Hey people. Long time no see!
I've not played SLRR the last few days since I got a little bit bored of it. Not only that I was sick aswell. But I'm back and will start posting again. There might be a break in posts this coming week as my apartment is getting renovated but we'll see! Anyways, here is a quick pic of the s13 in it's current state I have mixed opinions about the paint. When I picked colour the guy told me it was gonna be a darker blue once it's on the car and as you can see quite clearly it's more of a light blue. There is ofcourse nothing wrong with that but I dont think it fits my car so I think I will repaint it in the future at another paintshop. Speaking of paintshop, if anyone of you know of a paintshop with good prices and quality hit me up. Im open for anything |

You can stop by my buddy Greg. He did the Airbrush on my convertible and if you tell him that I suggested, he'll probably give you a discount.

I got hold of an RB26 with a Garrett turbo on it, but needs a little work on the gasket and some cleaning on the valves. I'll prep it and let you know when to bring the Bimmer over.

My good friend Filip used to work at his shop awhile back. Thanks for the suggestion! I will definately keep him in mind! |

okay, since my last post contained nothing here's what happened.
A fire outbreak. It burned The Bitch, burned the side of the Celica, and the Z got a little burnt. The Celica and the Z are fixable, but The Bitch had to go. She's dead. So, to do that, I'll have to get into the underground racing scene. Any suggestions for a new car? I got some money from insurance. |

What happened? Did something in the wiring from the Seat start al that? And what about a BNR34? Evo 5? BNR32? I still got mine if you're really interested. I like the car but somehow i feel it doesn't suit me. Apart from what's on the car i haven't ordered anything yet.

No. The garage went on fire. IDK how, I think I left something on for too long overnight. Thanks for the suggestions by the way. I'm thinking of getting an BNR34 or an ER34.

@facepalm dude sorry to hear about the fire. I think a bnr32 is a good fit for you.
Update: I sold the z32 to some teen whose parents made me an offer I couldn't refuse. sorry to see it go, but 10k is good enough to heal all wounds also, I ended up trading in my STI for this handsome fellow. The Evo X. I am loving this gray. I went down to the factory area to take some shots next step is wheels and exhaust, Ive had my eye on a pair of meisters or maybe a pair of 3 piece joss wheels |

Hm... 6k sounds fine. I have 8k on my bank, so it's a yes! Can you deliver it on my new garage? It's just on the corner of Verde Street. It's an old warehouse. Door's always open, just park the car up, and knock the door.

@dxg: The BMW is on the trailer and waiting for the new engine. Has no plates now.
And I bought this 1993 GMC Sierra for 300$ to pull the trailer. It has 150k miles on the clock that's probably why it is so cheap. Engine runs good but I'll do a compression test to be sure. |

Hey everyone, saw this forum and decided to post my pride and joy!
BMW E36, gave it a rotary engine conversion, got it on a rolling road, its pushing just over 550bhp. Not sure what I should do next? I'm looking for a nice little project car for tracks etc but have no idea what shell I'd use! Anyone know anyone selling any cheap shells etc? Thanks. Steve |

Oooookay! I got the Skyline from Snowfox! Will post pictures soon.
Added 49 minutes later: Here it is! Along with the surviving cars: So the Z has a burst tire, that's all. And some ashes... on the side. The Celica is now sitting on two steelies and two normal wheels. I'm currently trying to fix the rims. This post was edited by Facepalm (2015-01-20 21:51, ago) |

