Riders on the storm 憶ラ浦ン

After a long day in the workshop, I went to Erwin's house to look for my things (since I was living in his house to get the workshop), to take them to the workshop (yes, I will spend the nights in the workshop to get money for rent a decent house lmao)
I took advantage and I started to wash the car, and some photos and videos came out, oooofffff

I'll leave the video already edited with the photos and videos!



Also I realized today that I need another car, a beater as much as possible to go from point to point by using it as daily , a car that i do not care if it is damaged aesthetically and if the car have a fault , i can repair it instantly and be economical, or directly throw it away if the failure is more expensive than the car, because in case of the skyline is very little "practical" and it is not a "daily" car, it is that is too nice to use every day, risking or scratching wheels, paint, or have an accident and run out of the car, so I need if or if a beater, to have a car for daily use already insured, to take care of skyline and be able to modify it to the crazy thing regardless of whether it will no longer be comfortable or whatever. If you have any beater, as much as possible a civic, let me know privately.

This post was practically stuffed because I did not do anything "interesting" in the car, but these beautyshots came out and I did not resist doing something hahaha.

This is all for today, see you later!

A small update...

Hi guys, I was with several problems (irl) that caused problems with the updates, so I gave myself some time ...
Now, back to the RP ...

I was using the Skyline as my Daily driver, and I do not know how I did it because, well, actually I do, but I drove it like a fucking granny lmao, but winter is coming, and I can not use the R32, because I'm scared of use it in good weather conditions, worse in the middle of winter...

So I need a beater or a good daily driver that I can do things to, but still be reliable and I do not give a shit if I hurt it, or if the paint gets scratched, or if I have an accident with the car...

Now I will go to see some cars, but I need some of you to help me a little, if you have some cheap car, like a 180sx, civic, corolla, integra type-s or some similar car, let me know...

Well, for the lack of updates, I'll leave you some old pictures of Angelina <3

(Yeah , that's skyline's name , what's the problem? lol)



When I can already have the new daily driver I will make a video presentation and some beautyshots ...

Well, until then, see you!

# Nightrunner : you can buy dc5 integra Type-S or even Type R , they are pretty cheap tbh
I like teggys , also , one of the cars that i'm looking is a Type-S DC5's (type-r's are over 7k , and i don't want to sell the skyline for buying a DC5 Type-R , At least a 5 speed A80 Supra...)
Also this car will be my daily driver/winter beater , so a type-r is too nice to ruin in the winter lmao , maybe i can find a high mileage one for cheap...
Or , a RX8 with a blown/missing engine for making a engine swap, maybe a ls1 or ls3 , or a 2uz-fe , or something...

(edit : I found two Type-R DC5 for cheap , a crashed one in one auction, and one with "high" mileage for 5k)

You know me , you know that i’m DC5 addict and i’m always gonna say go for dc5 lmaoo . I would suggest a crashed one . It would be a amazing project tbh and crashed type R DC5’s are pretty cheap ( For example my DC5 )

Yeeeah dude, i know, i'm also love dc5's so hard , the crashed one look very damaged , and the 5k one got 130000km , not so high , and very cheap for 5k
but i still think that is too much nice for winter car , for a future project i will pick up a DC5 Type-R , take my word , but i need a "beater" for these uncoming tough days, probably i will crash it , so i need some car that i don't really care if i crash it , and if i crash a dc5 or the R32 i will cry like a fucking baby lmao, maybe i will pick up the base model integra if i found one cheap, but i don't want to drive a type-r in winter , because i will crash it and drive it like a beater because i need a car for that use in winter, and a type-r is too much nice for use it like a beater lmao

Yo bro ! Sick update as always ! I'm really digging the way Angelina looks ! I love it ! The Millitary Green-ish color really gives the car that "godzilla" look ! I quite like it ! Keep her safe man , she's a beauty !

