Story about my Car :
2006 - Dad purchased the car for me when I was 16 (but being the slack I was at the time, I was too lazy to get my license in time) So he had a little fun with the car. Tuned it up, upgraded suspension, chipped ecu (I believe, I`m not 100% sure) Car was in flawless condition.
2007 - Finally got my License, but didn't have any interests in Lexus' at the time, so I got a job and bought my first car by myself!
1995 Integra GS-R
Me & My Moms Car :P
Built that integra from the ground up, then it gets stolen (figures
)
2010 - Pick up an E36 318is and swapped an M3 motor in there, didn't do too much to it besides lighting. Then the clutch blew and parted out the car :P
2012 - At this time already, I had loaned my sister the car since 2007. When I had gotten the car back, bumper was falling off, scratches and dents EVERYWHERE (women
) and apparently, the motor has been seized. I have no clue what happened, she took it to a mechanic and they claimed that the motor has hydro locked and would need to spend $5000 for a new motor & replacement. (yeah right)
The car has been sitting in our driveway for the longest time and I decide to take on the old love into a new project. Here is how it sits now (I towed it to my work) and I`m picking up a used 1UZ-FE in about a week or two then doing some heart surgery !
After that, routine maintenance and make sure the car is running great. When all is well, then comes the suspension! (hint : nothing a little air can't fix 
)
