Whats up my dudes?! im a new guy in town. Just moved to Phoenix from Chicago. i am very excited to start my whole new life here and stick with my passion of building cars. Im 22 years old and come from a rough and very broken family. I have been self sufficeint since i was about 14 years old when i started working little league baseball umpiring. Once i turned 16 i started working for Discount tire, probably one of the best companys on this side of the planet! it was then that i aquired my bone stock 1995 Nissan 240sx base model 5 speed from a wonderful family friend that knew what it meant to work hard and earn what you own. He was my brothers best friend and basically a big brother to me. now ill skip a bunch of inbetween pictures over the past 6 years to save some time. i basically built the car piece by piece then in December 2012 i decided enough was enough and tore it down to the bare shell to start over.
Mistakes were made, it was so clean
My first car was a 1994 Mazda MX-6. I did a KLZE swap in it when I was 15 by myself. Had lowering springs and Borbet wheels. It was a fun light weight car.
Tried a little bit of autocross
First purchase, Stance GR+ coilovers. I personally **** them. They have rusted and seized on my MULTIPLE times. Had to be rebuild already. Ride stupid stiff. Will be selling these for Dmax/Fortune autos as those ride soooo much better
Bought this off Ebay, super stock sr. man this thing was BEAST! Such a strong stock motor. I had it for a few years and put it through hell and it never let me down. Should I stuck with it…
Did the cx intercooler, HKS SSQV, isis manifold, blitz intake
Sweet Rotas BRO! Greddy lip and kouki skirts! 300zx brakes
Had the fantastic idea that a truck turbo would be cool on a sr…. never again
Had big tires at one point when I was going to do some grip racing
Sparco seat and such
Put down 300rwhp, I guess not bad? No it was bad, real bad.
Sold the MX6 and bought a E30 for a daily
Then my S14 was Tboned by a 90 year old partially blind lady… and this is when everything went downhill
Then picked up a 05 R6 Raven, man I miss this thing. It was so much fun
Did some things to make this car a little cooler
NOW here is where the fun begins. I picked up a Built SR, basically everything you could possibly do to the motor. 9:1 compression cp pistons, manley rods, bc264’s, valves springs retainers, hks cam gears, greedy oil pan
Started working at a performance shop and the build really took off! I had access to my own lift and cheaper parts
TurboFab manifold, PTE5558, Tial 38mm
Sold the E30 and moved to a Supercharged E36
Autocrossed it
Dumped it
Then picked up a fully built 6 bolt
1999 Eclipse GSX that needed a little work. Pulled the motor, installed OEM and top of the line parts, work emotion crkai
16g/20g pumping around 380awhp and NA like spool. This car was so solid and so fun to drive! It never let me down. I loved it.
We did A LOT of subarus and dsm’s, since these cars always break. A ton of evo’s and 240s
Actually used the AWD and took it off road
Still was acquiring parts for the 240
Started fitting stuff and cutting while it was still at my house
E36 Downtown Chicago
Then sold it. Put funds toward 240
Brought the car to the shop and started work. Dropped the sub frames.
Stripped
Cleaned up
Front one
Filling holes, tubs, welds
GSX ready for winter AWD FUN!
Got a little happy with a plasma cutter and everything was… gone
More cutting
Strengthening the parts I wasn’t planning on buying
Semidone
Bought legit good parts
Then had the bright idea to drive to st. louis and get this stupid thing
It was lust, not love.
That doesn’t look normal
Fuel cell
Undercoating
PRETTY
Shop EVO
Like a brand new car
Progress
Started looking like a car
Best friend Hobbs picked up the cleanest S13 ever
Cool wheels
On the ground
Perfection lies in the beautiful body lines of the FD. Probably my favorite car of all time
Then drift stuffs
Got it Tuned. 470rwhp/430ftlbs @ 19psi 93 octane
Sunday Funday!
Cops loved it
Sold the GSX for a real daily driver 2005 acura TL 6 speed
Skid racin’
Got it painted
Loaded up for Phoenix
I don’t fit in around here…
Got wheels/coils for daily
Picked these up
And my puppy!
sold my turbo kit and changing things around. Retune and cage coming next! Then time to drive the crazy amount of events the west coast has to offer.
the struggle is real
trying my best to fit in...
trading the equips so shes sitting on the spares for now
