Hey guys, I'm from New Zealand and I have this sack of shit V8 soarer that I pretend to drive sometimes. Christ I think I've had it about 5 years now.

It started out all faggoty and auto, super high sea sick inducing and rank wheels.

Then got some JZA80 Bilstein struts, mystery springs and some new wheels.

Single spinner got replaced with a TRD lsd

After a few years of getting creative with revs and smashing it into drive, the auto made way for a W58.

Did some burnouts around cones, basically proved I have no idea how to drive.

Showing the new wheels better, also got creative with the Bilsteins and this is as low as they went.

Then it started running like shit, the kind of shit you get from an uncomfortably hot vindaloo.
I replaced the distributor caps and rotors, sorta went better, bypassed the fuel pump ecu and did way more burnouts, problem solved. I also swapped the front upper arms side to side for more castor, fitted PBM subframe collars, did more burnouts.

Just recently fitted PBM coilovers, although nowhere near stiff enough, it's better than how it was.

Ah onramps, how I loathe thee.

I'm originally from Auckland, but I live in Napier now.
