So after arguing with myself for a long time, Ive decided to get back into the drift world. Its too hard to stay away, and being at events and not being able to compete pretty much drove me crazy. So, I went and picked up my new project... a 93 base model 240sx hatch. ...

I will start off by thanking AutoAgenda.com with their excellent customer service and super fast shipping to me. It was great to be able to install them on a long weekend. I did not measure my stock height, so I do not know how much I dropped it, nor do I really care. I had Pedders 0 drop...
Started the teardown of my $100 T-bird SC motor today. Came out of a front-end collision automatic car. Holes knocked in the oil pan and valve cover. Gonna see if the block and crank/rods are worth saving, then I'm gonna start building back. ...

I'm through with Mustangs until I can afford a Shelby GT. So I'm keeping Truck Norris and putting a little money into him later on. This summer, however, I've got a few engines that need could be candidates for a home. No Mustangs here. (Thank God, right?) I've got a few cars in mind. ...

My brakes make this horrible squeeling noise all the time, from the front. So naturally the pads are low right? Well I bought some new hawks and took the tires off only to discover i have plenty of pad left except the inside one on the passanger side which is virtually not there anymore. My rotors...

Of course, when I register the Miata and take the Subaru off the road, the first time I go to drive it I get this weird clicking noise. I had the s/c belt off to check for any notchiness or strange play in the s/c, but it feels fine... I'm thinking its the belt trying to hop a rib or something. ...
Interior weight reduction. I have never gotten into this mess hands on, but obviously the seats, dashboard accesories, carpet, insulating tar, door panels, and anything else I'm forgetting.. adds to the lag I don't prefer. For those of you who have done this I was just curious where is the best...
