Enkei RP03 wheels on my RPS13

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2011

Musical wheels time. But let me take a minute to enjoy that my 180sx was rolling on some Enkei RP03 wheels! The RP03′s look nice on the car but some 57d’s or S2′s would look so nice on the car. *Hint*Hint*

My white S13 Hatch is ALIVE!

Wednesday, January 12th, 2011

I love my white S13 hatch drift car a.k.a. Michelle or PrettyS13. So, it saddens me that she has been sitting in the driveway for the last 2 months collecting dirt and rain. Plus, I’ve been wanting to drive her around. Finally, I was able to change the flat tire on Michelle. Thanks RayBabes for buying and mounting the NEW Dunlop tire! And, I changed the tire myself. *Patting my lazy self on the back*

So, I took Michelle on a joy ride to warm up the rusted rotors & brake pads. From RPV to LA just to go to the Sanrio store then I took the PV mountain road home. :)

Next, I need to get the tire rods end changed since my Dmax tie rod ends I didn’t even drift on or drive for more than 500 miles decided to lock up frozen. And, get an alignment, motor oil change, differential oil change and maybe a tune up? I think the last time I got a differential oil change was 3 years ago… when Jason and Ray installed my Tomei LSD. Haha Oh, and swap over the matte white Gram Lights 57D’s that were bought for this car BUT I am running it on my daily black S14. Holy, that’s a lot of work and musical wheels. I am so lazy.

626 Ladies Drift Aesthetics

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

626 Drift held the 1st ever Ladies Drift Aesthetics on May 2nd 2010 & I was stoked to attend the event. Kat finally came out of her shell & brought out her brown GT-R colored 180SX. Got to finally briefly meet “Vanessa Lam” my long lost family member, so coincidental that she’s into cars & has my last name too. Glad to see a bunch of girl drifters out driving together for a fun filled day without drama. I didn’t realize that their were so many girl drifters out there they actually go out to track days & have really nice drift cars. Too bad I didn’t get to meet all of the girls, it would have been nice to make some new girl drifter friends, next time I guess. Maybe we can just all meet up & have dinner like a girl drifters meet-up in 626 area? We can call it the “626 girl drifters meet-up.” LOL! Thanks to Ray, Denise, Kat, Jason, Charlie, Johnson and the rest of the 626 staff for such an epic event!

Btw, here are the nominal amount of photos I took. I apologize if I didn’t take a photo of you, I was too focused on drifting @ the event. And, please don’t mind that I am trying to take artistic angle type photos. I am in such dire need of a fish-eye lens *hint* *hint*

A HOSE can ruin your Day

Friday, March 26th, 2010

Yup, a hose like this can ruin your day. As I mentioned in an earlier post, my car was leaking a puddle of coolant all B/C of this hose. This hose had a very little hole, which wanted to have it’s green period, as I kept calling it. Also, like the notepad that Ray wrote what parts to buy to fix my 180SX!

Btw, thanks to Ray & Kenny for fixing my car… I can go drifting again this weekend, YAY!!!
