After going thru some diagnostic chores, it was finally time to take the 14 back to Koji for some tuning. Hopefully, with the new cat and cleaned injectors, we could do a full boost tune without knocking.
Previously, we were only able to tune for 13-14 psi before it would start knocking.… Read the rest of this now >>
A lot of fun stuff… and not so fun stuff… happened today. It was a good chance for me to capture some more cool in-car footage from my GoPro, and also I finally tested the new engine build on the S14 at the track. With the previous stock build, I was able to get a 1:30 on 595 RSR tires.… Read the rest of this now >>
Technically, I should have been driving a Miata on this day. But unfortunately, it wasn’t ready for tracking. So, I ended up taking my S14 instead, which also was not prepared for a grip event (it had drift tires on it) but was at least mechanically okay. Here are 4 video, I hope you enjoy them.… Read the rest of this now >>
The thing with going to the Balcony… is that it’s just the Balcony. You get a handful of turns to practice car control, and when you have it all figured out, you’re mentally done for the day. And this can happen as soon as… Ohh… lunch time, if you’re good enough.… Read the rest of this now >>
Last Saturday was hands-down our best event yet, filled with excellent cars, lots of driving, perfect weather, and good vibes all around. Luckily, we were able to get access to some pics that our guests took. A few of the guys from Superwow Factory made it out to snap some sweet photos, and these are just a few.… Read the rest of this now >>
Almost a year ago, I snapped my super sweet Greddy GRacer Lip in half 🙁 Shortly after, I decided to test my luck by JB Welding the pieces back together. Well, that didn’t work. I was just too bummed out to post an update about it. Since then, this glorious lip has sat, collecting dust in the garage.… Read the rest of this now >>
On a spur of the moment, I decided to visit Nissan Jam 2014 at Connell Nissan with Eric. I haven’t seen this many 240sxs buzzing around the vicinity for parking since Drift Day. Arriving at the last hour of the event, I expected only a few cars to be there still, but instead it looks like we were able to catch the whole show.… Read the rest of this now >>
Alright, so we’ve all been there. You go under your car to check some things out, and as you’re crawling out from there, you notice something nasty, and it’s not the gross chick that’s been stalking you around town — you notice a torn boot on one of your ball joints.… Read the rest of this now >>
Finally here from the land of the rising sun, the home of drift and fighting ninja anime, the most expensive set of coilovers to ever rock my wallet and send me back into poverty, Endless Zeal Function X Suspension! The box reads, “We have passion for motorsports. We have advanced technology.… Read the rest of this now >>
These past two weeks have been… fun… aside from all the cuts on my hands and dealing with this super cold weather. I mean seriously, 30 degrees Fahrenheit in Los Angeles? Not sure if srs. So, the story goes that one day, this S13 started leaking a bunch of coolant onto the ground after a drive home from work.… Read the rest of this now >>
