(few days later)
Thanks Robustock! It's pretty awesome. I managed to fix air suspension switch, changed seats & changed chips of the car. New seats are bride bucket seats from my old M3 build. I bought JET Computer Upgrade chip & changed most oils, now the machine runs better. I also edited rear trunk wing's rotation to 11 degrees, adds a slight downforce. Now I'm going after nice rims in few hours! Here are some pictures of the car

# Robustock : Nice deal Coprone, and nice shot with that EVO6 Pramad

thanks man! actually I was sleepy as hell when I did that photo :D
so, about the Evo, I've already got the uprated internals and it's currently on delivery now, hope it'll arrive soon so I could open up the potential that turbo has, can't wait!

btw about Coprone's STI, that is clean! love it! what rims you want to put in that car?

Quick update on my SC: Got some parts on the way. :D Picked up the suspension from DGX, (Left some money with Fred, hopefully he gave it to you) and I have a stock front bumper, a lip, some BN-Sports sideskirts, and a slightly broken quarter panel on the way. Hopefully they'll be here soon, I'm pretty excited!

So, when was coming back from buying rims, I saw Subaru & Mitsubishi part shop. Of course I went to see the Subaru shop. I found there nice Varis bumper extensions/lips. There was also Varis sideskirts, but according to my measuring, it wouldn't fit, so instead I bought Ings+1 sideskirts. Plus I bought right turbo exhaust manifold & few other parts, to give my car a second turbo in the future! Next plans I have in mind is upgrading turbo (soon to be "turbos"), maybe yellow lights & nice wing if I could find one.
After I got home & had put the parts together, I found out that my rims aren't pure black, they're slightly green. I lowered the rear "shocks" 0.8 inch for better fitment.

Anyone got a s13 hatch chassi for sale that is somewhat straight? Was out testing the 240 and managed to flip her.... FML!
Just got her done and the unthinkable happens :headbang: Im ok but the roof took some beating and the frame. it's all crooked.
I'll try to salvage some parts like the engine and the taillights. Happy they are ok since they cost a fortune!

whoa, its been a long time since i continue my story ._. (only a few days actually, duh :P )

I just came back from Bihoku. Well, the practice didn't runs well, i had some.... issues. Anyway, we captured some moments from the practice, here it is.

I start my first clean lap, i wonder how this car will be handled...


Then i do my first countersteer and the car starts to slide, it handles quite good, well actually, it's perfect...


...Until i crashes into the slope, fortunately the car was ok, i just missing a bit of front bumpers ;)


after removing the remains of the front bumper, i started again.


When i do the countersteer again, i stalled into the gravel section and driving into the slope, then, i fly. :O I was very, very lucky i didn't hit the pole, than i continue to fly and crash landed into the upper side of the track.




after 2 hours of try to pulling the car back into the track, we bring the car into the garage and headed home to take some Zs.

Did some more work on the S13 over the past couple of weeks. I got the T04Z bolted in and got the car tuned. It's now at 490whp on pump gas with 750cc injectors and a re-tune that allows me to reach full boost at around 5500RPM which isn't too bad. It's currently running at 14psi and I really hope that I don't damage any internals. I also picked up an R32 GTR driveshaft and a NISMO 4.1 locking differential as well as sheet of carbon fiber wrap that I ended up using on my trunk and on a friend's spoiler.

Monster turbo in, GT3071r out.

CF wrapped trunk and spoiler.

Well my old friend let me stay with him for a few months and he showed me his show car, an Evo VIII. He sadly has to drive it as he's in the middle of swapping the engine out of it, a 240sx. Here are some pictures I got of his Evo. Sadly neither of us had the time to go look at the 240. I also bought a '99 Mitsubishi Eclipse from a guy that need to sell it. Got it for $3,000. I'll take some picutres of it when it gets delivered.






(Btw, how do you guys think I'm doing with this?)

Well,your first paragraph doesn't really add up to me..I don't quite understand what you're saying. Also keep in mind that car builds are done with one car at a time unless you're loaded with infinite cash. I mean if you can afford 2 or more project cars then clearly you got enough cash to live in a place of your own instead of having to stay at a friend's place for a couple of months. Think of it like that.

The evo is suppose do be like a friend's that I'm staying with and the Eclipse is going to be my "daily" car as the civic really wouldn't be all that streetable.(Think that's a word.)

