Hey guys! she is currently my daily! we have had a few skidpan day's and a couple of night speeds! (14.3 was my best run with a car full of shit and incorrectly setup Blitz EBC lol) I have kind of done this backwards and should have started my thread when i brought her! so I thought better late than never! I will be using her for a couple of the big show's coming up in the north island later this year/next year but she will get mostly used for drifting & hopefully i can still use her to get the milk and bread!
our journey started in Early December last year (2014)



I brought her off Trademe from a Guy down in Christchurch, me and my brother flew down from Auckland and drove her back the same day! she had a few things done to her the major being a manual conversion, the Vertex kit was looking sad and beaten and the paint needed a ton of attention! but everything installed was Blitz or Greddy/ good quality by the previous owner/s.
I gave her a good clean, added some different wheels (Rota RKR's 17x9.5 -20p), Xplod Touchscreen DVD player, 10" Slimline kicker, Xplod 1000w amp, LS400 4pots, Torsen diff, Blitz SBC-ID (EBC), Ally rad + Shrouds + Twin fans & a shitty knock off OMP wheel! I managed to accomplish quite alot considering I had to start my build on the road out the front of my brothers house while I finished painting our new home!
(this was the spot i was changing calipers, spilling diff oil, swearing loudly... you get the idea ;D )



Literally the day before Ardmore showdown a guy I know from the "drift scene" posted his 3 piece polished Work Equips on his FB page for sale, within an hour i was driving to the tyre shop with them to make sure i had them on for Ardmore!
Which resulted in this.....




The last round of mod's from the weekend just gone ;D I just love the feel of a good woody


Next up will be roll cage and hopefully I can install these last few things i have in the shed! I am very seriously considering wisefab front and rear & ackerman adj kit as a full set of Adjustable arms are ridiculously priced

I have a premium indoor spot at Automania coming up in a few weeks time! so if you see me around come say hi!
