Here we go brah

Car activity being put on hold, but still participating in the next events.

i can never get a break

2011-07-30T16:11:00.002-04:00

This is my town

2011-07-10T03:43:00.000-04:00

lolol, cant believe my town sold their police tapes to tru tv, in the first scene was the same car wash i took my recent car pics in. fuaaarrkkk didnt realize it was a gangwar battlefield.

stroud, ok drift

2011-07-02T21:47:00.000-04:00

Headed out of town at around 7 and got there around 10, no ac and i could feel my tranny radiating heat. We pulled up to a gas station and guess what? My starter doesnt work. The bro's pushed started the ride and all was dandy. As the day progressed it reached around 103 degrees and we were in direct sunlight. I was walking around with my shirt half off with my skinny frame not giving a fuck.

The heat finally was too unbearable and we left around 2:30ish, and for some reason my bitch ass starter wants to work again.

Driving 3 hours back home with no ac in 103 degree weather is no fun at all. still have a throbbing headache
Must've wasted about 15 dollars in tolls. srs.

would not do again until i acquire a blower motor and recharge my freyon

TL;DR ?

cliffs
- almost died of heat stroke

anyways here are the pics, didnt really take any action shots as i was too far from it and my camera zoom sucks money cock.

its going down

2011-06-29T12:35:00.002-04:00

lets see if i can handle 97 degree heat with no ac for a 2 and a half hour drive there.

update?

2011-06-28T02:12:00.000-04:00

nahhhhh not really, just the first time i washed the s14 in a few months. looking like a new car again. digging that orangish paint in the light! I also suck at holding the camera still enough to get un-blurry pics with the flash off.

Most oemish looking ka-t ever

2011-06-05T17:50:00.000-04:00

My obsession with wheels that i cant afford and cant fit is still growing. What to do?

2011-05-15T18:47:00.000-04:00

2011-05-15T00:32:00.000-04:00

only my car looks the same, aside from the kouki spoiler and front bumper damages.

too bad we cant take a pic with everyone's ride completed, it would be the dopest shit.

Car is finally back to DTF mode

2011-04-28T17:30:00.000-04:00

All up to date on matinence and the other bullshit.

Leaned out my setup on the AFC for a test run and felt huge noticeable amount of power gained. The difference felt like i was driving another car completely

I reset the change though, waiting for an Aem uego or another dyno day before i blow a KA

fun time

2011-04-25T00:27:00.002-04:00

hope i can get my shit together in time so i can get down

following boodah

2011-04-24T13:23:00.001-04:00

hope you can get her back on the road soon bro. Definitely a baller school boy build.

For the broski's back on the east coast

2011-04-18T22:50:00.001-04:00

getting up to date with maintainance

2011-04-16T17:55:00.000-04:00

Figured today would be the best day to getting my car up to date on everything. only thing i probably need to do now is change the rear pads and rotors. And order up a blower resistor. Pretty sure when it has rust on it, its bad.

2011-04-13T18:55:00.000-04:00

discount tire direct FTW free shipping on tires

rich = blast of black smoke that can cause cancer

2011-04-11T19:25:00.000-04:00

AF/R's were super rich, doing 9.7 - 9.9 from 2500 to red line. disappointed in the numbers but its great knowing i can pull an extra 20-60 rwhp from a reflash, just need to lean it out ALOT. Hopefully scott from enthalpy can get it close to 11.4:1 ish

after another reflash + gapping the plugs a tiny bit more, ill have a smoother curve and a wompload more power. now that im off in the right direction, i need to buy some tires.

2011-04-09T21:56:00.000-04:00

Rescheduled my dyno for monday since i passed out last night and woke up late thanks to strobe lights + alchohol.

to do list this season:

- need new tires snagging some 225/45/17 when i can. why the hell dont they make 225/40/17? idk but my tires are getting bald.
- ordering a set of pbm toe arms when possible, ruca's will come later, camber isnt bad.
- possibly getting another re-flash reflecting the dyno
- get another set of pbm adjustable spacers.
- order some xxr-521's in 18x10+25 as spare drift/winter wheels since i dont have my stockies anymore
- finally start ordering interior parts. the plan is to get a new steering wheel setup, taiwan brides w/ stock belts.

then i guess when thats all done with, stockpile up on tires 17's and 18's

Cause we dont fuck around when it gets warm

2011-04-06T23:23:00.000-04:00

Talked to the boys at D&P for a bit after work. 50 bucks for 3 power pulls w/ AFR and power graphing

Thats half the price of what DSG charges. $25 cheaper than ESP. Must be what happens when theres no local competing dyno shop.

Forgot to ask what type of dyno machine they used. im assuming its a dynojet though.

Shop has all positive reviews from the local forums, lets see how it goes. planing to do some runs on Saturday if im not hung over. Should be a solid 90 degrees Fahrenheit.

2011-04-04T23:51:00.003-04:00

refreshing to see something different at good looking at the same time.

