    See you in Hell

    Thanks, I liked how the sort of pale bronze colour of the rotas looked with the matte black. It reminds me of the John Player Special colour scheme:




    and RWB's Porsche 911 "Stella Artois" :


    Im not 100% sold on the colour of the barrels so that might change.

    Thanks dude, I love building this car and sharing it with you and everyone else because you guys are just as obsessed with this stuff as I am haha. Also, getting feedback from everybody rules. It really motivates me to work 200% harder every day to build this car to be something really special.



    P.S.

    Hahaha thanks for putting it that way! I think Im a generally pretty good person, Its just that when it comes to the COTD it brings out that side of me that just wants to plow through speed bumps, burn tires, and not give a fuck.

    wheel fitment looks perfect bro, nice work!!! (pun... lol. da dimm tish). how wide does that make those rears now? and have you got tires yet? you're such a tease, i know there's more to this update that what you've shown us...
    Aleks Efremov (aleks@deathsquad.ca) sent me a pair of Pirelli P-zero rossos in 255/40/ZR18. Im kind of tired of 35 series sidewall tires right now, I want some goddamn beef on the wheels to make use of the new engine when I get it.

    Best part of the whole update

    THE FUCKEN LITTLE CANDLE LANTERN YOU SICK CUNT

    on a side note the only suitable engine swaps i will accept are

    1. 2JZ-GTE
    2. 1UZ + sc or TT
    3. 1.5JZ-GTE
    4. 1JZ-GTE

    do you see a patern there, DO YOU?


    cause i swear to our lord and master if you put anything other than a legendary toyota motor in the now world famous "Chairiot" you may aswell put on a habit and hide in a church. Cause im gunna make it my personal mission to fly half way round the world and bitch slap you with a smoked mackerel.


    not an acctual smoked mackerel img is just for visualisation purposes


    for those with no imagination it would look something like this

    sean gets slapped by a fish - YouTube
    Being slapped by a mackerel would probably give me silky smooth skin from all the natural fish oils n shit.

    The UZ + a super charger would be SO sick. I know Raptor makes a SC kit for the 2J but my end goal is a beast twin scroll single turbo setup. Well see how many years itll take to save up for that fucker haha

    and yeah the lanterns pretty sick, how else am I going to work at night with no battery in the car and no electrical outlets?

    mother fuck a sunbeam.

    Well, I think the point is that Mike likes the direction I'm going in. Chill baby.

    Well, its a brick right now, but what its shaping up to be is going to be pretty aggressive. It just takes a long time when youre really limited by income.

    So I bought a shirt! ....and a sticker. Mo' fuka.

    Get this back on the road, so I can shame my self into finishing one of my 452352345234523452345 projects.

    Dude thank you! That money is going directly into buying the new engine that the COTD needs. I really appreciate the support!

    I know it kinda seems like I'm hopping on a bandwagon thread by now, but I saw your new sig and realized I haven't looked at this thread since you first got the flairs mounted. The new wheels look 900% better than the rotas did and match the flairs way better. You say the exhaust is what's limiting your drop in the back, have you ever thought of oval piping?



    You could gain 3/4" with that alone. It's what I have to do with my e30. The reason I mention it is the rear flairs look almost empty with the fitment of the new wheels compared to the poke you had before. The front, however, looks amazing.


    This car is one of the cars that makes me love this site. I joined here with a set idea of what I like and dislike, and I keep finding cars that make me change that outlook. Your car matches almost the entire criteria of what I don't like, yet I look at it and smile. It's exactly you.

    This thread is only half about the car though, and it's the other half that makes me laugh. I joined your facebook group, now lemme get a xl Tshirt and sticker.


    ps. more Emma Watson
    The giant exhaust, rake, and poke are going out the window. Im not going to try and plan the exhaust until I have the engine in the car and the wheels finished. To me the exhaust is going to be the last piece of the COTDs resurrection. The way Im approaching the re-building of the car is ass-backwards. I want to get the ride height figured out before I start building the exhaust. I want to prove people wrong and show them you can have a totally slammed street car that still performs decently and looks agressive.


    I guess well see whether I succeed and reach that goal, or this totally fucking blows up in my face.

