Alright, I got the rotary in now and it's modified:
Needed new rotors so I got a compression ratio of 9.7:1. Of course there was no exhaust and intake manifold but I got them from a junkyard. A bigger exhaust was needed, too since that tiny pipe probably couldn't handle the amount of exhaust gases from the engine. It started after a while of tinkering. I had to install a bigger fuel pump, too. Took her for a spin and she flies! I got it primered now: Next step is a paintjob and safety inspection so I can get it on the road legally. (No one saw me taking her out so don't worry ) |

Hi guys! This will be my first post on the Vstanced forums so be nice for the first few posts maybe? =P
So I was racing around Tsukuba when I spotted a white R33 at the pit stop. It was in bad condition, then front and back of it severely damaged. The whold car was a write off and it was a sorry sight. The R33 was towed back to my garage and I removed all the parts, repaired the damage and primered the car. Im now looking for a cheao donor car as I am a bit tight now so can anyone provide one for a reasonable price? |

So, over the weekend i cleaned the whole interior and now everything is back in place looking a lot more nicer than it was previously. The next plans will now be to find some coilovers and hopefully some nice looking wheels during the week.

Stripped down and ready for paint. New colour! I wanted something different and something that would stand out. The steelies are temporary. Just sold my rims, wanted something different for the direction I'm going with the car. Went for a little night shoot after putting in my new Momo Touring. And that's where I am with the Subaru. I may or may not have picked up a side project ALSO, anyone looking to sell me some rims, show me what you have. 17 or 18 inch only, don't think I'll be fitting anything larger and 16's are too small for me (my steelies are 16's.) Stay tuned, may unveil my project tonight! |

I bought a Pontiac G8 sedan. I'm going to probably chop it into a UTE. That would be awesome, then I can sell my Sierra and have a draggin' wagon. If anyone would be interested in the Sierra, I can provide pics. Cummins 24v swapped, near perfect condition, with a lift, stacks, and the bed is quite torn up paint wise. I thing I'd ask 10k or so. It's got 50k miles on it. Also, anyone interested in a perfect, garage/collector kept Jaguar Mk II? Less than 5k miles. I would want 25k for it, but its quite worth it.
Pics!! Also, got so caught up in it, didn't remember to take pics, the Civic, is totally This post was edited by dxg1997 (2014-10-07 00:35, ago) |

Update time! Got a smooth 13k for the mr2 and quite honestly I was happy to see it go. working on the engine was terrible it was so compact, now on to something bigger haha. I saw this old s14 chassis sitting in someone's yard on the way home from school. turns out it was a project car that this man's son had started, but he soon gave up when they went out and bought him a fr-s for a birthday present. this man just wanted it gone, and I wanted a drift missile, so 1500 and it was mine (that's a steal in my town for an s14 shell). I rushed home and got the trailer and hauled this baby home. I forgot to take pics when I got home, but I worked out all the suspension today. ksport slide control coils all around and Mr. Sir arms. I'm obsessed with this brand. also broke out a pair of work eurolines that I initially bought for the altezza, but the offset was too high. I have ordered a stroked 2j block and am gonna build it myself. I'm gonna document it here as well.
Pics: Almost forgot.. The Altezza is home! finally got her back from forged performance with my HKS turbo kit installed. its making a cool 350 on stock internals, except for the new injectors and radiator. I'm in love |

@Driftphantom
Can't wait to see the S14, it's gonna be dope. About to start a drift project myself. My new project car E36! Bought it for 2700 and threw on some wheels that were lying around my friends shop so that I could go do some late night skids. This will be a drift build, probably going to drop the engine ASAP. Thinking big turbo SR20 because I'm a nissan lover I'm also thinking about putting the Subaru on bags and going with 16 inch rims |

The Starlet is done! Needed an oil cooler, though.
So now that I got a sweet sleeper I needed a new car to work on. When I bought the oil cooler for the Starlet I saw a stripped white '92 Supra and I just HAD to buy it: I'll drop a 2JZGTE in it which will be putting out ~500HP when it's done. That one will be a ricer Edit: I found a 2JZGE (N/A version) that will be converted to a turbo. Also I'll be looking around for some parts like the glass, trunk lid, hood, headlights and so on. @dxg1997: Isn't the game supposed to have auto-save? Or did it crash?

