FINALLY LICENSE PLATESS <3
Today I woke up around 6 a.m and went to the local DMV where I finally got my plates, no big deal, two holes and two screws, after that I went to EbisuImports Portugal to ship some things
Also got some camber, no big deals! First pics of the day, with license plates and camber :). LATER THAT DAY... Went to burn some rubber with the MX-5, great to see it running like a beast, after that I cleaned the whole car in the garage :). Pics... This post was edited by lobocxl (2016-08-07 16:25, ago) |

Good and bad news...Today, I had a great day... First went to one local drift track to rip some tyres, it went amazing, saw a few beasts there, one of them I had a closer look, amazing car, amazing skids. The MX-5 went good, no engine problems neither leaks, even though I think I have to get shorter gears... Who knows one day eheh.  Met a guy at the track called Gustavo, he owns a Mazda MX-5 2016, but... this one is a special one, laying on Rotiform and Bilstein coilovers. Not forgeting rocketbunny kit :D. I was like     After being with Gustavo, I went to get some gas...  ...and then went to a local hypermarket, always speeding and doings some skids, I was inspired what can I say...  On my way home one of the skids went bad, and I crashed into a traffic sign, no big deal, I checked if I was fine and if I didn't cause any other accident, luckily no! (*Uff* Time to slow down atleast in open road)  The only damage was the Bumper, luckily one more time! I kept with my way home, this time a little slower... It'll run with a broken bumper meanwhile I don't have another one. ( If Anyone has one pls contact me.

# GoverningNick : Aww, really? Thanks! <3Yeah, you're welcome. New rims finally arrived!
I was at home when I received a call from the local Mail Company saying that my package from USA arrived, I bought myself some authentic OZ Turbo wheels, in second hand, but they're in mint condition! Almost perfect. Also bought a set of 2nd hand Advan Tyres. Well, since the crash my car it's a bit dirty, I'll wash it later on. I also ordered a new bumper and a hydraulic handbrake from Ebisu Imports, one more time, Ebisu doesn't disappoint me. Waiting the new parts to arrive... 22th August the car will be resprayed at Phonexius garage ( His RP thread ) in Germany, uff... Long journey until there! |

# Jdm_Racer : nice fitment bro Thank you homie. Today was a good day!Today I had lots of fun, first of all as I woke up, went straight to Norauto, a friend of mine that works there said that they had a pair of Bride Zeta III seats for sale, even though they're in second hand they're in pretty good condition, paid v$950 for both. Also sold my steelies with bald tyres for V$175.   After I mounted the seats in the Miata, I went for a cruise...  Stopped by to take a interior pic for ya'll. (Loving the new seats)  On my way to the Docks made some amazing skids.  Arrived to the docks and met with my friend Ricardo, he owns a purple S13 that is powered by a twin turbo LS3.   Me and him changed cars for a lap, wow, I guess I fell in love with cars once again. And amazing skids.

Okay it's time to get going with a new chapter in my life, since I was a kid I always dreamed about traveling and meeting other people's cultures, and I guess it's time to chase my dreams, I saw that it was time to chase my dreams, because I had an undeniable proposal on the MX-5, a guy offered me v$15.000, and I accepted, I know I shipped a Hydraulic handbrake and a bumper that never went to the car, but the new owner will have it, he paid v$15.000 for MX-5 as it was plus the two packages that I didn't receive, and that totals 14950, and we made that 15000, great business in my point of view. I've packed my things and I am leaving Portugal at 8:30am, 03:23am currently (kinda excited about traveling). Although I wouldn't leave Portugal without showing you all my brother's car, Seat Ibiza, it was the last car I driven in Portugal eheh.
(couldn't take a picture showing all the car due my brother's privacy ( he didn't wanted me to show it to ya'll ) )

New Chapter ... JapanGot my ass on a plane directly to Japan and arrived two hours ago, I rented myself a Smart Fortwo meanwhile I don't buy any car, it was only v$30 (converting Yen to Dollar). (it's valo city map, I don't have any japan map where I can cruise, anyway this is only the start of the RP, most of the RP will happen in a garage, sooner or later. Had to edit the image from left to righ, bc the smart is LHD and I wanted it to be RHD, so as the cars and the lanes xD photoshop makes magic, it's only to be more realistic.) Took a lap around my new town... Kyoto. Saw my first beast running, a GTR, whooaaah. I don't know what car to pick yet... still thinking, the gmt it's fucking me up. |

Sweet Japan, home of the rising sun.I met a guy a few months ago in Portugal called Dennis, he is from the USA but lives in Japan, he was spending his holiday in Portugal... So I met with his today, early in the morning, I went to check his S14 and he also hooked me up with an job interview at an local workshop, where he also works...Been loving japan, always good cars passing by, also some fresh meat *cough* good girls, eheh. In the end of the day I bought myself an Honda Civic EJ2... Yeah my friend Dennis is the owner of the blue S14, powaaaah, well kinda sweet garage, they're currently working on two AE86  Well yeah the car needs an paintjob and some good fitment, because last owner placed tons of camber in the rear and almost no camber in the front, yeah I was like "WTF" too... The car is sweet although, it has stock engine 1.4, this will be my daily, so I'm not going to go mad on this one, looking for an project car tho'!   -750 Honda Civic EJ2 |

# pinter03 : Has the whole suspension fallen apart? Holy shit, thats some lowww shit No eheh, thanks god for that doe'! Yea it is ''kinda'' low ahah. Oh Japan... Sweet Japan.Well today I didn't made too many, because I already got myself a work, yes, working with Dennis at the workshop, it's lit to work here, good people, even though I don't understand the most of the words that they're saying but yea, half english half japanese thats how we chat eheh. Today I bought myself a roof wing, a pair of spoon mirrors, and a right headlight since the car came with one aftermarket and one stock (idk what the ex owner was thinking...), it was dirty cheap, found it on a junkyard, started to sand down some parts to prepare the car for the respray, also took the bumper off I broke it in a curb, yeah right hand driving it's kinda awkward to me yet. Also my old boss sent my my v$950 from the last week of work. Took the stupid amonts of camber and got the coils a little more upper, it was sinking LOL (I'll now use v$ Weekly payment rules I didn't knew about them)    -20 Right Headlight -50 Roof Wing -30 Spoon Mirrors |
