Musical Wheels

Woke up really early this morning cause Brooklyn wanted to go downstairs. I set her up with some food so I could play the wheel swap game. I decided to put the AMEs back on the S13 and put the Prodrives back on the S14. Looks like the 13 can use a kit now, don’t you think?

I miss the S2000

A few years ago I started my drifting life in a 2000 Honda S2000. It definitely wasn’t the best platform for drifting but it was what I had at the time. It was Cindy’s favorite car that we’ve owned at the time and one she always says she misses.

I remember grabbing this photo off someones site. Im sorry I forget who but check out this S2000. Really nice to see cars being used and not just for show.

Bruce’s Birthday and the Bus

Again, it’s not a new electronic band but it’s actually Bruce’s Birthday at 5 Guys Burger Joint in Beaverton. 2nd time going and it was packed as usual. Leaving the parking garage that day, I saw some cool bus’s on campus. Oh how I miss my bus…

The Noble, S14, and a Wrapped Dodge

They have nothing in common but I did see all 3 in a span of 1 hour when I was going to the SF Auto Show to pick up the S14. It was so odd to wake up and see the truck. I thought to myself, if its new, why would it be wrapped. Walked up to it and saw the saran boxes on the floor. What it must be like being 16 again..

The Noble at the Carshow.

Oh boy, here it is..

Oh.. and btw, I’m trading my S13 for the new Rolex Submariner here.

Miata Heads

I get a link from Wilson, the Dentist, yesterday and it linked me to a photo of the green miata shown below. After checking out the Kinod blogs, I realized these guys were into kinda into Miata’s. I almost came close to picking one up a few years back but decided to pass. These cars when fixed up look awesome and a good friend, Ricky Silverio would definitely appreciate this post. Check out a few shots by the KINOD guys.

More 964 madness

This one’s great. Love the details and the clean lines.

964 C4 Madness

I’m feeling the non-widebody lately..

My definition of relaxation

Relaxing to me is to be at home on the weekend, pull out the drift cars and stare. Sure drifting is tons of fun but that hasn’t been an option in Norcal for over a year. Most of my time away from home is spent on a plane and/or working on projects at the Swoosh. So sitting, playing and chilling with Brook and Sky in the backyard is like heaven.

Skylar Chillin Out

Front tires need changing soon. They’ve been used hard at the last event.

Kicks, Whips and Airplanes

Zoom Air Harbor is probably my favorite shoe of 2008. I’ve never worn a pair so many times in a year but I have to say, they’re comfy and can last a whole days wear. I got these the other day and I’m sure to get more than 10 uses out of it.

Skyline R32 GTS, I believe. I’ve heard of a few Skylines up in Oregon. This one in particular had Washington plates on it and from what I hear this one is a GTS-T, not a GTR as the badges on the car state. GTS-T is the rear wheel drive version Skyline aka the drift version. I’ve always wanted one of these R32’s so if this guy is selling, hit me up!

Ahh, San Francisco. Leaving rainy Portland and to see clear night skies in the City is always refreshing. I hear it’s going to be about 70+ today in SF. That’s ridiculous for a November.

Scion TC Fatlace Edition

So here’s the Scion TC. Many thanks to Andy & Garage Inc. for doing a great job on the build. I’ll have photos of the other cars in the Tuner Challenge but here’s a few to hold down the fort. The car was built to be used on the street. You wont have to worry about breaking anything and if you wanted to ride 4 people in the car, all you have to do it take out the harness bar which was wrapped in suede leather… Here’s some photos..
