It's because you have to wait 20 seconds, I did that so performance didn't instantly die. The cars load in with gaps between when (like 5 seconds between each).

Oh look ! A new page ! Yay ! Also , thank you for tellin' me that. It will really help me in the future.
Sorry for not posting so much today , but here's what I did. I bought a drift missile for 1500V$. It was quite cheap because the guy wanted to get rid of it. It's an S13 coupe with a cage , recaro bucket seats , vertex steering wheel , a non-modified SR20DE , and Scale innovative coilovers.
I want to make this car pretty nice and restore everything and then sell it because I really don't need another car right now. I will buy a drift missile in the future and drift the heck out of it until it falls apart.
Anyway , here's the car :
I also took it to the local track , here's the pics :
So , this is the end of another weekend , I will be back next friday with a huge update as usual , stay stoked !
I didn't, BB did, after Kokainum put something in the chatbox. So the name change isn't on purpose.
Also the car look good (and by which mod, I mean, I sort of want to see if I can combine it with Thyago's release of the S13, to create a coupe chassis accepting the same parts)

That would be awesome ! Please do it ! It would end up being the best S13 coupe mod ever ! Also , did Kokainum disrespect you in any kind of way ?
I don't know, but whatever it was, I'm ignoring it. I'm thinking of finding an S13 mod of the same scale (or a few) then adding the chassis and parts of it into Thyago's release, creating many combinations of Onevia, Sil80, Type-X and many more. Hopefully it works.

Sounds awesome ! I'm really looking forward to the finished product !

You could add different roll cage type! Most good S13 mods dont have one which is annoyed.
Yes , I am finally back ! This week passed so fast I didn't even realise that today is Friday ! So , as usual , here's what I did this whole week , from Monday to today.
I worked a lot this week and I am really proud to say that my repair garage plan finally kicked off ! I have costumers and now I am my own boss. I will show you the cars that I work on from time to time so stay stoked !
Monday
So , on monday I bought this awesome JZX 100 Mark II that I really really love. I always had a passion for this model and I finally managed to put my hands on one.
Specs:
Pretty stock 1JZ with :
ARC radiator
HKS Fuel Rail
Garrett Twin Turbos
Greddy Oil filter
Everything else in the engine is stock.
Suspension:
Skunk Pro 2 shock absorbers
HKS Hypermax Springs
Vstanced control arms
Ford RS500 Brake discs
Ford RS500 calipers
Ford RS500 brake pads
Advan TC3 18" rims
Falken 245/25 18" tyres
Fully gutted interior with:
Recaro RHS HKS Seats
Deep Nardi black steering wheel
Bodypanels: Everything is stock
I paid 11325V$ for the car.
I am going to use this car as a daily car so eventually I will have to find the full interior (panels and carpets and seats etc). The previous owner wanted to make it a drift car , but he abandoned the project because he ran out of money sadly. I am probably going to drift the JZX this weekend so stay tuned.
I also ordered the front panels for the missile. They should arrive on Wednesday. I paid 1000V$ for the parts.
Tuesday
On Tuesday , a special kind of costumer arrived at my shop. Here's his car :
Yes , a K24 V-TEC swapped 94' Ford Escort Cosworth. The owner is working on making this car his rally car. The issue was just a busted starter so it was easy to fix. He paid me 350V$ for the job.
I also checked the belly of the JZX for rust. Its clean like a new-born baby's butt.
Wednesday
The front pieces for the "missile" arrived today ! Here's how it looks :
Yes , a 180sx front swap. How is this called even called if the sil80 is a 180sx with a silvia front , this would be a ...S180 ... ?
I'm gonna call it a S180 from now on. I also sent the S180 to the paint shop for a fresh repaint. It should be done tommorow.
I also worked on a 240sx today , it had some wiring issues , but I fixed them. I got 500V$ for the job. No pics because I had to do some other stuff that day...
Thursday
On Thursday , the S180 came back from the paint shop with this fresh new color :
Yep , a purple S180. I paid 1000V$ for the repaint. They also repainted the valve cover. The car now looks super sick in my opinion. I'm still deciding if I actually want to sell it , because that was my initial plan , but now I kinda fell in love with it...
I also worked on a 350Z today. Just an oil change , I got 50V$ for the job.
Friday (Today)
Today I didn't do a lot of stuff , I just checked the engine of the JZX ( I'm gonna call the JZX Carmen from now on. I really like the name ) and took it out for a spin. Here's some pics :
Thats the update for today. I am still deciding if I want to keep the S180 , but I have a bunch of awesome offers for it... I don't know what to do... Maybe you guys can help me out.
anyway , here are the balance : 24325V$-11325V$(JZX100)-1000V$(front swap parts for S180)+350V$(Cosworth repair)+500V$(240sx repair)-1000V$(S180s repaint)+50V$(Oil change for a 350Z)=11900V$ Left
#Jfernando1 :
Onevia is the term for a 240sx fronted S13. But good, Nice JZX.
Are the S13 parts available?
Oh , I didn't know it was called an Onevia... Thanks for telling me !
What do you mean about the S13 parts ? The S13 coupe mod that I have has some 180sx parts too. I didn't mod the mod.
Yeah , I'm in a kind of limbo mode... I love the car but I could also sell it to make some cash... I would sell it for between 10000V$-14000V$. Its in really good condition and it runs like a dream. What should I do ?
☑Welp , I decided to sell the Onevia. A really good offer came up and it was really profitable. I sold it for 13500V$. Here's the last pic you're gonna see of it...
☑It was fun putting it back together , but I really didn't need another drift car.
☑Also , the Cressida was repainted in a nice looking burple , here's how it came out :
☑They also repainted the wheels to a nice white. It looks awesome !
☑I paid 1050V$ for the repaint + the repaint of the wheels.
☑I was recently thinking about taking a trip to Japan and maybe even stay there for a couple of months and after lots of thinking , I decided to do it. I've already booked a flight there which is on 25th of October. I will be flying to Tokyo. I always wanted to go there and I'm finally able to. I am going to ship a car there but maybe I will buy some other cars while I'm there. I have a friend there which has a repair garage and does all sorts of awesome builds.
☑The car that I will be taking to Japan is the JZX. My friend also told me that he could buy me a small garage to keep my stuff and my cars there. I will be paying him when I get there. I will also buy a small apartment because I might go back to Japan in the future.
☑I am really excited for the trip , I can't wait to see all the awesome mountain passes and JDM cars !
☑A nice car will show up later today , but I'm not gonna tell you what it is. The owner said that when he goes over 60mph something starts knocking in the rear. I will have to check that out and repair whatever is broken.
☑I will also go to a meeting later today so stay stoked !
Balance: 11900V$+13500V$(Onevia)-920V$(Ticket to Tokyo)-1050V$(repaint Cressida)=23430V$ Left

