Ended up smoking out the rear tails just for the fun of it. I also borrowed some rears from a friend because I kinda shredded my tyres lmao. WeddSport TC105n 17x9.0 -10 offset looks great.

I ended up shipping replacement body panels, lights, and windows. For the wheels i used 19x11 Work Emotion CR 2P with Pirelli P Zeros and the engine is being built to put out about 800-1000 horsepower.
 Couple of hours later i got the JUN Stroker Kit for my 2JZ-GTE with a single Greddy turbo with the engine making 935hp with 772 torque.

^that was a really quick build... That and 800-1k hp seems like a bit much for a daily. My dad daily'd the Subi, because he knows how it drove... and it was awd. That Supra just seems dangerous.

That Supra just seems dangerous.@dxg1997 I see what you mean I went to the track to see what it would run and almost ran into the wall due to the wheelspin I guess ill just make it into my Drag car and put some slicks on it. I guess im gonna have to hunt for a car to be my daily diver ive recently seen a honda civic eg6 and a mustang cobra R with no motor both under 4k This post was edited by gianpaul1001 (2015-06-01 20:31, ago) |

I drifted my 300 hp JZX, and I was scared of it. I'm petrified to drive the Subaru. I had to drive it to my own house, from his, and i pushed a little to hard and planted myself in the seat. I couldn't move for those brief 5 seconds, and when I looked down at the speedo, it had shot up nearly 120 mph. from 10 to 128, in 5 seconds. Just saying, be careful, cuz that things not AWD.

Oh by the way, I didn't manage to snap any pictures of the Cefiro today. And I'll be busy for the rest of the week so probably somewhere at the weekend, I'll post an update of my car, and hopefully a new daily. It's gonna change a lot.

Minor update on my 370Z
I just got back from a weekend in Pudsey up by Vstanced garage as I was visiting some family out there and buying these new wheels. I purchased them, got them wrapped at Vstanced garage, then after I snapped a couple photos on the way back early this morning of my new wheel set up.    These are replica 19x9 & 19x10 Dodge SRT10 wheels. This style can be found on the middle 2000's vipers & the SRT 10 Dodge Ram. I thought these wheels were cool and they happened to come up for a pretty good price in the right bolt pattern (114.3x5) as they were made for a dodge with the same pattern. The centre caps are genuine dodge caps and the wheels have a little bit of poke in the rear. I'm planning to drop the coils in the rear some more, but I don't want it to be stupid low like everything else I own. Plus then I'll have to run about -6 camber to get them tucking. What do you guys think of the wheels? I think they look good on the car but my taste is strange sometimes. |

@gianpaul: Nice cars but it wouldn't hurt to be more detailed when you build your cars. Just a hint
So here's the promised pic of my new convertible:  Yes, it's a 2001 Nissan Silvia S15 Varietta. Completely stock and a rare find. Still can't believe that I got one. My plans for it? Well, since I have my 1.8L S13 as my daily, this car will be used for sunny weekend trips. But I have 3 options: 1:Leave it as it is 2:Slight modifications; Wheels, suspension, maybe turbo 3:Heavy modification; Wheels, suspension, RB26 swap |

1) Leave it as is. It'd be good to see you own something that isn't possibly going to end up being butchered.

# Tom Diablo : @gianpaul: Nice cars but it wouldn't hurt to be more detailed when you build your cars. Just a hintthanks for the tip. Added 24 minutes later:    After sending the mustang to get painted I went on to look for a motor to fit in it. I passed through a couple of junkyards after about the fifth one i found a foxbody mustang with a basically brand new 351 Windsor motor with a BBK SSI intake setup with a stock transmission. After about 7 hours later i went to get the mustang I had it painted a stone silver. This post was edited by gianpaul1001 (2015-06-02 17:02, ago) |

You don't have to quote posts right above you, and you should remove photos from quotes unless you're talking about a specific one. (Then keep that one or two only) Thank you.

Thanks man and I know what you mean. Although a lot of what I own appears expensive, I've usually got a good price or hook ups on everything. Most of my cars I buy cheap because of crash damage or because they've been sitting. I'm a low price hunter
 I'm actually quite surprised at the positive feedback on these wheels.Added 47 minutes later: I got my girl sat lower in the rear, no more of that BMW style rake Can't keep it this low though, today was a struggle just to get into a parking lot She tucks nicely though.   Also got this dank christmas tree air freshener to keep it nice and good scented in the car.  This car is really starting to grow on me. Now how can I make a reasonable argument with myself to get a turbo kit... This post was edited by Haku (2015-06-03 03:00, ago) |

just enough to get enjoyment out of the turbo but not have to worry about maintenance would be the best choice in my opinion

Okay guys, I will be leaving Valo to study abroad for awhile, which means I'm leaving this thread until I get back.
(My PC kicked it, won't be back until I build a new one.) |

Been a while since I updated everyone on the progress of my JZX90. Sold off my Rota Tarmacs for a good price, and currently riding on a borrowed set of bronze XT7's. Got it all set up, and have the fenders on (mostly), and motor is out of the car while i dress up the 2J before dropping it back in. Can't wait to finally be able to drive my shitheap.

After another 2 weeks I finally finished the Corolla! I got the missing lights from the scrapyard here in Valo and the windows from an auto wrecker in LA. The seatbelts of the red BRIDE seat are plugged into the belt attacher of the right rear seat. It will be auctioned off and the money will be used for a new project like that.
  I'll check out the scrapyards for either a Camaro, a Beetle, an Escort or a Mustang or something along those lines. I will keep the Varietta as it is. I knew that Darren had a white one but this is a different car. |
