Hello my name is Jorge aka Ward
I'm 18 years old and I'm from Portugal but recently I moved to Japan, Osaka due to student exchange program that is called in portugal "Erasmus". This year was my first university year but while I was in school I had a night job at a local 7/11 so I could get some extra money to buy my first car. I purchased my 1st car, it's a 1993 Nissan 180SX for 5200V$, why has it so expenisve for a normal 180SX? This car has been swaped for an SR20DE insted of a CA18. Why? Beacause the old owner had a Nissan 180SX Kouki and it was envoloved in a huge crash so he bought a bone stock 180SX and swaped the the SR20DE. Unfortunaly he stopped working on the car beacause he had a big bank debt. The car is mint, the interior doesn't smell bad, nothing is dirty, the ash tray was clean af. The paint, one the other side, looks pretty but it's starting to fade nothing some spray cans couldn't fix. The whole car is a gem so that means I'm gonna fuck whith with by modifying it. My plans for it is replacing the wheels, turbo the SR20DE and some rice body kit. (So why did I created a new roleplay thread again? Well from all the roleplay that i had they ended up in the same way A MESS so on this one i wanna keep it organized with quality texts and prints and not something that I make in 10 min) Finances: V$ 20000-5200=14800 This post was edited by Ward (2016-10-02 19:33, ago) |

Hey dude, do you remember me? We were from the same school when you were on the 8th grade.
Awesome 180sx! Maybe when I go to Japan (spoiler alert) we'll do some tandems Added 1 second later: Hey dude, do you remember me? We were from the same school when you were on the 8th grade. Awesome 180sx! Maybe when I go to Japan (spoiler alert) we'll do some tandems |

Fucking my 180
Well, I have been working in some shits like tto my university, my part time job and learning how to drift with my mates, but with that out of the way I got some time to work on my 180.
Anyways, I got a call from a friend of mine that owns a 180SX Kouki and he told me that he is selling his old 326Power coils for 1250V$ of course I didn't think twice and I went to Hirano to pick it up the coils and in my way home I decide to take a small shortcut to up garage so I can see some more parts. Well, I have found a set of 15' SSR Reverse Mesh and a set of 4 piston Brembo brakes all for 1127V$ and on my way home, I have stopped in a friend's tyre shop so I can get some rubber for my set of wheels he found me 4 used Toyo tires with a lil bit of stretch and since they were used I got them for 40$ he was asking 1000¥ each for them. After I had them installed I went to the city so I can take some pics and in my opinion the car looks SICK!. Finances: V$ 14800-1127-1250-40=12373 This post was edited by Ward (2016-09-04 13:07, ago) |

This is why i can't have nice thingsSo this Wednesday I was giving a clean in my 180 and I got a call from Ismael saying that he was around Osaka for a meet up and if I wanna join him. So I went to a mountain near to Osaka about 10 min from where I live there were some bad ass cars and the road had nobody. So yeah we all went for a street sesh the cops leave us alone so we spent the night switching cars making tandems but i had a problem you see my 180 has got an SR20DE and it only has 120kW so i had to push my 180 hard to keep up Well I have pushed it too hard and the end result i spined out crashed the rear in the saftey bars my bumper and support were broken in half the hit was so big that my right tail light support also has been broken just like my exhaust it just snaped in half. But still we made more drift so much I went home with bald tyres The night was great and I have been practcing drift alone almost since I have my 180 and I tell you it's way better to do it with your mates. Now I have to stop my 180 for a while so I can fix everything and drift it again and brake it again for now I am looking for a cheap daily like a crx those cars are realy dope and I allways wanted one |

Is it just me or are guys with S13s crashing all the time? Well, this wasn't such a big hit, the chassis still looks alright.

Money pitAfter what happend with my 180 in the mountain I went to Super Autobacs to see some parts to fix my car.So after a quick cruise on the shop i have only found some chuki sideskirts for 75$V the other parts I was looking for the prices were ridiculous. When I was leaving I see my nigger Ismael the last time I've seen him it was on the mountanis before I crashed my car we had a couple of beers and some fiji's and we were talikng about our money pits aka 180's I have asked him if he still had some parts from his 180. So since he had the parts laying arround we made a deal I have bought him a rear bumper with the kouki valance,a right tailight and his pignose lip all for 350 V$. Well I finally had some time to see if my 180 had any more problems well I found out that I've craked 1 rim so I asked my freind Katashi if he could get my rim fixed and get some new rubber for my wheels ao I had to slap the teardrops so i can move the car on the garage. Also I have fited my new aero and boii the car is looking ugly but I bet that with a new paint and my rims back the car will look better. So right now I have to find a cheap daily while my car is on the workshop (btw I've forgotten to put my expenses but I am going to edit the posts) Finances: V$ 12373-350-75=11958 This post was edited by Ward (2016-09-04 13:09, ago) |

