Mint little rexy, liking the two tone.

Added 55 minutes later:

My Mark II landed at Camden Docks this afternoon - pretty happy with this. It was 400,000 yen, to buy off my friends at Powervehicles.com (they specialize in Ebisu missile cars!).







Sat on a set of mismatched coils, Kei Office fronts and D-Max D1-Spec rears. AVS Model 6 fronts (another set to add to the pair) and Work Emotion XT7 rear wheels with mildly worn rear tires. My friend said that the 1JZ in it wouldn't start - didn't believe him so I tried. Turns out the battery was dead..motor works fine. There's some rear end damage but nothing as bad as my Chaser. Will first strip down the rear and straighten her out, then start ordering parts.

So on Wednesday morning i sold the Miata and later that night i picked up this shitbox.

Yup another s13, ya know because there hasn't been a fuckton already.
I got some parts for it on friday and started working on it yesterday and some are coming over to finish it later today. So all you get right now is a super shitty pic and when i finish it i'll get some better shots.

Le Drift Bucket 2.0 Update


Since i gave my girlfriend a BMW for her birthday, she decided that she wanted to give me something too!
When i came home after going out with my guys i was suprised with a huge package. It was heavy too.
I began opening up the package as i began to see it was an engine and it was not some random engine. It was an 2JZ!
This means 2JZ swap for the Drift Bucket! Awwww YEAH! Suprisingly, the engine came with custom mounts for the 200sx.
As i began tearing apart the engine i noticed severe damage on the exhaust pipe, #Lowlife, no wonder why my car was getting louder and louder.

The 2JZ going into the 200sx


2JZ Assembled



EDIT: I missed my 100th post milestone, lol. AND it was about Donald Trump which is even more hilarious. XD

I was downtown today to pickup some more parts that arived for the Golf and to wrap my E92.Btw there had been a few things changed since last time u guys saw it, got now the M-Tech bumpers all around, its basicly the ones from the 335i model.And right now rockin the 997 turbo rims.Imo wrap is rlly good if you have a newer car so you can protect the color with it.Took a few pics infront of the shop.









Later we ended up being in the garage and got some more parts on the car, through the week we will start probably with the suspension and then go onto the brakes to finish with that.Its lookin good.Rims shuld arive this week aswel, but need to pick up some tyres for them.

Hi guys!

For the last couple of days we took our time to do a complete inspection of the Supra. You should also take your time, because i have a lot to tell.

The engine is not really in good condition. (i already saw this when i bought it) We opened the cylinder head and it was full of oil, dirt and such crap. There may be more problems with the engine, so we will rebuild it and replace the parts that are in bad condition.
When we removed the engine, i noticed one thing that the previous owner didn't mention. There was some rust in the engine bay, which wasn't visible before.
I was a little scared... i removed some upholstery and...

There was rust. A lot of it. The car must have been parked in a humid place for a long time. It's just asking for a new paintjob.
Meanwhile i ordered aftermarket front and rear bumper for 1500€, because the stock bumpers were barely holding together. The sideskirts were recently replaced by the previous owner.

The next day we took the Supra to the paint shop. Fortunately the rust was not so bad, no welding was needed, but there was a lot of sanding to do.

The car is now completely rust-free. :)

It's primered and ready for painting.

What color should i paint it? Any suggestions?
If anyone wants the wheels, you can buy them for 300€.

So small update for today, I bough and replaced the suspension on the Victoria with some parts found in a shop and the junkyard. It still needs an actual suspension system, but that'll do for now...
Since I'm going to only keep the white roof, I took off the doors and the trunk to clean the stickers and paint them all black to match the rest.

Regarding the Celica, I took off the scratched parts, and I'll probably have the car sanded. I don't know what colour
I'll paint it. Also, after looking at it better, I discovered it was right hand drive!

All this got me curious. The car was resting for months, probably a year, it's RHD, and it had a well tuned engine, albeit seized. Couldn't be just a simple build!
I decided to talk to the owner about this, ask about the actual story, and not the simple "It got stolen once" story, because that's not really believable.
He said he built it in an attempt to challenge a Baby Blue and Orage Ferrari F355, also known as "The King of Speed".
At first I thought he was joking around. Did he really mean that guy who conquered East Valo?
Many people tried to replicate his speed on various cars, but nobody really succeeded. He confirmed to me that it was a F355 with a Gulf painjob
and that its speed was faster than anything anyone has ever seen. He said he was racing against him until his engine messed up and he slid into a wall.
That explains the mess on the side... All this got me worked up to meet "The King of Speed", or as magazines called him, "Valo's God"
I dug up to see the magazine I had bought long ago...

