first car was a 1984 3rd gen civic hatch, 1500 carby, loved it and fell in love with the shape. so much so that 2nd car was exactly the same, but the top spec i could find at the time, an 86 civic si, goldtop ZC motor

some early shots after i started learning about how to mod a car. this is how old this shit is, these pics were actual printed photos that got scanned in, no digital camera!! musta been around 1997

ImageImage


as u can see i started in the soundoff thing before i went to actual performance, it was the thing to do at the time. here i am at the 1999 4&rotor nationals where i actually won the whole db drags - 150db haha awesome for the time.

Image

so thats where the [LOFREQ] name and plates originated - 'low frequency'... hoho im so clever


anyway fast fwd a few yrs and i kept the sound system, turbo'd the motor, hybrid kit, and so on. managed to get into the 2004 autosalon final battle

Image

Image
Image

loved that car. went from 62wkw to 173wkw stock block, just running turbolink, everyone said it would blow up in 2 weeks, went strong for 4yrs.


got rearended by a ford falcon in 2004 and written off. so i bought a taxi

Image
Image

turned into this

and then this

which managed this

sold in 2009 to a kid in new plymouth who im told stacked it into a bank, carjam still reports the rego is active but car is on exemption. man id love it back.


while the markII was being built i went thru a couple other GX71's - i had another markII bought no wof no reg for $200 as a parts car

Image

but was in too good condition to wreck, so i legalised it and daily'd it, put in old suspension and wheels from my main markII and sold for $2000, nice a-ppreciation.

here's both of em in the back yard
Image


i also got a mint GLXi which, despite the stock 1G-EU and auto, was the meanest cruiser. slammed it on random springs and some 15x8 +0 minilite copies, shit was tough. here both cars were at the FIRST oldschool classic car meet in cornwall park

Image


and then i got the chaser.

Wow looking at all your'ls cars, mine were never modified that much.
Started off in an St185 Celica Gtfour. Just exhaust, suspension, rims, boost tap.
Then a lancer glxi run around hahaha.
Into a Hyundai Excel with fluffy dice hanging from the mirror, missing hub caps n whatnot
Then a Mercedes 230e....(it was just cheap, i didnt even touch the thing, just drove it)
Then the Aristo, lowered, various sets of rims, intake. Parts bought but never installed : Apexi Safc Neo, Hks Boost Gauge, Hks timer/boost controller,
Then an s13 silvia which i had at the same time but then sold but still have the jzs

My first car was a KP60 Starlet. No mods done whatsoever.

Then upgraded to an ST165 Celica GT-Four (was a bit of a jump from the Starlet :D )

Then I became a Uni student and had to downgrade to a few Hondas
Still got a DA8 Vtec Integra sitting on the lawn.

Easily the nicest S15 I've seen in nz tbh. Not too much bling or rice, just right. Helps that Andrew could drive it pretty good too :)
