Change of plans.

The seller of the discontinued vs-mx wheels isnt responding to my pm's/emails. too bad. i had cash ready and was psyched about those wheels. dude missed out on a quick sale. fuck'em.



Anyways. i have my eyes set on some wheels i've always wanted. Hopefully this guy can stay in contact. Get ready for epic updates soon.

Nasty cell camera

took these two yesterday with my cellphone. horrible.

sold the battles to eric on friday. and hopefully i get that new set i was talking about. still trying to get the other set of wheels to sell. alot of calls/emails from tirekickers.

Heres a little tease of whats to come.

hopefully the dude doesnt sell it on me.

2 sets of wheels for 1!?

Saying bye bye to my battles and another set of wheels i picked up. Eric currently has first dibs on the battles. should be picking it up friday. hope he puts the treads on the tires to good use. dfaction?
possibly have another buyer for the other set he should be calling me around 3pm.

once thats all settled for i have a chance to buy something special to replace the battles. we'll see how it goes.

finally got my package from CIP. gasket quality loooks godamn amazing. throwing that bish on tommorow once i get my manifold back from the machine'rs stupid broken bolt + broken extraction stud that is hard as a fucking adamantium cock to drill through. all should be dandy after tommorow's over. its just going to take alot more bruises/cuts/bloody knuckles. well worth the smile on my face after its done.

stupid monday.

took off my turbo setup to replace exhaust manifold studs. tried drilling out the broken stud. no luck. as hard as a diamond. at least i got the other studs in. as i was taking off my wastegate from my manifold one of the bolts snapped in half. GREAT. i tried drilling that out. no go. tired of fucking bolts shitting on me. getting it out at my welder tommorow. also getting my copper exhaust manifold gasket i ordered from cip tommorow.

stainless steel doesnt look soo stainless after extreme heat.

super blown gasket. copper wont blow as easy + now i actually have more studs in there holding it down.

haha the bay looks soo empty without the turbocharger.

Slacking

Completely behind in plans. according to what i was supposed to do, i've should've already been dyno'd. no big deal i guess. maybe if anyone wants to hit the dyno up at the same time we can roll together.

getting new exhaust manifold studs in soon + new gasket, maybe copper to kill the leak. exctracting the few broken studs on the blockside will be a doozy.

Having a titanium turbo heat shield fabbed up by marceaux and sons. it looked straight baller on tonys s2000. functional too!

Boat floater

yes, i want that exact copy she's holding. microsoft surely does know how to advertise.

Beast of chinatown

Saw this GTR parked in chinatown. Not the first time i've seen it here. Looks super sickkkkk in person. Place is dirty as fck as usual. still saw some cuties though.

also saw a cool little classic porsche heading back home.

also found a pic of my first s14

kyb agx+tanabe gf210 springs + lancer evolution 8 enkei wheels. ahh soo old.

Hackjob Welds piss me off.

So glad i redid everything the correct way.

in the past month i've put in :

nismo 550cc's
enthalpy tuned ecu w/ s14 harness
unblown ct26
new custom manifold w/ tig welded +angled ct26 flange
walbro 255 (i've found a walbro in the fuel tank, but the newer the better)
Motoria Sr 3" catback

Still need to get a downpipe fabbed up with o2 bungs. Also need to finally install that innovative lc1 wideband that i bought form eric in 09. wiring looks crazy as fuck though. but it should be simple once im at it. After thats all set, im hitting the dyno.

Rolling in w/ massholes ftw

a pic from the meet we had today. food was bleh. somehow we had more cash than nessicary when paying the bill........ wtf?!

180sx's in thailand?

Say hello to my little...

Only clean thing sitting inside my engine bay. too bad the heatshield covers the view. definately cleaning my bay soon. soo much grime and oilstains.

In other news. just got a hookup for some 275/40/17's drag radials for my rears for almost DIRT. its going to be sick. grip > super flush. Dont worry it'll still look awesome. ill still also keep a few spare sets of 225's for when i feel like going sideways.
