So this week i actualy decided to make a progress on the shop as i was wiring the Ls3 i decided to wire the z32 and it is almost complete now it just need's a new map but i'll catch on that in a z32 exclusive post. As you guys saw too the r32 shell got finally reaveled.
Also got finaly a customer project on the shop. Basicaly in the begining of the week the guy that i got the miata seats called me and told me that he's nephew was searching someone to build a driftcar for he and he remembered ww talked about my shop afther that i sent it the shop details. the next day the boy showed up and afther he saw the S13 and the other car he made his mind, and afther lot's of talking we decided on a V8 e36 build for max reliability and because it is a great plattaform for drifting. As he's starting on drifting the first stage of the car will be just a basic thing so he can start laerning and he and the car will progress togheter. As for funding he gave me 15k because i am bought the car -V$1700 318ti because its better weight distribuition and the engine will be the ls1 i bought last week with minor improvements.
As my main star the s13 is almost complete and just waiting my custom color and the rest of it's body so it can just be putting things back togheter.P.S also bought a new driftcar but i will talk about it tomorrow.

New Daily-Drifter

So i just F*cked up, Friday i was looking at a craigslist indexer for fun searching 240sx's and found this nice ass ride for a dirty cheap value, The car is a 1989 Nissan 240sx wich was on it's second owner a guy who owned it for the highschool and when it went for college in australia he lend the car to it's grandma wich didn't took much attention on the oil and blew the Ka24, Afther when it got back it started doing some stuff to the car like sr swaping it but never had enough time and money.A few weeks ago it blew the head gasket and overheated just in the time the guy got a job oputunity and canada and decided to sell the car ASAP.
Wich was at this time i got in the history afther founding such a good car for a dirty cheap price i knew i will buy it and afther some negotiation we agreed on 1800 for this sexy pignose. At the way back towing it with the stang, i found nice set of enkei's 92 for couple of bucks and i needed to have they for the 80's vibe i was looking, as they were on my way i just made a quick stop for grabbing they. And now afther resurfacing the head, replacing the gasket fluids and a new coat of paint the car is ready for my daily use and the best it costed less than 3000 Bucks.
Now i just need to solve the fitment and find a nice rebuild kit for the engine to start with the heavier mods.

So details, details and more details that's everthing i did on the 240 while planning the E36 build and the final steps of the s13 driftcar. By first i started with installing my 215/25 direzza tyres (old were 215/40) and then moved to fabricating the spacers and deciding what suspension setup i should use, as i am going for a jdm 80's look i decided to add a little of camber needed to make other setup for track use since the it still will be my drift car.

On the exterior i just re-installed my Trim and did a allingment on the car gaps as the old owner actualy bought the sharknose fenders i neeed to make a lip of a aliexpress tape to make the bumper sit flush on the front. Also decided to install the vented side windows my friend give me to increase how the two tone stand's ,next step rear overhaul. As for it's engine i am still choosing the last parts to order before the rebuild just so i can extract the max of it with ryeasonable safety.




I also need to choose a plate for it but i currently am out of ideas so open for suggetions.

# Soju : Those mesh wheels look really nice.

Thanks dude, Also good luck on your clean s13 build

So finally i decided to go to the dmv and get the car registered with an oficial plate, but when i was there waiting to get my plates a girl showed up asking if someone's was the owner of a white nissan, at the moment i just said loud and clear "F*ck that's my car" we went to the parking lot and waht happened was just that she was trying to park her trailer and as she didn't had any experience on that the trailer went the opposite side and hit my car's front bumper, afther some chat she was nice and gave me 300 bucks and compliment saying my car was pretty amazing. Now i am full of options to do on the 240's front pignose,Chuki,Custom maybe Sileighty (still keeping the OEM LOOK).