As for the winter car , ahh man , I dunno haha ! It really depends what you want from it , and in your case , something cheap and cool could work out pretty damn well ! My first choice for a cheap "beater" would definitely have to be a Kouki 180sx or something. You already know me man , I'm a huge Kouki lover so yeah ! You can find pretty cheap ones if you know where to look , but anyway , a rwd cheap and reliable car would definitely be the ideal winter car for you ! Maybe you could even keep it for some time and eventually go all out with it ! You already know I'm willing to help , so if ya need anything , you know who to call ! ;) But yeah , I hope you'll find something decent pretty soon ! Just so you know , you can drop by my place anytime ! I could even teach you some stuff about engine building and stuff of that nature , you never know when that knowledge will come in handy haha ! But yeah , whatever you decide to do , I'll support you ! ( except if you LS swap something , then we're gonna have to talk hehe ) Anyways man , I'll see you around , peace !

Erwiiiiinnnnnnnnnnn!!!!! How r' you dude?

Thankssss for the words!!!

And about the winter car , you know me since high school , so you know me pretty dan good lmao , i wanted something cheap , reliable , a car that i can drive like it was stolen , but really fun , and RWD , cuz i'm a freakin masochistic and i want to drive a drift missile in the snow and in the ice lmao, also i looked some dc5's but they're too much nice for use and abuse them in the snow , and the purpouse of the winter car is store the nice car for special times , and use the beater , cheap , little trash car for avoiding damage to the nice car...
Also , a friend got an imported "missile-ish" 240 with a blown single cam KA-T , maybe i can make an K-swap (for reliability and VTEC lmao , i'm transforming in Shingo LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL), will be a 160hp-ish fun rwd piece of winter junk , maybe i will pick it up, idk. also for avoiding the extremely mainstream SR swap...

Also about ls swaps , i'm pretty poor , so ls swap isn't an idea , but if i have the money i won't make ls swap to any car , except RX8'S , Rotary's are beautyful , but the renesis is JUNK , Change my mind lmao , the only japanese car that deserves an LS Swap, is the RX8 , more power and torque , lightweight , more reliable , and they pack more than 400hp in an n/a base, and they hold on boost pretty darn good, so if i'm going to ls swap a car , will be an RX8 with the renesis missing or blown lmao, but i need more than 6 grand for only the engine and parts for the swap (not counting the car price) , and i'm only with 6k , so if i get a RX8 , maybe i will get an 13B-TT from a wrecked fd or some cheap 2uz-fe with a ka24 5 speed gearbox, idk...

But i don't want an RX8 (NOW , because the project will need engine swap and i dont have the money , except in the case of the 240 because , a k24 you can find it from a crv in the junkyard for less than 1500$ with all the wiring , transmission , etc, put an s2k tranny , new clutch , flywheel , new driveshaft , the manual transmission ecu (if the engine got originally got an automatic transmission) , some little bits and ready 2 go , also kits for making k-swaps in 240's/200's/180sx are plentiful and cheap , so , if i get the car cheap i can make the k-swap.

But anyway , The winter car will be an s-chassi, maybe will be that missile-ish imported 240, but it will be an s-chassi for sure.

Anyway , if u want , you can pass by now to my workshop , go for a ride in our cars , drink some beers , talk about good ol' times , about new business , and some other things. Or if u want i can go to your workshop and help you with that S14 build and see all of your projects!

Thanks for everything my buddy!

(P.S : wtf ? , i didn't notice the green touches , because the previous owner painted the car in the gunmetal gray of the BNR32, maybe is the workshop light reflection , because in the outside pics the green isn't showing up , maybe the paint got some little green , idk)

(p.s 2 : Lol , now that i'm looking the workshop and outside pics , looks like the paint got a little of brown/bronze/gold , maybe is only the lights or maybe is the paint , this is the mistery of the millenium LMAO)