So I spend exactly 75$ for a reconditioned alternator, now the Golf doesn't cut out randomly anymore! Charging up nicely and the lights don't dimmed anymore. Also no problem with starting up either! First time, every time. I installed the first mod on it, the old rear box was pretty shot. So I changed it with some nice GTI style exhaust back box. I doubt the car sounds any more rorty than standard small exhaust. I think it's actually even less rorty than the old blowing one. But there is some bad news! Some guy ran into the rear of the car at work, no damage to the sheetmetal. But the bumper mounting is bent. Also one of the rear hubcap flew away, but I guess it's alright as I'll be replacing the wheels with some alloy soon. |

Progress on the Corrado is slow but steady. Got the suspension and brakes done and got some wheels for it. All parts are painted and interior was good so it was left alone. I was considering on swapping a VR6 on it but since this wasnt a VR6 chassis to start with the engine bay is a bit smaller so I went with a supercharged ABA. Waiting on the valve cover to finish it and see how well it does.
Also bought a new parts gathering car from a dude downtown. It is pretty rough but I plan on rat rodding it. Engine is a bit anemic and overheats a bit so Im riding it Roadkill style (go watch that on youtube). I plan on swapping a TDI engine from a MK4 down the road but for now it works fine. |

@Haku Thank you and good luck on your bimmer. the sr20 is a great motor and the e36 chassis is a great platform I hope to see you at the track some day.
S14 update: Got the bottom end for my 2jz today. This babe was shipped straight from the gods at JUN. this block has been reinforced and bored, now being a 3.2L. they also included the forged 3.2 crankshaft, forged con rods, and forged, low compression pistons to get ready for turbo. projected hp is about 900+ when completed. Also at a local swap meet today I picked up some LED taillights and a huge BCL wing Pics: |

Well, some news on the Elco, i took it out on a test run, and...i ran it into a tree.
And after a couple days at the shop, i sold the rear cage, the passenger door, the topper, the hood and fender, the LS, the supercharger off the LS, and the driver rear quarter. The gate was stolen, but whatever, i just sold it to some shady dealer. I made enough money to buy something.....better, you'll see soon enough. |

I didn't put in a claim, i actually bailed because i wasn't about to play a reckless/careless driving ticket, so i got it home, put the lot of parts on craigslist, and dumped the car.
I just bought my new car, i'll post pictures when she get's home. I also got a bigger shop. *UPDATE*
Surprise! An ER34, with a worn 2JZGE, some HR coilovers, Mines replica wheels, a rust free chassis, and a pretty clean interior.Prepare for more....racecar things..maybe a RB swap if i feel like it. This post was edited by camarofan (2014-10-08 04:21, ago) |

The engine is in now:
It has stock internals exept the pistons, TRD camshafts, a bigger intake manifold, a twin fuel system, a TRD twin disk clutch and a bigger Turbonetics turbocharger. It did start but it will need some fine tuning to get it right. |

Thought I'd show you guys some of the cars of my colleagues at work.
This is what the car park usually looks like. This 2008 Pontiac G8 GT belongs to a guy I work with. Apart from the tint, the car got no performance modification on it, but I think it looks pretty good. This 1993 Volvo 850 GLT got some nice wheels and lowering kit on it. I dunno who own it. Don't be fooled by the slotted mags! This Mustang actually is a 4-cylinder! A turbo 4-Cylinder, but a 4-cylinder none the less. This car got the same 2.3 Turbo as the Mustang, it's the 1989 Merkur XR4Ti, one of the last to arrive in the US. It looks rusty and kinda beat up, but the owner boosted the engine up to 200hp, he goes to autocrosses with me, a cool guy! This is the head of the lab's car. 1995 Ferrari F355. And unlike other Ferraris out there, this one actually got driven a lot! And the best car here. 1966 Porsche 911 Targa. A very mint car! I haven't met the owner though, it first appears very recently and I don't know which department he work with. I haven't manage to run into the guy yet, I waited today for half an hour at my car just so maybe he'd come back to the car, but I had to come home so I couldn't meet him. Oh and also you may notice I drove the Golf to work today, that's because the 328 decided to not run properly, it lose a lot of power and feels like it's running on less than ideal amount of cylinders. Somebody suggested that it's the VANOS O-ring, I guess I'll take a look in the weekend. This month doesn't seem to be a good month for me when it comes to car related things. |

