Got the wiring on the Civic done. Everything works like it has to.
@pinter: Makoto raced that Watanabe guy, too but that is some years ago. Maybe he mentioned my brother? He just got his Altezza back then so if he talked about a silver Altezza it might be Makoto's.

Oh yes! I have received and e-mail regarding my RB26! It will be at my garage on Saturday afternoon! I am so excited! The whole install should be done around Monday night, so, (DXG's Character Name), how about we have a little battle?

In other news, I am currently painting the car! it will look nice and fresh for my first run.

# kyaoru : Found this "half"-rolling S15 at a Japanese junkyard for about $2000 USD and had this imported to the United States.

Readying for repainting and found some parts from the same place (during my time there, overseas) and salvaged it off another S15 that had a wreck. Installed them, along with a steelie so it makes a stable platform to work on.

We had a LS3 set aside in a barn (not at garage) so we decided to use it, since it was laying around for nothing. Complete engine, including RWD 6-speed tranny and drivetrain. Engine mounts handcrafted (couldn't find any locally, since I wanted to have it installed in a shorter period), and so are the other pieces.

We converted the LS3 to a twin-turbo setup, running on a racing methanol.

After that, I tried to juice every ounce of power I could get out of this engine.
Dyno Results:

That powerband dosen't look healthy at all, you should learn tuning cars lol.

Well about a 2 years ago, I moved to a new neighborhood due to my work. It didn't take me long to notice this '84 M635CSi sitting outside of a neighbor's driveway on my daily commute to work. Every morning I passed by this car, and wondered if the owner would be willing to sell it.
After having enough of wondering, I decided to write a note stating "I am very interested in this car" with my phone number, and left it on the windshield hoping I would get a call from the owner. A week passed, and I had not gotten a phone call. I thought to myself "he must have not seen the note". So I decided that I would leave another note on the windshield the next morning on my way to work. Next morning rolls by, and I drive by the house, and to my surprise, the car was gone!
At this point I had lost all hope to ever be able to acquire this car, until about a month ago. I received a phone call from a buddy of mine saying "I found the car!"
I immediately asked him where the car was, and drove down to see it. Sure enough, it was the same car. As I was checking the car out, the owner walked out, and we started talking. After talking to him and letting him know of my intentions with the car, I was able to convince him to sell the car. So we ran to the bank and finished the deal. I called a tow truck and towed it to my garage.

Pictures of when I first bought the car. It was in a rough shape, but it had lots of potential.







The car had some rust and dents. I first started by doing the body work. Fixing the dents and getting rid of all the rust.
It also was missing a few body parts. I found a guy local to where I live that had OEM parts for vintage BMWs. I traveled down to his shop and picked up a used hood, front bumper, rear spoiler, and headlights.
I spent a few days choosing the perfect color I wanted, and next the car was towed out to a trusty body shop for paint. While the car was at the shop to be painted, I took advantage of the free time and found a beautiful S54 engine from a 2005 E46 M3 with 48K miles. I picked up the engine locally and started maintaining it. It was now ready to be dropped into the car.

Pictures of the car with the body work done, and back from the body shop. The paint looks absolutely stunning and better than I had imagined!











Even more excited to finish the car, I immediately started on the engine. A few days later, the engine was in the engine bay and ready for it's first start to life. Fingers crossed!









It started right up! It runs like a dream. Now onto the brakes. The OEM brakes that were on the car, were very rusty, and no longer up to the task. So it was time to swap them out. I opted for 332mm Brembo slotted rotors, and 4 piston Brembo calipers.





It was finally time for some wheels. I spent a long time deciding what wheels I wanted. I found a set of OEM BMW Style 15's. I picked them up and shipped them out to a friend to re-barrel them. He stepped them up from the original 16" to 17" with stepped lips.

Pictures of the car all buttoned up. Took it out for a drive and it was every bit of "great" I had envisioned it would be.













Also a quick shot of the interior.



I wanted to thank the following people for making this Roleplay Story possible.

JoeAlex for the '84 BMW M635CSi
Bigg Boss93 for the BB93 Stock Rimpack
Fabian for the Brembo Brake Pack
Dennis for the S54B32 Engine

^^ 6 series and this rx7 looks so good.

Great news with my build.

Managed to get another 2J, this one has forged internals, so I'm already doing single turbo swap. Manifold is on, have to wait for the turbo to arrive.



Second photo shows how IC is going to sit, so I'll have to modify front bumper to fit.

