Exams

Well turkey break is over so its time for exams which means fuck all, really, I dun goof'd all this semester up. Here's the good noose, however. My CRX made the 1600 mile round trip to Brohio and back home but I got no pictures of anything cool because I get down like that.

While I was there I managed to snag 12 pistons and rods, a downpipe, and some other random stuff that will also make it to my build because why not. I looked at hot broads, drank cheap beer, watched some great movies, and only used three full tanks of gas to get there and back. It wasn't a huge success but hey life can't always be so smooth.

Anyways the long awaited rebirth of my Supra shall come soon as it has sucked a million horse dicks not having that giant noise machine to slide around and scare old ladies. I mean seriously that car was fun as balls to drive and I can't wait to have it back. Chopping the springs down this week, as well, because I've always wanted to drive a bouncy castle.

That was about the peak of my break and as we all know, for every up, there is a down, and a great down to my life was as I got back into town around 3:30am on Saturday, my Uncle Donnie passed away. He was such a huge impact on my childhood and I seriously hope I could be half the uncle he was. I love him and I miss him very much and I have decided to dedicate the Supra to him and re-name it "The Don" in his memory. My uncle was a very serious but caring person and I'm going to try my best to incorporate that into this build. Rest in peace Dominic, you were the best uncle anybody could ever ask for.

November brain?

OK, so my friend is a tit for hyping me on "getting me a beetle" for like a month now but now he wants it after I got it home. Jew story bro. On top of that I need one piston and rod for the Supra which is rarer than a Bentley in a trailer park. However my great friends in Ohio have two full sets of six as well as a 3" downpipe for me when I see them over thanksgiving, so if I can hold off until the new year, I could quite possibly turbo this car and still of spent less than $2k on it.

So, good and bad I guess. Gives me even more time in the miserable cold to sort out the engine bay before anything actually goes in it (I.E. replace clutch master cylinder). I did manage to plumb some of the engine bay as well as stick on the last of the trim I'd been dragging ass on putting back on.

Tore down the engine some more (got the crank out). Need to get the allen sockets from my friend so I can take the head off and throw new pistons in it. Also need a new front crank seal as mine is a tad chewed up from something. Anyway that's about all I have to rant about. Happy Sunday.

Greener Grass

Okay guys I've been putting off posting here because I still haven't done a damn thing to the Supra worth mentioning since I put the 7M-GE in it, HOWEVER a challenger has appeared!!


1973 Super Beetle! $Free.99!

Needs an ass of work but it will be a pretty sweet car once it's done.

Anyway the engine for the Supra should be fully assembled ready to go by Sunday and running by next weekend, I expect to blow all the spare rubber I have off of it by the following Monday.

Okay, I lied, I did paint it:


That's all though.

Buttchin

So thanks to the great United States Postal Service, I won't have a running CRX until Monday afternoon. I seriously could of hitch-hiked to Louisiana by this point. Oh well there is a flip-side to every coin and the flip side is the Supra.

I eventually stopped being lazy and grabbed the crank my friends have been bugging me about for probably two months now. Took it to a machine shop and got it polished and cleaned for 30 American dollars. Well I'm happy that it turned out great, pissed because I dicked off about it for two goddamn months. Oh well. Anyway, I started to put the fenders back on because I'm just going to paint it as a whole with a real gun and some single-stage white paint (cheap as fuck). Also white hides flaws so that's also a plus. I'm going to make a paint booth next weekend and paint my car and my friends car in four days.

We will see how that goes over LOL.

Anyway plans for Saturday are as follows:
- Look at cool European cars
- Drift a BMW
- Gloat about it
- Sleep

That's about it, happy Friday and have a great weekend!

HOLY WOW

Okay so not a lot has been done in the way of the fun car in the backyard, and I've also managed to convince my CRX to stop running so that is something I like to call a FUCK YOU.

CRX needs new head bolts since I've reused those probably 40 times in the past 4 years so then engine has about 10psi compression on each cylinder. ARP's ordered and on the way.

Guy in Atlanta got the car shipped to him and I'll be able to pick up the crank Friday. I might skip the Euro Auto Festival this year in order to get the engine together or something together on that car so I can have it running by the 22nd.

GT5 2.0 update tomorrow. This week just started but it feels pretty massive already. All I really need to do is grab that muffler from my mate and get it welded on so I don't wake the dead when I fire it up and do a burnout in my backyard.


That's all for now ladies and gents!

Twist and shout

OK. I got fuck-all done this weekend with the awesome weather and the like. So that's minus points.

Also the guy with the crank probably won't be able to get that to me until the 22nd so that's a bunch of fat assholes.

School also sucks massive amounts of bleeding rat tails, have two papers due and like two tests this week along with some homework due so fuck me.

However if I can get the crank before then I can get my car running sooner so I can flog the shit out of it. I miss that. I end this post with a song.

God Damn Friday.

'Sup lads. How has your week been?

I'm actually in school at the moment, posting this from my iPod thanks to the wifi they have on campus. Should be paying attention but I've better things to not do. Hopefully I don't die before I make it home and get a few hours sleep before getting a haircut then some flag football until I can't move for a little bit. Then maybe if it hasn't started to shit-storm yet I'll finish painting the front end and toss all those fuckers on and maybe get some pictures for all you out there in internet-land.

Piss that reminds me I gotta get painters tape and probably 45 cans of primer (spray paint-job ftw!)


That's all folks!

Stupid Weekend

Okay so it tsunami'd the shithouse all weekend so I didn't get a single thing done on my car, but now I've scrounged together enough money to rebuild the engine so that's nice. Should get some things done to it this weekend hopefully, otherwise it will catch fire due to lack of progress.

However I did go to an amateur drift event and shot some pretty gay footage and it took forever for me to upload it. But here it is:

Long week

Short weekend. Pumped to start putting my engine bay back together and possibly prime the rest of the car. Hopefully some pictures once it's all done up maybe. Anyway here's some car cooler than mine to keep you interested:




Have a great weekend, its Friday, etc.

Random Shuffle

Pointless update, my car is still in shambles and my DD makes me want to cry when I think about how great it once was, HOWEVER, good things happening soon so suck it, must have some good karma from not kicking too many kids in the wedding vegetable when I was in grade school.

I was a closet bully. No homo.

And as the days drove on hunting for a crank, the cloudy skies parted and low and behold; I'm finally confronted with one, in the form of trading my CT26 and some other jank I have that I can't use anyway.


Looks like so long turbo and hello running Supra again.

When the guy gets his car...

...In two weeks...

...Longest two weeks, commence!

Lowes paint

Well, started to rattlecan the Supra piece by piece. Found a sweet deal on white paint ($1.04/can) and it doesn't look like shit and lays down smooth as silk. Lowes FTW! No pictures yet because I haven't done enough shit to the car yet so it's a pictureless update.

Fuck you

If you have ever told somebody you wanted to buy something from them and stop contacting them when a deal was about to be struck, fuck you.



Tell them "I can't buy this," or maybe even "I've changed my mind on these." Otherwise your testes will shrivel and smell like dog poo or your vagina will swell to 400 times its size and become flatulent.

It's in the bible.

First post!

So kids and adults, I pretty much made this blog because all the cool kids do it and I figure some people might be interested in how we do crap in the dirty souf. Probably going to update with a lot of how much my car sucks, how much my friends' cars suck, and how much being a broke ass college student sucks. Anyway my name is John so nice to meet you, my two other close friends are John and Jacob. I drive a MKII Supra, John drives a Z31, and Jake drives a S14 for now. They're all in different stages of disrepair and maybe I'll get a group photo up of the three sliding cows soon.