ROLLINFENDERSSo there is been a while since I didn't post nothing here but there is a reason. So as you might know I am in Japan because I am studying here, but I decided to quit the university and my 7/11 part time job so I can get a proper job and I did, I found a job here in Osaka for a 2nd hand parts shop, but how does it work? Well, in Japan used cars are sold for cheap, but cars that are used and have some problems are hard to sell so this company that I am working rn it's like they buy cars that have a lot of KM'S or that have some problems they take it a part sell the good parts and the shit parts goes to a recycle center rn I am working on the workshop, but let's move to the real update Well, since I have crashed my 180 and start modifying it, I am doing things real slow but yesterday I decided to start working on my 180 so first a friend of mine traded my Pignose bumper + the lip for a chuki bumper with this lip In my opinion it suits better for the style that I am going. Also, I wanted a wing in my 180 but the ones that I want are really expensive or they are rare as fuck but after some search I got a "budonki" wing replica for 280V$ the "budonki" wing is like my wet dream and founding one for cheap was epic in my opinion suits the car really well Another thing that I got was rolled fenders I think of putting overfenders for that "James bond" effect (this will never get old) but after searching for some overfenders I didn't found nothing that I liked so I thought, well I might go for Koguchi Power fenders until I have seen the price holy tchit 1500V$ for the front and rear fenders so after a lot of search I have found a company that rolls the stock fenders so I went there and It was like 200V$ for the 4. Well the car is starting to get some shape it only needs the SSR Mesh back in the car and some paint that the car should be gucci also, I went to Miyagi Prefecture to get my new daily my gf's Prius isn't gonna do it for me Finances: V$ 11958-280-200=11478 |

# HomerHarbi : What color are you thinking to put on that 180sx? OEM Red maby bro # KeeJay : That mint green looks interesting Tbh I don't like it a lot # JdmSly : I love the stock aero, looks awesome! What wheel specs are you gonna run? Tnx bro!Right now I am running on 16X10 SSR MESH # Jdm_Racer : That green is fittng very nice you may consider keep it. Tbh I prefer red but yeah the green is nice But now let's move to the update... New Daily!So waddup boiis in the other day I was talking with my boss about that I was needing a new daily and he told me that one of is buddy's was selling his project car for cheap so I had to head to Miyagi prefecture to see the car.So this is my new daily driver, it's a 1997 Nissan Cedric Y33 that came with an RB25DE swapped from Nissan Stagea Costed me 950$ and all of this because it has a shit load of problems with it and it has 750.000KM. So this was a project drift car, but the old owner had to sell it because he ran out of money to finish it. The car it has some goodies and some troubles like: - A broken diff - The brakes are really shit (even a bike brakes better lmao) - It has a leaky exhaust But all of this is easy works I can ask my boss if I can get some parts of the shop This car is really cool and it's an epic, daily only needs a Lil bit of TLC and since my 180 is going to the paint shop on Monday I definitely need a car while I work on my 180.

@Jdm_Racer - Nah dude my daily has to be quiet and sound good lmao bout the brakes I got ones from my boss shop but tnx
New color on my 180!So it has been a while since I didn't post any shit update, but I have been working on my 180 I was prepping it so I can paint it.I have stripped the interior and took out the SR20 put in a trailer to Saitama where me and my bruh Ismael we were going to paint it on his boss shop. So what color I have chosen to paint my 180? Well, I am going for a 90's style so I have chosen an OEM Ultra Red instead of going for a brown two tone thingy I prefer the red makes it stand out and suits it really good I have paid 350V$ for the paint + varnish + primer all from Profix,Ismael's boss was a legend by borrow us the shop. Now I have to put back the SR20 and all the cosmetic parts and I am going to do it here in Saitama with a the help of my nigger Ismael Finances: V$ 10528-350=10178 |

SR20 DE DETOh shit waddup It has been more than 1 month that I didn't post noting.
Well, let's start by my daily my Nissan Cedric I still have and still has a shit ton of problems, but I have found a deal for that. Also, as you might know my 180 is a stock n/a SR20 opens diff, but it was time to get my hands dirty and make something. I have found a cheap Garret T28 from an S14 fully rebuilt for just 180V$ also the open diff wasn't doing for me so I got a nismo L.S.D for 450V$ on an auction website to finish the setup I also got a nismo intercooler for 250V$ + Piping. And then I have asked my buddy Octavio to tune my Ricoh Racing ECU that I got 2nd hand off an auction website for 130V$ Right now I just need to take the 180 back to the mountains where I broke it so I can break it again and then rebuild and then all over again Finances: V$ 10738+560(paycheck)-10100 =10288 This post was edited by Ward (2016-12-04 18:38, ago) |