Thankssss dude! I'm very excited too, also i talked with my friend (who has a obsession with USDM **3's, idk why if here he can find ***** , but he wants the underdogs lmao) , he buys ***** here in Japan and in USA and imports them, and he modify them. he's the owner of the Missile-ish ****X with the broke (blown) **24e-t that i'm trying to buy, so if i don't buy that ***, i will buy some other one that he had , maybe i can find one very cheap , but that car is very nice, kouki tails , ******* front end, cheap ass coils, cheap rims in front , ******** in the rear, , the paint is a little chipped off and some panels got different paint, some dents and surface rust in the paint, cracked dash, but isn't that bad,the frame is straight af and rust free (california car advantages lmao) but the owner pulled off the engine already, so is only the shell, but a very nice shell, so i can make the k-swap , and have a 160hp ***/200hp *** swapped shitbox for winter , and later thinking about a turbo kit (if i don't put it while i'm installing the engine lmao) or who knows , maybe itb's , he asks 2 grand obo for the shell , so it's a very good price for an Missile-ish USDM LHD *** shell with some bits, and i think that i can make the swap with less than 3k with a junkyard *** from an *** (With all the wiring harness and other parts , a *** tranny or some other that is compatible, a ****** kit and some little shit more and it's ready. Or maybe a ***-**/***-** engine with a **** gearbox , i found a kit for that , so is another option lol
Or maybe some **** or **** , or maybe i will end doing the normie thing in ***'s ,** swap , but i don't want to ** swap , i want something different and with a clean shell all is possible , so this will be a great winter beater project!

I can't wait to get it running and make some dumb shit in the touges with all the snow with you lmao, i'm very excited!
Maybe you can buy one cheap *** from him and make in my workshop both cars for avoiding use the e36 in the snow, those cars are problematic with the rust

Anyway , call me if u need something or if u want to meet in some time
Peace!

Franklin Garage: New Winter Beater!


As you know, my only car is "Angelina", My Skyline R32 GTS-T, and it is in perfect condition, but I use it as my daily car.
And now that will be a problem because winter is coming and i do not want to damage my baby, so I had to buy a Winter Beater ...

Here I will leave the video of the update and below a few things to watch after watching the video ...

Thankssss dude! i tryed to cover anything for avoiding problems in the instalation and for get the best spec for the money that i needed, i'm really excited about this winter beater
Also, heck yeah, i will need help with this car, so if u want, pass by now and we can get started to fit the engine!
And the previous owner told me that i will need electric steering if the steering rack is almost touching some part of the engine, so we need to test, because this engine was in a RHD s13 , but now will be put into a LHD s13 , so we need to check that, If u want pass by and we can get started!

Peace m8!

A complete update!


Guys, first thing, sorry for my inactivity, i was very busy with several issues (in RL and RP), but at last now i can make the update!
I will show you all the work we did in the week with Erwin, who was helping me these days, as well as several other things I did this week...

October 13, 2018

9:30pm

Me : Hey mane, what's up?
Erwin : Heyyy , how's it going
Me : Great, and you?
Erwin : Very good, how's it Angie?
Me : Very clean as always, and your 33?



Erwin : With some aesthetic changes
Me : Which ones?
Erwin : You will see them in person
Me : Damn i'm excited, anyways, i need your help for something...
Erwin : Tell me



Me : I bought a 240sx for the winter beater project and i got a K20 for the engine swap and i need your help dude
Erwin : Nice! I like the idea! I have the weekend free, if u want i can go to there, i will grab some beers and bbq and in 20 minutes i will go with some tools
Me : Thank you dude! if u want stay here for the weekend
Erwin : I like the idea! How much work we will do
Me : We need to disassemble all the front panels, modify the subframe for fitting the engine, lengthen the steering column, modify the transmission tunnel and fitting the engine
Erwin : You have tools?
Me : Yes, but if u want bring some more
Erwin : Okay, no problem! In 15-20 minutes i will be there
Me : Nice! See ya!



20 Minutes later, Erwin and his beautyful R33 arrived, i was like a fool seeing that R33! Erwin , you picked up a very nice and clean r33 and make look more beautyful! Damn!

After so much admiration we set to work!



We put the engine in the side of the car for make the last pics of the car without the engine...



10 minutes later we dismounted the front panels and we making the plan for modify the subframe and the transmission tunnel without going 2 crazy and make a entire tube subframe, but then we were in our "break", talking about shit and from nothing we talked about something...