    I want to say thanks for all of the kind words dude. I work my ass off at this day and night, not just working on the car but making the shirts, the stickers, designing and putting together the website, taking the photos, and writing all of this stuff. I couldnt do it without Aleks and Anthony, and everyone who checks up on the COTD. When I started building the COTD I had a pretty gnarly learning curve, and a lot of the time I had, and still have, people telling me what I'm doing is a waste of time.

    Well fuck that.

    Fuck not believing in yourself. This car has taught me that if you really devote 110% of yourself to something then youll achieve it. Three years ago I didnt know jack shit about spring preload, camber, or that fitment and stance were even things people gave a shit about.

    So heres my advice to you Byron:

    If you want to marry Emma Watson, then go for it. Well drive to England when the COTDs done and impress her face with some burnouts.

    Those autostradas were amazing, but the new wheels are just.

    game over man. Game over.



    Now, COTD news:


    DSC_3081 by padraigmk3, on Flickr

    First I want to say thanks to Aleks and Anthony and the Death Squad west coast crew blowing people's minds at "Stancewars", we raised a decent chunk of change for the engine swap! I want to say thank you to everyone who went and bought the new shirts, stickers or just took the time to say hello.








    DSC_3079 by padraigmk3, on Flickr

    So, the new engine is obviously going to cost a lot of money, so I've started unbolting what I can and taking stock of what's going to be carried over to the new setup, what's going to be up for sale, and what's going in the garbage.


    DSC_3073 by padraigmk3, on Flickr


    DSC_3075 by padraigmk3, on Flickr


    And speaking of garbage, here's something I need to get off my chest. The COTD came with a "pre-oiler" (you can see it in the picture above). long story short, it's a pump that you can turn on and run from the battery before you start your engine. It's supposed to protect your engine bearings from dry abrasion.



    Now, If you have something in your engine bay that breaks while you're on the highway, or at the track, then fuck it, sometimes you need to use whatever you can to hold it togeather.


    HOWEVER. If you're selling someone a car, fix that shit, and don't leave it held togeather with fucking yellow zip ties. Those things are so weak that a baby with rabies could bite through them.


    THIS AIN'T GONNA DO SHIT BUD:



    DSC_3072 by padraigmk3, on Flickr

    I wanted to keep my Greddy TD04H turbo but I'm going to have to sell it too. It's got a T2 flange which won't work well with the quick spool valve I want to incorporate, plus it's way too small to make the numbers I'm aiming for. Bye bye lil' guy.


    DSC_3070 by padraigmk3, on Flickr

    My AEM TRU-TIME cam gears are going to have to go too.


    DSC_3068 by padraigmk3, on Flickr

    One thing I can probably carry over to the 2J is my AEM fuel pressure regulator.


    DSC_3077 by padraigmk3, on Flickr

    My Greddy BC should swap over too I think.

    Meanwhile on the outside of the car....


    DSC_3080 by padraigmk3, on Flickr

    ugh. gross. The cops really **** that they can't tow this thing or give me a VI. The plus side of getting that inspection right before the engine died is that now the COTD is safety inspected, even though it has:

    no seats
    no steering wheel
    no shifter
    no seatbelts

    I've been going through the phone book looking for powdercoaters who can strip and paint my Work Meister's. alsoI need to find a company that will make custom barrels because finding existing ones is taking up too much of my time, and it's only going to get more difficult seeing as these wheels are discontinued now


    DSC_3084 by padraigmk3, on Flickr

    What's next? Well Death Squad raised almost $300 at Stance Wars so that puts us closer to being able to afford a used 2JZGTE to transplant into the COTD. Total funds raised to date: ~$900.






    Welp, that just about wraps up this update. It's Friday, so have a good weekend guys, and enjoy the best video I've seen this week:

    Hey guys! Just a heads up that I'm updating this thread tomorrow.


    FYI: for all of the people lurking this thread who don't have Stance|Works accounts yet:

    From tomorrow's update onwards you'll be able to read and comment on COTD updates via the DeathSquad.ca website. I always like hearing the feedback you guys give me, so if you're not on S|W, then go over there to tell me I'm ruining a perfectly good car haha.

    Seeya tomorrow.
