Tried to make a comeback....didn't work out as planned
I know a few people have been waiting for an update. This will most certainly not be the update you were looking for. Due to some personal issues, and the shop fees being WAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY more than I'd budgeted for, I'm selling the JZS147. The car was "built" by Touge Factory of Chicago and the work was top notch. It's definitely pretty to look at, but I haven't even driven it yet, nor do I want to. Soley for the reason that it actually makes it a TINY bit easier to part ways with her. Most people that follow this blog, probably also follow me on instagram and tumblr, so you've already seen these pics, but I'll share them here anyway. This is essentially a photo dump and good by to this car. I don't know when I'll be back in the game but it won't be anytime soon.

The 3GS is gone... Meet the 1GS'
Well the 3GS is gone and I'm on foot (and train) for a while. Heres the last pic I have for her. I really liked the car but I had so many problems towards the end and crappy customer service from McGrath Lexus of Chicago, that I was actually happy to see her go.
So now its time to get the 1GS' I got a year ago up and running. The white car ended up having a junk title so I stripped it and junked it. It's a shame because it was SO CLEAN. Ended up getting a black one from Milwaukee (read RUST CITY), and that's what I'll be dailying, once I get it running (has some oil leaks). Progress on this car will be at a snails pace as I really have no money to put into cars right now. It's basically going to be all maintenance (unless an upgrade goes along with maintenance).
Wheels will be Amistads that I borrowed From Streetsliders Jeremy. White car came with aristo tails, aristo front bumper, and coilovers, so the car will have all of that at a minimum. From there who knows...

Trip to Chiba....
So we went up to Seed Racing to pick Aaron's Chaser up. Car actually has about 5 more kg of torqe and another 30PS or so. That along with the 4.1 final, Aaron says it's a huge difference. Guys at Seed were cool as always. I sold Morita (one of the mechanics who own's a 100 Cresta *sniff*) a set of Car Koubou fenders I had that I never got to use.... All in all a nice trip... sucks we had to work first thing in the morning though :/

Gettin' some gas on the way home...

You can see the beast we drove up in behind the chaser... Nissan Tida... damn thing had 6 cupholder IN THE FRONT lol

Customer's car JZS147 Aristo. All it had was boost up tune.

Aaaaaaand 6pot/4pot brake kit...


Widebody FC3S... I really want one of these... just scared of the engines lol.. they way I drive, I'd be poppin em left and right..
