When I look at my AE86 now, I wonder if it isn’t almost something called “done”. Of course there is always more than can be done, but as the car currently serves little purpose for me, it seems somewhat meaningless. …

Past Projects
In the fall of 2001 Ryan and I started assembling and modifying cars together. All started in different forms, some from scratch, others from near full build requiring only tweaking and tuning. Nevertheless, all of these cars have been ours… we have a tendency to go through a lot: lots that never even made mention here, and some that I spent hours writing and thinking about. It is some form of A.D.D…. really. In the first few years after we teamed up, neither of us managed to make it through a single season with one car. They came and went. Mostly it was because we liked to dream, but it was also partly because there was always someone willing to buy. Cash just looks so good.
Now everyone’s situation has changed drastically, and I at least… have settled down. I’ve locked in with my AE86 and our daily driven ZJ. Andrew has now had his BC and E34 (which I have yet to detail) for an earnest amount of time, and Ryan well… I can’t imagine him ever finding a buyer for his car so…
Maybe that means things are boring now, but at least there is some variety in the past.
Note: These charts are for fun. Don’t confuse them for us being hard core and bad ass. Check it out.

I helped out at an SASC Winter Driving School yesterday. Very good time. I enjoy the challenge of 4WD, and the opportunity to reflect on driving by observing others. These scratch marks were observed after I got out of the…

This is pretty crazy. I tried putting the tires contact with the ground in the same place. I don’t think my car was particularly high before, but it’s much lower now. The rear spring is only half an inch shorter,…
Doing Some Work… ahh… err… ahh

I wanted to do a lot, but I’m really not finding time/energy to get out to the garage. I have at least, ordered new tires. The Azenis are still good, I just wanted something shorter… obviously really really badly. I’ll…

She’s going to be deep into cars I think. At least she teases me by looking at pictures of cars with me on Noriyaro or Speedhunters, and she loves to call out “tanoshii” while riding along. Being a responsible dad,…

I had to make up for my heavy weight shift knob somehow.
It needs a bit of clean up still, but the scale says I’m down more than 1700grams. That’s more than 3 shift knobs! I’ve got a pile of…

I’ve said before, I hate the dinky plastic shift knobs that come on most cars. Many of you agree with me, and replace your shift knobs with big fat plastic shift knobs… I don’t really get it. A gear lever…
