- Thread starter Road Pirate
- Start date
Did you end up coming down for the weekend? How was the drive?
Very bad time, since the car hasn't had an alignment yet and no wipers haha, it was sketchy but I made it home.
So I ended up going to a season opener drift event over the weekend. It was pretty cool, but a lot of s**t talking. I really hate events like that...it was a practice event so basically just get out there and learn - yet I hear so many people talking s**t on the sidelines. Starting to really dislike the drifting scene in CO..
Either way, here's a few pics, then my buddy Slava's BRZ on Regas. Random pic but I love his car lol
After the event
Saw so many cars headed up I 25 yesterday while we were driving all over damnation looking at cars.
Still havent found anything worth buying.
We headed up yesterday at 5 am. Roads were great. Gonna head back today after looking at a couple more cars

Lets get a brewski next time youre in town, except this time come to the springs damnit! I hate denver haha
got my ES subframe bushings in and ordered all my suspension arms so I can get the subframe ready for the swap and finally get rid of this HICAS crap. But before then, since I'm sick of working in a cold dark garage, I decided to get some work done. Put in a few new wall outlets along my garage on their own circuit, and today we're installing some new lighting. Next comes insulation, drywall and a layer of fresh paint! Pretty excited to finally take on this project lol.

Great build! Keep up the good work 
Ugh im dreading doing home upgrades...
Thanks!Great build! Keep up the good work
I was too but usually it's always for the best! Over the week I did my lighting upgrades, new wall outlets etc. Going to be buying all my drywall/insulation this coming paycheck. Blah
I love this car! Always forget to comment but nice work!
Thanks dudes!
Nothing much going on here, just been racking in the hours at work and playing some PC games haha.
Subframe swap will hopefully happen next weekend, as I have the complete non hicas subframe, new ES bushings, and all new suspension arms to throw on.

That be the plan sir! Nothing competitive though, just to have a little fun.
So before throwing it back on jackstands and tearing it apart...I had to drive around and snap some shots real quick. Here's just a few...the lighting was harsh so it was tough getting good shots.
Looks good! I say drive it all summer then tear down!
It's only going to be down for maybe a week tops
What's happening: Getting the HICAS subframe out, non-HICAS subframe in. New ES bushings for the subframe, all new traction rods, toe rods, RUCA's and tension rods. ABS delete and rear coilover rebuild. I bought the non-ABS booster, BMC and all brake lines awhile back, just need to do those.
Then the car goes in for an alignment, and I'll drive it all summer!
