PC Mobile Wouldn't surprise me if you two were still using the Internet Explorer add-on to Win95.

Kinda contradictory no? You say you're a one and done guy, but you're sticking with the twins until you go single down the road. Look I'm not knocking you for the type of person you are, the point I was trying to get across is what is your reasoning for reworking the stock harness and making it nice if you're going to tear it back apart to eliminate connectors once you go single. Rework seems contradictory to your "do it once do it right" life motto. Just trying to save you a month on your three year project so you don't end up like Gordo with a fabrication masterpiece you never drive.

Lol what are you on about? Your 'pictures' are just broken link filename.jpg Using PC FWIW

Brian revamped the image uploading interface, now old man Gordo can't properly post a picture. What a time to be alive.

He's currently neck deep in the rabbit hole of overbuilding his stock JZ swap. Normally I would commend this much work, but to know that you're completely redoing your harness with milspec connectors, yet still running factory ECU and twins is kinda strange unless you never plan on going single turbo or standalone. I just foresee you doing this work all over again. Just wrap up what you're doing and work out the kinks as you go lol.

So simple-minded. Learn how to use Google Translate and make Japanese friends you plebs. They love american shit so all you gotta do is be willing to ship shit for them and they'll be willing to ship shit to you.

Spirit Peaks and Parc are cool tracks and worth the drive. Here you drive 3 hours for a skid pad. lol. No excuses though, I'm still going to do what I can to get out and get seat time. I did not build this car to hard park. With that said, check out this article written about my hardparked Cressida: https://www.averagesquad.com/blog/2018/11/19/champagne-papi-2jz-cressida?fbclid=IwAR2ppbuy13CiizK6xQMRGPCavgVuxig-btdudzJJjonhhVdtZPBhrljS4pQ

Marc's ability never ceases to amaze me. The custom oval pipe is so rad. Nice to see you finally update your thread.

Musselman Honda Circuit is a sweet track for drifting and they have open drift days regularly, but it's in Tucson. 😕

Yeah that is one good thing about Wild Horse Pass is the track conditions are really easy on tires. I didn't even kill a pair of tires drifting all day. I just still can't comprehend why most local tracks, close their doors more days of the year than they are open. If there aren't cars on the track, your facility isn't making money. Wild Horse Pass has so many tracks and they only use a portion of a full track for drifting. I don't understand. It's not hard to believe why Bondurant filed for bankruptcy.

Yeah, when people from Washington can't comprehend why people like me in Arizona aren't drifting every weekend and getting so much seat time, this is why. This is the only track that isn't 2.5 hours away and the facility only opens the track 1 day a month maybe. Lines are long, course is short. It's all we got. There's a really cool go cart track that allows drifting, but it's a pretty good drive away which is a reason for not going often. I'll do the most I can.

I had so much fun sliding yesterday! I almost didn't think I was going to be able to drive because I order 2 pairs of tires. The first pair I ordered they shipped the wrong diameter, then the second pair never arrived. I was super bummed, but I said fuck it and just went and bought 4 nankangs from a local llantera tire wholesaler. It ended up not being a bad deal, but now I have more tires than wheels, which I guess isn't a bad problem. Loaded up ready to go. Unloaded my shit and ready to party. Here's a link to me doing the day course. It's short, just three turns, they don't let you manji the first straight. https://www.flickr.com/photos/123773347@N08/31008691027/in/datetaken-public/ I didn't have any friends with me so I didn't get much videos or photos. Sucks, but I still had a lot of fun. I zip-tied my cellphone to my passenger seat in hopes that I could get a video of me running the longer night course, but it really turned out looking like Michael J. Fox filmed it. Shit quality, but you can make out the course. It's like 6 corners and a manji straight. I was in third gear then downshifted to second after the manji. https://www.flickr.com/photos/123773347@N08/31008703247/in/datetaken-public/ While not having more videos and photos sucks, the good thing is the car ran strong and ran very well. There were no issues to report, I drove it to and from the track with no problems. I loved the way it handled and I can see many more drift days in the future, so hopefully I get some coverage one day. Don't hate my driving, I'm still learning. lol

one thing I wish I did was reshape the bellhousing opening for the trans tunnel. It would be nice to have more clearance around that area so that it is easier to get a socket and wrench up above the trans to access the bellhousing bolts.

Finally more progress on this build, but I see you're going deeper into it. Don't fall into the pigeon hole of, "well, while I'm here....I might as well..." Then you have a three year Creesida build you never drove. lol Either way nice work, I hate that fucking bump when I had the stock twins. No issue with single lol.
