Prodigy will become famous soon enough
next one...


1- Part of the new ignition setup I'm building with some reputable parts... DO it Right the first time, no half ass HKS twin bullshit stuff!!! I'm overly excited to get this part done so I can tune/turn up the boost from 10psi!!!!

2- after a Friend did some minor body work, right before I dipped the attention whore red (base coats) then onto the desired color Side note, got the Replica MS hood from a friend, it was black, changed it to Red with a few (6?) heavy coats of Plasti dip

3- 4 Layers of Red Plasti dip. You can see how the black is fading away into the red... Now onto the Killer Color choice (I think at least) Much more uniform color/look now...

4- Slight interruption of pictures to give you the Damaged LM's brought to a different color of Glory... I wanted Gray with blue speckles & got the opposite of that, Loved the Color enough to Make it work (you'll see)

5- Another shot of them the day I got them back from Powder Coating.

1- @ Car show (1000+ cars there) they garnished some attention, The VR FD beside mine was DD at this point as was mine...

2- If you look carefully in the background you'll see another FD, He trailered it up from Spokane, Very nice/clean LHD car.

3- Better shot showing off the Color of the Rims/Dip

4- Sakebomb Fire bottle Holder

5- Fresh Air intake I built for the Twins, Now It needs to be rebuilt for the EFR.

Last Picture... I think it fits us pretty good...


Considering How much I've spent just this year, and still might be. Ohlin's anyone? that picture hits home... lol

I also just scored a new to me clutch, twin disc made by Cabonectics... so that will help put the power down & hopefully keep things from breaking...

I have a Mounting Bracket from Rice on the Way for the M&W CDI COP coil setup that will be amazing to have on the car, looking forward to that...

One of the biggest pet peeves of mine is the off color engine bay/door jams, so I might pull the car partially apart one set of days off that I'm feeling kind of stupid/energetic and paint them more of a matching color then VR.

Looking forward to surprising new 580hp GT-R's on the hi-way this year

That's all for right now.

You should start a website like Cash for Gold except for Canadian coinage since you cannot even spend them here you can give next to nothing in return for them sending it to you...


Edit: Lots of ways to exchange coinage never mind. I have coinage to exchange!
