More Recaros

Another reason why I didnt drive the Skyline much during lockdown was because it had no seats for a few months. (The Soarer stole them in the last blog entry)What everyone was doing during lockdown was watch facebook market place and the price of Silvias and GTRs go up. These Recaros came up and luckily

Seato Swapo

Last track day with the Soarer i discovered the stock seat may look sporty but in fact they are not.Sure they have fancy pump action lumber support like a 90s Air Jordan pump shoe, but it’s not enough.

Creature comforts

A few things to make the Mark X better Tuyet missed the reverse sensors on her Lexus. Camera isnt enough apparently

Epoxy Floor

Always hated the oil stained concrete the previous owners old fords left behind (and mostly me). Time to do something about it.

No more Light FM

All import owners favourite radio station is Light FM 89.9. Why? because the Japanese only use frequencies between 70 and 90 and the only station in Melbourne that broadcasts between those frequencies is Light FM. Hallelujah!!

eVentful Day

At Classic Japan, two guys approached me saying that they had the rear qtr window vents to the Soarer. We arranged a day for me to pick them up and wooooo!

ICE Part.2

Picking up where I left part 1. With all that stereo and no receiver, we need a solution! Although headunits these days are pretty good now and use your smartphone as a host. The long term goal is to have a system that is similar to a modern car with integrated ICE and Engine statistics.

Retro modding

Been meaning to do this for ages for the garage Big W always has sales on canvas prints, so after one late night I started uploading images to their site.

Belated Presents – Recaros

Don’t you love when you win a auction off Yahoo Japan and forget about it. Checked my Import Monster Order the other day and noticed it was available for collecting! ^_^

Dash swapping

When i mean dash swap i mean the WHOLE dash.