Erwin: Hey, you remember when you bought Angie?
Me: Yeah, i remember when i almost run over you for rae your ear with the rb20det melody lmao
Erwin: YOU FUCKING DICK!
Me: Hahahaha
Erwin: Hey, i know that you're so careful with your car, but i bet you a million dollars that you want to drift it...
Me: Heck yeah! But i don't want to drift it because i don't want to damage the 32, also i don't have spare wheels
Erwin: I got some ones in the trunk of the 33', Come on dude! You will enjoy it!
Me: Mmmmmm, okay, tonight we have to kill those spares!

10:00pm

We went to a parking lot in the outskirts of Osaka, put the spares, take off the plates and we're ready for starting the murder of those spares!



I swear that i enjoyed a lot that night! Angie behaved so good! Sadly my camera run out of battery, so i have one drift pic, but is a beautyful drift photo!



10:30pm

We went back to the workshop, we kept talking about the old times, about our projects, among other things, and so we continue until countless hours of the morning...

October 14th 2018

11:00am

We get started adjusting everything, placed the front panels, all the wiring stuff, etc



3:00pm

We finally "finished" to assembly the swap , but we need the driveshaft , but we didn't had it in that moment , so now we will test if everything works , checked the fluids, and trying to start it up



3:35pm

*Crank*
*Crank*
*Crank*
*STARTS*

THE K20A2 STARTS!!!!!!
At that moment we were jumping and crying, full of happiness!



6:00pm

Erwin left the workshop, he was a little busy and wanted to relax, so he left the workshop, and the progress done was all that we can do at that moment, so perfect! He helped me a lot with this project, so thank you dude!



October 16'th, 2018

2:00pm

The driveshaft arrived!

The missing piece arrived! At last we can make this car work!

Also in the boredom i made an exhaust system from the manifold to the end with an exhaust tip that I had thrown around, it was very good and it did not sound very bad, with two silencers the noise was enough ...



3:00pm

The driveshaft was put in place, the exhaust system too, the engine were running and the car FINALLY was running!!!
I'm so excited!



October 18'th 2018

3:00pm

We went to the "DMV" to register the 240! Hopefully we can pass the inspection...



5:00pm

IT PASSED! THE CAR WAS REGISTERED , FINALLY!!!

Now the winter beater is ROAD LEGAL! i'm so excited that finally i can drive this car ! Needs new coilovers ASAP , my coils aren't so bad, but i want some new coils because mine's are worn out, not so bad, but yeah.
Also i put the old spoiler, it was stored in the trunk, so a couple of bolts and ready 2 go!



7:00pm

To celebrate the achievement, i called Erwin and we went to drive on the highway to take some pics, going to a kind of shipyard to take some nice pics, but in the road was a lot of fog, so what do you think we would do? Obviously...

PHOTOBOMB!!!



8:00pm

We arrived to the shipyard so...

PHOTOBOMB!!!







I am very happy that things went so well with this car!

I still lack enough to get what I want, but it's a very good start for a very good project!

Peace , bro !

Yeah dude!! It was fun! From disarming the entire front, cutting and odifying the subframe, the transmission tunnel and the steering column axis, place the engine and start it, and in less than a week and be able to use it! It was a very nice learning experience!

That if, as you say, you need a good coat of paint, good tires and new coilovers to make it very clean!

Enjoy a lot this week that we put to make this car work!

The next things to do are: and

- New set of wheels
- Painting
- New coilovers game
- Hondata

And maybe later

- Camshafts Brian Crower
- Cylinder head work

And some other thing, but for now I will prioritize the first four things to do, and then we'll see what to do ...

About the skyline, i didn't like to hoon my nicer cars , maybe i will hoon the 240 soon, cuz is a beater, but in the skyline I am very afraid of damaging it, but it was very funny and luckily nothing bad happened, so next time we will hoon both cars lmao , so bring 2 sets of spares, 5 and 4 lug!

Damn! it was very fun to spend the weekend with you building this thing up, hooning the skyline and photobombing the 240! Thank you dude! Soon i will drop at your workshop to help you to build that Kouki S14! This time i will bring the beers and meat lmao

See you soon my friend!

OOOOOOO , PAPA MUZAHID IS HERE <3

Thankssss dude!!!
That's why i chosen K-swap , i love sr's , but are too mainstream and aren't the most reliable thing and i needed something reliable , and with 200hp N/A, it was perfect , and with the vtec , boi oh boi this thing is crazy in sensations, although you do not go too fast, the little or null isolation of this car, the immediate delivery of vtec power and noise (besides that I have a new exhaust system), it is a crazy sensation, AND I LOVE IT!

