Just a few more pics from the trip to Bayside Super Autobacs

Super AutoBacs
















Went to Bayside Super AutoBacs today to see Tanaka Kenji and pick up the new aero for the chaser. As you can see its on its last 'ziptie'. Took three cars to get the aero home. Look how much of a huge load is in the chaser.... meanwhile the drivers of the other cars couldn't see out of mirrors or rear windows..... anyway new aero is SERIOUS. Final Konnexion First Contact. Goes so hard... Hopefully it will be on and painted soon. We'll see....

It begins.....






Started working on the q-maru today. What a nightmare that was. This car has a long way to go. Horrible exhaust leak right at the turbine, shotty gauge/stereo install, and more. Today we gutted the rear (everything behind the front seats is gone), and swapped intercoolers w/ a friend. Long term goals are coilovers, diff, and five speed. Short term, we gotta figure out our steering issue, replace the brakes, and fix the exhaust leaks. More to come......

Back from the dead

So we haven't updated this page in a while. Alot has happened since the last post. Chaser was tuned by seed racing and its NASTY. Been to the track a few times. Attended the First Annual Gaijin Ikaten. Drove horrible and didn't qualify but it was a good experience. Much more has happened but I can't remember it all. Will try to keep this updated from now on.......

The chaser is back on the road and ready to be tuned!!!!
So the usual first place to go is the gas station for a car wash/ photo op.
