@tomaukz: paint it black; Yes it's a common color but kinda fits to a roaring dragster. Also take the bumpers off. You don't need them on the strip and are weight you don't want to have.
With the S13 basically ready for a time attack (team name? @lajen) i continued working on the colorful bug. I got the bumpers, side steps and refurbished RECARO seats. Also cut some holes in the front fenders for the little grills. They are for cooling the brakes. I just need windows and the complete lights.

New update on the Pissed Pinto
  Engine work (in terms of simple stuff) is complete. I've taken off the whole Borg-Warner turbocharger setup i had and im replaceing it with a more profesional setup.  Got the wheelie bar fitted, looks sweet :D. I havent gotten the matching forged rims for the front yet, but i have bolted in a new recaro seat and got rid of the old stock ones. It's in primer, and as of now im torn what to paint it. I dont know if i should make a wrap for it or just paint it one color. Someone suggested black which would be nice, im also thinking Plum Crazy, a Green, or some sort of dark Red.

So after some thinking and looking around on Google, i finally picked out a color which I liked. It's called Arctic Blue Pearl. Bought the paint, clear coat and all equipment needed, and got my friend which works with these kind of things to do the repaint for me, because having it done professionally at a shop would be much more expensive, something which I couldn't have afforded. But I'm pretty happy with the result.
  Now all that was left, was to find some new wheels. Looked around on some pages, found many rims that was nice, but I found one which I thought would be perfect for this car and the color. It was a set of 18 inch Advan RS in black with brand new low profile tyres. Had to adjust the ride height a bit both front and rear. I am pretty happy with the result, it looks nice, stands out a bit, but not too flashy.

Ok, hm, new suspension kit already in my Fiat, the Volk TE37 are already on it too, now, I need new seats, steering wheels, maybe a rollcage, etc.
Oh, btw, i'm looking for an Alfa Romeo Bialbero, anyone knows where I can get one in Valo City or Pudsey?  Oh, I need a new muffler too.

Cellphone photos, but update regardless.
 Last picture of Rotary in.  Two days later, welcome 6.2L LSA crate motor which has been modified to run both E85 & pump gas. Wiring will be finished soon and then tomorrow we'll see if it turns over and drives under it's own power. Estimated 580HP on ethanol tune, supposed 556HP stock on premium pump gas. |

Picked up a worn out S13 running a Shimutshibu, and of course im going to drift missile this bitch
  Replaced door and decided to do away with the pignose  Got some Volks for the front and moved the OEMs to the back  Hooned a little too hard lol  New Silvia front, Red bucket and Kouki taillights. Rattle canned the fenders but ran out before getting to the hood and bumper    Planning to either swapp it with a SR20 or CA18, haven't decided yet. Till next time, stay hood. |

My 1998 Alpina B8 4.6. Cruiser/weekend driver , stock engine/trans , body & interior (but it was fully optioned , including M-Sport trim). Full suspension rework , Vstanced arms , H&R Club Sport shocks/springs , Brembo BBK front & rear.
I'm going to build an AE86 (the car should arrive today) , and an E36 , both street racing cars. For the E36 , I'm undecided between building this Alpina , or look out for a 325i / M3 to modify (they have the M42 inline-six , some of them have a fresher M44 swapped from a crashed X3 , but I'm thinking about an RB26 swap. Idk about an S54 swap , I should see the availability of an aftermarket shortblock , a stock one would be short-lived). Suggestions ?   #E36Love #B8 #CrapPhotos #CrapGarage |

Here she is, the Pissed Pinto in its fresh new green paintjob. This has got to be one of my favorite builds
   I remember when this thing was turbo'd and i was gonna build it as a promod car. Turns out it was gonna be a gasser in the end. I got the truck axle for the front from a , you guessed it, truck. I also decided to go Chevy with the motor :D. The engines a 383 big block bored and stroked to a 396. I also got a custom Edelbrock top end and a Hilborn MK4 injector kit. It all turned out great, and i really like the look and stance of it.

Hey guys, my name is Ervinas and i just arrived to Valo City in my Nissan 200sx. I have fully upgraded the running hear but apart from that, the car is completely stock. I have many ideas for my car but I would like to keep it simple and not too ricey. Primarily I will be upgrading the engine because at the moment it is a piece of shit.

a few things went down with my sexy GS300 in the last 3 days, i've change the whole suspension system ! i've added a camber kit with H&R ultra low coils and springs, brand new Hayashi Racing mags and a new set of tyres, also, i installed the new Origin body kit, which is ultra boner-ish ! i did a bit of engine work too, switched the stock rad for an ARC racing radiator, added a oil cooler and filter, and a transmission cooler too, the car's pretty dope right now, the turbo headers, piping and manifolds are comming, it'll arrive in approx 2 days
 and i was looking for a racing PJ for my Focus RS if anyone has one or is ready to do one for me, it'll be sick as F bcause im not able to make one my self cuz i suck thats why

So, when my HDD got infected, I lost a ton of pics of the build on my Supra, but managed to save my SLR folder. Here's the rundown on what she has right now.
     Shes totally fixed up right now, running and driving on her own, and shes got some Tein shocks and awesome Brembo brakes. Sitting on some whit steelies until my good wheels arrive, which those are a surprise. All the rust is gone and I got some nice Recaro seats. Need to source a rollcage that doesn't impede on the open roof too much. Shes making 550 hp to the rear wheels, and I think that's perfect for this kind of car and what I plan to do with it. |

I was testing the Supra , sh*t happens..
 No. More. Supra. Never again. Now I just have to build the AE86 (it's a Levin Kouki). Since turbo kits for the 4-AGE seem to be inexistent (Nitrous kits too! For the E36 I'll go with an RB26 swap. I've heard of issues with the availability of aftermarket parts for the inline-six M44 , and for the stock ones too for the S54.) , supecharging is the only route.

