I've been tinkering around with little stuff. I did the z32 front brake conversion, LED bulbs for the entire interior including the digital climate control, and Tinted the windows. I found a crack on my Tomei manifold. Had that fixed, then it cracked in the same spot about a week later, fml. So I'm trying to decide if I should buy another Tomei manifold or just go back to a stock manifold. Super wow factory made me a huge gold chrome spirit rei sticker for the back window and some other small gold chrome stickers, why am I overly excited for those lol. I'll put them on and snap some pics this weekend. Here are some pics my wife took recently:

Usually once it's cracked, fixing it doesn't last long. Go stock for now if you have no other option. Knock on wood my tomei manifold doesn't crack too.

I second that the stock manifold for the time being. If you ever decide to go back to the tubular style again, try reinforcing it prior to installing may not be a bad idea.

Maybe look at another company that uses thicker tubular materials? I'm sure you can find something in the US or AUS...

I haven't had a Tomei crack on me, but if it did... I'd check for something else.

Sold the Vertex steering wheel. It was my second Vertex wheel and I just got sick of how careful you had to be not getting the threads dirty. I daily this car so it wasn't practical, I picked up a Nardi wheel. In the next couple weeks I'm planning on redoing my interior. pulling the dash, fixing cracks, re cover the dash with an oem look vinyl. I'm also wanting to re upholster the door panels and glove box but I can't decide on a color. I'll probably just do black. I can't seem to find anything that doesn't look tacky. Also if anyone can lead me towards finding a single gauge RHD pillar pod that would be great.

Na dont be. One, oddly enough my passenger seat, is getting worn out pretty bad. I'll have to have it fixed or replace it soon

A photographer from kansas city came down and shot my car for the march 2018 issue of SUPER STREET. It was an honor to be in the magazine. Talk about a 90's kid dream come true.

I purchased some URAS corners! super stoked on them. Light tinted them along with the headlights, and bumper turn signals.

My buddies from Dream Speed Garage shot my car. I'm in love with these pics! sometime this spring when my brother (zilvia member - statticmyke) finishes his next look on his car, they are coming back to do a video/photo shoot of our cars together.







Current plans are finding a pair of wheels to build for drift spares. I haven't been to an event in about 3 years and I'm finally getting the itch again. Club Loose is now doing events in San Antonio TX, which is about 8 hours away. Along with spares I need to purchase a new clutch. This old ACT 6 puck can no longer hold the power

New clutch is on its way, i'll have it in the car this weekend. I found a pair of Minerva's local i gotta go pick up and I ordered new wider rear lips for my current rears. get off spacers finally! I'll use the 6 inch lips for the drift spares I'm picking up.

In the meantime here are some cool rollers a local kid shot for me

I Currently have the ACT 6 puck clutch kit. I've had it for 7 years which I feel like is a good time for aftermarket. So I just ordered the same thing again.
