yO everyone! Well things have been slow over here with the resent selling of my s13 i’m left with the dc1 integra which is sadly still sitting in the garage with issues. Is currently gauging interest, but looks like will be going away to a garage to get her fixed.

Found some old pics of her and started playing about with them…

Dori dori you say? Well….lets start from the begining!

The night before the “Team Poverty Spec vs Team Brand Whore” drift day up at crail everyone was up at mine around Sakura doing there thing. Marcus working away fixing the suspension i had kindly bent and snapped due to a wee off i had >_<”, i was away with the cable ties working out how to keep on my bumper and everyone else was sitting on the bucket seats outside drinking away ^__^. After Pizza, cable ties, new suspension bits and putting on a roof rack back to front we called it a night around 12….

So after we headed all to our beds i got a mighty one hour sleep due to my man flu hehe. RING RING alarm goes of at 6.00am, so i get up put tyres in car, get shower and make the calls to people to get up who were coming along. After 7 or 8 calls to a certain Skoda driver i used his space for more drift wheels hehe.

Meeting up at drivers with Mr.TPS (marcus) himself we headed out towards crail, was a nice wee drive and no issues came up. When we arived we were greeted with awesome weather, after getting out the car my girl friend got on some gloves and took out all the drift wheels….awesome pit girl :p!

However after all of this good luck it was a matter of time….marcus went out on his first run fine and showed us all some of the best dori he’s ever got! My first run was some what different with me ending up in a field more than the track but kept going, bringing a new dent to wing and snapping cable ties on the front bumper! Now to the second run, well marcus sadly didn’t get that far due to engine issues and me you ask….Well my turbo became loose lost power and a large knocking sound came from the suspension. After a matter of basicly 2 runs me and marcus’s day ended…

^.^

On with the pics fOO!

Sadly this is where we spent most of the day after walking around and taking pics. After this we went outside crail and the AA came to pick up marcus and take him home while i braved the blowing mani to turbo issue all the way home….OMG what a loud trip it was! Here are the last pics of the day…

*YAWN*…..what an early morning it was for this. So me, Robyn and Robert jumped in the skoda with mock the week, and dodgeball for the dvd player and set off to Knockhill. After a nice wee drive up there we all joined in cleaning the Vrs for the show.

Cheese Burger and coke was needed and mad tyte twinning from a old skool starlet and a pearl white s14 kept me more than happy for the track action! So enough with the chat and on with the pics…

red and greenSeems to of been too long since i last updated Status Unknown’s goings on, so since i’ve got my nikon back i took a few snaps of my car. But first i should update you all of whats been happening with a few of us.

Vish’s v6 mr2 which you will probs know of is going down south to get new clutch and flywheel fitted aswell as a cusco 1.5 lsd, this should see him back on the road on his new bright bawler rims ;) ….pics coming soon.

Roberts skoda has reached new heights……no joke! Due to issues with his last coilovers he is on his second set in a new raised stance which is a shame >_<”.

Me? Well my integra dc1 “runabout” has been doing anything but run about, currently stuck in the garage doing nothing with unknown issues after a number of people don’t know what the problem could be. That brings me to the 200sx….

Sadly the rear end has been damaged due to a dude in work sliding into the back of me. This damaged the rear bumper, quarter, and rear lights…Not to worry while she’s off the road she will be getting treatment to get this fixed and will be looking ten times better than before!

Anyway….on with the photos. Enjoy,

>_<"

In search for what i broke....

Well hey again people! Been a while since my last post now so thought i’d pull my finger out and get update you all on whats happening around here. Well since Akemi-Chan was sold I was looking for my first rear wheel drive car, and after thoughts of an mx5, rx7’s etc i decided that i wanted a 200sx.

So after looking for a while i found one that suited my needs ^__^ and off i went and bought it hehe. Have to say a big thanks to Marcus for taking me to see the car and the help he’s given me and advise alone the way, some dude!!

Anyway me, Vish and Marcus caught up for a photoshoot of the 13’s a wee while back. He’s a few pics from that  night.

Alex’s Fc & Vish’s 180sx

•May 26, 2009 • 2 Comments

Hey again people! Well tonight i have to say was ace, nandos, banter, two import cars and ended off with some dori dori! Vish who was going to be doing a wheels swap had been in touch with Alex (dude with bawler fc rx7!) after Vish ended up basicly selling them and buying his new ride the idea of a wee photoshoot was brought up. Couldn’t turn down the chance of this…

So after burning my face off and Nandos we hit up the multistory near by to get some shots on the go. After being there for only a wee while a wee chap with his blue uniform came up to us saying we weren’t allowed to take pics due to terrorism haha. So after a little longer and a few more shots we moved on to terrorize town. Anyway here are some of the pics i got…

•May 26, 2009 • Leave a Comment

yO peeps, after vish was left on the net by himself he came across an idea for a new car while is mr2 was off the road. So as he resently sold his works which paid more than half towards this new ride, vish was a happy dude!

