..

Finally fitted the new seat GOOD on the rails.
The other Bride was a bit larger.
At first I sat almost ON the steering wheel.
Now it's able to go wayyy back so that I barely reach the clutch pedal.
Perfect cruising mode!
Need to fix those damn rear fenders soon!!!






Went skateboarding today.
I don't even remember the last time I went boarding.
2 years ago?? Maybe 3 years ago...I don't know..haha.

Was great, need to do more of that!

Also I need a new deck aswell..

Cool levins.

Saw this site on Matej's blog.

Featured a lot of Levin's that reminded me of mine.

Looks so good. Europe take notes!

I hate solid rear axles.

Tried a 18x9,5 on the corolla for fun.





16's really is the largest you should go on a AE86.

Painted the lip, again. That was needed..haha.
And mounted it a bit better/straighter. Looks good now!



But I really hate the solid axle on these cars. I want adjustable rear camber!!


Came across this s14 on pistonheads.com.






Looks good, just needs some extra details here and there.
I think I'm going to build something like this next!
Only with less hp.(that one got a td-06 400hp..blablabla) I would keep the nice stock engine bay. Just an intercooler and maybe a shiny strut bar.
Interior would be: Bride, nardi, halfcage, and probably some gauges and a dvd player.
Some vertex and r33 wheels on the outside..really basic.

I want a new car sooooooooooooo bad!!



Also...ordered 111 stickers!
That's going to be a LARGE package. :D

Red is better

I fell in love with Bride seats ever since I saw the red zeta 2 in Lindsay's old 1-via.

Unfortunate these seats are stupid rare over here.

I found my black zeta2 by coincidence a year ago. Bought it from an older guy that imported an FD3S, but didn't fit the seat..haha.

And a while ago a buddy of mine(thanks Noud!) said that his friend had just imported a Supra and was selling his red zeta2. Wow..just what I always wanted!!

Unfortunate I didn't have the cash at the time.

But I've been saving for a while, and although I said to myself not to blow cash on stupid things...........I asked my buddy if the seat was still available.


Luckily enough the seat was still there....and I bought it right away..haha.
I think I m one of those impulse buyers when it comes to cool things..:S

Lucky!!

I got back home today and saw that everything was still covered in snow.

Yeah!!

Went inside for a quick snack, called some friends and got ready to hit some spots.

Snow drifting is hilarious... sooooo goood!

Only problem was the ride height.

I had to get out at least 10 times to put the front lip back on.
And then, once I stopped I couldn't move because I was stuck in the snow..haha.

I'm raising the front tomorrow just for this occasion!






Vid next week.....................maybe.

Vacation is over..

and I wake up to this....





Worst timing ever!!! I had to go back to Maastricht for school.
No time to play with the car.



So I just played in the snow by myself :P







Find the hachi:








Also went and bought a tire pump for my bike, will do some snow riding on the fixie tomorrow! Will probably break something..haha.

Looks cool thought, check this:

Looks familiar??

Instead of a hachi this nice FC decided to park in front of the shop and take some pics.

I love this car. I would only lower it just a bit to tuck the tires. Perfect!


Home made pizza

Yummy!
