So I was walking down the street with my 45. and saw some guy getting out of his car to pick something up. So I hopped in his car and drove away. After a while the cops started chasing after me. So I shot one in the face with my 45. and let the other one live cus he ain't see my face. I can't show you a picture cus you'd see my face, then I'd might have to kill you. The car was Mercedes Benz C63 AMG. only 1 step below the GTR. So pretty sick breh.

And after 2 days, the single turbo conversion is complete. Custom intake and bar map sensors have been installed. Plans for the motec have been cancelled and are being replaced with an AEM small management system which will be installed whenever it ships to over here. The factory engine parts were replaced with- A Virtual Works Exhaust manifold, GT3076r turbo, a Titan Motorsports front mount intercooler kit, a Tial external wastegate+screamer pipe, HKS SSQV as well as aftermarket gaskets and a 3" full exhaust system. Estimated HP is somewhere at 380-400 on low boost. (11psi) Here are some pictures-
Full intercooler kit set up. 3" full exhaust installed. Sounds perfect. The final result. |

Well, i sold the Bora. Someone really like the swap i guess.. And i was searchin' the interwebs for a nice luxury car, and i came across this Lexus GS 300 with no engine, some Ksport struts and lowering springs, and a set of Rotas.
I also got a hold of a '66 Chevy truck, I can't quite tell if it's an Apache or not, it's mixed with so many VINS to tell. It's got plenty of freedoms in it, but it's rough, so who knows how it'll turn out, or if it'll ever get fixed up. |

Nope, sorry man. I just ordered a set of Ksport coilovers, a set of Racinghart rims, and a new bumper because mine has some bad cracks around the bottom and mounts.
I'm sure you could find a running one, or a mechanic special. Might get lucky. |

Was out for a cruise last night and decided to call it quits around 3am, about a block from home what turned out to be a drunk driver ran a red I was able to avoid him but bounced the car up on the curb and tagged a light pole... those things have no give.
Took some pictures this morning of the aftermath, I pulled the whole front right suspension going to see if I can repair any of it and if not find some oem or oem replacements. You can see in the third picture there is unibody damage going through to the back so I've started taking off everything on the rear right as well and will get to mending any twisting or fracturing that might have happened. It's definitely going to need paint at some point really don't want any rust showing up after I've finished all the repair work by hand so will start thinking about colors. All that damage from only 45km/h and how I found out it was a drunk after making my police report they informed me he had crashed and was in hospital and I was lucky I avoided a much more serious crash. |

It took a couple days on a work bench to make sure the control arm was all straight, the parts for the rear checked out ok so won't bother looking for replacements since I have something big on order that will take care of any problems that might be there. The body on the other hand has been almost a week straight of all night welding, hammering, smoothing and repeating but it's looking stronger than before!
I used some blue rust inhibiting primer but ran out coming to the front fender so just used some white I had around, I got my paint color figured out while getting all the work done and it will be a pretty drastic change from what it is currently. I got a little overspray on the rear wheel in my hurry to get the car back together but the wheels are going to be getting a treatment when the body is getting painted. Soon as it was back together and I finished my backyard alignment it was straight off to the MP drift track for a little testing and feeling out the repaired chassis. It all went well so the car should be going in for paint in the next few days whenever my cans get delivered and I can tarp up the garage to paint it, had to get a water separation unit for my air compressor wouldn't want to have water in my paint. I lucked into some 964 sideskirts that I'll be fitting with the color change and still trying to track down a 964 front bumper, I should have an extra can or two of paint for touch ups and any body part swaps in the future would hate to try to match the color afterwards. Pictures of all that to come once the color change is done! |

Great build Gaveup!
As I said in my last post, this car needs some stance. So I did it. At that moment I didn't had any rim ideas, so I came up with idea to use stock Astra wheels with stretched tyres. I "rolled" to my workplace (I work there now, but most of the tunes I still do at home) & hid the car in parking lot. I couldn't say that I literally hid it, but it looked nothing while being next to some stock- & race cars. After last customer & drove my Astra into the garage & took off my grille to repaint that red odd thing. I'd say the result was nice with that miniature re-paint. Plus I had ordered OPC spoiler. There's a sticker-printer here (I made S14a stickers with the same printer) which I used to print one funny text "Praise the lowered". It was quite ironic at that moment as the car wasn't slammed yet lawl.
After pictures were done me & Natsumi started taking off the wheels, after that stock tyres. Now the rims are wrapped with Kumho condoms (tyres, rubber, whatever) that have nice stretch. I used Koni adjustable coilover's to lower my car & small spacers for my wheel fitment. Big thanks to Natsumi who took his time to help me on stancing my ride! |

# 2jzCookie : @camarofan man that Chevy looks good!*LINK* There ya go. I'm thinking just an LS swap, just to make some room in the shop, since the truck will be parked outside anyway. The Lexus's coilovers and bumper are a day out, and i may have an opportunity for a VR38.. @Gaveup, sucks about the Porky mane. glad you got it back together though! |

So, I went with Tom to Desert Valley Auto Parts, and found a nice working 440 for the Charger. I'll post pictures of everything soon.
So, I went up against #12. His car looked like a Skyline, and ran like a Skyline. But it WASN'T a Skyline. According to him, it's a "Zirconium Stratum GT 2.5 Sedan". Never heard of it. Seemed like a good guy to me, and I had a chat with him. Disguised as always, and I altered my voice a little. Later that day, we raced. It was a really close race, but I won! I'm now #12. dxg, prepare yourself. YOU are next... |

I raced the Camino... That was a CLOSE race. The back end kicked out on his Camino (guess he didn't have sandbags lol) and he swerved across the track and hit the wall. My TTT-Type (Twin Turbo T-Type) got a little damaged, from bumping him, but its easy to fix. Needless to say, Facepalm, You gotta face him first XP
This is what my helmet cam saw (Please ignore the HUD) And the messed up bumper |