-two months later-
Big things have happened with the GS300 over the last 2 months. I picked up a set of 2015 Work Emotion wheels for a decent price,thanks to a friend. They fit the GS300 well,even though I had to roll pretty high with them for about two weeks. After the long enough wait, I finally got my set of Megan Racing Fully adustable coilovers from ebay,as well as a camber kit and a few other suspension parts to finish off the slammed and static look. Within due time, I got fed up of the tucking and I bought wheel spacers to finish off the widened look. The end result is beautiful. However, the car will only remain at this height for an upcoming meet and when it's over, I'm going to raise it about an inch or an inch and a half for some more practical driving. Don't worry,the build doesn't stop here.At this point in time the GS was begging for a new suspension setup. Coilovers,camber plates,bushings and other suspension parts went in. The wheel spacers gave a much more aggressive,yet simple look. Too bad she's going to be raised soon. Bonus picture. You can see how tight the fitment is in this shot. Within the next few weeks, I'll be prepping her to head into the shop for new work on the fenders, as well as the full Aristo swap,then a single turbo conversion to make somewhere around 350-400whp. A Motec system is going to help reach those numbers while I still retain the efficiency of the NA 2JZ. |

Well guys, i lost the E34. I got done with a track day, and instead of bringing a truck, i drove it, it did have street tires on it so i wasn't worried about weather. Well, the car had an issue with the throttle sensor, and it going wide open when it got wet, and it ended up raining on my way home... Needless to say, the car roasted its way to a ditch and it was totaled, there was no saving it. The cylinder walls were scored, one piston seized and the motor shut off, so i let them take it. Luckily i had insurance, and it happened off track, so i got a fat insurance check. But, before i reveal my new race-car i'll show you my daily, since i've been neglecting it, and the swap i have ready for it.
Just a Bora, with an Audi V6. I bought it with no motor, so i searched around the scrap yard for a nice lil' motor, and i found a N/A V6. Couple years and lots of abuse later it was on the verge of kicking the bucket. So, i found a supercharged 4 cylinder off craigslist. On to my new project. It's the 3.8 model, but it'll do. I have a nice V8 for it, out of a..well, a drift car. The S is too sentimental for me to let it go, but i don't want the motor to go to waste. And the last time you'll see the E34 |

Okay, I forgot to mention that as soon as I got the Skyline, I ordered the rest of the body kit. This morning, it arrived.
I fitted it. Now I'm waiting for the new wheels, and then I'll move to the engine. |

Turbocharged, of course. But if you want to go crazy use a 2JZ or a V8 like a LS3. |

Well, i got the Vtec installed XD
Along with some nice T/A rims, i actually got two sets, a set of 16's and a set of 17's. I also dropped the front, but i may have the flip the keys to go lower, something about the stance doesn't seem right. I also fixed some dings and a tiny bit of rust on the Mustang, got a replica Cobra R bumper, fixed a crack in that, sanded some edges of my new Razzi kit for a nice fit, and so on. I got the motor out, I'm gettin' it ready for a heart transplant, i even have the exhaust ready |

The meet went well. Hopefully I someone took pictures of the car because I raised it an inch and traded tyres with a friend. Less stretch doesn't look bad at all.

One month later...At daytime, I'm a local car mechanic and tuner! I tune cars, and repair them if there's any problem. I'm very well known, and most of the time referred to as "the Best". At night time, I'm a street racer. Nobody knows that I'm street racing. I'm only known as a mechanic. The money I've earned over this month has been used to repair the cars. I decided to make the Z a show car, so I won't give it a new engine. The Celica got fixed, changed colour and got it's wheels back. The Skyline only had a bodykit change, and new wheels. And we come to today. A friend of mine needed the Celica, so I lended it to him. Then, a mysterious red Lancer came in. I knew it wasn't an ordinary Lancer only by looking at it. Something made me wanna drive it, own it. Then someone came out of it, and greeted me. His name is Connor, and he's the #1 on the rankings. He said he had a problem with reverse gear. I decided to begin working. While he was waiting, he noticed the Skyline. I couldn't believe it! I usually hide the Skyline with covers, but I forgot to do so today. He told me that I didn't have to worry, as this would stay between us. He then made me an offer: If I manage to climb up to rank #2, he'll race me for Pinks. I had quite a long way to go, but I accepted. I finished fixing his gearbox, and before he left, he gave me his number, just in case I need to contact him. He then left. And now there's only one person who actually knows I street race. This post was edited by Facepalm (2015-01-22 16:23, ago) |
