Hello everyone! My name is Kevin and i have recently moved to Osaka, Japan.
Ive recently finished school and ive also got my drivers license, im currently riding a Honda Monkeybike as i dont have a car yet, but that gonna change soon. Im a big fan of the 80's/90's era cars, espescially the Volkswagen Golf and the Toyota Corolla. I am going to check the online Auction house over at VStanced.com. Picture of the Monkeybike im driving: (When it was new ofc) Added 1 hour 55 minutes later: I have bought a project car. Its a crashed Honda Civic Type-R, with a K20 swap, which has a blown headgasket. It has been in a frontal crash here in osaka and i bought it from the scrap yard because they were going to crush it. It turns out that the front of the car is not even warped or bent in any way, but the stock bashbar need to be replaced. (The A/C and the radiator need to replaced too duh.) The plan is to replace all of the broken/damaged parts and then sell it i guess. This post was edited by pinter03 (2016-08-03 20:28, ago) |

I traded the Broken Honda Civic for an Mazda Miata/MX-5 NB. I am aware of that the engine in the Civic is expensive as hell, but its something special about this NB.
It has got a SR20 swap. Also, mad doriftooo. Im just not a fan of how the 97' Civic looks. Also, the Miata is less broken than the Civic sooo yeaah. Its only the head gasket that needs to be replaced. Im planning on boosting this miata, and im going to keep it. |

Needin' some lowLets start with the big thing shall we? I bought some KSport Kontrol Pro suspension kit(Camber arms, coilovers, etc).Now to the little things, i bought some long mouth throttle trumpets, and they sounds sooo good. I also fine tuned the carbs, the car is now running better. Planning to get some wheels soon. |

Wow 2 86's At least one's a Levin and one a Trueno, so there's a difference. That Levin doesn't look like much cause it's bone stock, but i'm sure you'll make something good with it.
