1. No replacement, I just went off and dig up some mud with my lip and ran it over. OEM is strong as shit and it was ok (though kinda battered).

2. Why would I get my frame checked? I just went hard into the mud and my body kit took the brunt of it. Car is fine.

nassin31spr · 02-08-2012, 05:58 AM

Sorry I read in the build thread where you said you sent your car off to get put on a frame machine. I'm sure I read it wrong. Sorry.

DJPimpFlex · 02-11-2012, 08:25 PM

Anyone good at photoshop? Spoiler me thinks. Im bouncing between a kognition Gt wing or a 326 style painted green or black. Can't decide!!

4DOOR_LIFE · 02-11-2012, 08:48 PM

I think a GT Wing would be much better suited for what you're going for.

Your car is leaning further a towards full blown track car, and a I feel that a manriki wing would clash and send off the wrong vibes. Plus it's way too aggressive to be on a competition built car.

Unless you plan to get super gangster/aggressive aero, wheels, and plan on dropping your car to the floor, then by all means go for it.lol. A certain taste and style is needed for that wing to really look cool.

towlie · 02-11-2012, 09:11 PM

Yeah GT wing would be sick

subiesean · 02-23-2012, 02:11 PM

awesome driving loved reading this to see the progress of your car can't wait to hear more

Nismo_sam · 02-24-2012, 09:02 PM

Car looks great, can't wait to see more

DJPimpFlex · 03-06-2012, 12:08 AM

So I went over to my friend Kia's shop (TD Garage - Complete Auto Service & Subaru Specialist) to pick up an epic stack of tires and I saw this sick miata out front.

Sonoma Drift starts back up wednesday so I'll definietly be making smoke and a new video. No updates on the car because its perfect and I don't have anything to do on it

I sold the S14 so I need more projects!

DJPimpFlex · 03-08-2012, 01:52 AM

Sonoma drift today. Season opener. Went really well. Car is simply to easy to drive and I want to downgrade it to make it more of a challenge. I guess I could just drive better and get close to stuff.

Don't think I'll go back next week. Close proximity to the east bay. Some guy wanted to fight me over some internet shit like 2 years ago haha.

Don't mind the ugly bumper. I gotta fix that shit.

Vid is uploading now! GoPro took a shit after 4 clips so this one is short and sweet.

DJPimpFlex · 03-08-2012, 10:11 PM

More pics from Sonoma Drift!

PoorMans180SX · 03-09-2012, 06:57 AM

Still looking good man!

NismoTuner21 · 03-09-2012, 08:13 AM

Looks sweet! Saw your car on the news... lol

Sonoma Drift on KTVU Fox News - YouTube

DJPimpFlex · 03-09-2012, 10:31 AM

I'm basically a famous criminal.

NismoTuner21 · 03-09-2012, 10:57 AM

hahahahaha

DJPimpFlex · 03-09-2012, 12:13 PM

Also I'm starting karting. 125 stock Honda shifter. Should be loads of fun!

pacotaco345 · 03-09-2012, 12:59 PM

^^ I approve of this post.

Junior x · 03-10-2012, 12:27 AM

I fucking love this thread. Pure motivation

mad-ass · 03-10-2012, 02:14 AM

Most of times I don't check your updates on this thread, because I know I will be super jelly of the superb progress you makes.

Of all the cars, I wish your car was louder.

DJPimpFlex · 03-10-2012, 02:56 AM

Lol thanks Lee! Honestly I can't make it any louder. No muffler or silencer. V8 would be pretty loud though

DJPimpFlex · 03-13-2012, 07:35 PM

Motorcycle update!

I had a little accident so I replaced my fairings.

Fitment is nice and I think it looks good. Love this bike!

dftsilvia · 03-13-2012, 07:45 PM

shifter karts are fun as hell! used to race 125. thats an older motor u have didnt kno they still ran those. oh and you and your car are awesome!! straight up grassroot status

s13turbohatch · 03-13-2012, 09:43 PM

In the news it claimed drifting began from illegal parking lot shows.... that was a good laugh, again great car!

DJPimpFlex · 03-15-2012, 08:23 PM

Went out to Sonoma Drift again last night in the rain. Car ran perfect and I was having fun all night up until someone rear ended me. My car is nearly fine, just scratches but his car was near totaled. Yay for rear bumper support. Check the video!

Big angle on the first run

dreamin240sx · 03-15-2012, 08:56 PM

have any more pics of the damage?

s13drob · 03-15-2012, 09:44 PM

I love the action vids! Great build thread. Makes me want to keep my type X. I think Ill build a drift car when i have a nice datsun DD. KEEP IT UP.

DJPimpFlex · 04-22-2012, 04:53 PM

Got my oil cooler 95% installed thanks or Jeff at Jordan Innovations. Just need the filter and I'm set! Fuck your greddy kit.

Also installed PBM steering rack bushings. Should help with my over-centering.

Om1kron · 04-22-2012, 04:56 PM

the rack bushings finally came in? Or did you get the hook up?

PoorMans180SX · 04-22-2012, 04:58 PM

Can't wait till I can afford PSM knuckles, the angle looks awesome. Rainx works on Gopro cases pretty well too!
