My "money pit"

[Deanthemachine]

in late 07 I bought my 89 hatch

it was such a dog





after driving for while I realized what I wanted to do to it. I wanted to build on it and drift it. so it started.



installed the coils and painted it. threw in a welded diff as well



needed something to hold me in when getting some sick sideways action.



then threw on a kit and painted it.



then I added some clear corners and smashed my aero on the freeway



I finally realized that silvia front on hatches is whack and went back to pop ups with uras front



then came five lug with zx brakes and mb battles





new tie rods by tein after I bent one



and the car went off to paint

it came back just in time for zomgbbq



clutch finally gave out so I went for the extreme



ACT six puck unsprung.

added kouki tales and my straight pipe and I was off to the socal-drift touge run







hit up my first event with slide assasins at irwindale speedway and made it on motormavens



then hit up dais academy at el toro as well













that pretty much is it for now
