Thanks dude! No pictures of the coupe, I had other things on my mind at the time.

Here is some really cool chase-car footage I got at the last event!

No major updates, but I have gotten a few small things done. I received my bash bar, Street Faction gets an A+ on that! Great fitment and quality welding. Got my front bumper on, and installed some blue Raybrig headlights. The front end looks so much better now! Also put some Kouki rear valances on. She's getting there!

I also got the [awesome] opportunity to do a demonstration! What a blast! I am very grateful for this opportunity, and would like to thank Ben Williams for inviting me along. I sure hope there are more of these in my future!

I can't believe Ben won the spectator drags in his dually.. You're going to be at the next DV, right? I haven't seen the hatch in person yet. I still need to get a feel for those 326 coils!

Sleepy_Steve · 10-03-2014, 01:53 PM

Hey... I know that car!!

nismo_bill · 11-02-2014, 08:49 AM

Dumb question. but i dont see it anywhere. Are you running 17/18 staggered witht he XT-7's?

awesome read btw. cant wait to see where you take the hatch!

Ramonesfreak2010 · 11-04-2014, 12:56 PM

17 all around.

Free bump for a good friend.

OBEEWON · 11-04-2014, 01:48 PM

That coupe was really good looking. But I am partial to hatches. Confident it will eclipse the coupe.

Haha that was halarious! Ben got that truck rolling too! I'll have to sort a passenger seat out and give some ride-a-longs next year. Something else always seems to come up.

Thanks OB. I'm trying!

My hatch.

wolfpack · 11-05-2014, 08:35 PM

So... after a long two months, a very exciting package showed up!

Inside were two TE37V!!!

Around this time, I also managed to snag some Origin canards in the classifieds.

Shortly after, I packed everything up and headed out to the last Drift Valley event of the year. This would be my first time back to Drift Valley since the crash. It felt great to be back, and the hatch was very well-recieved.

The course was a bit tricky, and took some time to get used to. But I played around with the tire pressure a bit and seemed to get the car dialed in pretty well.

All-in-all it was a good day, and a great finish to the Drift Valley season. It was a goal of mine to make all five Drift Valley events this year and somehow I was able to, despite all the technical difficulties I encountered.

But I still had a f*@#ing blast! I can't wait to see what next season will be like at these events.

bmaddock · 11-06-2014, 06:35 AM

Great seeing you out there man, car looked great! Just want to let you know I look at your build thread for inspiration to keep pushing and step my car and driving up to the next level. I hope to make some more (if not all) events this next season.

OBEEWON · 11-06-2014, 08:50 AM

Got the chance to take the car out this past weekend. Had a blast ripping around a new track, and met some cool dudes. Car ran great all day until the Chase Bays coilpack #1 connector broke, another problem from them.

It was getting late anyways, so I just packed it up. All-in-all it was a great day!

PG BOOSTED · 11-15-2014, 06:11 AM

Wow! What a story of 2 awesome builds done by son and father. its just simply awesome.

Nice build and good luck next season.

Thanks dude! It took a bit... but my father really started to catch on! Now he loves these cars almost as much as I do! We make a great team!

We actually picked up a project for him over the weekend...

Stay tuned for more on that! We have some cool plans for the winter.

PoorMans180SX · 11-17-2014, 09:28 PM

The car looks awesome as always, and looks like you're having a great time out there!

maces13 · 11-18-2014, 07:04 AM

It definitely is! My dad got it from a local who took great care of it, which was one of the main reasons he jumped on it! Thanks Gilberto!

So my father and I both had birthday's coming up (November 30 and December 1)... When my mother asked what we would like to do for our birthday's, it didn't take much thinking to come to an agreement. We got on the phone with the owner of the local track, and booked the track for the weekend of our birthday's!!! We were beyond excited! Not only for a bad-ass birthday party, but to be hosting our first event as well! I quickly got in touch with all of my closest friends and told them to start getting their cars ready!!!

Of course... It decided to snow the week of the event!

We were really bummed, and figured the event would be called off. I decided to press on, and keep prepping the cars anyway. Worst come to worst, everything would be ready for the next time I need it. My father called up the owner of the track the day before the event to see how things were looking. He was not very optimistic, but said he would ride over to the track and give us a call. Minutes felt like hours as we awaited the call back. Finally the phone rang, and we were informed that although everything around the track was still covered in snow, the track itself had all melted off and would be ready to go!

We were not sure if the event would go on, so we were a bit behind schedule! We rushed to get everything packed up and ready. But come 6 a.m. Saturday morning, we were all loaded up and ready to go!

We quickly set-up as the drivers started to roll in. By the time everyone had arrived, everything was set up and we were ready to rock! What would ensue, would be some of the most fun I have ever had at a track in my entire life!

There were even some neat little snacks to go along with all the hot chocolate and coffee that was available!

Everything went smooth, and we had a full day of awesome drifting (with no major issues)! It was surely an experience I will always remember. I couldn't have asked for a better way to spend my birthday. Big thanks to my parents for all the time and work they put in to making this happen!

The 2014 drifting season is now officially over for me. This was surely the most eventful season I have had yet. Despite the blown motor or the crashed car, my driving has improved tremendously and that's what keeps me coming back for more!!!

Winter is here, and I finally have some time to go back over my chassis and get everything just right! Stay tuned!

Ratpack_Chad · 12-19-2014, 12:00 AM

This whole thread was such an awesome read, both cars are super inspirational. Cant wait to see more!

Happy New Year everyone!

2014 was a blast, and I'm going to try and make 2015 even better! I have spent some time cleaning up the hellacious mess I made in my shop throughout the season.

Organizing what I need, and getting rid of what I don't need. It's looking much better already! I have made a lot of space and it will be much easier to work now.

Hopefully you will get to see a bit more of my S14 Kouki this year! I bought it at auction a while back, it has a bit of front end damage but is extremely clean otherwise. I have not had much time to work on it due to how hectic last season was... But with the season finally over, I found some time to put a bit of work in. Expect to see more of this car in 2015!

There are a few things I would like to tighten up on the hatch over the winter, and things are going well so far! Stay tuned!

Salvarath · 01-01-2015, 04:46 PM

Wolfpack it might be time to change the title from coupe build to hatch build. lol

BoostinIX · 01-02-2015, 06:21 AM

Hit me up on text/fb bud. I wanna see the new chassis x2 :P Plus you haven't seen my setup lol

Ramonesfreak2010 · 01-02-2015, 06:29 AM

Make space for my future shell.

Gonna make moves!