I've found a Jetta grill and headlights for cheap. (Yes, I've forgot to paint the metal bar under the grill. Shame on me.) I think it doesn't look that bad but I have no fog lights with that setup.

so all these days my house are without internet and the shop stayed closed all the week so this will be an huge post beacuse i will talk about an entire car that i built with some friends that are helping me to start my own shop that for now is only my garage with the store i work parts and some frinds
But i am looking for an place that i can real make full custom cars

So to make some marketing of my "shop" i decided tomake an real drifter car.So the next day wen i was openning the garage i saw one m3 e30 with an sell sign on the other side of the street.But i alredy speaked with his owner he told that he want restore she to full stock but he doesnt have money an he told me that she is only 2k$ but the car is simply a frame with some body partsand a suspension that only works for push the car by the garage

She came looking like this



But somefront parts have some internal rust so i stripped they off


Before the body i installed the new drift suspension and the day is gone but at the launch a alredy ordered the engine and the wheels but the engine arrived only after 2 days



And at the other day i found an full stock bodykit at a shop who's not to away from my house since it was white i installed he and one more day is gone




So the angine and the wheels has arrived and after instal just at the other day before sent she to the paint shop i decided to check the kit and she drifts fantastical


So with the engine full installed and ajusted + the paint and two days without her she's almost new but still need some fine adjustments that should be done with the time.
And heres the weirdest thing at this car i decided to get better exits i decided to make the bimmer AWD But the eletronic center diferrential allow's me to make she full RWD so dont worry.

interesting to see that you stuck with the four lug hubs on that car - lets you run some rare classic wheels! I have a few sets if you're interested, hit me up ;)

I have a serious problem with buying and selling cars quickly..I'm up to 5 cars now, the S14, two 240SX's, the R33 practice car, and the RX-7 street shark. But I still feel that my collection of cars is just not done unless I own one sedan, whether it be a Skyline sedan or a Toyota chassis. So tonight I went out and picked up another one. (the Sil80, R33, and S14 are not insured - I only pay insurance on the street 240SX and RX-7 so monthly costs are quite reasonable).

In the past, I've had bad history with JZX chassis sedans. I smashed up my first JZX100, and when I bought it back I had a nightmare getting it to start and the chassis had some serious damage. the JZX Mark II I bought afterwards was a bag of empty promises - it ran great until the first event I brought it out to and the front left tie rod failed, sending me into the wall and thus writing off that car. Since then I've stayed away from purchasing Ebisu missiles - they're all just Pandora's boxes of problems. Pictures of the two cars-

The JZX-



The Chaser-



I also had a quick flaunt with an ER34 in the past, which turned out amazing until I stuffed it into a wall.




So tonight, I decided to treat myself to a well kept Chaser. A 1996 Toyota Chaser (JZX100). This is the cleanest JZX I've seen in Valo in a long time - though semi stripped, it's manual, JZ powered, and most importantly, completely straight. It sits on Fortune Auto coilovers, running 18x10j R34 wheels with the geniune Nissan center caps (I could get some good profit!) wrapped in stretched 235/15/R18 Kumho Ecsta SP2 rubber. The motor itself is a VVTi 2JZ-GTE with factory twin turbos and a Nissan FSR530 five speed gearbox ran to an R33 rear end. The boost is fed to a no name intercooler which runs to a Trust intake.








(I buy and sell cars a lot, so I'm making an effort to stick with this current garage for a long time as I truly like these cars lots!)

Yes please sell me some wheels you hoarder! :D I'm also trying to find the stock teardrop wheels as well if you know anyone that has those.

I'm really liking the new Chaser too! Things mint and hooked up with some really nice parts, I can't wait to see what you do to it. Hopefully this one ends the bad luck streak. I've got spare 2J parts if you need them also.

Okay so this guy came by the shop today with his pontiac gto'65 and wanted me to work my magic on it as he said.
He wanted it a little lower and stiffer and he wanted some new rims on it, For the engine he wanted to change it from the v6 that's in the car now to a supercharged v8 so i gonna have to change to bigger brakes too,
He also wanted to repaint it from that ugly yellow to something else and gave me free hands with that:) i have some plans for it:)

So, the engine is in the car and assembled.

I still have lots to do before the car is ready to be driven on the mountain pass. A larger update is to come tomorrow, where i will wire everything up and start it for the first time.

I can probably sell you several sets of my retro SSR/Hayashi wheels, I have a few sets that I bought for my 240 before I decided to go five lug.

Trade you 2J parts for wheels? ;)

4x SSR MKII's, 15x9j ET+35 with 195's
2x SSR Starsharks, 15x8.5j ET+40 without tires
4x Nissan OEM Teardrops, 15x6.5j without center caps

Let me know what 2J parts you have. I'm chilling out by Pudsey today in the 14.

# marcus915 : I can probably sell you several sets of my retro SSR/Hayashi wheels, I have a few sets that I bought for my 240 before I decided to go five lug.

Trade you 2J parts for wheels? ;)

4x SSR MKII's, 15x9j ET+35 with 195's
2x SSR Starsharks, 15x8.5j ET+40 without tires
4x Nissan OEM Teardrops, 15x6.5j without center caps

Let me know what 2J parts you have. I'm chilling out by Pudsey today in the 14.

What do you want for them all?
I've got a whole engine haha pulled it from the 240 when I put the RB25 in. Everythings very lightly used, I just don't have any use for it really.
Here's a list of some of the parts I remember, I'll get a picture posted up in a few too for ya.







Oil pan isn't installed in the pics but I do have it haha

let's say all those wheels for the motor? Fair enough right? I can add cash on top if you want.