Also got my kouki tailight and panel installed on the car, as a bonus my friend gave me a sample of it's rear garage mak inspired ducktail and a nice roog wing that i am rocking to help he promote hi's aero business. Also finaly choosed all the part's to rebuild the SR wich i got a almost complete rebuild kit on ebay for 300 bucks and found on the internet a nice package with BC 625+ conrods and race bearings for 700 bucks. As the rebuid includes pistons and i got all the bearings i think on internals i will be Fine with this car now i just need a big turbo and some nice intake system.

First Drift Event

So today is my first drift event On the 240 Also the begin of the real build since i already stripped the interior but i am not going to turn the car into a stripped racecar i am removing some of the unnescessary weight but i am actualy going to cover the fabric with a sexy new Suede also welding a rollcage equal as the racecar one. also re-building the engine since the parts already arrived. For the engine i installed my bashbar that now will be alternating betwen the s13's on drift event's to avoid destroing my bumpers.

Also meet a nice kid while launching at burger king because he was just doing a complete photoshoot of the 240 on the lot and when i ended up lunching i went there and we talked about cars for about half an hour and he told me that he was looking for something to start drifitng and i offered he the foxbody so he's coming tomorrow to check the car.

So finally the S13 is getting the love he deserves by first i just removed the Sr for the rebuild an then already taered it apart and put all the things that are staying onthe chemical bath so i can install they clean and ready for high revs and boost. Also intalled the rollcage and re-branded the interior with my so wanted Suede and duuude it looks amazin but i'll let the glue lose the stink, if you noticed i removed the fornt frame because i met a guy on the drift event yesterday wich has a custom body shop and we are working on something for the 240.




Plus e36 progress

So this week i realy got f*cked up because my right arm is hurting a lot and i am too stupid to check a doctor so i am just going realy sloww on the 240 at home in the little times my arm feels good i just go hard as can building the custom stuff. If someone rememeber from the drift event i met a guy and he has realy nice shop that messes with Oem,Aftermarket and custom body stuff AND they are very cheap, So for now i am denying popups on my car, Yes i am going Sileighty Also got lot of Oem parts and Oem styled parts like widefenders and a part that i project a Type-x Styled silvia Bumper, but for now i am going OEM and wide. But now i basicaly have almost all the options of a OEM S13 in terms of body.And as i helped the guy with some parts styling he made me they for Just 1k and that's cheap, Also got a little delay on my JDM order wich means some things would be in time my arm got good. For now some pics of the fab done into it.




P.S my arm is realy bad IRL and i am maybe going to a doctor this week Reality 1001%

Thanks guys for the support on the car and on my arm hope ill be 100℅ in a few days.

Also i just bought this:




So the history of this car was that i was looking the other rps (i realy check and coment all i see) and at aesth's (St4nceDr1f7er) Rp *LINK* he bought a rb26 for it's s13 and he posted a picture of the car then just for curiosity i asked if the shell was for sale. Afther tons of chat with he and the junkyard guy he sold it for only 1.5k since he was a car guy too and he prefered to sell the car dirty cheap than having to destroy the car. Then i just called a friend that works importing all kind of stuff from japan (mainly car stuff) we found a container that's leaving japan tomorrow and as he will get it for some parts we splitted the prices and my car should arrive in less then two weeks. And some guys can say that i would never be able to register this car here but theres a legal breach that allows the importation of salvage cars and when they got street-able you can inspect they and register.

But just focus on thr main spot I BOUGHT A F*CKIN R34 GTR AND THIS IS FREAKIN SICK

Economy

Skyline R34 Gt-R -V$1500
Shipping from japan -V$2000
Aesth money(gift) -V$100

Only 1500 for GT-R? I guess it could be one of those rear-wheel R34s with GTR conversions

# Soju : Only 1500 for GT-R? I guess it could be one of those rear-wheel R34s with GTR conversions

So the car was so cheap because aparrently something fell on the hood and the guy abandoned it so the japanese gonverment arrested the car and gave the junkyard a month to part or sell the car as a salvage an at the end it should be crushed and that should happened this saturday. And as i said before the wanted to save the car but he didnt had money and the guys on japan were affraid of the law, he also lowered the price because all the engine harness were sold for the swap and someone already bought the interior. As the legitness of the car i ran the vin and it matched the car exactly even afther he removed some stuff the original color still there if you or someone wanna check the vin is BNR34-001936 wich decoded means it was originredy a QM1 white v-spec model without any opptionals and it was produced in feburay of 1999 so it was one of the firts to be ever produced it also means that one day it was re-sprayed on active red also as this car was the most produced version on the most common color without any optionals it's price drops a lot