Diamonds on my platezz

2011-03-05T15:51:00.001-05:00

Officially Switched registration and insurance on the "cah". Getting my AR license soon too or else they'll fine my ass.

Also started tackling my low idle issue, Re grounded the maf, switched out spark plugs and wires, upgraded the fuel filter to a z32 one. Was going to spray some throttle cleaner into the iacv hose, but as i did i saw it leak out. BIG ass rip. Waiting on my moms to come back so i can buy a new hose. Hopefully this fixes the low idle, cause i know it definately will fix some boost leakage.

moar boost

2011-02-19T20:13:00.000-05:00

Couldn't be happier with the quality of this boost controller; even though its the lowest model hallman makes. Cant wait till its all in and settled. Let the conquering begin

i dont even trust myself going that close to a parked car, let alone another car going sideways while im sideways.

need some more practice.

same old

2010-12-15T23:23:00.000-05:00

No real updates lately. barely get the time or the manliness to spend time with the car because of the freezing temps and overtime hours.

Went for a drive today and the godamn door handles and key holes were frozen shut. i hate winter. Also got a chance to throw in my greddy type rs. I was running a garbage type S knock off.

Cant wait to hit the skid pads in oklahoma.

3 wheeels? no problem

Work Wash

2010-11-02T19:31:00.001-04:00

The Meguiars Gold class all wheel cleaner came in today and i gotta say, im impressed. i'd recommend it to anyone. just spray, wait for thirty seconds, power wash and then finally microfiber wipe.

OB's Zenki

2010-10-26T19:28:00.001-04:00

Definately one of my favorite zenkis. i love this car.

excite

2010-10-22T21:01:00.000-04:00

wheels + pbm spacers go on tommorow as well as the rear bumper for good. we'll see how much work it takes to get the jdm signals in. Picked up Eric's sawzall to hack at my rear crash bar. thanks man, i really appreciate it.

we'll see how it goes after i recover from my incoming hangover. probably will hit up toan after im done to see if he needs any elbowblk assistance.

transform

2010-10-20T22:25:00.000-04:00

still gotta cut the crash bar a little above the exhaust so i can put this thing on for good.

piece by piece

2010-10-19T23:20:00.000-04:00

spot on!

2010-10-18T20:10:00.001-04:00

the saying goes, " you get what you pay for ".

well damn does this fit good! only have to sand maybe a few mm's on the edge of the skirts on each side and it fits like a godamn glove. i'd say it fits a bit better than my origin stream skirts.

mounted it without tape or bolts. it just holds itself on hahah. prep and drilling holes tonight and them badboys will be fully on the car tommorow night.

front bumper comes in tommorow, so psyched. fuck yes.

spacers in by friday, cars coming along together nicely

also finally unwrapped my rear bumper, didnt realize the curves were soo much win

2010-10-18T01:25:00.000-04:00

New Plan

2010-07-16T21:13:00.002-04:00

After paint my next goal is................New turbo. firm belief that my turbo seals are done.

picking up an upgraded ct26 + enthalpy ecu reflash whoop whoop. all in due time though.

most likely a 57 trim upgrade. probably the last mod ill do before im out of new england. going to need the ecu tuned for shitty fort smith 91 octane.

You know how i like it

2010-07-15T14:56:00.000-04:00

extra spicy!

MOAR!

2010-07-13T01:18:00.000-04:00

Definitely need more cruises going on.

Car should be getting coated with matador mica red right now. but im still waiting on a new zenki bumper. My plans are so SCREWED.

Sanded down the car a bit and now its pinkish. so if you see a dull pink s14 with a black front end driving around........

drugs + rainbow LOL!!!

Touchdown

2010-06-30T04:20:00.000-04:00

hit boston pavement four hours ago at. Arkansas was fun, definately will be going back. cool people, fun times.

first thing i did when i got back home was throw the ecu back in the car and reconnected the battery. went out for a late night cruise.

sure feels great driving the car again after soo long. i feel totally refreshed.

prep

2010-06-07T14:36:00.001-04:00

prepping my car while i get ready. departing logan airport tommorow @ 6am.
bye bye new england. ill be back.

i didnt shower yet...... but i washed these.

providence water fires

2010-06-05T11:11:00.001-04:00

only if i had an SLR

any tips on how to capture fire? slow shutter speed seems to make it blur.

the s14 is now DTF

2010-06-04T20:37:00.000-04:00

finally got a downpipe welded up and put on today. put in all my o2's. car is a different beast overall. the exhaust is super silent. and now i cant hear the turbo spool up crazy. so FUCK YOU WOONSOCKET NOISE ORDINANCE you can go suck my dick.

but all in all. i feel the difference in low end torque. I HAVE PLENTY hahahhaha. definately ready to prowl on the unsuspecting ricers on the road.

in other thoughts. i leave to go to arkansas on tuesday. party harty till then. ill be out of the car game until im back next month. but when im back expect hot fi-ya. version select 1+paint is on its way.

and if anyone can find some deals on 255/40/17's give me a shout. i mean dirt deals. DIRT.
