Team Roleplay Hey guys! As you know, Mikingo and i met with Phonexius and 3StyleLTU in Japan. We had a good time there but after a week we decided to try something different, so now we are in the USA to experience its diverse car community. We found this nice garage in Ardmore, Oklahoma. We also like the location itself because it's close to Texas, lots of good cars are there so it's perfect for us. 😃 We brought some of our cars with us too, they will arrive at the end of the week. I think this

# Lagano :
Last week we began swapping parts from the S14 Silvia to the 240SX and vice versa. First we took out the interior because Skip wanted to keep his S14 RHD, that means the 240 chassis needed some modifications before fitting on the RHD dashboard and steering rack. Now we could swap the LHD dash in the Silvia but we decided to keep it RHD as well cause it's a JDM car, after all. So we put the 240SX dash on sale and quickly got a deal, the buyer will install it in a S13. Before that we bought another JDM dashboard for the Silvia.

After the interior work was done we swapped the running gear and body parts. The Silvia still has the Navan bodykit cause Skip had another kit in mind for his S14. SR20 is also staying in it for now, so the Silvia is almost done! I only have to fit the headlights cause i cleaned them today, they were pretty faded.

Now on to Skip's 240: The most noticeable thing is the 326Power bodykit which we got from the UK a few days ago. Other than this it looks just like the Silvia when it arrived. We'll see about the engine though, maybe we'll swap in the SR20 but we also have some other ideas. 😉

That's it for now, both S14s will probably get resprayed in the future, well both of them are black but there is a slight difference.

Spoiler:
Sold 240SX dash: +V$250
Silvia dash: V$290
326Power bodykit: V$995
Remaining: V$6018

Just gonna quote the last post.

Nice conversion! I didn't know that it is illegal to register a car although it technically is a same vehicle.

Actualy those cars can be registered in two ways

-Imported New wich is very rare
-25 year old imported
-Also has some diplomatic one's wich are extremely rare

That would've been possible but more expensive then to do what we are doing now. We are just transferring the parts from the JDM car onto a USDM 240SX chassis and vice versa, then we are going to resell the JDM Silvia with the 240SX parts.
Hopefully this makes sense.

We tried to do that but the law was so strict that even the name stopped us registering it sadly.

"I don't need brakes, they just slow me down"

It's meeeeeeee
Back at it again with the 370z

Anyway

Today I had some free time so I decided to fit the Brembo brake kit I got with the car from Boostio.
The old brakes were junk, this was needed so badly and o h m y g o d does it feel better.

I started by removing the wheels blahblahblah you know how to do this.

Took it out for a rip once I was done, it feels way better than anything I've ever drove.

That's it for today probably, unless I crash or something idk

So as you've heard from Phonexius, me and Skip are in LA at the moment to help him with the shop and his newly-bought E31. It was a pretty long trip and we were working on Skip's S14 before that so i didn't really have time to post anything.

Anyway, here's what has changed.
3Style decided to do some changes to his 180 after a while, he changed the bodykit to Type X and it looks good just like on his previous S13.

He also traded the front rims for AVS 5's and changed the taillights. He's really a kouki fan! 😃

Moving on to my MX5: After some browsing on good ol' Craigslist i found a stock hood for only V$40. I also bought a set of headlights, they work perfectly. The only problem was that the hood couldn't close because of the engine cover so i had to take it off.

The Miata was then ready to go, so i visited the DMV to register it! I ordered a special 46 star plate for it, it cost a little more but it really fits with the color.

I registered the Chevelle too, it was built as a track car but there aren't many tracks around here so i decided to drive it on the road. Now it has the new rims that i already showed you, i wanted to upgrade the suspension as well so i bought coilovers for the front. However i didn't find any rear coilovers so i just bought a set of aftermarket shocks and springs instead.

We headed to LA on monday, Skip borrowed my 350Z and i took the Chevelle cause i really wanted to drive it.

We're currently busy with the engine of Phonexius's E31, also Skip found a new project car which he will tell you about soon!!
