Default sigh... a&j is such an evil place...

everytime i visit something bad happens to me... more specifically, my wallet.

a few weeks back i blinked by accident and ended up with a spoon rad cap.

this week it was worse:



i've seen the devil, and his name is ben/jackie/alan/"fire".... special mention to sun dang and jeremy of seattleimports.com.... i hate you all!

i'm going to go and cut up my debit card into little bits now....

oh yeah i forget especially stay away from drealgsr... his gf is always sending him to the doghouse hahahaha

the brake pads are endless vn (short for some weird spanish name according to Ben the Devil but whatever it's a street pad), with these weird spoon rotors (the argument was that they cost only a little more than stock rotors). stupid pads are dusting like there's no tomorrow but then that's most likely because my wheels are white instead of spoon black (ever wonder why they paint them black? well now i know), damn damn damn... i had warped rotors and one cracked stock pad (how the hell i did that i don't know), and then i got suckered into this...

i better cut my credit card up too... but i need it to buy more stuff from drealgsr if his gf will let me

B-TANG is such a JDM playa

Wondering if it's a good/bad thing I don't live in BC

BTW, VN stands for VITA NUOVA (Italian?).

fuggin bastard!



a long time ago i tried to buy a set of zeal function s coilovers from japan, but they turned out to be in serious need of a rebuild that i couldn't afford... so dee bought them and i ended up with tein ha's instead, he got the zeal's rebuilt, and he won't stop making my life miserable telling me that they are god's gift to the honda world... sigh.

Hey, Skyline's are legal in canada now I don't know why they DON'T release it here (I have a feeling it's because certain people can't turn) but in Japan, they even have a 4 door family skyline. I still like the Lancer Evo more though

Benjamin,

Don't worry I'm in the same boat as you! Let's just say in the next couple of weeks I will indeed be droppin $3,000 US at A&J racing! And it wont even make my car look better, but it dayam sure will make it a helluva lot faster!

I'll call you or e-mail you when I head back to Canada for your photoshoot, look forward to it all!
