just stripped it and stored it while working on the AE 86 Same thing for the RX7 : stored and waiting in a friend's garage. BTW if someone is interested in the front bumper, it'll go for €150 |

{2 weeks later}
So, I finally swapped the engine in Regal... Maybe it is not original, but now the heart of Buick is GM LS3 TT. Like it or not, but I seem to love how the engine roars. And I realised that I don't drive some cars really.... I am selling Sharkey. I know I'll regret it, but honestly, I don't drive it anymore. 17.000$ and it is all yours. Vstanced suspension kit, VQ35DETT engine producing good 550 HP. I am aiming for Haku to see this, since he was the original owner.... I think that volvo and civic will be also sold in the close future. S14 is in build, Corrado aswell. Suburban was proably forgotten here, but I still use it After some thinking: Well, Volvo won't be sold. Atleast in the close future. |

# Coprone : Even the 14k is alot for an s13 missile It is a whole lot, but I'm feeling generous as I recently thought about if I hadn't sold this car. That being said it's either going to sit around for a long time or someone's going to buy some shit from me. Other than that, FC3S finally saw some track action. The wrap on the R35 was finished yesterday, I've got to say that I'm happy with the result. I couldn't decide whether I wanted a blue or a purple, so this colour ended up being exactly what I needed. At night time it definitely has a more prominent purple where as the blue shows up more in the sun. To conclude the post since I've not told much story about the R35 yet, this is basically the origin story of it. A few months ago I'd heard about an R35 (this one) that had been declared a write off due to flood damage. It was nowhere near Valo but I bit the bullet and bought this car for a nearly unrealisticlly low price. The interior wasn't in good condition from the bottom half of the seats down and basically anything to do with the electrical was fried. From buying it, I had it shipped back to Valo. I was actually surprised at the condition of the car when I got it, as it looked completely fine. With the help of Nissan of Valo, the car was eventually transformed to (near) it's original glory. It was finally in my possession in working order two weeks before my original post about it here, and then my Rocket Bunny kit arrived about one week before the post. What delayed the build the most was that I originally thought about running static, but then with the recent release of the Air Lift Performance 3H/3P set up, I decided to order that. The day I cut into the fenders was the day I got the air set up and I wanted to do everything in the same day, not starting then waiting 3 weeks to finish because I was waiting on parts. It was only a couple days of fitting parts and working on it before it was back on the ground and then of course most recently, the vinyl wrap was applied. Not sure where I'm going from here, the car is a blast to drive and I'm not sure if I really need more power out of this thing. |

# Tom Diablo : Those are actually temprorary licence plates.Thanks, a parts seller gave them to me when i was i Japan. He told me not to put them on a car as real licence plates Some updates on the Silvia : I managed to unlock the roof, installed some adjustable coilovers, big brakes and some big wheels from Germany. And oh well... an engine from my treasure chest. Suspension adjusting isn't done yet as i have to often lift and move the car since the body and interior aren't done The next step is fixing and fitting the body parts I bought in Japan. |

My friend and I might hit a few meets later if anybody wants to tag along. We will be starting in the East Valo area and cruising around from there. If you see a white Supra and a yellow BMW 318ti, feel free to join us.
Also that friend snapped these shots of me at a local drift event. The car has been painted white and had the rims swapped out since you all saw it last. I really need to get a crappy set of rims for drifting, I don't wanna end up ruining these... |

Oh yeah remember when I said I was putting the 180SX on hold? I did the opposite of that. These pictures are from yesterday... The suspension is still very bad, it is the next thing I am going to do. Also I need a fuel door... I Might hit the junkyard and search for one. |

before I show the PS13 I've been cracking away on for the past week with a few friends, I also did some work to my GX81. My friends at SerialNine hooked me up with 326power coilovers, and they basically work a lot better than the H&R's. I can get as low as I want, and I can adjust everything I'd ever want to.
Then the crew that I'm with, Unlegit Crew, hooked me up with a set of rare 15x9.5 SSR Formula Mesh, in a 4x114.3 bolt pattern. Wrapped in stretched 185/45/15 Advan rubber. And modified S13 hood risers, ISR Performance 3 inch twin blast pipes, and a front lip. |

I went out and bought a pair of wheels that would match my bolt pattern, I found a pair of what ever these are, up for $500. The owner had no clue where they came from and said they where taking up space in the garage. I went to my cousins shop to mount some tires on them, and lets just say it was quite the "stretch".
Later we went back to the garage to mount my external oil cooler that I had ordered not to long ago. Ziptie all the things! |