When I got back to town I found my lovely new rims had been collecting dust at the post office, so I went by and scooped up my jdm mesh. these are 16in, which in the front was fine but showed hella ugly wheel gap in the rear. alittle shopping around valo and I picked up a pair of H&R ultra lows for the rear. shes fitted rear nice now :)

installing the new coils:



Grocery Store fitment (just look at that booty)




Thinking about some new shoes for the nsx as well, does anyone want the gram lights in 19in?

so last night I was driving through a mountain road for a little bit of hooning, unfortunately I entering one of the corner too soon so this is what happened



yeah I hit the barrier and then the car reversed by it self and hit the flat bit of the mountain (I don't know what it's called), luckily the damage is minor but the rear left door is broken, when I took the door off, I found some pieces of the door in the back seat, it turns out that the door was snapped from the hinge and it break into some pieces, including the one that I found in the back seat, and it successfully got into the interior of the car, and the door is CF so it's hard to fix, well that's my unlucky day, but one thing that I can't understand, how the hell a door snapped but get to the inside of the car, not the outside, well at least I'm fine so that's good, after that I drive back home, safely of course, and took the front and rear bumper off and sent it to the paint shop in the morning (they can repair things like this so that's awesome), and when I back home again, I search for a rear left CF door on the internet, and luckily I found one near my house, so I go there with my mate and take the door, 500$ for that, quite expensive, and asked my mate to drop me off at home and took the door to the paint shop

and here's how it looks like now



btw, when I got back home after I bought the door for the Evo, a mailman arrived with all the Internal parts that I need to get more boost from the turbo, so I'll install it after the door and bumpers back from the paint shop

After another 3 weeks of working on the Charger: It's done! The supercharger has a hilborn EFI system on it which unlocks the whole potential of the 440 big block. I also bolted the old wheels from the cuda on the front.


Here the dyno results:(Remember: 7.2 litre engine, supercharged and racing methanol)

I like that forward lean:

Now I wanted to try something from Japan. I will make this into my daily when it's done. The big V8 engines aren't known for a high gas mileage. It's a Nissan Silvia S13 body. I ordered a suspension for it and will check the junkyard for body parts.

So what had happened to my RBE86? It's still alive. About the rear corner, I replaced it from another crashed AE86. The RBE86 is mostly just now sitting in the corner, doing no fucks. I have no idea what I'm going to do with it

I'm back in Valo now. Wanna do some Toy Hooning? xD

Added 5 hours later:

I just got back from the hospital... The roads near my garage are REALLLLYY bad... I broke the lower part of my left leg and some ribs when the steering wheel hit my chest... I tried to stop too quickly, no abs, tcs or stm, because this tow truck pulled out in front of me... The entire front of the truck was destroyed, and the legroom inside was drastically decreased nearly instantly, breaking my left leg... No manuals if I can drive... Now, until it heals, I'm stuck in a wheelchair. The Duramax was completely destroyed, but I did a number on the idiot tow truck. The other bad news is, I'm now in the market for a new shop truck... I've only got the Datsun and the FrankenLevin. I've been looking at the Saleen S331, and there's a decent used, 4wd (rare) one near here for about $50k. It's red.

Anyways, heres whats left of the truck when Fred towed it back on the rollback.





Rolls Royce amounts of legroom here -_-



And here's whats left of the tow truck. The paramedic said it's a miracle I'm still alive. I was going about 50 mph, green light when he pulled out in front of me. Nothing I could do. (idk whats up with my trees xD)



Doc said its probably going to be about a month and a half before I'm well enough to walk. He said I could get crutches on the 3rd week, as long as I'm careful.

Added 15 minutes later:

Surfing Valolist, I found a 2006 Dodge Ram SRT-10 for $30k. I'd quite frankly rather have that then the Ford/Saleen.

I GOT A BENZ!
4 cyl diesel and it's an auto, but it has potential for some stance, and i found a set of wheels for it before i even got it.


It's not perfect, but it's fixable..

I don't need anything fast, but I think I'll take a look at the Z when I'm back on crutches. Fred offered to put the old exhaust back onto the Ae86 cuz its got a muffler. He said he also has an auto trans for a 4Age, so I might look at that. Just put a stopper behind the clutch pedal and make it a dead pedal xD Thanks for the offer man!

That suspension was a pure bitch to fit and there were no brake lines so I had to make them from scratch. Took me 3 months. The coilovers are GReddy ones that are made for street use. The brakes are Brembos and the rims are 17" OZ Superleggra.


I went to the junkyard and the guy there had the 2 doors:

He said he would phone me when he got new S13s coming in.

Got out of class early again to day so I swung by the lock up to check on the Z and is s13. snapped a shot of the beautiful Z, cant wait till spring to pull this baby out.




Sadly I had to part ways with the NSX today, it just isn't a winter car and I couldn't stand for it to just sit there with no driver. I got just about what I paid for it due to the lack of miles I put on and the spoon exhaust, and while at Velocity motorsport another Honda caught my eye. That's right folks, a legit Integra type-R! we ran the vin (JH4DC231) and turns out it is one of the very neglected in Japan circle headlight models (yes they exist). it is even more special because it came in black. I am so excited to get cracking on this bad boy, the motor is a little weak due to no one driving it, so I am thinking NA k-series on this puppy

Wow, nice find on that Integra! So, I have a few choices on a shop truck. A Z71 Silverado, a 2006 Ram SRT-10 , Saleen S331, or, finally, a El Camino. Leaning more towards the SRT because v10... and fast xD

@dxg What year is that ElCamino? I sold the Escort because I needed money, and now I need a cheap work truck thing, and the ElCamino sounds interesting. Also, I am leaning you towards the SRT too.

