i think the reason he bashed on your car's paint is cuz its a little worn down/chipped from you drifting it so much, other than that i thought it was a clean job (you cant keep it lookin showroom forever if your driving it that hard)

exactly, it's a drift car... here's some pretty pics... if you're into show cars...





so how u like the paint there... i could've kept it that nice if it was a garage queen.... but who wants a garage queen? i built the car to drive it.... i remember the first chip i got on it... i was soo pissed... but then i reminded myself it was a drift car, and that **** happens.... who gives a fK... i thought he was commenting about the color... which i thought was REALLY funny, cuz i've had over 20 people ask me for the paint code... hahahahaha so one kid doesn't like the color ..oh damn.. hahahaha i love the color... i was gonna go with a two tone red/black... but that's kinda lame... i wanted it to stand out... like henry's pink fc... i've seen a couple other green fc's after i had already painted it.... but no green like i have... to each their own though.... i'm happy with how my car came out... and honestly, that's all that really matters.

boostinmys5, those are some nice drifting vids.

can u tell us what mods from engine to suspension you've done to your car, if you don't mind?

and is that paint job british racing green..? proly mixed w/ a pearl of some sort? it looks good. kinda looks like a 97 M edition miata though (not BRG)




alvaro, who's white 10ae is that in the tree? that's a waste of a clean FC

J.T.P.

iTrader: (13)

dO luck, ask me at an meet, i'll be happy to show u the mods on my car..

the color is actually a variation of a 01 model car... in the sunlight you can see that it's not a BRG... it actually has a metallic flake.. i got the basic color idea from koguchi's green s13...

haha, that road is crazy in the night, especially when your FC has poor lightning.

jilongie

nice car there boostingmys5....
anyways, i just dropped in to say couple of things, and make things
a little bit more clear.

I am the one who is organizing this meet, and these people are all my
friends and families. Socalrotor, geargraber, even the guy who was doing the 8's

anyways, just to make sure how things are around here, that was totally
unorganized, and unauthorized act. I do not encourage that at a meet
with lots of people and cars, where people care about them being hurt.

I appologize for what has happened, i will MAKE SURE THAT NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN!, unless some other noob decides to come and do it (if i don't know them and i can't do too much), but i will definately tell him to cut it out.

I have respect for all of the drifters, boostingmys5, u have nice car and i bet u are a nice driver also. I have respect for all of rx owners.

my point is, what u dont like(doing figure 8's in meet lots) and other dangerous stuff will not happen again. but please stop fighting with each other on the forum.
anyways, i hope u can come more, cuz i will gurantee that won't happen again, so its safe for u to enjoy. He is also sorry about it, so that's good thing.

anyways, thanks for comming to the meet again, and i also appologize again.
my name is james btw, im this asian guy, if u'd like to talk to me more further about this topic at the meet, u can reach me easily. I'm easily spotted.

anyways, happy new year all rxowners and hope to see u guys this friday!

Couple of things... all that had to be said was that it was dumb/unsafe with all the cars around, and that was it. But you had to comment on driving skill and flame him. He happens to be a close friend and we talk daily. You took your shots and I took mine. Both were uncalled for (and I aplogize for the paint comment). You paint is all I had to say anything about, because that is all I have seen of your car. For the record my Fc is a POS that I paid 800 bucks for in the condition seen on the cruise. It is far from a AE ( thanks for your iggnorant input, king of the wrecking crew) it is spray painted which is VERY obvious if your not a retard. So to end it all here, plan to see me with sisco on sat @ ricky and ronnies so we can BS and let it be water under the bridge! But do luck, your the ****** king of bad drivers so shut the **** up, for the record, my master cylinder took a crap, and I lost most of my front brakes. Hope to see ya this sat boosted...............

geargrabber

james thinks he is the h.n.i.c.

jilongie

lol what???
anyways, thanks for doing that steve, u are a good guy.
and yeah, boostingmys5, there, he apologized on his own will,
so keep it cool now. It really is a nice meet, and i know both of u (socal,boosting)
would get along, soon as we start to talkto each other(look at me)

anyways, sorry for the all the drama, i'm not on anybody's side. Everyone is
cool in my book. Things happen once or twice you know??

all i know is that this is a damn good meet, with damn cool people and cars.
i love everyone that comes to this meet, and i love everyones car long as its rotary. (don't expect me to love a honda!)

anyways, i will be there on sat, and the regular autobacs meet is on !!! (friday@8pm)

see everyone there, look for asian guy named james if u want to ask something

J.T.P.

iTrader: (13)

head niggey in charge...wooOOOO ahhahaaa
yeah no problems... water under the bridge... far far downstream.... i'll be sure to roll my honda.... hahha j/k i don't own no stinkin honda..

not sure if i'll make the meets this weekend.... going to fontucky on saturday for DD30 in the morning, so i might be able to make it a little later if i don't stay all day... so autobacs is a weekly thing or what? i've never really been into meets, just recently giving them a try...

jilongie

yeah, autobacs meet is EVERY FRIDAY at 8pm.
i'm the one who has started it, and keep running it.
it's for all Rotary cars of any kind. So far the meet has been very pleasant
and interesting. Some of us go canyon racing after wards, but u 'd have to
ask me in person for details. Anyways, i hope to see u again soon, i'd sure
like to meet u in good way, and personally, not over the forum like this.
have fun on saturday, drive safe!

J.T.P.

iTrader: (13)

rotoryretard

Heres what he really said:

"Well, for starters, I am probably too late to but I do apologize for acting the way I did. I did take it out of the regular.
Now for the guy in the green car: the reason I drift in the parking lot was because I go to this meet every week end, and James seemed to be cool with it. He never said nothing, as a matter fact: last meet we had all pulled away from that parking lot fast, went around to a mexican place and all drifted on beach blvd on the u turn. Now about you drifting: cool! I am into it too. You drift one way I do another. I didn't do 8's but like I said I do apologize for you new people there. Of course it was shock too see me do this, it was not a nice welcome to you guys. The guy in the green car, I remember seeing your car at the Torrance meet and talking to you about your rollbar. Well the same guy that did your roll bar has 3 of our car over there getting done and mine is next."

Taking Her Sideways: Your posts are always good and informative, but hard to read!! So Cisco: You teach me to drift, i help you with your postings. We got a deal?

well we swapped in another walbro today just to see if it would run so i could go tommorow...well guess what...problem is more complicated than that.

apparantly, the wires from the engine harness attached to one of my primary injectors lost the insulation at the base, leaving exposed wire. these two wires at one point or another touched (explaining the random rough operation). well eventually this fryed the injector, f@#%ed up my HKS racing spark plugs, and i guess killed the fuel pump too.

so now instead of just a fuel pump, i need new engine harness ($800), new set of HKS spark plugs ($140), and the rebuilding/replacing of my primary injectors (hopefully the secondaries are okay, but its still gonna cost anywhere from $200-500)...all this added onto the $350 i already paid for the damn R34 fuel pump.

well, there goes all the money i've been saving for a new set of wheels (was supposed to be my hannukah present)

If my work schedule isnt gay, ill show up in the ghetto beater infinity and burn that thing out, but i miss my car and am pissed at it at the same time.

the only good thing came out of this is that i got a compression test for free, and that is in the clear! (i dont know how my motor has survived all this bullshit

rotoryretard

if you need some help with the harness or any further diagnostics, just pm me. i have a LOT of experiance working with electronics of all kinds. i'm just a retard when i comes to the actual rotory engine (hence the name rotoryretard).
