So this happened. The Evo will be on the next Super Street cover. 2nd cover in 7 years. I’ll post the Import Tuner cover later. Big thanks to Johnathan Wong and Joey Lee And Matthew Jones for making this happen.
I’m really stoked. It pays to stick with your project. And NO we will not be parting the Evo out after it’s 2nd cover. LOL!
My buddy Albert posted this up. Holy throwback. Liberal lip was never on when I daily drove this. I used to drive this thing 80 + miles a day for work. I smashed into lots of tire gators on the 605 in this. LOL! One smash up I actually had to replace the the whole bumper. I learned to drive stick in this car. I cut my chops with this car. Learned and failed a ton with this car. It’s still around but in pretty bad shape. Maybe someday I can buy it back and return it to it’s former early 2000′s glory. That would rule.
What you know about Midor Green CE’s 10 + years ago ? The trill shit I did to score that C-West carbon hood and scoop.. LOL!
Sorry. I still got nothing. Thanks everyone for buying something from the store. I hope shipping is going smoothly. Now that I am not in charge of it I worry all the time about it.
Have a thumbs up weekend !
No posts because no life. LOL! nothing going on. I have had a few setbacks with the aero so thats on hold right now. The suspension setup is working great. The KW Club sports are simply amazing. Hoping to get together with my mechanic soon and go over all the new suspension bits to see if anything is shaking itself loose. Other than that I’m just dreaming of some nice brakes. Thats not gonna happen anytime soon though.
Happy Sunday. I gotta get back to work.
Pre Del Taco Run pic. LOL!
Hey Everyone,
The new Temporary JDMEGO store is up. Stocked to the TITS!!!
Thank you everyone for sticking by me and buying something here and there.
Go peep it out. We brought back some oldies but goodies.
Thanks again for the support guys !
Gotta love the Studie X Good Smile Racing GT 3000 BMW Z4. Graphics are amazing. Looks like they added a race bike also now. Very cool.
Some updates hopefully coming soon on the FR-S build. Just gotta score the photos from my mechanic friend. He took pics of the KW Club sport suspension install. Hopefully by the end of the week. I’ll have some thing up.
Beep ! Beep ! uck this blog ! Sorry guys been crazy fucking busy. I have a few things coming for the FR-S though so I will shoot the installs. Making some changes in the suspension setup. Lets just give KW a big “THANK YOU” for some stuff they are hooking me up on. More on that soon.
Enjoy your Tuesday.
I need this in my life.
Marvin came and grabbed the car again today to help with some not so normal installs. lets get right to the goods.
Todays installs consisted of Cusco Engine mounts. After driving the car tonight this made a significant difference in how the feels. There is a little more vibration. Nothing I’m not used to though since the Evo also has upgraded engine mounts.
And installed.
The new Cusco carbon strut bar also went in. I was wrong about the brake stopper not working with LHD cars. It worked perfect. Color me dumb. As you can see this is probably how my engine bay is gonna stay. Nothing fancy. Might add a Toda Pulley kit though soon.
Brake stopper.
Here is the Cusco expanded Diff cover and Diff brace which I didn’t have pics of before. The Diff brace comes REALLY close to the rear sway bar. Be careful.
Cusco Diff brace.
Cusco Diff cover. Holy grail for me LOL!
This how they work together.
Replacing the diff cover is a fucking chore.
Installed.
So thats that. Marvin did an awesome job as usual. Were actually gonna recheck everything next weekend and make sure nothing has come loose. Lots has been done this month on the car. I’m really happy with the Cusco and Whiteline stuff. Early next month the car is going in to Evasive to get the WORK Wheels on. I just purchased Advan Neova tires. The only tire I have used for 7+ years besides AD08′s on my White Evo 8 ooooppsss….. delete that I used Michelin P2′s on my R34 GTR. Anyway, Yeah… I love Advan Neova tires even if they cost a fucking G. Do shit right the first time. Alignment is also in my future as soon as the wheels go on. Time to start thinking about brake upgrades and selling my family to afford some. LOL!
Thanks for checking shit out.
