JAE - what can I say? In a word: awesome.

I’m back from JAE now and i’m exhausted! The show was really awesome, the cars looked great, massive crowds and the weather was blinding.

I spent the weekend polishing my 180sx (on the Funky Power stand), checking out some awesome machines (I’ve never seen so many gorgeous T04Z turbos in the same place), and enjoying the friendly banter and incredible weather with more then a few Magners to smooth along the whole process..

My 180sx was on the stand beside the Funky Power NSX and it didn’t look *too* out of place I chatted with a guy from Banzai magazine and fingers crossed he took some sweet pictures.

We have put together a small video of our JAE experience, check that out at the top of this post and the photos we took will follow soon.

Check out this cracking video of a T04E turbo’d 180sx running 345rwhp tearing up the streets of Okinawa, Japan.

The noise alone makes me hunger for a big turbo…

It’s cleaning time!

I’ve been offered the opportunity to display my car at the Japanese Auto Extravaganza event at Mersey Island on the East Coast. I’ll have my 180 on the Funky Power stand next to some pretty special cars, including the incredible Funky Power NSX. I’ll be down there from this Thursday, to Saturday night.

To get my car up to scratch i’ve been cleaning and waxing it this weekend. I’ve also been busy putting on some quality manufacturer and team stickers on the car, enjoy the pics and let me know what you think of the stickers

Wax that bumper!

Buffed off.

Buffed off the whole car.

Nice and shiny

New Yashio Factory windscreen decal.

Note the new decal stack on the rear glass to the left, the colours really lift out from the black and give the car a more finished look.
