On the prowl for a badass level3 or beyond Supercharger kit, if you know anyone selling please refer them to me or pass me their info.

Also some updates: I got an original Pandem Kit, with partial sponsorship directly from Japan.
and Airlift kit is being installed now.. I should post some updated pics soon.

I will when some work is done, I am also re-lipping the AME wheels I bent one drifting lol.. so they will be even wider.

as everything that I have had done to the car, it always takes 5 x longer than expected. Airlift sent the wrong kit even though we specified M3 E93 they sent the non m3.. and now said when I shipped it back to them that the parts were scratched from shipping, so I might be stuck with a non M3 kit I will put up for sale soon.

after I get the new rear lips I ill start mocking up the pandem kit.. I might just sell it and go for another custom metal widebody though. stay tuned!

They sent me the wrong kit.. smh they sent the non M3 kit and now its dinged from handling and sitting around the shop and they wont accept exchange, so Im trying to figure out what to do.. means cars in shop for a lot longer..

Might have a non m3 e93 air lift strut kit for sale soon. unless I can find a way to make this one work, someone knowledgeable mentioned there is only 1 or 2 mounting parts that are different but Airlfit doesn't want people to know this so I am patiently waiting.

and yes, I actually am building my Ordens that originally were on the car to 19x13 and 19x15.5
but for now I bent a rear AME rim and they dont have 9" lips in plans for any time soon, so going up to 10" lips making it 15.5" wide also.

look what's back : bigger and better than before!
these are now officially 16" wide!
as no 9" lips were available for nearly a year I just got the 10" lips and said fuck it.. got Hankook ventus evo2 325/30/19 but the test mounting today left a huge gap on the inner barrel side. so no bueno.. now I need to order some 335 or 345-30 for these. I'm still keeping the current widebody with these wheels so needs to be stretched..
the Ordens I'll post next will be installed when I get the new wider body mods done most likely.


more news: finally got the correct Airlift kit delivered to the shop. the bad news is they are backed up due to an overhyped pandemic, have you guys heard of it? lol jk...
so yeah I have to wait a week or so to get them installed. cant wait to get a new shoot done once I get it back.

and the Ordens, the look awkward on camera because of the flat face and deep ass dish... but look sick a few steps back and on the car. just testing out some color hardware bolts disnt like the rainbow pattern so decided to do rear wheels in blue and fronts in pink for now.

updates and teaser

So I am doing a thing.....

I am going to be picking up this 1300hp give or take, 2Jz from Forrest Wang shop Get Nuts Lab in Vegas.

It's a 3.4l Stroker 2JZ with 1050 whp.
I am buying it for my S14 build to try to complete it but at the same time I am having actually more thoughts of swapping the motor and doing the S65 in the s14 and the 2j in the M3 widebody..
Still all thoughts but the purchase is happening. and at the same time I am in talks with A.A for their new experimental Level-4 C38-R new Supercharger kit that hasn't hit the mass market yet. I might ship him the car to install and tune it.

So many decisions in this coming month. also the Ordens finally got rebuilt. I got new hardware for them and also ordered 326power stud conversion with extended lug nuts.

The car is in final stages of stance adjustment at the shop after all the delays with the wrong suspension being sent to me, once I get it back in a few days I'll start testing out fitment with the ordens.


almost forgot: Also got a new Carbon Vented hood coming!

I definitely need to do some updates!

I got side tracked, the SC companies I was trying to get info from weren't responding, Active was the only one but them being in Florida and they only would do th SC kit that I wanted if it was in house............ so I temporarily put the engine work for the M3 on hold
And as I was calculating how much it would cost me to finish up the S14 like I really wanted I realized it would be a stupid ass investment that wwouldnt be worth 1/3rd of the amount spent on it, so I started thinking about other chassis that I could buy and build up that held value and possibly increased in value with time......