A sort of, electrifying feeling dawned over me as I went out for testing. I can feel my opponents Getting closer and closer, just waiting for their offensive and opportunity to take my 10th position. In preparation the car was raised to compensate for street use and camber adjusted, giving the tyres more contact with the surface, increasing the overall grip of this lightweight car. as the car further increased towards its 214mph top speed I could feel the rear end losing grip but still I pushed on. the v8 screamed and roared, echoing off the banked turns of Valo's test track. eagerly I await my challenger. *shinigami's r32 music plays in the background* |

The trip to Phoenix with Facepalm was really cool and I sure had fun. Hope, you had fun as well.
So I took all the seats and the carpeting out (except the drivers seat, of course) and installed the fuel cell that came with the car: I also took out the left headlights and replaced them with an air scoop so the turbo has more air. I made a rollcage for it, too. (The mod doesn't contain one for some reason so you have to imagine it has one. Sorry) Next steps are: -Replacing the drivers seat with the Recaro pole position that isn't here yet -Modifying the rear suspension so that I can fit drag radials So you guys fight it out at the test track? Maybe I'll see you since I'll try out the performance of the blue wagon on the drag strip. @Facepalm: I can give you a hand on the Charger; I had one myself and I also did Mopar engine swaps.

Update on my S30!
Started to work on my engine, pulled off the top end to find... 5 out of 6 pistons working and corroded spark plugs. Replaced those and then went to work, as well I also relocated my battery from the engine bay. New HKS Cams, new bearings, as well as a new single turbo exhaust manifold that my friend custom fabricated for me, and a new intake collector with much better airflow than the old one. Next up, the remaining fuel was drained from the car and the fuel system was overhauled, now setup to run 100 octane (Previous only allowed 95 and 98) New turbo got mounted up with not much space at all. Intercooler and piping after a lot of cutting and retrofitting Took bae out for a test drive Took it for a dyno run and I'm now pushing 405HP to the rear wheels on low boost. That's a significant increase. Next on my list was some exterior work. I wanted to get lower so I sold my 18 inch CCWs and purchased identical CCWs in 17x9 in the front and 17x10 in the rear. Then I had my friend working on a carbon rear diffuser for me which looked stunning mounted. Once I lowered the car I realized I would have issues with the OEM exhaust system I was running, so we fabbed up a new one that sat 2 inches higher, and then a custom side exit exhaust to give even more ground clearance. I took it to the mountains and ran it hard, while my friend took some pictures. I was having issues with the rear camber I was running (-6) and so I adjusted it down to -2.5 (Roughly) before taking it back out the next night. and then a deer ran into the middle of the road. It ran away afterwards, seeming nearly uninjured. My Z was not so lucky. Shit happens. Stay tuned for more progress. This post was edited by Haku (2015-01-28 16:39, ago) |

Sure, I need help with the Mopar Tom. Come over to help me put it in.
Added 3 hours 50 minutes later: Here are some pictures from the road trip. We decided to leave the car on the garage. And here we are today. Tom helped me with the engine. I also got some original Charger wheels, as well as interior panels and seats! This post was edited by Facepalm (2015-01-28 21:16, ago) |

Paint came in last night got it wheeled out after some dry time and got some pictures taken, the wheels were redone with a black chrome finish a few days ago.
Can see the box that got delivered this morning, should be getting that installed over the next couple nights. @Facepalm get that thing tuned and will be awesome to see what kind of torque it's making, should get you down the track quickly. @Stonedmonster wow is that clean for the age of the car, not a fan of the exhaust but it some how fits. @Haku awesome build on the Z hope it gets repaired, it's a lot of work mending metal but pays off in the end with a stronger body. |

I managed to find my FIRST car Golf that was stolen lol (I mean that was stolen from me, not that I stole it) The car's in pretty crappy condition now, but it's sort of ok. When it got stolen, it was all clean, no rust almost at all & nice stance, but now here are the things that are missing/modded:
It has got new rims though, but I'm wondering how the fuck did these got messed up with blue body paint? So, I came up with idea so no-one would steal my car ever again (9 out of 9.1 wouldn't steal) - RAT STYLE! It's been few days in my garage, here's a list what I've done with it so far: |

Hey guys, It's been about a month since my last post on here and since then I have finished the S13! I put in the VR38, got the Rocket Bunny kit on (with a B-N Sports hood), all the suspension/rim/fitment work, painted it, and even took a few laps in it. Slides great, runs very smooth, and looks hella clean. Here's a few pics for you guys.
Looking for a new project in the mean time so please tell me if you know of any. This post was edited by gmaw (2015-01-30 02:54, ago) |

The clock stuck 11:30 as dxg pulled up in his t-top Regal. the tone from the exhaust spoke fear into track officials as they thankfully let us stay after hours to run our little grudge match. After little small talk we where off, cars screaming around the banked turns, neck and neck. the race could go either way The Checkered flag waved as we screamed toward the finish line. our cars neck and neck as we come off the final bank and onto the front straight. Suddenly with a flash, my shift light glows orange. How could I forget a gear?? I jam the clutch in , shifting into 6th with pure rage but it is too late. a fireball shoots from the exhaust as several con rods shatter under pressure, seizing the engine, spinning me round a bringing me to an abrupt stop just before the line. Dxg gets the win. A hard fought battle of titans. I wouldn't have wanted to lose any other way. Congrats on moving up man! The fc also sustained some chassis damage, so it is now scrap and was sent to the yard early this morning. But speed is addictive, and I will be back. I went to the bank to withdraw money for a new purchase. Stay tuned.. |
