This is where I will be documenting things that happen to the car, and maybe other things, idk

Here she is in all her stock glory, picked up this beauty back in Nov. 2011. It's a 96 with 120,000 on the odo, and came with thoses fiiiiine Enkei Whatevers.



I got a dog as well



In typical clubroadster fashion I picked up a set of racelands, xxr's, cheapo falkens, and isc top hats for the rear.





Tires 195/50/15



Some goodies


Test fit 15x8 et 0 (I stuck to the clubrodster manual with this setup, standard issue)



Massaging (I had algea issues, you wanna fight about it?)


Next was a r-speed front lip, stupid hat included. (Dragula, and redfred18t cameos)


Did that for a while

The following year I ordered these, 15x9 et-15


Also these AK v1 carbon.


This


That



195/50/15 falken 512 on a 15x9



Ichiba hubcentric bolt on spacers, 10mm up front, 17mm in the rear





Nardi 350mm deep corn



Also got new fenders, a hood, and a bumper cover. They were already painted black, and a good price.


So I ran the car like that for the season, also built a shed to store the car

Trapped


Clearing a path, had a lot of work planned for the car this year.

A glorious day it was.





More Falken 512's.


Bought these off someone on the here, Megan Streets.


Went to the Kaizen Tuning open house and grabbed these


Tires mounted.
Wheels 15x10 et 0
Tires 205/50/15



I wasn't the only one to get Works this year, group buy:bouncin:. Left to right, Me, Dragula, RedFred18t.

Next up was H2oi 2013.

Bright and early.


The real JDM, rest stop photoshoot.


Made it



On the drive back I lost clutch pedal pressure, had to pump the clutch for 9hrs. Replaced the the master, slave, and put a braided steel line in when I got back.

My replacement Meister came in not long after I got back from H2o

Shortly after getting the clutch sorted, it was time for another Lock City event at Limerock Park (Driftober). Dragula lent me his foxy body wheels with some adapters so I could burn some 15" tires I had.


This was a really fun event for me

I've been trying to take more photos myself, took a few shots before I put the car away in 2013.

Once last look by superkamikazee, on Flickr

This photo pretty much wrapped up 2013, the car was stored in the shed for winter, and what a long winter it was.

So that brings me up to 2014. Not much to say for 2014, I haven't done anything to the car yet, I only just recently got it out of the shed, and I've been busy with finishing my basement. The drift season doesn't look too good this year, not many events (no Limerock this year), but maybe as the year goes on a few more may pop up, who knows.
