I've been trying to get back in action, but some *** ran into my Z31 before I could do the S13 suspension and rear subframe swap, so now I'm back to looking for a RWD car. Currently putting together a U13 Altima as a beater.

White Mike probably has all the vids on his computer. I don't know if it's still there or not, but there was video from one get-together at the industrial park with all the cats from out of state (couple cats from DGTrials)....used to e on streetfire and I had a couple vids on my old comp. We need to get all this **** together and on one site!!!!

Been buried with BS (job, back and shoulder injuries) since losing the Z31, I wish we could all get together again... Hell, I wish I had a my S13, S30 or Z31

HAHA I know you weren't white Mike. I haven't seen or heard from him really since I took his car off of his hands. Matt I believe is back in bmore. He is doing the band thing hardcore. Kyle lives up near Philly with the family. Still has that coupe we drove all night to go get, not running though. HE was going gze but back to regular bluetop to have it running again. Bill lives in Michigan, I talk to him on AIM or FB occasionally. Josh is actually in town until Monday then he is back to Cali and working at BLU808. We know Donnie is in JDMland. Euhan has been floating around dealers and such(Subaru in Rockville right now I believe). I talk to him semi often. He has a sw20 that he put a Camry v6 in.

It has been almost 10 years hasn't it? Time flies doesn't it? My car is at least almost drivable again. We have been doing some serious work on it since last April. I guess you could say it is almost finished but there are still so many things I want to change.

Here is some pics I had around.....

Traded the Corolla for this...


Got t-boned by 2 cars on my birthday, so I was down to the CL.

Talked to White Mike a couple times and he was trying to sell his car. But he wanted more than I was going to pay. I told him to call me when it was do-able. Got a call in a couple of months and got this from him.

And I have slowly been working on it since 07 I think is when I got it.

And this is just about where we are now.

This is after I got all the rest of the suspension on and aligned. Euhan worked on the ride height for me and did the alignment. It is going to need to be adjusted again once I get some real tires. No more 215 and 225's for this turd.

That is about as far as it goes with the cars.

I still did some land speed racing until a couple of years ago with this...

I trapped 199.5xx in a standing mile. Built motor with a 150shot. It was fun, almost died at 190+ one time.

cant find the pics from that. Chunk of concrete came up under braking jumped the bike up and sideways. Bent both rims, mashed the secondary exhaust pipe/collector and ripped half the lower bodywork off. Buuut I saved it.

Anything else?

Matt asked me to give you this info sir.

I am actually supposed to see Josh today before he heads back to Cali. Who knows though, something always happens. Josh really is the big shot these days. Him and DJ are the only ones who went hardcore after the old days. I will be lucky to catch up one day haha.

As soon as these hurdles stopp popping up. I plan to wear this pos out and get my moneys worth. This chassis is only for the test and tune really. I hate me some hatches. Any of the others I prefer, leaning towards a vert kind of.

Awwww snap! Thanks Randall. I'll hit him up after work.

You no likie the hatchs?!? I'd love another hatch (unless I find a blue two-tone zenki coupe)....'Course, at the rate my search is going, I might end up with a FC or Starion.

I love coupes, too. A S13 is a S13..... but there's something about the coupes. Stiffer chassis, cooler looks.

I was doin work yesterday. Drove to Winchester to drop off a VQ and pick this stuff back up. Half of it is paper weight anyway. I bet it didn't help the gas mileage.
