Me and my buddy

2010-04-29T10:19:00.000-07:00

My good friend chris just got a 93 mr2. It has a few problems and a lot of miles but he got a great deal for it. Now im not the only mr2 in my area. Plan on seeing more updates with his car and mine.

How she sits now

2010-04-27T23:56:00.001-07:00

love the new lip and i love the lowness but cut springs suck!! finally got some shock and springs on the way. may sit higher but going to drive a lot better :-)

Thanks Earl

2010-04-27T09:47:00.000-07:00

thanks earl for the sticker....im glad i could do anything to help haiti. also people in haiti still needs help!! just cause they don't show it on the new's anymore means there ok.

Also did some work a while back on my car.....we did a vac test to see if i had any leaks.

turned out to be a bad intercooler pipe

so my buddy jacob cut up his old intercooler pipe so we can fit it on my car.

i'll post some more pics later of how my car is sitting...and what i got coming.

Greddy 2

2010-04-06T23:30:00.000-07:00

This is 2 has everything i like...full Greddy lip kit and wing, one off paint, good fitment, and some power to have some fun. Im really liking the square look wing on mr2's.....i kind of want one on my car. Will more like an nsx-r type style wing.

No computer

2010-04-06T09:49:00.001-07:00

So i haven't had a working computer lately.....So i've been kind of pushing back all my posts. I have been working on my car lately. Just put on a new intercooler pipe that my buddy made for me. Its not the best fitting but we worked with what we got. I feel as if your working on your car and you fix a few things....You find new broken things that need to be fix. Its like you take 10 steps forward and then 5 steps back. Anyways the car is running a lot better and is hitting full boost. No i need to put my fuel cut back so i don't blow this car up. New vac lines are coming up and intake and intercooler. I'm shooting for the end of summer to have the engine running like new and riding on new springs and shocks.

i want my bay as clean as this.

also i wanna give a shot out to earl from earlclectic for sending me a wfc+haiti. Haiti is still going through hard times. So if you guys can do anything to help go for it. Never let anything hold you back and never let anyone stop you from your dreams. Also if you have some free time check out earl's blog..he's on my links.

2010-02-24T22:16:00.000-08:00

Will i really haven't updated much on her lately....but i never really gave you guys a run down on her. Its a 91 toyota mr2 turbo with a jdm engine swapped in. The owner before me did that....and sure he got the car too run. He did not do the best job. i know this cause i am fixing a lot of his problems. Anyway he's a pic of when i first got the car.

Now i add a few new things...and sadly had to take off my rims. Didn't have enough money for tires and also i wanna get them refinished. Also the paint isn't as nice as it use to be. When i first got the car i was and clay the hell out of her. Then i put nu finish on and it F up my paint. Anyways i have stock wheels on a new lip. i'll post some pics of her tomorrow...after i wash her down.

So i noticed i really haven't been keeping up with this blog. All i do is throw up some cars pics and videos and call it a day. I wanna show you more of my car life and my real life. I love cars and they will always be a big part of my life, but its not first on my list of things to work on or spend money on. I'm a broke college student struggling to make it threw pay checks. But im not letting that keep me down and making my life dull. I am going to have small updates for anything from food to cars to me and my friends and what i do.

glow in the dark green is the color he went with. he put a lot of hard work in to his car...and also borrowed a lot of tools from me to get the job done. it was always cool seeing his car change over the times. always had good times working on this car or just out at a meet.

I got to show some love to the stanceworks guys. driving there cars slamed to the ground. also got to show some love to fluffywhitem3. ever since he got this car he always seem to have some bad luck (http://www.stanceworks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2041) but im sure that's going to change.

Meet at ATS racing

2009-09-29T20:04:00.000-07:00

This past weekend was one of the biggest meets for mr2's in the usa...i think. It was a 3 day event that started friday and ended sunday. the First night was a dyno and drag event. Had some ever fast cars out there. Sadly i didn't get to go cause of work and no money. So i'll post pics and videos form other people.

and red sw20 that put down 340 to the wheels.

now i've seen this car...and i love everything about it. i saw this car last year at the supra meet here in houston, and thats when he just finished it. that time it put 430 or more to the wheels on low boost. now it has 700whp!!!!!!

taking it off the trailer...this thing is just to sick!

more to come later this week.

hyundai genesis test drive day

2009-08-03T09:28:00.000-07:00

This past weekend hyundai had a test drive day for the new genesis coupe. It was really fun getting the drive the two models. The first one i drive was the 2.0 turbo. it was ok it had power but it just didn't hit hard enough for me. Just needs some more boost. After that i jump in the 3.8 v6. I liked this model alot. Has great power and torque. They both hug the turns really good....can't wait to see more on the streets with some mods done.

They also had rhys millen drift car there....i'm not to sure if it was the real one or a back up car.

I also got some videos i'll post up later. Now its time for a long work day :-(

Team drift in houston

2009-07-30T21:39:00.000-07:00

This was a drift a event i went to with a few friends a while back. It was a great show...quite a lot of people signed up to go drifting. They also had some people from new orleans. This stall makes me want an FR car. I'll get one soon enough...anyway on to the pics.

this is the only toyota chaser i know of in the us....and i love everything about it.

Ok so there's this really cool shop called 786mortoring (more about them later). Its owned by two brother named amier and amien(sorry if i spelled your names wrong guys). There really cool guys and some great drifters. There in a team called SL kids and have been drifting together for a while. This was the last drift event they all drifted in. Right now there working on the car trying to get them ready for next year.

Ok the car above is amier's toyota cressida. I'll try and get some update shots on his car. Something to watch out for next year. The next car i'm going to show you is ron. He drifts an s14 with a turbo ka...man i loved his car it was sick. But gone now...wrecked it a while back. I'll post pics on it later.

Ok the next team mate is alex who has a 240 hatch. Also a ka turbo...this car is up and running right now but still working on it.

Sadly i don't have a pic of amiens ride....its an old gs300 with a 2jzgte. Slamed all the way to the ground on some work vsfk. Right now there just trying to foces on the shop last time i saw them. So i'm going to stop by and see if i can get some updates on there rides. I'll most likely do a shop tour of them. Will its late so i'm going to sleep good night.

I got my car back today!!!

Before i got the mr2 i really wanted a 240....or just a really cool FR car to go drifting in. Once i get some more money you'll see what my next car is going to be(not anytime soon sadly)

2009-07-25T00:10:00.001-07:00

My car has been in the shop getting the new clutch put on. While it was there they went and got my axles rebuilt for my car. We ran in to a little problem....we had the wrong inner-axle stub. Witch goes in the the transmission. I had a non lsd inner axle stub going in to an lsd transmission. Anyway i just got the part order and can't wait to pick it up so i can have my car back.

this is what happens when you have to much torque.
