So, i was organizing my flickr last night..or the night before, i can't remember. Anyways, i figured id show you guys some off the wall stuff ive built in the past few years. i know at least two of them aren't even in the US, so a little spicyness to mix it up i guess.
way back in the day i built two of hte most fun cars i have ever had in my life
first one was a 97 GS-T spyder.
This was back in the show car days, before drifting, before all that bullshit. it was circa 99/2000? back when 2 megapixles was awesome!
Car was the FIRST ever eagle talon converted vert, and the very first Volk GT-U in gunmetal finish in the US.
that car started my car world off. 18 first place wins, tons of best of wins. i loved that car.
then i had this thing, which was an experiment in hondas. got the car for free, so i figured fuck it
did a bunch of stuff, all suspension, and a tune up
back in the brand new days of D2
one and only time i owned rotas...lol
First off was my 180sx:
nikko, thanks Dino
circa Jan 2007
then came the Cedric (legendary in its own right)
jun1 purchased
first
then
then this happened
ripped my entire exhaust, and rear bumper off becuase of a reflector in th road...yeah, the small ones.
So, i got yelled at for no bumper, so i had to buy aero.
broke it some more
did an s13 front suspension conversion and swapped to 19" ordens
reppin
open dump and complete rear arms
love it or **** it. the wing worked. got rid of rear end float at like 140kph
went air nov 23rd finally, 2007
UAS on CST coils (note the s13 suspension)
so, unfortunately. after a botched paintjob on this, and the next posted car by Mike from Idesigns, who i flew out here to paint my shit, they didnt last long after.
BUT this is the final version of hte car, which i miss to this day:
feb3 2008
ride height
and thats it for that one
at the same time, i was building a UCF11 for hte wife. bought it stock in dec 1st 2007
pile o wald
pink/tan garson type jewel interior
flake on both cars
no pics after that. i was so unhappy with it, i just threw it in the garbage...literally.
car lived for two months. sad
Nissan Stagea in a few differnet versions
r33GTR5 speed transplant
t04e 50 trim
final version
from feb 2007 (after the cedric was painted) until july or so 2008
then i got a legacy.
julyish 2008
twin turbo bg5. lotsa mods. stripped it out, FMIC on it, aero, paint (in my front yard with a gun, turned out better than the other ones and it was my first car), wheels, blah blah blah
turned a laptime as good as an r6 on the track i blew it up at (also only lasted a few months)
bought it
then
then
then
the
that car lasted a year. most of the time the wife driving it, until she bought a jeep (next) and i took it back over until i bought a cima
and on to the jeep, short pictures here, cause im sure you dont care
stable
day1
and then
whatever, we had that fora year to (up until a few months ago, it was replaced with an altezza, no pics yet)
so when the subaru blew up, i got a laurel, then a cima. nothing of the laurel, so here are the two
only had the cima for a few months driving it. its for sale now.
so then i got the van...the current project.
honda stepwgn
test fitting 8+30s
quickly bought bold world air suspension, and garson 19s
THEN i got spacers, and camber arms and toe arms in teh back....and it got much better
before
after
as it sits now
full build thread to come.
Just figured id intro myself to you guys, and show you some of my past eye candy. ALOT of long hours, blood, sweat and tears went into these cars. the majority built in my front yard, with a 33gl compressor and my hands. got any questions just ask!