I recently got a AE86 Tureno Kouki that was sold on an auction, because it was illegally parked for a very long time with no way to contact the owner.
The problem is that it was stolen from my garage because I parked it outside, instead of inside for some reason. Luckily, the car was traced back and saved from being thrown into a valley. However, the robbers ripped it's 4AGE out, probably to sell it. I had no option but to take it back to my garage. This is the car, after it got stolen. I didn't knew what to do with it, but then my neighbor decided to sell his RX-7's mostly stock 13B-REW just in time. I bought it from him, and decided to use it in my AE86. This is the result. |

@camarofan dude what a great find! id be more than willing to assist with the rb tuning if needed I know that it is one big headache alone.
3.2L S14: the head came in today. what we have here is a 2jz head matched with Greddy cams being spun by a Greddy belt. Still waiting on the Greddy turbo kit but got the engine and all my support mods fitted to the car. this included a Greddy oil filter, Greddy transmission fluid cooler (bulletproof 2jz transmission) and an ARC radiator and hoses. the turbo kit ordered comes with turbo header, the single turbo, and upgraded phylum, intercooler with piping, and finally an oil cooler.

Well, i was got my Z tune fenders, and a new trunk, which had a small lip on it, i put on an Impulse bumper i had, and got a Dmax hood for the ER34 When i was waiting for my hood to get delivered i got my rebuilt 2JZGTE, which sounds AMAZING.
I later decided i wanted the BN kit, so i order that along with the Uras wing. And since the car was set up for mad skids....that's what i did. And the moment i pulled out of the pits Ended up just taking it off, and finish the day and put it back on Aaaand......i killed motor, had a couple buddies help me gettin' it out, and turns out that it was just the seals, and the turbo. We got it put back together, and loaded it on a trailer to go home |

3.2L s14: Today the full greddy turbo system arrived. When installed, the engine now can produce 910hp, just 10 more than the expected result of the build. it runs like a dream and only took about 3 test before I got it all dialed in. Took it out to the track to she how she handles now awaiting body kit and paint

Well, I decided to hold off on updating till I finished my Miata. So here it is.
I redid the interior in black, because tan is terrible. I picked up some Rotiform rims and wide fenders for it too. Here's the back, I got some fastback style taillights, and a nice exhaust tip from J's Racing. And the engine, which has full BLACKSERIES tuning. The G8's rebuilt engine should come in tomorrow, So I can mount that and then make some nice long, black lines on the pavement. |

I got some stock seats and finally some glass! Not in my ass but on my car
In the front are BMW M brakes and calipers which were a bitch to fit but they're in and they work perfectly. I wanted to stick with the 5-spoke style so I installed a set of 19" Enkei Tarmac EVO rims. THe bodykit isn't here yet; It's a Kaminari kit with a Do-Luck wing. Installed some headlights, too. I got them for dirt cheap because the pop-up mechanism is toast. So I have them open all the time. |

