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.

Note: These charts are for fun.  Don’t confuse them for us being hard core and bad ass.  Check it out.

August sixth is approaching fast, which all of you should celebrate as the day of hachiroku. For me, this day has extra significance, as it marks the day which I bought my fifth AE86… which was the first of two cars I bought and planned on keeping forever. Both of those cars are gone now… and in hindsight, I can […]

Married and Zenkei Coupe Divorced


Time flies. I ordered a set of Sportmax for my Corolla. Not a fantastic wheel by any means. Don’t think like I think this is cool. But… I sold my Star Sharks and needed something cheap to roll around on. Sportmax are that… and they’re a good size to boot. The car doesn’t seem to be going anywhere… so… I’m […]

Chinese Mass Production Victims



Will I ever give up AE86? I had dinner with some boys last night. Real… race car boys… Elise drivers, hard tuned Honda drivers, guys who will embarrass you in an unmodified car… People I’ve known for years, but never been all that close to… just cause I’m anti-social. But… these guys… are smart enough to call me on all […]

Swagger


Offers on the 86 this week… but… again I couldn’t pull the trigger. I haven’t even been watching InitialD or Best Motoring lately. So… imagine what could happen if I did? I guess I’m keeping this car. That could be a choice with major consequences. Maybe it won’t even get on the road this year. I think that’d be alright. […]

Zenkei Coupe – Up in the Air



Running with angle on snow can still be very fast.Rally-x again yesterday. Andrew's BC6 is coming nicely. STRD threw on his CES 3" turbo back on Thursday (we were never going to get around to it) and some tune-up parts were added by us on Saturday. It didn't like rev's much before, and we always ended up shifting way before the limiter... but now, it sneaks up fast, and you wish it would rev higher. [...]

Co-Driving the BC6 at Rally-x


Pulsar’s gone. Whatever. Stop sending me emails to tell me I’m whipped. You don’t even know what that means. I’ve done my thing and it’s time to move on. These have been easy decisions… I’m sad to be leaving, but if you knew what I was trading it all for… AE86 is still hanging around. It might stay… we’ll see […]

Pulsar is Gone.
