Well, I went to the Predator Tuning Garage's, and brought some shock absorbers and springs.
Oh, and in turn, found in a junkyard, a Ford Sierra, was 1.8, but the bumpers and the like fit in mine, and were in good condition, then he has brought home and installed, now just put the springs yes, all the suspension kit was changed, springs and dampers by Predator Tuning Garage's arms bought from antique Thyago95 project (Golf MK1) and pads and brake caliper bought from a junkyard (original Brembo). Now just install the springs, and find a engine for this gorgeous Tks for all the help Tom Diablo |

Man, manageed to pick up the LAST suspension kit they had for the Altezza. I actually want something Daily, cuz the Subaru is actually nearing 100k miles, and I got it at 50k Also swung by a few of the junkyards in the area, and swiped parts from various other vehicles. drivers doors from a Lexus IS200 that got hit on the passenger side, also managed to get the driver side quarter panels off it, as well as the sideskirt, and rear bumper. I got the Passenger side stuff from a wrecked Altezza that was slammed (and unfortunetly, the driver was killed) in the driver side. The hood, front bumper, and trunk and spoiler are from that. I swiped any decent glass from both cars as well. I also grabbed the seats from the Lexus. and the steering wheel from the other Altezza. Moved the stereo to the trunk xD Then, I got to work on the suspension. Dropping that thing was a relief. I took it to the test track, and wow, was that thing shitty. it swayed all over the place! (have a pic that the resident policeman snapped). Pics in a bit guys

GS300 update!
So the last days before the matsuri I was doing some maintenance amongst other things. I also fitted a new transmission to it. With my old trans I had problems switching up to 4th and 5th. Made a bangning noise when I did so. Anyways I opted for a R154 5 speed from a JZA80 supra. I've only heard good things about it so went for a local one for a good buck. Now for pics! I unbolted the diff to see how it was doing, if it had any unusual damage to it and just check its general condition. Turns out it was decent condition. I say decent since it's the factory diff and the car is closing up on 150k miles. Anyways filled it up and got it fitted again. While I was back there I replaced some bushings aswell since they were starting to give out. After the diff was sorted I began the tedious work of installing my Exedy clutch. The clutch disk on the stock clutch looked so bad so I'm happy I got it done now. The Exedy clutch will hold for 800+hp engines and I wont come near that. Remember, it's my daily and not a Formula Drift machine! I will be happy with 400-450 hp. Clutch is in and torqued to spec. Now we fit the R154! I was bored of how slow the car was N/A. So I went on Ebay and found a stock TT setup with manifold, turbo pressure-lines and everything else to get it sorted and installed to the 2J. While I was in the enginebay lurkin around I also went ahead and installed a new cambelt aswell as took a look at the cams and valves. Everything seems to be okay there. The cams are coming out as soon as the Greddy ones I ordered arrives! I will also change the waterpump since it has started leaking. I regret not taking any pictures of the turbobuild. I was so into it so I completely forgot to snag out the camera. Luckily it was fairly straight forwards. Just fit it, hook up the turbo-lines and all the essential bits and bobs and your off! I decided to go for 1 bar(15 psi) of boost. Dont wanna go overkill but I might add more in the future. Again it's a daily and not Jeff Gordons nascar! Valo Matsuri Coverage coming tomorrow(monday). Got some sweet stuff to come! |

That lean tho
The finished car, until I find more parts, which I have a lead on some lights, tinted front and rear. I've actually, by this point, sent the car to Greg, to get painted entirely the red on the drivers side. I like that color. Heres the shocks. Decent, supple ride, but at the touch of a screwdriver, can do drifting I love the gauges xD |

Got a temporary set up for the 240SX.
Driftworks adjustable coilovers and 19" Diamond Racing steelies. They're damn big and I need to find some 18"s but they were also really cheap. The real question is will it drift? Yeah it will. Does it need more power? Yeah it does. |

Big(ish) update on the 240SX.
Did a turbo conversion on the KA24, it's making 290WHP now. Installed Boost, Oil Temp, Water temp gauges. Took the car out for a test run, came back with some drift damages. Got the car back into one piece + installed my old big wang from the S13 + new wheel setup just in time for a drift event. Car took some trashing and this is how it sits now. It's a nice missle car but I can't wait to have the S13 back out and running for some proper events. |

----------VALO MATSURI COVERAGE PART 1-----------
So, I had a great time at Valo Matsuri, met a great bunch of people and got to see some sweet cars aswell! Now, I couldnt bring my compturd since it's not fixed yet and I wouldnt wanna run my e36 coupe since its too nice. Therefore, I got to borrow my friends ride which made my cars look bad. You will see what I mean Here u go. Completely stripped interior, left the dash but took out the unnecessary bits like AC and stereo and what not. Has a pair of Recaro Furious SPG's, hydraulic handbrake, naughty shitknob an to top it of a 427cui Ford Racing V8 with 650+hp under the hood. Recipe for greatness! About the pic, this was taken the day we(me and some friends) left for the event. We met at a parkinglot therefore the parkinglot pics. Anyways we got going as soon as the pic was taken. Loaded the GS with tools and useful things to have. We got to the track at 4am in the morning which was too early. I mean it was open but only for the salesmen too get their booths up. So we decided to sleep a couple hours. The driverseat in the GS makes for a great bed! Next day(saturday) we did some shreddings of tyres, me in the $WAG13*wink* and the rest of us in their cars. More of that coming next part. I saw this beauty the first day and I even got to snap this pic. The owner was really chill and even let me drive it for a bit. Makes me thirsty for a s13! Reminds me alot of my old 200sx. Loved it to bits! This mx5 got down dirty! The guy was bouncing on the revlimiter a bunch of times so the NA8C really had to work! End of part 1. Will hopefully do part 2 tomorrow! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

So, I got the Altezza back EARLY from Greg because pretty much half the car was already painted lol. I LOVE the result. It looks so sexy. I threw her onto the rolling road, and she's got a whole 575 hp. I think its a bit of a sleeper, but one look at the HKS intercooler, and you know xD @Mexidrift, I'll have to think about cuz the S15 is my "thrasher" for now, even though I've gotten way better at drifting. Gonna go ahead and swap the LS9 from the Sport Quattro into it.