So after a heavy night for me we ended up heading around 6-7ish in the morning to hit up bath! So after a good six hour drive envolving tonnes of pix, vtec pwning the skoda (lude 2.2 y0!), long hangover and some bawler rides we got there!! Car looked epic….so the money was handed over and off we went. Anyways on with the pix, starting with the trip down…

tvr y0!

bawler f000!

Bet your all wondering what is it eh?…..Well due to me getting tonnes of pix i’ve decided to reveal it in the next post hehe. Sorry for the short but sweet post hehe!

Edc Knockhill 2009

•May 20, 2009 • Leave a Comment

Heya people Iain here again, so the weekend came and everyone was looking forward to the event to hit up Knockhill….the EDC! Been looking foward to this for a while. So after a heavy night on the friday night i ended up with a big hangover on saturday and just could not get to sleep whatsoever. So after a shower at 5am i got to sleep around 5.30am!?!?!

So the morning of the EDC, after 3 hours sleep Robert burst the door open to find me fast asleep. So after some shouting to wake me up i’m up and ready with my nikon and Vish’s hd cam hehe. So went to meet up with the rest of the dudes and make sure everyones ready to head up in a convoy ^__^, off we went with my glass bottle of irn bru to keep me wake along with other energy drinko.

ross's mini ^_^

Anyway after losing the g-unit in his 86 we all managed to get to knockhill and meet up. Weather was amazing, aswell as the sound of horsepower echoing round the track. Off we wondered around with me taking pix as i was going along, have  to say standard of cars there was epic! Enough of the chat and on with the pix i hear you say…ok then haha

another 86!

got smoke?

 

What as fookin ace day this was with smoke, sound and sun! Have to say as events go it’s one of the best i’ve been to in a long while. Can’t wait to get a bit of rwd myself to join the bottom of the ladder at nOOb dorifo status! Anyway have to say was a random but funny event that happened at the EDC. As me and my mates waited for Craig to come out of the toilet we spotted a chap holding a fire extinguisher hiding behind a wall, he was waiting for his mate to come out to spray him….sadly same time his mate was walking out, out came Craig and ended up spraying him! So the chap runs off without a sorry or anything, Craig wasn’t a happy chap with foam allover him. So he grabs the extinguisher and walks through the crowd after him, once he gets up to the chap we see him put it down on the ground. Then boom foamed the chap from head to toe!! HAHA never laughed so much ever.

Anyway after all this we headed for food and Tony Roma’s it was yum yum! Epic cheese burger for myself and montain dew hehe, on the way i got a few pix of the trip back.

g-unit y0!

¬_¬ moi

 

As normal it’s late, i’m tired and i’m going to bed ^___^ so hope you enjoyed the read and pix. Hope to see you again, feel free to leave a comment…

Hey people, well been a while since my last post, miss me? So i have gathered up quite a few pix…So a few weekends back  everyone met up by the Carbeth Inn for some food and banter near the local touge hot spot. After an epic burger and chips i got the nikon out and got my shoot on.

Heres a few pix!

Nardi

Jun'ko Chan f00!

Hatchiiiii!

More recently me, vish and robert hit up Brehead for some pix and video’s which will be coming your way soon ^__^.  The heat of the summers day was epic, got a good amount of pix and some filming done, aswell as some cheeky dori dori on private land…After the hangover from the night before breakfast was a Tony Roma’s! wOOt!

Afterward we headed off with G-unit, Craig and the whole crew for some touge action. Sound of the hatchi with it’s new headwork was epic as it flew by, with the rest following suit. Finaly catching up with them in a local village car park vish left to go to study (boo hiss ><”) and i jumped in 86…started to head off and coming towards a large jump the car flew over, taking me right off my seat and hitting a bit of boot. God dam that hurt!!

Anyways on with the pix!

 Iain-san!! MEEEE

Also for anyone that doesn’t know Akemi is now sold!! After a two build up from a 1.3 to ek9 engined touge machine she has taken a trip down south to her new home, the want for dori could not hold any longer so she had to go. Have to say was sad handing over the keys and seeing her get driven away…but as they say onwards and upwards!

S13 coming soon hehe….

old times

Old times!! Me and Robert after Ek9 engine conversion with on going 5 lug conversion in my garage (this point i should of been on holiday with my misses)….giving up after cut open finger, rust in eyes, no sleep and me stressing out! Parents catch the first shot of a relaxed Iain in weeks with a cider haha….

Good times!

Anyway…as normal i’m again shattered to the max so i’m off to catch some sleep before work tomorrow . Hope you enjoyed the pix and the read, i’ll be back soon!
