Vinyl Ideas

Yeah, so I am officially a vinyl whore now, and on top of that, my paint is all fucked up cuz its old, and has a lot of dings and dents. So, to continue on in the spirit that Phil started, I have been recently been going through ideas for a new vinyl scheme. Lemme know what you guys think, Im thinking of pulling off ALL the white on the car, and replacing it with SBC vinyl.


Sexy Knights style bursts over the wheels, in SBC of course.




As for the hood, and other body panels, I dont know, feed me some ideas.

The right side of the car, I plan to rock a HUGE Risky Devil Vinyl, along with the motto.


The left side of the car will be reserved for company logos, including Stance, Touge Factory, TH Motorsports, Cusco. and who knows whatever else haha.

My goal is to make the car just look rowdy. Vinyl, scraping low, busted lip, whatever. boro boro ftw

Sheek Louch...New Artist

lemme know what you think. I may have to buy/download this album real soon

Crazy break!!

This is crazy, I have been busier during my spring break than during my normal school week. This may possibly stem from me trying to fit 10 days of things into 5. It is currently 8:40 AM, and I have been getting up before 9:00AM the past 4 days lol... Ask any of my school friends, you will be lucky to see me move before 12:00 Noon on a regular school day haha. I've been actually studying too. I found myself locked away in Barnes and Nobles twice this week. Homework has been also a regular task for me over break. Anyway, while trying to finish the car, doing favors with friends, and running errands of my own, I realize that I have had little time to devote to other friends I do not see often. I wanted to hang out with everyone over break, but it looks like its not happening so far. So, if I havent called u up over break, my bad I've been super busy :(

As for the car, I have been waiting for Mazda to send me a piece of rubber and a piece of metal for the past 3 days, if it is not here today, I am gonna be really pissed. When I opened my bellhousing, I found a lot of fluid inside. So, I ordered a new input shaft seal and gasket, but I cannot do any more work until they arrive. So lets hope Mazda doesn't fail today, and I can drive my piece of shit through this lovely snow....not

Anyway, long post over, hit da cell if you wanna chill, Ill try and make time :)
Some pictures to make me, or you, feel better :-)

Really boro boro looking cars, that miata is fuggin gangsta, and the AE86 has an F20C in it,

Anywayy, this has been a long post, about NOTHING. But I did warn people that half of this blog will be complaining haha. Yeah, so I gotta do stuff now, I will hopefully update tomorrow with more car progress.
Peace.

IT BEGINS!!

Finally started gettin dirty and making my damn car move. Took some pics of some of the work
Big thanks for Fez (Luis) Jeremy and Hugh for the help so far.



-You can see the damage to my subframe in this picture, its already rusting, can't even count how many times I have banged the shit out of that on the highway or Lake Shore Drive....
-Who says I am not low enough??



-More pics of low damage haha, that is the back end of my exhaust, scraped up



-Even the oil pan gets some love, although I should't joke about this, bad things can happen if I rip off my oil pan lol


-Fez, looking stoned haha



-Me, looking intensly focused...


-The bolt was SOOOOO tight!




-Dig that purple racing seat, no, it didnt used to be black, I bought it purple!



-Where the magic happens?


So, basically we have the transmission out of the car, and we discovered that the housing was really full of trans fluid, which means I have a leak somewhere that I need to fix. Flywheel is getting resurfaced tomorrow, and new clutch is going in.
-So far, I have changed the oil, coolant, diff fluid, trans fluid, clutch fluid, and probably will also change the brake fluid for fun.
-Still have left to do:

1. Put transmission back into car
2. Flush coolant system
3. Clean up coilovers
4. Find many many tires
5. blah blah blah
6. drift

So yea, I'll post more pics when I have them, hopefully I can get this done soon, although I am in no hurry, my spring break is fawking snowed out haha. How lame.
Anyways, this is long enough for a post, peace outt

been a while....

Yeah, so its been awhile since I posted anything on this blog, but its OK!
I just recently got back to work on my car, getting it prepped for abuse this season. I have many many pics of the labor I am currently putting in, I will include them on my next post.

Some old videos

Blah, school is still dragging on, and summer is getting closer and closer! Found some old videos that I haven't seen for awhile. They were both made by my buddy Tim (T2Films) back from summer of 2007. The drifting is weak, but I was learning. Even still, it felt great just to be with people and hold down a spot into the late hours of the morning.
Check out this video: street drift chicago 2

This vid is another made by T2Films, just some Chicago highway action. The funny thing about this video is that it actually has both of my cars in it. The Civic was the car I sold to buy the Miata, which was owned by Phil at the time.

thinking of summer...

I was just checking out some old pictures from the forum my friends and I use, and it made me reminisce of the good times that summer always delivers. Check out some of these pics, this is how we always get down!

Summer 2007, Daikoku Futo Chicago, holding it down....



Summer 2006, or maybe 2005, haha I dont remember, but this was still back in highschool. The silver EK (civic Hatchback) was mine.




Ahh, those were the damn days. Care-free, no college pressures, no restraints. Just being with the homeboys thinking bout car stuff.....Feels like soo long ago haha. Hopefully this Summer brings back feelings like that.

Super low, super slow

Although I dont have a girlfriend right now, there has been one chick thats been dealing with me for a couple of months now, let me introduce you to her :P

The needy, high maintenance, never satisfied, really problematic girlfriend:
**at least she has good figure??**







She even puts up with my abusive nature :)


Eh, things are changing a little for 08', hopefully the car wont be so LAME haha.

Heres the history of me and this car, although its very short.
Bought the car in the beginning of summer2007, immediately after I sold my old Civic EK. I wanted an FR experience, but also a convertible, so a Miata was the perfect solution. I had admired my friend Phils car for a long time, and the timing was perfect when he put it up for sale. I did not hesitate to jump on the offer, and my new car chapter began.
Learning to drift this car was quite an enjoyable experience. Phil had fortunately bought all the right stuff necessary to drift this car, so all I had to do was get some good seat time in. I have never attended a drift event yet, so all of my practice was on the streets. In the summer and into the fall, I enjoyed hangin out at a bunch of different drift spots all around the area. Still have a long way to go, hopefully this season I will get much much better with both track and street experience.

Plans for 2008!

Yeah, so been really down lately, dunno why... Kinda feel like I've been wasting life doing nothing recently, maybe its just the winter cold haha. However, things are hopefully changing for the better. There is so much hype and anticipation for the 2008 driving season, I am very excited for it as well. If you know me, you know that anytime I have a problem in life, no matter what it is, fully focused, adrenaline driven driving always cures me. With the support of all my friends who are prepping their cars for the rowdiest driving season ever, I think Ill be super motivated to drive even better during 2008. I plan to attend as many drifting and track events that I can afford. Mix those with your typical summer hard-parking events, cruises, and what not. This year is gonna be awesome.
Here are some of my crew's cars.