Hey people!, I've just opened up my workshop once again this year ready for the builds I'm starting, hopefully ending with a good Race/Drift car. Whatever I can work the car up to.
First, I'd like to say I'll be uploading my builds later on, since I've ordered a new chassis and hopefully it'll be here within the next few days. But meanwhile, I'd like to share the build I did last year (Sorry, no shots during the build, only the finished product). This is my Toyota Altezza, or as the name of the car here in the UK is a Lexus IS300. So mine is pretty rare with this company name. This car doesn't have the usual Toyota engine though. I've adjusted it slightly so fit in a RB26DETT from a Nissan Silvia S13 K's. It gives the car that much power as so the car lifts up on two wheels when taking corners, of course it takes some skill to stop it from rolling over, as so I've widened the wheels to sit further away from the car. The car is also rolling on 18" BBS wheels all around and the stopping power is all on the four Carbon disks and Brembo calipers. Now, this is all I can show you for now, lets move onto the chassis I'm expecting. Unlike most people I've seen here, I'm not buying from a scrap yard, instead I've got a contact who specializes in refurbished chassis. Though it is more expensive this way, you can guarantee a rust free frame. Now whats this car I've ordered you ask?, well I've searched around and a Toyota Corolla AE86 Levin is very, very rare in the UK. So I'll be excited to have this come in and will be a pleasure finding parts for this car. Edit: Well, I didn't expect this to happen. Just as I finished typing this and went for a brew, this came in on a flatbed truck. Looks good doesn't it?. Well now I've just used a spare box of HKS coilovers and some Mr.Sir suspension arms. Then put on some Carbon disks and black Brembo calipers (You know, for the stealth approach.) Next I used some refurbished AE86 wheels I bought just last week for this build. Only thing now is, for the engine, is to find a 4A-GE engine to complete the car. Then onto the body. I've chosen to take the sleeper look. Because who doesn't like the standard look, but which a hidden killer under the bonnet? This post was edited by Lamzumi (2014-10-10 10:17, ago) |

Hey everybody, been a bit absent in the last few days due to the fact I've been doing some photo shoots and editing. Pic related:
But now that I'm back, I can show all the progress I've had on my E36. Sorry about big post, got lots of work done So I pulled out the engine and stripped the car down to make lighter. and then I threw in this built SR20DET I purchased a little bit ago from a friend of mine. Someone was selling a CSL style trunk and rear bumper after their car was in an accident. Picked them up and threw them on. Then out for a test run. aaand crash. That's what I get for messing around on city streets Then I got a new front end and decided I wanted some new shoes. Wanted to do something a bit different. Also picked up a roof rack and mounted it against the roll cage Out for a drift Then paint and lastly... Got underglow. Glow gets the hoes So everything I've done to the car since last post: -Performance- SR20 Swap, engine is currently pushing 500HP after some tuning and a new turbo. Coilovers Steering knuckles for more angle Camber plates New wheels (16x10) -Styling- Roof rack New headlights New front bumper Plates! (My car is now road legal ) Rollcage New hood New rear bumper and trunk Carbon mirrors Momo Carbon Touring New exhaust Underglow! Thanks for checking out the progress of my build. I plan to run about 700 soon |

Ive been busy working on customer cars so I havent had time to work on the Corrado. 22B has been a great daily driver so far but I think Im going to swap that EJ20 for a EJ25. I also sourced a "rekt" MK4 TDI Jetta so Im planning on swapping the engine to the Caddy.
My brother got this car from a friend, its pretty banged up but he wants to turn it into a drift missile so its all good. The engine is going away because we are purist and want to keep it it the family so a Nissan engine is going in once he gets it from a Aussie friend. Anyone want a 2JZ for cheap? |

After I sold that Onevia to shaforostov for 2.700.000 ¥, I was looking around for a Toyota project car. Came across an abused 2JZ-GTE Lexus SC300, which is basically a Toyota Soarer, so that worked for me. The guy wanted $14.000 which was a fair price. Got a friend to help me get it to our garage, where we inspected how badly it was broken.
The bumpers were done, aswell as the front left guard and both of the rear guards. The rear tires were horrible. The front wheels are pretty fine so far. The engine was in a good condition as it looked like... Until we found out that the head gasket was blown. Great. First we removed the engine, then we ordered stock replacements for all the broken body parts. Left the exhaust system in though, nearly no damage done to it. Roll cage and fuel cell were also removed and are currently up for sale on ebay. Only 2 days later we had all the replacement parts for it and mounted them. Looked decent. I also got a trunk lip for a Soarer from another friend, just had to add it. I'm currently looking for some wheels, 18". I'm undecided so I'd like to know what there is to offer. Condition should be good. Please let me know if you've got something. |

I'd like to take the fuel cell off of your hands. I know a friend that'll need one for his E30 build. What's your best price?
