Got the motor installed. Just have to plug in the harness and double and triple check everything.
 Also scored a really good deal on Kouki aero for the S13.  Need to sell off all my extra stuff laying around then I can order some new stuff for the S13. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Late To The Party By A Whole Generation
SuperD…..what an experience. Since FB2, I haven’t went to a large event to drive, just to spectate. Life has taken priority over the last couple of years. But for this event, I registered out of the blue without any real plans.
Prior to leaving, I was chasing down lots of issues. Fluid leaks, swapping back to the S13 subframe, and overall motor installation things. By the time I loaded up the car for SuperD, my power steering wasn’t working, clutch/transmission wasn’t working, and the car was breaking up under Boost.  Harris and I drove from my work to Memphis this first night then to Chicago the next day. Got to Chicago and got dinner with Simba. After dinner, I picked up Kayla and we crashed for the night. The next day, we headed to Shawano with Josh (Revgasm) and Damon (COB).   Got to the track and unloaded the cars. The winch on the trailer makes loading and unloading easier but a little more time consuming. It’s defiantly safer in my opinion so I’m happy with the install. Started up the car and it would big and die. Found out that the capped vacuum lines on the throttle body were open and causing the issues.  Saturday, I knew I would have to drop the transmission and figure out what was wrong. Harris was the MVP as he not only helped me with my car but also Josh with his car. I tried to bring as many spare parts as I could for this trip which included 4 tie rods, 2 transmissions, 1 S15 Turbo, full gasket set and enough fluids to finish any job.   After getting the car running, I tried to take it out but still having Boost cut out. Kind of just chilled out on Saturday since we thought it was the Maf or coilpacks. Sunday, we check both of those things but they were ok. Top 32 started but drivers were having issues so the ladder wasn’t filling out like they wanted to. Brandon Strong broke his transmission before top 32 so I was told to get my car running just in case I needed to fill the spot. I didn’t get to qualify on Saturday since I was trying to fix issues. Luckily, Brandon got his car running just in time but I also fixed mine. The wastegate vacuum line was the issue so after fixing it, the car ran with no issues. After the competition, I finally got to drive my car with no issues and it felt great! Stock motor with stock power, stock knuckles, and 4.6 diff. It has been 1.5 years since I’ve drifted and it came back like riding a bike.  I got to take Josh, Billy, and Julian out for a ride and I let Julian drive my car so that he could get a feel for the car and develop some knuckles for the R32. Tried to chase down Julian, simba, ilia and Jason but those dudes are fast. Got to tandem with Jason which was great and he tapped him when he was chasing which is cool.  SuperD was a success in my eyes. As Harris said, “I showed up with a paperweight and left with a Ferrari”. The love and support from all my friends continually reminds me why we waste time and money on these cars. Friendship is first, drifting is a bonus.

The car looked great, and I'm glad to hear that you got things sorted in order for you to drive.
I seriously can't wait to see this thing in person! Quote:

Late To The Party By A Whole Generation
Went to wekfest this weekend. A friend of mine signed me up with my email when I thought he was sending me PayPal after asking for my email.
The night before, Mayday Garage (local Houston group) hosts a premeet. It’s always the best thing about wekfest or any other big car show. This year’s premeet was at a new location and the cops shut us down early due to the amount of people. They were starting to tow and issue tickets so I dip out.   Got to the show and staged for Mayday Garage. One of the members asked me to represent them in the show as their “top picks”. I actually got “Nissan Of The Festival” for the show. That was pretty cool and not bad for a wrecked drift car when there were R35’s in the show lol    Drifting this weekend at Club Loose Texas so that will be nice to get better with the SR in the car.

I never knew the history behind your white car! It was pretty rad for him to give it to you after all those years of asking about it.
Also this picture is rad. Quote:

So the weekend after Wekfest was Club Loose Texas in San Antonio. I’ve been trying to get to one of these events since they started but just never worked out until now.
Probably the best driving event I’ve had since before the crash. Defiantly hooked on driving this car and changing nothing.   More videos of actual driving on my Instagram. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So after the Club Loose event, I drove an event at the local Police Academy. They have a small road course for training purposes that is available for the public to rent. I went by myself which was a weird feeling to go drifting alone.
  The next day, we got to drive on a local kart track. There was 4 of us for the whole day and the track was awesome. I’m not sure they will ever let us drive again but it was awesome to have done it one. We shared the track with grip drivers. 10 minute heats, every 10 mins. So grip drivers for 10 mins then we drifted for 10 mins. It was so nice!!   I can link some videos if people are interested in seeing the track. I also blew up my transmission on the last session lol  I swapped in a new trans then went back to Club Loose. Wasn’t really feeling it and drove maybe 15 laps. Packed it up early and went home.  Then we drove Lone Star Drive JZX event. I haven’t seen any pictures from the event of my car but I was t really looking for them anyways. It was cold and wet but the driving was fun. I’m terrible at drifting in the rain so it was a learning experience.  Then I blew up another transmission of the way to breakfast the next morning. The reason why transmissions keep exploding is because the RB20 Speed Sensor falls out of the SR trans and leaks all the oil out. I’m an idiot but I have a solution. Swapping in a new transmission this weekend so I can drive the car around. I’m participating in a demo at Circuits Of The Americas in February. People pay to get a ride in my car. Super Lap Battle will be going on as well so I’m more excited about that than drifting. Maybe I’ll get to take the R32 on the circuit! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
