Q's New Era Hachiroku Ryan's SW11

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.

New shoes.  Do they look big?  ??  They’re not.  I haven’t mentioned it, but we bought an Echo sedan.  I have friends with Echo’s… they all give me tires.  I have like four full sets of 185/60 14 now.  If I’m going to go drifting next year, what could be better?  Am I going to go drifting next year??? I […]

Not really… or at least really slowly.  Step one of my winter plans was to get rid of the red in my engine bay.  It actually drives me kind of crazy.  So I started by stripping everything, with the intention of just giving it a good scrub and a coat of paint.  But then I noticed that some of the […]

Progress?



1

Get it?  I said I was going to pull 100lbs out of my car this winter and although it seemed like a long shot at the time, I’m actually getting more and more optimistic about it as I progress.  I’m already about 20lbs down, and I don’t even feel like I’ve done anything yet.  No… I’m not going to strip […]

Stretch And Squish

OK… so there is nothing going on at the website… but in my garage there is LOTS going down.  One late season auto-x missed… and I have no regrets.  Fall car life is once again pretty much how it should be.  I am overwhelmed by memories of the past every step I take, crunching leaves from my back door to […]

I Call This Look…

Look!  No booster.  It’s really easy… I don’t know why I didn’t do it sooner.  Although, I still have no idea how it actually feels.  I guess I’ll add more details later on.  Total cost so far though… 0$.  Although I’ll pick up some studs and press them into the plate rather than using a nut and bolt.  Everything else… […]

A New Feeling


We got just a skiff of snow this weekend, and that was enough to lock me into my plan of ending the season and preparing for next.  It seems a little pre-mature, but if I’m honest, auto-x had gotten a bit boring and I find it pretty hard to justify $150 for a morning of drifting at a horrendous venue.  […]