# Nightrunner : Oh wow . First time seeing something like this . K20 in S-chassis ? Y E S !

Thank youuuu!!!!
SR'S are beautyful , i had two , an N/A and a Turbo, they're beautyful, but weren't the most reliable thing ever, and sr swapping a 240 is TOO mainstream, so i chosen K-Swap , especifically the K20A2 (DC5 Type-S K20: 200hp), because the engine was almost as powerful in N/A form as a Blacktop SR20DET (205hp) , and mine's was a little modded with some things like intake and exhaust for fitting the engine (previous owner put it into a Silvia), so the power with those things is maybe like the new Toyota GT86 "A WHOLE 5HP" (lmao), the k-series is a reliable and modern engine, so for my use is perfect, almost nobody did a K-Swap to an S13, and those who did used the K24, but K20 Swap, not many, so I used it as the way to go, and I FREAKIN LOVE IT!

All these things made in the 240 were made more than a week ago, so there are some surprises that I have saved, so now I will do a mini update.

They are few things, but even so I think that you will like them...

A small update ...


As you know, yesterday I uploaded an update on the 240, but with things that happened around a week ago, and now after fixing some issues here they have a little update on the 240!

Let's see it!



Look at it, does not it look beautiful?



I picked in a classified one set of wheels "mesh" of 16 inches with tires for 1200$ (all used but in good condition) that were perfect! In addition my coilovers were not damaged, they were only poorly adjusted and they were very soft, a small adjustment and they were perfect

Also i put some stickers that are custom made...




One with the logo of the workshop in the back window



A NightKidz sticker and a phrase that is law! lmao (Don't mind the cracked dash , i will fix it)



Pretty little things that make it look great.



And luckily my economic situation improved! Since today I received my first monthly payment for my work, you will say, where do I work?

I work in a Workshop in Osaka, which specializes in modifications, and has several interesting builds that you will like, also has a section of exports of jdm cars, I'm earning good money and that will help me a lot with these projects, a thousand thanks to Erwin who took me there, He spoke well of me to all the modification workshops he knew, he helped me send the resumes, etc.
I'M VERY HAPPY! THANK YOU!
You make me progress dude! Thank you a lot!

Soon I will surely make some pictures of the builds that are in the workshop where I work!

A million thanks erwin! i owe you A BIG ONE!

In addition to the money that I earn from the workshop, I will need to buy and sell cars, so I will surely buy a car to sell and repeating the process for earning some money, and with these things mentioned above, like the money from the workshop and the buying and selling of cars that I will have to do, I could modify the skyline and make it a wangan car! Obviously very little by little, but my goal is to make Angelina return to her glory days in the Wangan! Angelina will be a long-term project so there will be enough material to enjoy! So stay tuned!

Hah , you're welcome man ! I'm really glad I managed to get you there though ! Seems like the payment is really decent too ! I'm happy about you , man ! But yeah , with more money in your pockets you'll be able to build Angelina into a beast , thats for sure ! I'm excited to see what the future brings you ! It's all gonna be better from now on , so I'm definitely very hyped ! I remember when I first came to Japan ... It was tough , but then Mackay decided to take me under his wing and he's pretty much the reason why I'm here and doing such things ! So yeah , I'm still really thankful towards him , and I decided to help you out too , just like he did to me , because why not ? It's always nice to help a friend out , so yeah , no need to thank me so much lol , it's all cool !

See ya around !

Still i can't thank you enough dude!
Now with the payment and the car resell thing that i will enter now i can get the money for the builds and overall making a progress
Thank you dude! The future is uncertain but as things go, it seems to be on a very good road, maybe the dream of going in two R33's over 280kmh in the wangan side by side will come true soon. I still do not believe how things are going! The workshop i'm in working is giving me more and more inspiration for these projects, there's a lot of interesting builds, and some are wangan cars, serious builds, not as Mackay's 34's, Your Devil R33 or Radcoon's S15 but really serious! that place is a Heaven and the payment is perfect for this progress on my automotive enthusiast dream!

