Hello, my name is Ole and i come from Norway. I recently moved to Valo City.

With me i have brought my Daily Driver, a 1997 Volvo 855R.


It's sitting on 18" S60 R-Design rims and lowered with air.

I also brought my project car, A 1968 Volvo Amazon 2-door. Pretty much mint condition and stock, except changed front/rear seats and missing engine.




Not sure if its going to be static or air yet, and i'm still wondering on wheels. But i like it clean and classic.
Engine will be a B234 with webers (i know its not in the game, but i'll pretend it is)

Planning to do some work on the Amazon later today, so will come a new post shortly :D

Hi. I'm still stancing & fucking my cars up... What cars do I have now? Still my S14a & S13. About S14a, I bought new rims, spoilers etc small things.
And about my S13, it's completely different now. I went from red to beige, changed front-end, bumpers & rims. I don't think the S13 is so cool now, I went too far with modding it. I think I'm "converting" it back to original. Sorry if I didn't add much info, I'm too lazy at the moment...

Hey there people!

The 240sx is back from Gregs place. I went all out with a custom colour for the car. It looks almost identical to Nissan Juniper green metallic colour although I would say darker! I let pictures handle the talking!

My Driftworks hydraulic handbrake arrived today aswell so will be fitting that soon aswell.

PLANS:
Hydro Install
Weld diff or get a LSD
Go over engine( change gaskets, replace seals if needed)
Get a tyre sponsor
Engine tuning
Fabricate exhaust
Posssible TT swap(or crank the boost up)


Have some pictures would yah?

ayy me rude Prelude m8z
I bought a new suspension for it. Now all that is left is a paint for white parts and new wheels and done.

Also new suspension for F355. It's now lowered and one step closer to complete:


  • Prelude 80% Complete:
    New Suspension
    New wheels required
    Paint for white parts
    Car is not named "The Phoenix" any more because it's a shitty nickname
  • F355: 95% Complete:
    New engine...

    i have to say the theard is rlly good now, everyone slowed down with the builds and imo it makes it more interesting to read and see what people did.We are now on 1 site per day, and a month ago we were 3-4 sites per day so i think the realism police did a good job here.This topis is now back how it was on the begining.

    BTW, about my replacement for my daily, well i love subies, and i want it back.I will post more details latter.

    Hey guys, I'm back from a long trip to San Francisco, went to a dead relatives grave to give flowers out like every year, the good thing is I drove the new Viper there, on my way there, I stopped by a local car meet spot, called the Low Riders, they were friendly, I was technically the only guy with a bagged Viper, but hey Haku helped me out with a special build, this car was actually a memorial for my dead relative and I decided to make his bagged Viper a reality, but of course he isn't here to see it. I just have to get the paintwork done, and I'm still into more business. Enjoy the porn. XD

    @smokiegun that Viper is looking amazing and way to think out of the box with going with bags. I am sorry to hear about your relative , you have chose an excellent way to honor them

    Update!

    so as you guys know I recently sold my supra in hopes of buying a drift car so I could get into drifting. Well, I have finally found one.. sort of. Give a warm welcome to my Mazda! Shes happy to see you guys :))





    I spotted this baby on ValoList yesterday with 143,000 miles on the old 4 banger. The Lady I bought it from kept it in excellent condition, but just got tired of driving stick all the time. I had my buddy take me all the way out to the dessert to me her! she runs the motel out there. She had the rag top redone about 6 months ago, the only thing needing replacement is the serpentine belt. it makes that horrid squealing noise upon startup. Thankfully that fades away when you start driving, because It was a long drive back to the house. Once I arrived at home I immediately rushed to my computer to tell you guys, as well as get some basic coilovers on order. Looking forward to hitting up some drift events soon!

    Thanks man! I thought I would put bags on it since I can lift and or lower it when I drive, and I wont need to adjust unless something happens. Glad to see you sold the supra and bought the new miata! Welcome to your new home little Miata!

    With the very helpful opinions of everyone who answered my question about wheels for the S4, I finally made a decision :rolleyes:



    R8 rims all around, decided to keep it OEM+ although the Gallardo's would technically be in the family too.

    By the way, that Viper looks great :D

    Oh, one final thing. This is (probably obviously) the new daily. Do you know what that means? Only time shall tell, look forward to something.

    DXG and I modified the eangine bay so it'll take the rotary engine. Fits in pretty good although I had to cut a bit on the chassis for the pipes from the intercooler. Turned out that the engine was more modified than just a bigger intercooler; It is peripheral ported and has a modified ECU (Which I got as well). It's not wired in and the fuel lines aren't hooked up, either. The car needs a new exhaust, too since the stock pipe is rotten to hell.

    It'll get a modified MX-5 rear axle + driveshaft so It'll be RWD. (I never intended to make a FWD rotary XD ) The motor isn't hooked up so it can be removed rather quickly. AND it's not a twin turbo. It's a sequential turbo setup. (Also noone was nagging when I had my 4A-GE RWD Golf...)

