Good looking out, NuGen Auto!

Totally wrote riptide but autocorrect put flip side. LOL!

Finally received my "new" FI Non resonated exhaust yesterday. I'll be swapping it out this morning and I'm pretty excited to hear it teamed up with the FI long tube headers.

I'm also working with Avant Garde Wheels for the next year. I'm excited to be one of the first cars rolling on the new AG form/function directional series wheels.

Riptide67 · 09-16-2014, 09:05 PM

Continuing on with things I made a few small purchases to get ready for the final two shows I'll be attending in 2014.

Carbon Fiber Roof antenna cover

Evo-R
CF crown meter cover
CF manual shifter bezel
CF gauge pods

Nissan
Fairlady Z emblem (for strut tower bar)

And 3 SMD 5050 LED panels in purple

Next events:
DRIFTCON After Dark
(Selected into top 80 car show)

#Fest2014
(Selected as 1/40 late model cars)

Sold my zenclosure box with the JL10W3v3 over the weekend. Slowly getting prepared to tear the trunk apart again to reconfigure things. I have been brainstorming and coming up with ideas to give things a bit of a more "custom" flair. I've still got one Jl10w3v3 to utilize.

Wow, this is truly sweet looking. Badass whip dude.

Thanks TWM_shift!

Got the news today from Yuya at Avant Garde that my wheels are in final assembly and will be shipping out this week. Just in time for #fest2014.

Just a few small recent purchases:
-Blox lug nuts (Anodized Purple)
-Evo-R Carbon Fiber Door switch covers

Riptide67 · 10-20-2014, 07:14 PM

Wheels and tires have arrived! Just need my lug nuts and I'll be set!

DatsunFTW · 10-23-2014, 12:10 PM

Just as anxious as you must be

Sent from my Android 'cause I'm too lazy to open the computer.

Riptide67 · 10-26-2014, 11:06 PM

Took a 2 hour road trip on Friday to have the tires stretched and the new wheels balanced. Saturday afternoon I got around to installing them.

Oooo emmmm geeee! Melted my mind. Fitment is perfect and I am considering opening a deli. I'm slicing meat for sandwiches in the rear. It just beautiful and took the car to a new level.

I've got some shitty quality Galaxy S5 pics, lol. But, I'll be doing two photoshoots next weekend and a fitment show. The amazing pics will be coming!