Not just that, you saved from crusher curse.
#MACKAY :
That Cressida looks similar :)))
Anyways good luck in Japan lad..
I tried my best to not make it look like yours... but it was fitting the car so well ! Maybe I'll pay you a visit when I'm in Japan ...

I agree about the color and that is not a problem mate as it is completely different cars in my opinion, like day and night haha, also I sold mine recently.. Definitely, just contact me beforehand..:)

Alright ! I'll hit you up when I get to Japan .

Well , he arrived. When I first saw his car my jaw dropped. Here are some pics :
Yes , a Evo IX. This right here folks , this is my dream car. I'm gonna tell you some specs of the car :
-2JZGTE making 900HP under the hood
-full VStanced coilovers and control arms
-custom fabricated rollcage
-OEM interior
-and many more awesome things.
The owner told me that when he is going over 60mph something starts knocking in the rear , as you can see in the 3rd picture , the exhaust is kinda loose. He bringed a whole new exhaust pipe ( which is a straightpipe ) , I guess he wants me to replace the old one. Good thing that I don't have to fabricate anything. I'm gonna get to work. Just imagine a 900HP 2JZ engine straightpiped. I can't wait to hear the engine yell.
The job won't take too long , it's gonna be quick job. The owner also promised me that he will let me drive the car after it's finished. I CAN'T WAIT !
Good. It's a nice EVO. With the parts purchased off of you, there is a similar-ish car that will take them (not the same generation, or even model, but you'll see)...
#KondzixsPL :
Why somebody would ever 2j swap an EVO? Doesn't make sense at all.
More power maybe... Added 34 seconds later:
