Hope...?

So, with so much shit going wrong all over the place, the car just sits around waiting for SOMETHING to happen.

Had to special order some Nismo bushings to finally put together my rear subframe.

Hopefully, shit starts happening soon because I'm getting tired of having a massive load of parts sitting around.

Most recent pic of the car.


Looks like the Z will be painted tomorrow...hopefully.

Building a car the right way isn't cheap. Who knew?

I've had boxes and boxes full of new parts for both of my S13's stored away in the garage. Recently, I finally got around to cleaning up the majority of it and found how much shit I really had.





Suspension pieces alone are roughly $300/each.

Fuck. Haha.

Going Kouki crazy.

So, since I'm going Kouki 180sx on both of my S13's, I need to do it right.



What better way than to get 180sx seats to match my 180sx aero.

Awesome.

Making a 12 hour round trip to Oakland this Saturday for some more awesome Kouki 180sx aero.

Getting an insanely good deal that's just too damn good to pass up.

It's 100% worth the drive.

Haha.

Crazy.

My dog. The climber.

So, while the girlfriend and I were inside playing Rock Band 2, we hear our dog crying.

My first thoughts are "damn, dog hungry or what?".

I walk to the back to see what the little guy wants.

Open the door...




This bastard climbed the fucking "fence" we set up so he wouldn't escape.

Dog is pretty fucking smart.

Haha.

Damn thing.

Lots of work. No play.

So, been really busy this past week at the shop getting a few things ready for paint.

First up, the good ol' Z.

This thing is literally in pieces. Feels like we're parting the car out to be honest.

Haha.




Here's a Suby that came in for a full paint job.

The owner tried to do it himself, but failed. So, we're re-doing the entire thing properly.

The funny thing is, we're using the exact same materials he used(not because that's what we use, but because that's what he supplied) and the blue is actually lighter than his.

Haha.

His blue came out very...very dark.

Here's a few progress pics.

More progress pics tomorrow.

:)