I can't thank you enough!

You helped me a lot since I arrived in Japan, without contacts, without a car, without a house or workshop and with 14,000 dollars in a suitcase, you welcomed me in your house until I got the workshop, you helped me buy the 32, you built with me the 240, you spoke well of me in all places and you helped me get a job to pay my dream, I swear that if you had not helped me, I would have had to leave the workshop, sell the skyline and sleep in the 240. That's why I never modified the Skyline, because I was almost out of money, and that's the reason why I focused so much on saving money on the 240sx project, because it was bad economically

You gave me a huge hand always! I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH!

You helped me take my first steps to progress, and this was a very big step!

I can not thank you enough! Thanks for helping me in all dear friend!

New Project(ペべゟ)

1999 Nissan Silvia Spec-S



As you know, I will start buying, modifying and selling cars in order to get money for "certain things" that you will see soon.
So before yesterday night I started looking for auctions, classifieds, among others, until I found this...



A 1999 Nissan Silvia Spec-S, Yes, is the N/A version, but at least it is the manual 5-speed gearbox. It looked very good, despite the 214,000 kilometers, not so much but good, but the best was the price, 3750V$.

When I saw the ad and the photos i said to myself: This car is very good and the price is too tempting! I have to go see it!
After that, I called the owner, asked him about the car, asking for more information and after a chat we went to the McDonalds that is in the center of the city

I arrived and saw it ...






It looked perfect!
It sounded good!
And to have 214,000 kilometers it was very well preserved!

So I went with the owner to do a test drive and in two hours I had a new project!



I called Erwin to invite him to Mcdonalds for lunch and surprise him with the car

His reaction was just like mine, I could not believe he would find a stock S15 (even if it was the n/a) that is so well preserved and so well taken care of after so many kilometers
And less when i told him that the car cost me 3750V$

For that price you can only get automatic Spec-S, quite abused, well, not mistreated but you know what I mean, and the fewer manual Spec-S that are in between of 3200 and 4000 are quite/very abused and some are even riced, so this one was a good purchase!

We went for a drive going to the workshop



And the car, the truth is that it handled very well, it was a bit slow but obviously, the engine is the SR20DE with 160hp if I'm not wrong, and the 240 has 200hp with vtec on the K20, and the skyline has 305hp, so maybe they are sensations only, but in all things they behave very well!

We arrived at the workshop entrance and started the photos!



Later we entered to the workshop and more pics!




If you ask me what is my plan on this car, my plan is to modify it a bit, I will change the suspension, because although it is well managed and has a set of shock absorbers and springs, they are not adjustable, and I plan to exchange them for coilovers So if anyone is interested, let me know by private, I also plan to change the wheels, modify the brakes, put a turbo kit and some more, and then on sale, so I can earn good money and move to another car, it will be a medium project, but I'm not going to stay like the 240 or the R32, but I'll modify it, I'll keep it for a while and then for sale!

I have several things designed for this car, stay tuned!

I also didn't expect at first glance to buy an S15 , but i saw the ad and i had to buy it lmao.
We will get dirty working on this thing: Coilovers, BBK, ofc turbo kit, exhaust , maybe tomei cams, wheels, maybe a bodykit, interior stuff, some nice goodies!
I will hate to sell it but that's the destiny , but i will keep it for a little while!

Let's do it!

Farewell, My love...


On Tuesday i was in the workshop, quiet, thinking about what to do with the S15 and check my emails, and I receive a message sent to me by a forum of a guy nicknamed "SuperSupra512" who wanted to buy my old SR20DET 240SX that he had before, I said I sold it months ago, but I had other cars that I did not want to sell, but if I made a good offer I could sell some of them, I pass their contact information, we arranged a meeting in Osaka and we talked about the cars, we went to the workshop and I showed him the S15 and the 240SX



He was very intrigued with the 240, he liked how he behaved, the appearance and the car in general. I told him I was asking $7000 and ...

I no longer the Winter beater owner, i'm very sad, and if it was not sad enough that he sold the 240, something sadder will come...