Hi people (again)! This week I won a warehouse/garage from poker game! (IN REAL LIFE: It's not unrealistic as my great grandfather's brother won 3 plots with house in poker game long time ago, fun fact, he was also named Kasper). I live in Valo city now, moved from Arizona to California. The garage is damn big & nice.
Plus I bought my new neighbor's Volvo for 200 bucks as he just had that car sitting in his backyard. It's Volvo 242, with some i4 diesel engine (imagine it's volvo engine not BB's alfa) what is almost blown. The car is in pretty sad condition, as few bodyparts are missing, some dents, dirt (probably more than in entire America) & rust. It had been used for "offroading". Now I'm stripping the front-end so I could fix the broken chassis.

{1 month later}

Its a 70 i believe facepalm...

Anyways, i fitted the muffler and old exhaust to the frankenlevin, and its now street legal... thanks to the Exedy Clutch its an easy clutch to press down. I managed to struggle through 1st, 2nd, and, very painfully, 3rd gear, and magaged to get up to highway speeds, but on the Green Highway out of Valo, i got some seroius gawkers... people were rubbernecking at the Toy like theyd never seen a beat to shit guy driving an equally beat to shit Japanese drift car xD

Changed a front-end part from a 245 that was literally half. Next I'm planning is... swapping the engine to RB26 that I have on my 86. I'm not sure it could fit so perfectly, I still have to measure. As currently the RB26 engine is custom made for RWD (mostly diff & transmission edits), no problem with fitting in 242, but the thing is I want to make the Volvo ALL WHEEL DRIVE! (so even the "backup" wheel in the trunk will drive)

Quick Lil update on the 240sx: I got it stripped. I took a deeper look at the damages and determined that I should fix it.
SO I will however it will time and money. I would work on it myself but since it's busy on work I almost everyday need to stay
longer making me more and more tired therefore I took it to a shop to take care of the bodywork for me.



Anyway this is how it's sitting right now. I sold the Volk's for a nice buck. Even though I kinda regret it now, I needed to do it.
Simply to get some extra funds for the rebuild. I'll be sure to get some nice rims for her once it's time!



AND..... Since i'm a hoonigan and happens to have some good friends, I got to borrow my friends AE86 while my car is getting rebuilt.
He decided to study in America and were not able to bring the car. And since he sold his house he had no room to store the car so I let him
store it in my unit.

Basically, when i first got it it had no engine. Eventually we will find a 4A-GE for it but for now the 2jz from my crashed 240sx will have to do!

-->1 month and 2 weeks later<--
After 2 weeks of searching craigslist I found a RB26DE for the S13 and this is how it looks like:

It will get a turbo kit as soon as it arrives here. The guy from the junkyard called me and he got 2 S13 in: A blue one that got rolled and a black one that has a smashed front end. Unfortunately the lights were gone and the glass was smashed, too. The blue one had some recaros in it but they were worn as hell and are in an upholstery right now.

So this is one of my project cars. I bought this jacked up 240 SX from someone who wanted to turn it into a rally car, but couldn't because he didn't have enough money. It was sitting on his yard. I bought it, cleaned it up and fitted the bumpers that I bought from 2jzCookie.



It's missing a lot. The engine bay is empty, and the interior has nothing.
Then, I tried to lower it, but disaster!

The rear collapsed and the tire popped! I successfully lowered the rest, but now I need a new suspension for the rear. And a set of off road wheels, I'll make this a rally cross car! :D

Thanks! :3

My whole time has been spent for doing engine swap. I loaded RB26DETT off from 86. Biggest problem when fitting engine into Volvo was the intercooler. When the engine was in, intercooler couldn't fit so good, so I modified the front-end & shortened intercooler's pipes. Now it fits, sort of. I ripped off the galaxy sticker from the head cover & re-painted it to black. Tomorrow I'm going after some stuff to create my Volvo AWD! My friend who's quite AWD nerd will come to help.

Here is my other project, a Maserati Ghibli Cup. Bought it from a guy who bought it for parts:


The rear suspension is collapsed, and some parts are missing. It has an EJ20 engine.

Because I have bigger plans for it, I removed the engine and placed it on the 240SX.

BIG update on the SC. It's starting to look more like a car! So far the list of updates I got since last photo posted:
Stock front bumper
Front lip
BN-Sports sideskirts
Sunroof panel
Drivers side door and mirror
Stock hood
Left side quarter panel from a drift car
Trunk
Glass completely redone
Lights (still missing the fogs, but whatever)
Bride bucket seat with Recaro harness from Craigslist
Stock steering wheel
Suspension from Dgx
Steelies from Wal-Mart

I'm now looking on Ebay and Craigslist for an engine. Thinking for now of putting a 2JZ-GE in it, just so it can be driven and I wont have to take the bus everywhere, and then once I get the body all sorted out I'll begin work on the engine!

Found some parts. Windows were hand made, while the replacement windows panels, Kouki taillight, seat, steering wheel and rear wheel were found on a junkyard.

I rose the suspension up a little bit.
