"OH NO NOT AGAIN!!"
 weeelllllll....
EYOO. I'm back! Before I talk about anything that happened I have to thank you all for the nice comments about the FC! <3 And to answer Biggies question - I actually don't know myself what I'm going to do with the FC. It's probably just going to stay a normal street car. Let's begin with the actual update: If you know me and followed my old threads, you might remember that I have a special connection to a specific type of chassis. One that's seen as "overused" by a lot of other people. Ehm.. yea..  Might have bought another S13 lol. Whoops. To be exact - It's a '98 Nissan 180sx Type S! This thing would've costed 759.000¥ (about 6.000V$) but I actually managed to get down the price a bit by buying it with cheaper wheels. It was supposed to be sold with some Gram Light 57C replicas but since I'm against reps and want to swap this thing to 5-lug anyways it made more sense to play around with the price a bit. They gave me some old used Teardrops from a S13 Silvia on some completely used up tires instead. The whole price was dropped down to 5.500V$.  And there it is. And just like the FC, the S13 is basically untouched. Only "interesting" mods on it are that knock-off Kakimoto exhaust tip, a HKS pod filter and some no name intercooler which does actually do it's job. Other than that - stock. Really rare sight even in Japan. Hehe.   Even the interior looks clean and well maintained. None of my previous S-Chassis have been that clean. Pretty proud of this one.  Even tho I might not have a strict plan on the FC, it's pretty clear where the S13 is going. Don't worry. This is not going to be some sIcK dRiFt mIsSlE BRUHHH. I will definitley try to keep this thing as clean as possible!   Speaking of S-Chassis and old projects... Let me introduce you to one of my very first customers. He had the chance to work with me since a few months even tho the shop isn't even open yet. And you might recognize his car from somewhere..  Doesn't ring a bell? Let me help you..  Yep. This is THE very same S14. MY very first S14. My first car that I ever owned in Japan. And it transformed MASSIVELY! He did not only change the color and livery (with my help) but he also changed one major thing in the aesthetic appartment:  HE CHANGED THE ZENKI FRONT. I'm normally against changing Zenkis to Koukis but there was a reason: In his very first track day with the S14 he actually managed to damage the front so much that he had to change most of the panels.. yeah.  This project was so much fun and we will definitley see more of this S14 and more similar stuff like this. I really hope you enjoyed this update! x |