To think that this mere Celica went against that very Ferrari... I'm determined to meet it!
It's a shame that magazine is dead now... Heh, Shelby Cobra Concept review? Wow...
Anyway, that's all for today. Expect more activity from me!

Been busy, scooby is finally home and been trying to tune engine since it runs too rich and rough. Haven't had a lot luck since guy I got scooby from "rebuild" engine with his two left arms... :facepalm: Probably I'm just going to get stock EJ205 and build it up a bit for ~400whp. On good news side, got some local tuning magazine to feature scooby. For now i have few photos they allowed me to share with you. Gonna have more photos when feature comes out.

# Facepalm :
I've actually remembered that magazine. There was an issue about the Veyron being beaten that made it to Japan. Also read an article about a guy with a Golf that was very similar to mine. That fella stuffed a rotary in it and called the finished product "Rolf".
Anyway, with a (somewhat) sane car to drive I want to do something insane. I have 2 major ideas:
-A Civic with a S2000 drivetrain: Should be possibe to do since the S2k is quite compact. Civics are so plentiful around here that it should be easy to get one for cheap.

-A rotary powered BMW: I like german cars and I have the chance right now to get a N/A 13b for a decent price. Maybe I am lucky and I find a BMW that is already imported and not too expensive.

Hello guys, Chris Rudnik here... Wait what? How the f*** Miata was able to move out?

The secret lies under the hood.

-Pop the hood, said Brian.



-Oh, 2JZ, no shit...



-Ok, F20C, no shit, ITB's, 32 gear transmission, stock elsewhere.

It's really wide now with front fenders on.



New rims are possible. Maybe, different sizes, wider in rear and front with huuge spacers. (Tuerck fitment yo)



I'm following that booty.

In all seriousness, thanks to everyone who came out to help with this thing. She came out pretty good.


Got heavy ass Wilwood brakes, RPF1s wrapped in Advan Neovas.


Also, I got it painted on Sunday.


Although, I'm not really feeling the grey. Probably should have asked someone to PS it different colors.

Ehh, still feeling the wing and fastback game.

Hi guys!

I've remain silent this last week for a good reason...

I'm really proud to present you my own import/tuning/paint shop

I already sold some imported parts and one car (remember the red Kenmery) and now i decided to settle down and be my own boss as a car mechanic.

Tonight i'll organize a big opening party, feel free to come with any car you want be it US, Asian or European

And for a better show, here's my first imported car for sale :

Fully restored 1957 Chevrolet Belair powered by a N/A LS3 engine, sitting on genuine Torque Thrust rims with white walls tyres.

24 month guarantee, full service done, brand new tyres, battery, better than new car! Come see it!



Also a friend asked me to build him a unique Miata with a very high credit limit... So, here's the project car :

I'm back with a average update, I parked the 240 at the house in the garage, its been having a lot of problems lately including a misfiring piston, but that is not the case, I bought a new Blue Top Levin with quite a lot of rust and front end damage. Best thing is I got it for $2,500 and it runs mintly, I have quite a lot of sanding to do and then a nice repaint. Not ridiculous, but its possible for all of it to be done with a little help XD. I'll update as soon as I do.

So... Remember how I said I didn't have much planned for my Prelude? Well, that is no longer true, as I have sold my RSX, and got my Prelude an LS1 motor, springs/shocks, wheels, front bumper, and roof rack. It's pretty dope imo.

Well that's completely realistic..

So my good friend Lewis (who did my graphics on the 240) finished his S14 last night.







Currently 2JZ powered, but he has a dressed up RB ready to drop in.

Expect a photoshoot later on.

So, the Mustang has had a bit of engine work done. What have I had done, one may ask...
Well,
-New Cylinder heads
-Electric water pump
-New distributor
-Custom sheet metal intake
-New fuel injectors
-New headers

I also fitted my custom exhaust AND painted my sideskirts! We haven't put the car on a dyno yet, but that is to come soon.

It is expected to make around 375 horsepower...

Thinking about getting something a little cheaper for daily maintenance. The Camino is getting really heavy on the wallet. So Im considering buying a 240 ive been looking at for a while. If anyone with a decent knowledge about the S-Chassis feel free to come along when I go to see it.

S Chassis is honestly not that great if you want something cheap. Shit is guaranteed to break unless you find a cherry which is super unlikely.

So I've been driving my daily a lot - no posts since nothing new's been done to it since now. But I gave it a little love yesterday.



I swapped S14 running gear on the car for the hubs mainly - then I put on one of my multiple sets of AVS Model 6's, these being 17x9.5J all around.



Also dropped it a little on Tein lowering springs. Might buy legit coilovers later.
