Whats up,

I haven't been on here in a bit but just starting my new build and thought I would post up some pics, I had a 1992 (Nov build) JZX90 Chaser that I've owned since late 2007. I had it as a daily driver for a while, then in 2009 I started to drift in DMCC, and 2011 I picked up Clarion as a title sponsor and it ended up looking like this at the begining of the season.



more pics and info here http://omgdrift.com/?p=6902



I ended up 5th overall out of 30 some drivers in Western Canada in DMCC West Pro Division!

Made a magazine add for Clarion



But then Sept 25th this year I went to a funday open track day at Race City in Calgary Alberta and on my 3rd or 4th run of the day I spun and got smoked by a GTO at about 120km/h



Pulled the motor out of my blue car



Cut the rest of my Blue car up saving all the suspension, angle mods, diff, interior, cage, etc!!



Found a new JZX90 Chaser listed locally for cheap, but it's a Tourer S, non turbo auto with a 1jz-ge,



Then now what I've done is stripped out the interior



Took the front end off, and getting ready to pull the 1JZ-GE out and toss it in the garbage. The GTO next to it is a ex BF Goodrich Drift car from DMCC East that belongs to my roommate, hes building it for a GT Race series up here.



Here's how it sits as of Monday Nov 28, 2011. All fluids drained ready for the motor to come out.



Future plans:
-New Formula D Spec rollcage
-Swap my 1JZ-GTE with HKS GT3037S turbo into it
-Swap rear subframe from my old car in with my 2way and suspension/brakes
-Swap front suspension including modified steering knuckles, tie rods, supra 4piston brakes etc
-New Vertex Aero kit is on order from Vertex-USA right now
-New wheels, but I have not decided what yet, either gonna get a ton of XXR's or spend some real money on some Weds
-Full Clarion Vinyl wrap, new design for 2012
-Swap over my old interior with all safety gear
-LOTS MORE!!!!!!

This thing has gotten alot more serious then when you last updated! I remember when you were a camera man haha.
Loving the build it up, it's sad about the crash but I'm sure you will make the new shell bigger and better

[shawley]

Got lots of work done in the last 2 days

Pulled the stock N/A 1JZ out Sunday on my day off





And today after work swapped rear subframes, so put the one from from my blue car in that has my 2way diff, SerialNine solid mount subframe bushings, Weld diff bushings, new brakes with Project Mu e-brake shoes, and my coilovers