    Well, It seems I finally get back to Valo and everything has gone to shit. Makes sense, East Valo always has sucked. Anyway, seeing as the only car I still have in Valo is a white eclipse with a busted engine I won in a race, I'll have to drive this around for awhile until I pick up a new engine or a cheap project.

    East Valo doesn't suck at all mate. You probably were in the suburbs of E.V because that's the only place you can see an Eclipse.

    My new Daily

    So as you guys could read, my Daily Impreza got stolen (mod f*cked up my SLRR) and since i am a suby fan i wanted a Impreza again.Since my insurance didnt got me alot money cause not all of my mods on the previouse Impreza were legal i got the insurance for the car as a stock one.I got a few more bucks to the pile and i went and bought myself a new daily.













    Its a 02' Subaru Impreza Wagon WRX (bugeye).Its haveing a stock EJ20 engine with 85000km on it.I searched for a clean shell so i dont have to do bodywork on it, cause i need the car now, not in a month or more.As you know me it is my daily but i love them suby's and i will do some stuff on the car so it looks how i like.

    So I went from expensive drift car looking to cheap beater... Because my rear was TOO wide, I removed overfenders that I had bolted on before. There were several holes in chassis after that, but I managed to fix it by welding, bogging & sanding. I cut a small piece of rear quarterpanel from my missile S13. After fixing the rear panels I lowered the height a bit & installed Longchamps. My Pignose style bumper will arrive in few hours.

    i liek dem rims Coprone, they suit the car really good.

    update update update!
    Finally got the parts i needed for the blacktop! A piggyback adjustable ECU, Downpipe, pipe towards the exhaust tip and a new exhaust tip from TODA.
    ofcourse i mounted those parts right away :D wasn't that much of a deal to mount it just a few bolts, 3 gaskets and a rubber for the exhaust tip. 30 minute job :)


    also managed to pick up a used Vertex rear bumper with a little bit damage on the way back home and mounted that on the Eight-Six.

    I did something i normally wouldn't do but i couldn't resist to do it. As i was trying to fiddle with the settings in the ECU to get it running a bit more stable stationary, i revved it up a bit towards 3k rpm, the chills went up my spine as it growled, wow that sounded so good i took it out for a spin on the Touge, the car has no insurance and isn't street legal because it needs to get registered with the Blacktop. didn't drift her because i was to afraid to damage the engine since i'm still fine tuning her.

    Now i just need a taillight and the fine tuning and i can go towards the MOT to get it road legal.

    So, I bought a new workhorse: Chevy apache. I am still thinking on paint and wheels, but the base thing (engine,suspension and stuff) is done. INB4: this plate is not on its real place because it is attached to trunk for some reason, and plate on trunk is more realistic than plate on bumper moving when trunk is open :p)

    The coilovers came in today, and just in time too! Tien sideway masters all around. for now they are kept in factory settings, but that surly will change once I start to dial a setup in.



    After install I was able to get some track time at one of Valo's open track drift meets. this week it was at MPI drift track a few miles north of North Valo. Here's a pic during inspection. Shes got those sleepy eyes today



    I wasn't just there to show off either, I was there to learn. I had an instructor with me for a few laps, but then he let me loose on open track with the rest of the guys. My poor little Miata couldn't keep up with the LS, SR, 2J, or RB swaps. may be looking into a turbo kit soon. Also. I was having trouble getting the back wheels out. a new diff (or welded one) is definitely on the list. Pics on track. I ran out of rubber about noon and had to bust out the spares with bald tires for the rest of my runs

    Nothing much to say over the last month or so. The BRZ still looks the same as before, but with some stickers. I actually enjoy daily driving it instead of my actual daily car.

    Will look a lot better with a fresh coat of paint on those fenders though ;) :))

    Added 11 minutes later:

    An update from myself

    I was going to keep this to myself for a little bit longer but I really can't help myself so I'll post a bit of a teaser.



    This is the RB20 that came in my R32.



    This is the RB28 that came out of my R33, now running a Garrett GT4202R on "low" boost (16 PSI)



    As a hint of the power that this car is capable, it dyno'd in at an average of 870HP. That's 16 PSI (It'll be turned up to about 50 for max capacity) and an E85 tune, all to the rear wheels.

    It's properly scary and needs a lot of adjusting.

    By the way, RB20 for sale, 375HP for $1400.

    Soo, i have got done some more work on the Amazon.
    Desided to go static, and the engine is finaly in the car :D





    And the engine, Volvo b234f (2,3l. 16V), rebuildt with weber's, forged piston's, connection rod's and high RPM camshaft's.. Got around 450HP at the rear wheels.




    Desided to go for Diamond Racing wheels, did not really like the silver rims so i changed them for some black Diamond Racing rims.

    Nice, another Cressy in Valo.Hope to see her on the road soon, cause mine took alot of time cause some parts needed to be ordered from Japan and it took to damn long.Good luck with the build.Here some pictures of my Cressy when she was done.
