C'est la vie

Well some things happened and I reasoned to myself that it was best I part ways with my beloved CRX. It was easily the hardest decision in my life to date.


I cried hard for about 15 minutes and haven't looked back since. I spent almost no time without a project and I got my dream car, a car I have literally wanted for 10 years now, a 1987 Nissan 200SX. I drove a million hours into the mountains of North Carolina to buy her and I love it more and more each day, this car is stupid fun, and people are always looking at it. I love it.


But there is no way I could just DD and hard-park it, I bought this car to drift! And drift I did.


This car makes me so happy I don't even regret selling my first love. For real.

So remember when I said

That I would just have to replace little shit on the CRX until it popped? I didn't account for human error clearly. I adjusted the timing, broke a piston somewheres and now it blows oil out of the breather. Rad. Essentially the plan is to fix/sell/buy another Supra that I can hoon in like a child.

I bought a new car though, a new-ish (2010) Toyota Matrix. So I'm still in the Toyota game even though I'm not. It's pretty chill I'd say. If anything it has gobs more torque but the downside is it feels like driving a monster truck compared to the Honda so that kind of sucks. No worries I should have the CRX back up sometime in March (maybe sooner) to drive it some and then see where the world takes me from there.
