SPRING CLEANING : in the ice

It would be off to say the car hasnt had a clean going by the fact its had several baths due to serious rain fall over the previous weeks.. however, clean soapy water was something a far.

Today Kyle popped round with the DC2, we decided to give our imports a little bit of care and attention through the up coming winter colds.. nothing too epic, only a minor wash and shine..

As per – nothing majour.. only 50 odd days till Japan comes around……. e p i c !

WHAT AM I PAYING YOU FOR?

THATS RIGHT! GET BACK IN LINE!

Over the weekend just past of madness, poker, drinking, bar room brawling, DJ Mehdi Concert’s, more drinking we managed to fit in some time to get some last minute work done to our dream machines.. with winter coming right around the corner.. and the terrible floods as of.. this one day of sunshine and some what of warmth.. was taken full advantage of.

The s15’s brakes were in savage need of a refurb – After getting 2x front kits thanks to Dan @ DBpower we set to work on getting them apart and working like new again – thanks to non other than the TK himself.. it was done in no time and it feels better than ever.

FMIC came off for a general inspection on the hose’s and clamps – Due to 2 pervious failures with the pipe I wanted to ensure it was now going to be of no more issues in the future.. all taken down, dusted, cleaned and sorted correctly! Job done.. last thing on the list? Stick some nice new all the way from Yokohama… custom made carbon fibre Canards for the EVOIII of TK San.

This EVO just got spec’d up with some nice new engine toys – full details on JDMtas.com – She’s putting out around 300hp now and bag loads of toque!

ITS A HOVERCRAFT.. not submarine

Last night didnt go to plan. Some serious down pour had caused the roads to be in a zone of their own.

On route into the deen last night I came across what can only be described as a River / Lake. Entering at around 40-45mph I managed to destroy the front URAS Aero and rear perfectly! The damage was epic!

Swinging for the hazard button and my phone I ran out to venture through the shin deep water and started to wade through grabbing as much parts of the Monkey Magic kit as I could! Shortly after an Impreza decided he had 4 wheel drive and NOTHING COULD STOP HIM!.. fail. He broke down due engine problems.. then as I was venturing back through the water an on coming car caught my eye.. not due to some real nice bumpers, or fancy lights.. but at the sheer speed! Entering the water at around 60-70mph he must of made a nice smelly mess in his driver seat.. twat.

I turned around to find a tsunami heading my way! Ducking for cover I could do little but await my fait.. Now soaked from head to toe.. phone soaking.. aero dead.. new Osiris Bronx’s destroyed… wasnt going to well. After letting the water drain from my phone I called up Gav and got the International Rescue Service on route.. Gav turned up with light in hand and I begun to cable tie the aero back on to get my wet ass home.

I woke up to..

rain

Im currently working through many photo’s of the damage to file a complaint against the council for due lack of care of the road conditions while severe flooding was happening. Really ponder why im spending so much on road tax a year.. when I could be spending the money on a boat or something?

FAIL!

USED AND ABUSED : RPS13

When Gav turned up at my door asking me to fix his rear aero I didnt think it would be much of a challenge.. until, all the parts showed up in a bag..

I did best I could, 3 Packets of cable tie’s later.. here were the results..

as per really

KEN B.. keep walking

Im so sick and tired of Ken Block – Im fed up of seeing thread after thread of 4 wheel drive fail ass skidding!  Every man and their dog buying DC’s because of the dude.. then he release’s his own shoe! .. fair play its his company, but dayum!

So finally I decided to go about getting a set of Sneeks to walk all over the Ken Block DC’s and all these other fail spec DC’s out on the market now! Time to hit up the ghetto of the bronx!

Kickzoo sent me out the South’s instead of the Bronx so decided to post me up some Osiris socks in the with box.. epic win! Check out www.kickzoo.com for some real nice sneeks!

DO A SKID! – Crail in HD.. kinda

DO A SKID! Made this Video up late last night in Windows Movie Maker. My computer eventually gave up the goat and stopped me from seeing what I wanted to see.. So hence the reason for the ending.

Footage thanks to Mr. Fudi and Shouts to Jay for lending us the £70 Ebay HD Cam for the days antics! A Real Gent! Had alot of fun out there! Cant wait till next time!