Hope i explained the price a little any doubts be free to ask here or in pm

Little Update

So if you guy's remember that old alteeza pro chassis i had stoped laying on the outside of the shop. Yesterday my frind that has a performance shop in vegas called me asking if i dont wanted to trade for his Sc300 project. Because he was lookin pretty hard for Rhd shells and as i always beeing a fan of the Soarer we made a deal that was: My -Alteeza d1 spec shell -Scale innovative coils(were on the car) -a Crate 2UZ that was going in it anyway For His: Sc300 Oem complete Shell -2Jz Shortblock with built internals (3.4l) -Recaro seats and a Nardi wheel (the car had)+500bucks. So the deal was pretty far for both of us since he had a nice complete engine with a clean shell and i got a nice modded car missing half of the engine wich means i maybe will import a 2jz Gte for the Sc and put the 3.4 block on my 1jz head fro the s14.

Sorry guys i was very busy to play and create any kind of content.(but i am working on a update of all my rides and the economy)

So one day before the r34 was getting on the ship his company called me saying that the ship got problems and it would leave one week later.As i couldnt make anything to antecipate the shipping they gave me some five free containers since me and my friend regularly import items with they. While i was working in my shop my cousin texted me with a pic of a car a stagea hat he found on a lot that drifter's used to store or sell their cars.as i realy digged the way she looks i decided to text the owner since the car had a paper with his number.
Afther i called it we discussed a lot about the car details since i realy wanted to buy it.So the car was a pre-facelift stagea autech 260rs model wich means she's basicaly a r34 wagon with a r33 powertrain wih lots of autech upgrades. Her first use was a client trasport car for a nissan dealer on japan wich made all the maintance as it should on the right time with oem parts, then in 2006 they sold her for this guy wich by the first 3 years only maintaned her and did a very few track days but the. He started messing with her a little and each time he went harder but in 2014 the engine rodnocked and the turbos got finalyzed on a event since there he pulled the blacktop unit and bought a r34 gtr engine to replace it (the gtr expired the emissions and decided to replace the engine along the exhaust wich is very common in japan) but in 2015 he got married and in as tyear his wife got pregnat. So he decided to sell the car with all the parts in the beggining he asked 11k but then he dropped the price since those cars arent exactly much looked for buying and he wanted to sell her to someone that will properly use her anfther lots od talking he agreed on selling her for 8.000 dollars and as the ship didnt sailed i could ship her with the r34 so from now there are two weeks till thwy arrive(double of hype double of cars)

Cuore Sportivo

So long time no see guys but nome um back and i'll start posting again soon. So wich better way to start posting again then showing my sweet new ride a Alfa Romeo 155 Quadrifoglio. "But this car never came to the Usa be realist..." I Know these cars never came to america but this one was imported brand new for the italian ebassador wich he used for some years befor passing it to his son wich then decided to mess with the car by raising the boost fucking the maps and cutting the springs (dont mentioning the sound) wich then led to the engine Blowing up and the car sitting for some more years. But saturday the embassy decided to make a beneficient auction with a dinner that my girfriend invited me because she wanted some old ceramics but there i was eating some sphagetti and looking at the inventory wich in the last page i found the Alfa withoht minimum price and bet i decided to give a shot since i have great memories of watching DTM while i was a kid and this car was glorious when he popped i decided to go for a 100 inotial bet and since no one there was interested on the car i gor just to raise a little and bought it for just 400 bucks. In overral the car Is Mint no rust no crashs a great base to start a project so what i should do restore , scrap , high power turbo i4 V6 swap , Dtm loooking track car IDK but surely something good is caming from this guy.
