Wish I had snagged those deep Volks from you Coprone :))

I've got other wheel plans for the R33 anyway but they would have looked nice.

You're telling me the Honda can represent the garage? Sweet!
Also, I turned down the Neon, it just didn't have enough "car" on it.
Okay so I went to pick up dem deep TE-37s from Coprone, and saw something rather rusty and abandoned on the way home. I decided to buy it. I found it's owner, and got it for 200$ He doesn't really know what he's missing out:


I'm gonna restore it :D

So it's been a few days since I sent the skylines off to paint, and now they've returned.

Here's my little nissan collection.









The R33 is going to be getting some work done soon.

New colours on both cars are Nissan OEM colours from the S14 (or 240SX in North America)

R32 is painted in Starfire Blue Pearl

R33 is painted in Cobalt Green Pearl

I wanted to do something unique and these are two of my favourite OEM colours from Nissan (besides Midnight Purple of course)

I just received big brake kids for both cars, R32 will be fitted first but probably won't show update on that, R33 will be fitted with new wheels.

Why would 4 door have RB26? Just wondering, since it's not actually a GTR...

And if it's an RB26DET, it's not stock. RB26DETT is what you mean, probably.

I found something pretty awesome. The listing JUST popped up on Valolist, going to check it out. Yall will probably be jelly xD Also, I'd like to join PTG. My speciality is exhaust systems. I can bring some of my favorite and best vehicles over. Look for a SLAMMED 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STi.

Welcome to the craziest bunch of Valo XD Exhaust systems you say? Can you build exhaust systems from scratch like I can build rollcages from scratch? As said, talk to Reece in terms of payment. I've seen that Impreza when I was in town. Nice to meet the guy who built it. You can display your car at the Matsuri, too.

Sweet. Yeah, I build EVERY system from scratch so I get the right resonance. I also do transmissions. My super, Fred, took me under his wing about 3 years ago, and he runs a transmission shop. He's since changed his sign to say Fred's Tranny, and under it Darren's Custom Exhaust. SInce then, He built me my own garage IN his yard, and I've been working there since. The Subi, he actually built over the course of 6 months, and managed to trick me into making the exhaust for it xD He said there was an '04 Subaru that needed an exhaust system for a "VIP", so naturally, I made one. Then, behind my back, he put the thing together, put it into the garage, and took me out there. It was a one two punch finding out I have my own place to work ANNND my dream car. I daily that Subaru, so, I really want to get a DD sticker for it...

Heres what I found guys...



That right, it's an R34 GTR.. But there's more to it then that.





A Z Tune!







ANNNND it still has the RB26DETT Z2 engine in it! Not many plans for this then lowering it, and maybe some camber for the turns. BUT something else happened in the shop. I got new lights for the S15 Varietta. I took her out the other day and the old ones got chipped. The new ones shine bright red light >=3

Hey guys! I'm back went to pick up the wheels I got from Haku, and after I got home the car was there in its new beautiful color! I love it! The car sits nice and low on these fresh rims, and I also took a little trip to our garage, And if you are wondering about payments, you get paid by how much work you do in the garage, and how much you make, if its $100 you get $50 and the rest goes to the garages funds. And Dxg you think you could fabricate me an exhaust?.. The baby is also a little low on power, will have to go scavenge the internet or junkyards for some more upgrades! Here are some pics of the ride.

No problem Smokie. Just bring it to the shop sometime, and I'll have it done within an hour. Meanwhile, you can go do donuts in the parking lot with the Subi xD

I'm there anyways XD We can set up our office. Do you think we could put 2 desks in that seperated room? Phone and internet could be routed in there. Then I'll phone around. Let's see if I can aquire us a tow truck.

We could actually retrofit a towing system like those repo trucks into my truck. Just put a quick disconnect system so it can be taken out to haul stuff! Shes got plenty of power, and really strong suspension, so it would work just fine

It was most likely repainted. I can see grey where the hinges are, where the paint was rubbed away.

nothing a hammer and a wrench can't fix.

Added 39 minutes later:

So I fitted dem wheels from Coprone, and I got to say, the car looks meaner now. And that's what I wanted to do.

So I put one of the wheels as a spare tire on the Impala, and sandblasted it. Who knew that you could find a whole quarterpanel,
two rear side skirts, taillights and a headlight all in one trunk? Damn these cars are roomy!
Anyway, here it is. Those parts were red, and I'm quite unsure what colour to paint the car. I'm thinking either white or red. What do you guys think?

It didn't take long for me to find a replacement for the caprice
Going to be swapping the engine though. It doesn't run well at all.
A friend of mine was nice enough to lend me his abort- I mean Ford Focus until I'm done

Before you do either of those, ask yourself why you need the car and what you need more horsepower for. Then look at what the best option is for what you want.

# Snowfox : ^False, it can run but it runs shitty as fuck. Experianced that before.
U should have heard the engines at my school. I remember stripping one of them down and putting it back together and man did it sound like a tractor xD running on 3 cylinders and no exhaust system is a recipe for loud noise! (the engine was a Volvo B23FD btw)

Sorry i havent really kept up on Helmut. This is the final result of the merc. I had the hre's sent to a shop to be repainted and power coated black. i shined the chrome on the wheels and i think this build was one of my favorites. This car is one crazy shit to drive, making 700+ hp on the dyno. Its a beast on the street. If anyone is interested ill think about selling. Here some pics
