The toaster went on the dyno yesterday; after the intake was installed I got 84whp and 88lb/tq. Not bad, I am very happy with the intake, considering I gained 6hp, and 10lb/tq. I also installed the rear sway bar, and front strut tower bar. I am very pleased with the improvement in the overall handling [...]
Here are some pictures of the xB. They aren’t that great and it needed a bath very badly but it’s better than nothing.
Well I’ve had my 2006 xB sense last Friday and I am quite pleased. It is a change from my old daily driver, a 2001 Dodge Dakota, but a good change. I was impressed with the good mileage; I did lots of town driving, driving up to and around Olympia, and finally drove to Vancouver [...]
Well I have a new vehicle. A 2006 Scion xB. I still have my truck and my car this is just another addition to my family of cars. I will post some pictures later on after I was the monster. I went to Vancouver, WA yesterday to visit my sister and got back this morning [...]
Well Saturday when Caleb and I went north to put the wheels on the Silvia we merged onto the highway in the middle of what appeared to be a Euro Meet. A few Porsche 911 Turbo’s, several Audi’s, and a few VW’s trying to keep up with the pack. Enjoy the photos.
Well my wheels for the Silvia finally showed up. I got tires mounted on the fronts and got them on the car this weekend. Thanks to Ray from Enjuku Racing for hooking me up with such awesome wheels. Tires for the rear are on order and I should have them sometime this week and get [...]
Well the guys down at Enjuku Racing hooked me up once again. I ordered some new wheels from Greddy for the s14 Silvia. Check out the picture below for what they look like.
Well it’s been a while sense I’ve posted updates on the Silvia so here is what’s been going on. The whole car is together. I got the seats a few weeks back, and last week the Greddy E-Manage finally showed up. This week we are wiring everything, and putting the roll-cage in. I should have [...]
Well today was a car hunting expedition with my father. He currently has a 2004 Volvo XC-90 SUV and is looking to get something else. We started off the day at the BMW dealer. What assholes. They didn’t even come outside. When they let us take the X5 on a test drive they wouldn’t let [...]
Well apparently this week was a busy one for the Silvia. Big breaks installed on the front, and engine dropped in. Lots more to come this week. Last night I went down to Portland and bought 2 Sparco Rev seats with sliders for 500 bucks! Talk about a steal, these seats go for $629 each [...]
The s14 Silvia Drift Car build up is going quite nicely. Here are some pictures from a few weeks back. Current progress sense these pictures include; big brake upgrade, lowered, wheels, front body panels on, rear bumper install, and finally engine installed. Items in the next month or so include roll cage, and interior. Then [...]
I’ve done a few updates to the Firefox Guide, so if you haven’t checked it out and left a comment please do so. School is keeping me quite busy that directly is hindering my ability to post and work on more sections of the site. And finally…the Silvia is coming along quite nicely. I should [...]
Wow this weekend went fast. I don’t want to go to class tomorrow morning. But I think it will be a good week…I had two tests last week so hopefully this week will be test free.
Saturday I went up north to EOPerformance and did a little bit of work on my Silvia (race car). I [...]
