This is the reason I got into S-chassis in the first place. It isn't a revolution, but it is something I haven't seen in a while, and something I don't think I'll ever see as long as I live on the west coast.
A few years ago, I wrote a treatise on the direction the 240 world was going; this was not among my expectations. This is ridiculous and outrageous and real. This is something my brother, who's a car guy but has an essentially stock car, had to show his girlfriend (who doesn't have a car) because it was so fucking awesome. This is something that makes your brain buzz with the excitement of possibilities.

It really excites me to see that someone gets the point of what we are doing. It is all about having fun, and no worries. It isnt about having flashy cars, or fitment. Its about being able to push the limits and not having any consequences.
the S14 I am driving was a chassis that one of my buddy's totaled
the car wasn't street worthy, or worth fixing (fixing right)
but was a perfect candidate for having fun.
this was it
strut tower moved back 2 1/2 inches
the only way i could get this into my shop
i pulled what i could, cut and replaced a section of frame rail
used some square tubing to conncet the rad suppor to upper frame rail.
used intrecooler and piping i had laying around and i had a perfect missile car
We filmed this video over 3 days, this car was awesome the entire time.
this was at the end of the weekend
opening scene with my real car
i am currently prepping it for another full season of thrashing and having fun as a practice car so i can keep my comp car fresh
if anyone that enjoys seeing what we do/what i do, check out my FB page and be in the loop of what I am doing professionally and for fun!

Agreed!
