Ok, took an early lunch so I could post more haha
That night after the drift event I met a bunch of guys who convinced me to let them weld my diff that night. Was a good time meeting folks I’ve known and hung out with to this day.
Then I started getting random parts, got rear coils which made me rake but I rocked f for a while,
Got front coils, side skirts, accord rear lip
Got a real Kouki wing a jdm silvia grille and badges to go with the skirts and a greddy front lip to tie it all together
Then got a grip royal wheels and qr set up
So just some boring basic stuff. Then I decided after no track or drifting really, I would NEED an SR to drift and that my perfectly healthy sub 150k KA and 5 speed wouldn’t cut it. [emoji854] I had (still only barely) no idea what I was doing. But I traded a 1967 C10 that I got for a song for the full swap fresh from a type x in Japan.
At some point I decided to throw some headlight wrap on it for kicks and giggles while it was still mid swap
I also bought a Carbon fiber fixed back seat, a Cusco bolt in full cage and crow racing purple 5 pt harness. I still had the intention of drifting this thing at that point
After my attempt to install and wire the engine, I got it to start and sound like it was running on a few cylinders. So I sent it to a semi local shop who put a fuel pump and did some wiring and gave it back saying that’s all it needed.
Pic from getting it back and in battles I picked up
It would run ok, and then one day I took it out to run it after a couple weeks, and it wouldn’t start. Put gas in it, tried roll,battery all the things I knew to do. starting nothing. So I was pretty defeated and I let the car sit for a year and a half.
Gonna make another comment to add to the saga with more pics
