Maui

We are leaving in a couple hours from now.

See you in a week!!!

This week

Two things going on.

 

Tomorrow I graduate college.

Friday, leave for Hawaii.

 

Come on Friday, lets go already

KOGNITION

I got a nice new part in the mail today. One of the few USA parts I will have on my car.

Mike at Kognition makes some AWESOME carbon parts. They are real quality and worthwhile.

Really cool carbon center console/shift plate/whatever you call it.

Weighs basically nothing.

I love it.

 

I bought a bunch of parts from him for my S14, so this was a no brainer.

 

 

More parts coming soon….

Tuesday after work

CIDERS!!!!!!

A came over to hang out with Mary….and I am here too.

HANG OUT town.

There was a gross baby show on TV about many babies in one tummy. YUCK.

 

Uh oh, Gotta test myself in Wii Fit!!!!

MORE 180SX

I also put a new Safety21 7 point through dash on order today.

Should arrive in July sometime.

Thanks Meng.

 

I love Safety21 cages. so good. I ordered one for the 14 and went classis “dash escape”, but this time, I thought I would go crazy and go Through Dash like old Itai 180sx.

 

Still deciding if I want to do Cusco padding in this one or not.

I THINK i might do no padding….. we’ll see though

Wyder’s

Oh you crazy Canadians!

 

I love your ciders.

Today is RASPberry. You maple leam maniacs putting alcohol in tasty beverages.

DMAX bonnettto

The new hood.

THe rear vents are just…. odd I guess.

Wii

We just got Mario Kart Wii and Wii Fit recently.

damn, thanks Wii Fit for making me feel like a FAT ASS!!!!

 

also, Tony Angelo is the fastest at Mario Kart. he must cheat

other 180 stuff

I’ve also got a sweet Japan cluster already for the car that YUSEF gave me a long time ago.

I am going to rice this thing out so bad. As many JDM parts as possible.

yeah I don’t care. I think it is cool… in a dumb way.

I also have an order for some Ganadors that should hopefully come soon from VS Japan.

 

I am still deciding on a color. I was going to paint it the same blue as my 14, but Jack painted his car almost the same color and some dude on zilvia is building one that looks same color AND has the same exact wheels I have. damn.

 

so, thinking about changing colors……  ugh

BH 180SX

So, I have wanted to make a sweet 180sx (okay, don’t bitch at me and say it is not a 180sx because it isn’t an authentic Japanese car) for a while now, and I am finally going to.

I’ve wanted to, and expected to, for so long. I’ve bought tons of parts for the car even though I never had one. I just like to buy good stuff when I find deals!

 

ANYWAYS,

back to now.

 

So, I just got a nice DMAX hood this weekend for the 180. I’ve liked the Koguchi Power hood for years and years, but never really thought it was going to be economically easy to get one here. Then DMAX comes around and BAM, looks pretty similar. So I got one. nice.

it is kind of strange. They have a weird vent towards the windshield part that needs to be bolted together. ii comes just “hanging” there. I don’t know how much I like it. I wouldn’t mind fiberglassing over it, but that sounds like way too much work. By the way, it is a FRP hood becuase I’m going to paint it anyways.

Cost was pretty damn nice.     I’m happy.

 

I also bought a complete set of BNR32 brakes, which I’ve wanted too. I have ER34 brakes right now on the 14, so I didn’t want to put regular Z32 ones on the new car. These R32 brakes look a little different and probably work exactly the same. haha.

They come with calipers, rotors, new rebuild kit, drum assembly, pads, etc.

can’t wait to get them. Going to paint them gold with red letters. BREMBO knockoff!!!!!
