Lazy people can be annoying

I picked up the bodykit the other day. Turned out not to be the promised Uras-like kit and I found it when I got home. The people at the shop were rather weird and strange and I didn't feel like spending a second more than necessary. Only thing I can think of is that the seller was too lazy to take pictures of his own kit, instead he browsed for some pictures on the internet that looked pretty much alike...

Anyway, it's a V-Speed kit by Extreme Dimensions, I have no idea which "jdm-tyte!" bodykit it ought to represent, all I know is that I like it. Fell in love with it when I saw Willy driving behind me in his S13, he's got a V-Speed bumper as well.

All-in-all it's not such a bad thing that I didn't buy a Uras-kit as I like this one just as much.

This is how the front bumper looks like on Willy's S13:

(lower it, Wil!)

Santa was early

Its been quite some time since my last entry and a lot things happened, short sum up;
- New windscreen
- "New" roof (a million thanks go out to Willy who fixed my roof so properly)
- New wheels came in
- Wangan Warriors meeting in Nijmegen was a huge success
- New bodykit

First things first
The Wangan Warriors meeting in Nijmegen was a huge success, over 65, 70 cars showed up. I haven't taken any pictures (which I regret) but have a look at the Wangan Warriors homepage and get an idea of how we rocked the place!

Next, I've got my new windscreen in and Willy has made my roof look good again. He thinks it still needs some work but I'm more than happy with how it is right now, thanks so much mate!

New Wheels!

They were delivered seperately as they couldn't fit 2 in a box which apparently is the standard procedure. Condition? Immaculate! Some of my friends didn't believe me when I said they were second hand and I was, and still am, pretty amazed by how good they look!

Thank you RB Motorsports, if you are ever to read this.

They are 4 lug!

Had them around for a week when John came over to check them out. He made me take the hub caps off when we discovered they were 4 lug, hahah! It didn't say so on the website where I bought them so I didn't even bother to have a look. We put them on right away and this is how it looks:

I'm so glad I bought them, they look really good and I can't wait to have them on. They stick out a good 8 centimetres, 8.5 to be precise. Will definitely be needing wiiiiide fenders and that made me think about the looks. A stock rear bumper with 50mm widefenders and 12J wheels sticking out of the side doesn't look good at all, luckily I came across an ad on the dutch sx forum. A guy was selling his Uras immitation body kit (front, side, rear) for a bargain. Will be picking that up on wednesday.

The kit (only got a front bumper pic)

That's it for now, check back later for any updates.

Peace!

Wangan Warriors will take over the world!

Wangan Warriors organised another meeting that is due at the end of the month!
It is going to be big, we will be expecting around 40 to 50 Japanese cars and a good ambiance. Feel like joining? Go to the Wangan Warriors website and add yourself to the list!

Check back later for pictures and updates, hope to see you there!

Life's good

Kay sold his blue touge monster the other day and bought something completely different. It's stylish, classy, quick for its class and above all, veeeeery luxurious.

I spoiled myself as well. I've been looking for a nice set of wheels for my S13 for ages. I came across these a month ago and it was love at first sight. Decided to buy them last Saturday:

Australia is awesome!

My car is in the garage still, windscreen is still broken, the roof is still dented but I did manage to get a bonnet off of my mate. Bonnet is rather shit though, the clear coat is coming off at quite some spots so I've pretty much decided to put stickers on the entire bonnet. Not quite sure if I'm going to include the pop-up lights as well.
We'll see when it will be back on the streets, all in time.

In the meanwhile, enjoy this song made by a group of Aussies.

Windscreen pwnage

My car's windscreen decided to stretch its legs today... while I was doing 120 km/h on the motorway.
This is how it looked like right after it happened:



Got some things sorted right after I got home, thanks to a towing company.
Took the bonnet off:



This is what the roof looks like:



Crack in the windscreen:



Decided to take my bumper off as well. Wanted to re-locate the oil cooler for quite some time and I can combine this with putting these locks on which allow you to take the entire front bumper off in a matter of seconds.



What happens now?

- Kay and William will be coming over to repair the roof as much as possible on friday.
- Bought a burgundy red bonnet from Daniel and I got a pair of hinges from Joep.
- I'm insured against any windscreen damage so I'll be having that fixed some time soon as well, I hope.
- I have to re-paint my roof after its lost (most of) its dents.

Peace!
