How I bought it. Running SCCA on stock everything.

My Orca whale look around christmas,

Murdering that shit out during my stupid canyon days

Aero and paint

After just over a year of drifting. (real men tap the clipping points

As it sits now.
Just over 2 years.
Car is my Daily and my Track car. From CA to WA to AZ.
Rebuilt KA,
used $300 springs and shocks,
$80 JY rims,
brembo rotors and hawk pads up front,
wleded diff,
ebay steering wheel and hub for $40,
Aero and ever fenders free through sponsor.

Waiting on vinyl, coils and rims.