The AE86 is in good shape , but the 4AGE is going to be rebuilt anyway
 New suspension setup : MrSir arms , blistein shocks/springs , Wilwood 275mm drilled discs , 15" HRE C106 wrapped in Goodyear 245/35 drag radials.  Bodykit test fitting (Vertex full bodykit + quarterpanels and hood , TRD trunk & mirrors , Seibon doors and the grill from a Zenki). Also it's got tinted windows and taillights.  New deep green paint!

So yesterday I stopped by Valo's used car dealership just for a quick browse, once I got to the pack I saw the perfect drift missile project and just had to pick it up! Only cost me $1000
An almost complete shell of a Silvia S13 with Recaro seat, and roll bar installed.   But It's also missing quite a bit, like the front windshield, rear right quarter panel, a headlight and tail light, no battery, obviously no engine, no suspension except for a broken brake disc and a blown out strut.   I have some pretty big plans for this, first step is to put a brand new running gear set up on along with some wheels, I have a spare set of wheels laying around along with a set of willwood discs and pads. Also plan on swapping the whole front end with a 240sx front end and pop ups (love them pop ups) I've got an engine in mind but I'm gonna make you guys wait and see on that one. I'll update you guys when I get the suspension and wheels on |

I got the stickers on the S13 and I got a new car; I just couldn't refuse. I was cruising through Valo and came along a used car dealer which had a really nice BMW 320i (E36) Coupé. Was only 1500$ and since I have a soft spot in my heart for the E36 I bought it. It has the rims of a 2004 Impreza and I think they look kinda good on it. I daily the BMW right now which is better in gas costs. I will complete the beetle and sell it.
My plans are: -Complete the bug and auction it off -Service the engine on the BMW (kinda needs it) -Other rims on the skyline   Found out that the previous owner slapped on M3 bodyparts. Checked the VIN and it's not a genuine M3. This post was edited by Tom Diablo (2015-07-31 19:59, ago) |

Looks like it's pretty common to see higher trim parts on lower trim cars. Yesterday I saw a 320i with 328i badges , and a "junkyard" M44 from a crashed X3. I'm still searching for an M3 or a 328is.
But , the Trueno has got a new engine! 4A-GE Black Top , HKS crankshaft & pistons (stock conrods , can't find other ones) , Toda intake cam , HKS exhaust cam , Toda header , catted exhaust & N1 muffler , 4A-GZE IM and supercharger , J-Performance intercooler kit & piping , APexi air filter , HKS cam belt & filter , Greddy oil filter , SC belt and oil cooler , radiator and piping from Koyorad. E85 kit , tuned , put down 290tq (395nm) @ 6250 and 448hp @ 7000.

Damn you work fast, NikiLauda.
So I have a couple updates. 1. S13.4 is running but now has emissions & noise issues, will get sorted and then will take it for a lap somewhere hopefully tonight or tomorrow. 2. Daily news, still slow but I've done some proper upgrades to it that make it more appealing to look at (in my opinion.)   Took photos in the exact same angles as my past photos The differences on the car are as listed Imported and paint matched Euro trunk/boot, Complete Accuair V2 E-level air suspension setup 16x8 Advan A3As Westy front end conversion Clear indicators & side markers Anyone interested in a US trunk or the single circle front grille + lights? and finally, something exciting has rolled it's way into my shop.    Okay so it's actually been in the back room for about a week now losing air and slowly corroding more and more. If you've been a part of the forums for a while, you may remember my 240Z which came to a tragic end. Not the fact that it was damaged and I sold it, but that someone bought the car, threw a trash V6 in it, and made it into a drag car. Ever since then I've regretted selling that car immensely, and I finally found a chassis that is in good enough condition to build on, but not clean enough that I'd feel bad doing anything stupid to it. This will be a race car with inspiration from some of the classic Datsun race cars from the 70s. It will be naturally aspirated and will be inline, i'm just not sure what engine will be going in yet. |

Last update on the AE86 : it's for sale! Just clocked a 9.08 in the quarter , good but not enough for street racing.
New E36! Ended up buying an M3. The car is in good shape , but it's without engine/trans and on steelies. Checked the VIN , it's a geniune M3 (earlier ones , 3 liter engine from the factory). I'll keep the body stock , maybe only adding a front lip or changing the rear spoiler. I'll put in a Stage 4 RB26 crate engine , Powerglide trans , still choosing the turbos. I'll keep it full interior , maybe I will have to remove the rear seats to mount the cage.
