Thanks for reading!


Couple of updates... I got my Takata Harness today.. Actually it was shipped to my paint and body guy vs. to my home... and I could could of gotten it 2 week earlier..




Takata came up with new design... and color. Hope it will take some time for people to fake this..




And testing on my bride seats..







And refinished my pedals and added discontinued widefoot, heal toe pedal.

Correction.. I just realized I said the black Takatas are FIA approved but I actually meant to say, "These are NOT FIA approved". 



I'm debating about the interior and test fit the Takata Harness on the Spirit R Recaros.


Let me know what you prefer?









Also, got my VS-XX refinished/powder coated and put new Toyo T1-Sport tires. I've heard great things about these and can't wait to test them out.



**They are not going on this 3 rotor project car**

COOL! Thanks man!



more updates...


Past couple of days, I decided to strip off my spare RZ hub assemblies and fix up the rotor back plates and such.






Fronts fixed and degreased... Test fitted the new DBA rotors.. Shaved some metals so DBA rotors can freely spin. 




Rears fixed and degreased




My good friend Bryan from BNR Supercars is going to let me use his cabinet to blast the rust and such off so I can get the prettied up today. 


Also, I received some goodies from Turbonetics.


Their GT-K 1050!!!!

I'm currently putting the car together for SEMA and I can't upload all the stuff that's going on.. 


I'll make this short and share 2-3 pics.. including the render done by amazing artist and designer, Greg Thompson. He did an amazing job rendering the car with few pics I sent him and list of goodies I was going to put on. Just amazing work!! Since its so close to SEMA, I'll share the render to give you guys an idea what it will look like (exterior).


Hint of couple of parts..







I'll update the full car on my way to SEMA..

Unfortunately, I didn't bring my DSLR so I don't have that great of a pics. I'll try to post some as days progress.


But here is one from last night.. after SEMA management called me and asked to move my 'grey Honda'.

Thanks Rich!! I guess some assumes and forget that we been around for a while and not a complete morons Either case, I have more important things to worry about


Also, something good happened from SEMA... They included a picture of my engine bay (not quite completed) in one of the articles they wrote.. This means a lot since I follow Speedhunters and was checking on their site while I was at SEMA..