So, I bought an Mk4 Supra instead, It already had a widebody, which of course I will make wider(widebody everything!!!), and now I am building a 3.4L stroker 1100hp engine for it.

before you ask, no, I am not getting rid of the M3, will continue to work on her slowly. Now that I have 2 fun cars I can afford to take them apart one at a time and still have the other to drive.
Will try to post up a ton of pics and fun stuff that's happened over my time away.

The Supra is with me with the stock motor while the stroker engine is being assembled in Utah.

UPDATES

So Covid happened, I ordered a real multistation gym for the house, I wasnt sure how logn gym would be closed, Fitness is a huge thing for me so I went ahead and Ordered a full gym for the house, Ill show more pics of the rest of the equip if anyone is interested.



I also got this thing for a daily driver before covid happened




The Ordens I had custom built are insane!
I cant wait to be able to run them soon, but lots of body work will be needed for that, just because of the meaty tires I want to run.




Car looks super high with these on,



I also ordered a 3rd set of fatties, one of my favorite designs also.

So like I mentioned earlier, I had ordered an MK4 Supra, I found a clean one through 2jz motorsports in Utah, and had them start building me a3.4L stroker kit and custom turbo setup, my goal is over 1k whp but very streetable with lots of low end torque. Basically not a lag monster.

Not sure if you guys can notice but the Widebody looks a lil goofy, I knew they didn't know what they were doing when the installed it, but I am Mr widebody everything so I wasn't worried about it.




First day after being dropped off :


Within a day of receiving it, I had bags installed.
Took her to a meet without the rear flares. the kit was installed super flat against the stock body so any hard acceleration caused it to squat and hit the tires.
Ill definitely need to make my own widebody.

Definitley need some flares for the time being.






So I ordered some clinched flares, and they def work for the time being. I just needed something to cover the tire gap when i drove to the shops. I send her back up to Utah to get the new engine in 3 weeks so these work well for now and actually compliment the black and white theme

I defineteley need to Re Tub the rears, as the fender sits on the tire as we speak, and I want to be able to park it lower in the future.

I'm not sure if I ever talked about my passion for rescuing dogs, Ill post some of them soon, but wanted to show Pollo first, he has been my best friend in the last 3 years, he was being put down for biting his previous owner and I saved him a few mins before it happened, because hes so massive and needs so much attention hes been a huge part and super involved with everything I did in the last 2-3 years..









I would take him everywhere with me so he had some attention, I couldn't leave him together with my other male rescues since he was so dominant, and the other have some aggression issues too.

He was addicted to eating anyting he could find, his favorite was socks, underwear or gloves, specially gardening gloves the leather kind, he was a ninja and would sneak into places even though he was gated in a section of my house.

He had a horrible intestinal blockage last year and barely pulled thru the surgery. cost me near 10k and the emotional toll was insance with his recovery and fear of it happening again anytime.
After that I took even better care of him and made his area super safe and child proof.
this year, somehow he was able to break into my garage one day and eat a pair of leather gardening gloves again and got super sick, had another massive blockage another huge surgery but the damage was massive it happened at the site of the previous injury with the old scar tissue tearing again and we had to put him down since they were unable to fix the tears to his stomach and intestines.
This hit me super hard, I lost my mamma pittie 3 months ago from a bad infection to her uterus but she was 14 so I was sort of ready for it to happen.

Because of all the emotions involved with his first scare, I was super hurt that I let it happen again to him. I took it to heart that he was my responsibility and this happened. Although I also know I did sooo much to keep him safe and healthy and give him a good life.

Couple shots of him getting ready for the surgery, I had a super weird feeling that day although I am usually always positive and think it'll work out, I knew I had to get some last few pictures with him just in case......



And after I had to get a picture with his huge paws because it was my favorite thing about him.




its been 3 weeks now and it still hurts every day.

If you guys want to see more of my other rescue dogs, I had 9 of them, or more of the gym let me know.

So this is where everything stands now, I paused the work on the M3 at leats I paused the spending while the supra is getting built.

Random shots, mandatory gas station pics

Roided out vs Skinny


This widebody turned out to be a work of art!
I definitely need to get or make a new diffuser though, this ones looking kinda cheap to me now.
