More randomness I guess

Cool randomness

So, just finding some sweet stuff to post while surfin' tonight.

J-VIP = Japanese VIP style

So, this style is getting more interesting to me. The more I see it the more I like it. Instead of the chrome wheels though, I prefer the "mean" look with some dark wheels. Check these out I found with a quick good search.

Nickrods Nissan Skyline (OK, its an Infinity G35 Sedan)

Nice pick up cuz. This is a little late. Nickrod has been cruising this Skyline for a few months now. Nice color choice too. Just needs some wheels and a drop and you'll be stylin'. Gotta go for the VIP look man! Anyway, here's the "before" pics.

Toyota's 4 dr rwd Corolla the way it was supposed to be

So, Speedhunters is at it again. This time with a cool post of a red 4 door Corolla drifting and just plain looking kewl!

DunnowhatthehellIwantosis!!!

From my cousin Ben. Classic me and my crazy car hobby...
"A Scion xB eh? Now I have officially heard it all from you Chris! =) You suffer from a disorder commonly referred to in the medical community as Dunnowhatthehelliwantosis. Take great comfort in this prognosis cousin, because those with this rare disease are among the most entertaining individuals to associate with. In fact 4 out of 5 Dunnowhatthehelliwantosis patients agree that they are happy with their unstable desires, and agree that this truly is the only means of maximizing enjoyment across all spectra of life. You see, they are never bored, because each day they find something completely different to be entertained by. And they invest a lot of time into learning, not within one discipline, but across disciplines. In fact these are our societies innovators, having inherited the ability to see the extraordinary in the oddities of life and thus gaining the ability to apply oddities across fields.

Shine on you crazy diamond!!! Shine on!"

Test drivin' a 1980 Toyota Celica GT-shweet

So, found a 1980 Toyota Celica GT 5 speed for sale on ksl.com for $3k. It said it had a new clutch, new alternator, fuel pump, 1 year old paint job and momo steering wheel. I emailed the guy. I figured, hey, I love me some rear wheel drive 4 cylinder "vintage" japanese car goodness. Let's go see what these cars are all about. So, I took it for a spin. I gotta say, its pretty slow, but they are supposed to get 34mpg on the highway. They weigh about 2550lbs, have a 2.2L sohc 4 cylinder making 96hp and 122tq. It has a live rear axle, rear drums, front discs. The body is in great shape. It has a newish paint job. It has a Harley Davidson muffler (ha ha) and centerline wheels with 195/70/14 tires. Oh, it has a sunroof and those rear window louvers that were ever so popular. I think this car has potential. The front suspension was soft. What? It's 29 years old man! ;) If it had a proper drop and some nice 15 or 16x8 and 9 inch wheels with some semi stretched tires and clean up the interior, it would be killer. I bet the guy would take $1500-$2000. He just got a ticket because it has been parked at the end of his street. He's really willing to sell...
Check those pics.