I was looking in the forum classifieds, and saw that
Skip was selling a very special car, a 1995 Toyota Supra (Twin-Turbo) with 98,500km and the engine was rebuilt 360km ago, freshly painted, full Blitz bodykit with Chargespeed wing, Volk Racing F-Zero wheels, fresh respray, etc, a beautiful car !, and I offered him an exchange...



I offered my Skyline R32 GTS-T for his Supra, he liked the deal, but he also wanted a little money (3000V$), so...




I'm the proud owner of a 95' Twin-Turbo Orange Supra! I am very excited to start with this new project!, but at the same time I am very sad...

I'm very sad because i am no longer the owner of Angelina, This is what made me sadder.



It hurts me to have let go two cars that I love so much...



Let go the K-Swap 240 after rescuing and restore almost completely...



Let go of Angelina after having fallen in love with her so much.

I'm about to cry, I'm going to be too sad. But at least both cars are going to homes where they take care of them.

Today is my last day with both cars, Skip will bring here the Supra and he will be taking the Skyline, and SuperSupra512 will come to pick up the 240.

Take care of my babies as much as I did guys, please.

Holy. Fucking. Shit.

God damn man , this was probably the most unexpected thing you've done in a long long while ! I'm just out of words right now....

So first of all , god damn man , you're fuckin' crazyyy !!! Hahaha ! I'm so hyped for you , man ! So happy you finally ended up with a Supra ! Ahh the memories... The Supra was also the first big and iconic car I've owned and completely restored , and man , for several months , since I sold it , I started missing is so much !!! Ahh damn... I miss my Supra , man. But yeah , seems like you're following my steps ! I won't lie to you , if you do end up like me , you're gonna have the best life ever. Hopefully I won't end up buying another Supra or something , thats the last thing I need right now lmao ! I just have so many cars , I literary don't have space for another one , even when the R33 is stored for the winter , but oh man... I miss owing a Supra ! The sound of the 2J hasn't left my head ever since I've first started the 2J after restoring the Supra... Seems like I keep falling towards buying another one. I guess I'll have to hold myself , I don't wanna buy another car , I already have enough !

Second of all , what are your plans for this amazing beauty ? Since y'know , I know my way around 2Js , we could probably y'know... give it the Erwin's treatment , that being turning it into a complete god damn monster ! If you decide to do that , hit me up , bring it over , and I'll make sure to schedule it as my next build/job. If you have the money , of course , but still , we can both work on it , after all , it's your Supra and it's my pleasure to work on these cars ! Either way , I'm sure the Supra will turn out absolutely amazing , and yeah , congrats on owning the first japanese iconic car , man ! The Supra was always in my heart , I just love everything about it , even if I actually own a Skyline , I still wish I owned a Supra too , so yeah man , good luck with this beauty , I already love how it looks !

Third of all , kinda sudden turn of events ! As I said before , I absolutely didn't expect this to happen ! Saying goodbye to a car that you love so much really hurts , I know how it feels , the same thing happened with my Supra back when I sold it , and once again , I miss it so much ! Angelina is in good hands though , Skip has owned and taken care of cars and don't you even worry about it ! Trust me , next time you get a Skyline , it's probably gonna be a GTR , so yeah haha ! Get ready for that ! If you follow my advice , your life is gonna turn out amazing , trust me. About the K-swapped 240sx , ehh , it was fun working on it , and it was definitely an interesting project , but it was just a winter beater , man. I know , it was something different and I'm more than sure you had plans and everything sorted out for it , but still man , now you own a Supra ! As far as I know , Osaka doesn't get much snow in the winter , all the snowing happens in the northen part of Japan , so don't worry about it , I'll make sure to inspect it frequently if you do decide to use it as a daily car for the winter. Also , the S15 , man ! I can't wait to see how it turns out ! I can't wait to see the update on that thing , it's gonna be great ! But yeah , you could also just keep it and use it as a daily car or something , after all , you've got it for a really cheap price , so it isn't that bad if you end up keeping it. Anyways , I'll be expecting your answers , so yeah , I'm really excited for everything ! Also , as I said man , your life is gonna be so much better in Japan , and look at this.
