Really should.. I have removed the headlight stickers and got new ones and also got some windshield stickers so it looks a bit better.

Thanks anyway. Hopefully it ends up looking really nice.

So i spent some time driving the car in an empty car park and i got used to it pretty quick. It has enough power to spin and i feel as if it has an lsd or at least welded.. May be the skipping i hear when i try tight turns.
I also did find a MoTeC which makes it pop and bang, it also has anti-lag so i tried that and i managed to get a shot of some backfire.

sticker i made but anti lag came with car. Has a MoTeC ecu

Added 1 hour 57 minutes later:

So last night i ordered an AJS Tubular Manifold so i can finally mount the turbo i was given from my friend as a gift. Its a Holset HX35 and it makes big boost (Get what i did there - Adam LZ reference).

The Manifold cost me 1000 as its really high quality.

So i went to a car meet and it was pretty good to say that there was only cars 5 out..

So i had to park next to the only S14 at the meet and funny enough it was a kouki, so we had both versions on display and that S14 surprisingly had a 2JZ in it which made my SR look puny...


There was a really cool and euro looking E28 M5 parked close to us... It was bagged to f**k. Slammed and Scraping



A Blue, a really nice Blue S13 was parked away from us and was stanced as f**k. Kit was pretty custom. D-MAX all way round apart from rear fenders which were Rocket Bunny. It did have super cool RUF rims with a custom lip.



Finally was a GTS-T R32 and it was clean as they come... Super Clean Red and Fifteen 52 Tarmac's. Had some NISMO parts and had a RB26DET which was swapped in from a GTR.


After the meet i did order some parts for the zenki as my other cars are fine and dont need any atm. The civic is being used as a daily for the moment.

I ordered wider front fenders, a D-MAX bonnet and a D-MAX Roof wing as i went and removed the stock one.

All coming to a grand total of $900 (ill do finances when the parts come)

So the parts arrived but i haven't put them on the car because; 1. they are not colour matched and 2. Im doing something special with the car

So what am i doing you may ask?

Im spraying the car, in Cherry Red Pearl which was a colour from the R32 and S13.

The only parts i have finished is the Bumpers and Wing.

The car is still in primer mode atm and will be finished tomorrow around 5pm.

Cheeky Sneak Peek ;)

Its way better than the colour it came in. The guy told me it was roller painted so it was definitely needing a change

Sooo... The paint is finally done and its looking amazing, i can actually say i chose a good colour and the painter did an amazing job.
Also today came my new rims, Volk TE37-V's in white and i think that they go well and with the stance it has, its just perfect

They cost me 900 for a set and i also got a new exhaust tip which is a twin pipe and it cost me 200

Finances:
5282.5 - 1100 = 4182.5

For those who want the paint code, its AH3.

I think i made a big mistake...


So my R33 was just sitting in a garage gathering dust and my friend came over as we was working on the Zenki and he said "Are you selling that anytime soon?" and i thought to myself it will never get any better, im not using it and it was originally supposed to be a drift car but i have one now and it was just a stance machine as i would call it...

Calls were made shortly after and a tuning company near me called me and said "How much?". I thought for a long time and then replied "$7000" but thats steep so he negotiated it to $6850 which is pretty fair as i discovered the car now has a problem with the ignition as it struggles starting but the battery and alternator are fine as well as the starter so im stumped at what is causing it but that doesnt matter as its gone but not very far...

Now you may be wondering i wouldnt just sell a car and not buy another one.. Like everyone else in the world, i love S-Chassis' and already have a S14 so why not buy a S... Actually im gonna let the car speak for itself. I did buy it from a local event near me. I arrived at a drift event and was using the S14 to get used to it and i spotted a clean ass S.. across from me so i went over and the owner was pissed as the car was leaking badly from the diff and he had nothing to get home so i said ill buy it and his face just filled with different emotions, He says "excuse me" and i repeat myself and say ill give you 3k right now so you can get a taxi home... Luckily i had a trailer on hand as a couple of my friends came along so we towed the cars there and back..

The car is in the garage as i type this sadly needing a new diff altogether as its just blown its self up.

Some details about it first...

The engine is a Toyota 2UZ-FE and is N/A atm but still makes power as i had a dyno sheet given to me stating 670bhp..
Its slightly lowered and is sitting on Enkei's RPF1's in white and has a beautiful Origin Streamline kit all way round including mint fenders which arent full of rot or damaged beyond repair so im lucky with that one. Car did come with HKS Hypermax suspension and springs and does have a custom blastpipe setup.

Im just gonna post the pics and prepare for the pisstake to come..





Finances:
4182.5 + 6850 = 11,032.5
11,032.5 - 3000 = 8,032.5
