Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve posted here. My car’s totally changed in the past few months.

Here’s some visuals of what’s transpired since I last posted (about the FYC cruise, if I’m not mistaken):

Then I sold the wheels.

I got new FLCA’s.

The car now looks like this:

The new wheel spec is 18×10 ET-6 18×12 ET-7, with Nankang NS-II in 225/40 and 255/35, respectively. The car now has a straight pipe exhaust setup, terminated with 3″ Magnaflow tips (the car still has all of the emissions control equipment — we just got rid of all the old piping, resonators, and mufflers. The car sounds bossy now).

Recently, though, I picked up a set of S13 Zeal Super Functions. Those will be getting dropped off at Endless/Zeal USA for a rebuild and revalve. I’m thinking of going 22/18 kg/mm spring rates for this iteration. Hopefully Ganesh at Endless/Zeal gets back to me soon about what length spring I should be running. I still need S14 ABS spindles/hubs, S14 rear upper pillowball mounts, and brakes — I can either bore out the S14 spindles for the stock Y33 brakes, or I can do S14/Z32 brakes. I’ve been seriously considering just going BBK, but I still need to do some measuring of the front wheel caliper clearance. If I got a BBK, I’d like to do a 6-piston, 380mm setup in the front, so inner diameter clearance on the Stitches might be an issue. Anyway, I have the fitment template in hand, but I haven’t had the time to take the wheel off and actually measure the damn clearance.

One of my new year’s resolutions is to post here more often. Let’s see if I can stick to that goal.

Happy new year!
