I'll translate later story of this action

I checked out your homepage, and wow! You are very dedicated and involved. Nice to have you in the forums and hope to see more.

i swear i'll translate whole story)) you'd like it

Google
is pretty good when it comes to translating web pages, so we get the idea, but fell free to share all you want.

My first car was VAZ(Russian crap),it had something like rally suspension,lightweight wheels,audi 100 seats,focal acoustic and playstation 2.I thought,it was too boring and decided to swap 1jz-gte)))))



My second car was Mitsubishi galant(base of eclipse).I rode on it about 60 thousands miles.




Than my family bought Hyundai Tucson and galant became useless.


I sold it and buy Eclipse.It was nice GST in awful condition.It cost me 4700$.There was rust everywhere,broken springs,dead engine & turbo.Somehow this shit was driven to my hometown.And i began to rebuild it.

Car was an incredible crap.Engine died in a month.Rust was everywhere.Suspension was in an extremly bad condition.I was full of desperation,but i didn't give up.I rent a garage and rebuilt engine,suspension and electronics.Parts were aftermarket from local shops(extremely low quality).I didn't know what to do with a body and assembled how it was
.
Later my neighbour from garages agreed to weld(repair) eclipse's body.I moved to other garage to disassemble car and my friend moved to my garage to swap v8))

We became to meet in garages with friends.And the director of parking started to conflict this us.I was tired of this and when my new friend repaired eclipse body we rent new bigger garage and moved on to make a roll cage.We also begun to take ours friend's car for repair.I decided to earn some money and built a normal car))


to be continued..

First my goal was to rebuild engine and gearbox with original parts.But later i decided to buy some not hardcore tuning parts too.When i bought everything i needed than washed dirty parts at carwash service and became to assemble.I assembled engine block(64 crank+forged Mahle) and stock SPZT box.After this i began to assemble head.Sometimes later i broke up with my garage friend which didn't make me promised rollcage and became to work alone.Later i decided that FWD sucks and decided to find AWD swap kit.I found it in Moscow also in St.Peterburg i bought Garret 35gtx with DNP exhaust manifold and fp cams 272/272. I with my friend sat in TUcson and went to Russia..

Your white car looks clean as hell

When i came back from Russia i decided to open normal carservice.Couple month later i bought one more Eclipse in Europe.I cooperated with owner of online aftermarket parts shop.We found good place,bought lot of tools,cleaned a place.We finished preparation for good start in a month and decided to make a grand opening party.I invited plenty of tuners,girls,friends,photographer.We made some barbeque and madephotoset with girls.
After party i begun to rebuild my new car.It taked 4 month.i rebuilt body and reassemled it from bumper to bumper.
Some photos: i'll upload tomorrow

before white's rebuild

after

damn wish i had shop like that but goodluck with your build

it's only half of my story

Hello,guys! Awful shit happens in Ukraine but nothing matter when it's time to build.Just has no time to write about process))

After i reassembled white GSX,I left my shop because I was always arguying with my partner.And we couldn't share money lot of times.He returned my part of investion,i rented some garages for my cars and equipment and moved out.

Couple of months i enjoyed ride,sea and girls.But car required service and i decided to get back in business.
I met a new partner.He was real customizer and real fan of american cars.He has couple of Stangs and LT1 which we sold to start new shop.First it was little place only for two cars but then we expanded a little and installed some lifts.

My old shop closed in a half of year and i bought equipment and internet site from it.
Meanwhile in my GSX died clutch,engine and some elecritcs.I wanted to fix it his winter but my Tucson's automatic gearbox decided to die too.And i left without cars for four month.

Some photos^

Hi,guys.It's summer time and for someone it means to rest ,but for us it mean to build with double speed.

Finally, i nearly finished businesses with my shop and started to do my cars
