This is my ride. Daily driver and all. She was designed with the idea of drifting in mind. One of my friends found her for sale in the newspaper in April of '04. I went and checked her out and immediately fell in love. At that time, I had no concept of what the car was, as per being a Silvia, nor all the possibilities. The most I knew about cars and such was Initial D, which I had been watching since '01.

I just did the basic maintenance and basic driving. I drove to SoCal in August of '04 without problems... surprisingly after finding out later how much my engine bay was messed up. The person before me did some really ghetto wiring in an attempt to fix it up after they had a fire in the engine bay. The problems that could have arisen were a lot and I'm thankful that nothing did. A bit later, I needed something to occupy my mind so I decided to fix her up. That's when the madness started.
