Picked up a 23 8speed in December with plans of rulebook racing. Like all things Arizona I got my 1st rock chip in less than a mile.

I was driving an 2002 IS300 for track use but just decided it's time for a new car.

Ordered a ton of parts while prepping for the next event which will be my 1st with the GR.
Verus parts. I have a few more parts needing to be installed.

Congrats & keep 'em coming :)

Don't know if it's just me wondering, but what is the significance of the title of your post? Not familiar with "HBG Grip Style" ? :)

HeartBreakersGarage is the name of my youtube/shop. Most of my cars are a letdown in someone eyes, so I thought it was fitting. Like my SR20-powered Lexus or LS power FD3s. Grip style just means its being built for time attack.

I installed a seat waiting on a harness and sub bracket. I made a video for YouTube but probably can't use it since most of it was me cursing and being angry. I have to admit the GRsupra was probably the longest pita seat install I have ever witnessed. Also installed a cusco harness bar which led me to drop shit behind the plastics. It was great.

Ditched the oem steering wheel so crawling into the bucket seat is easier. However the paddles are pretty easy to knee. Waiting on a harness to mount.

Loaded some new Advans AO52's and some titan 7 wheels to get mounted. I miss my truck but not the gas cost. I started ripping apart the dash to install a gauge I got form Razorlab.

Got the gauge, Cusco Harness, Cusco front and rear tow hooks installed. Instead of using tape I just used lasers. I kinda feel like these Cusco sub mounts arent going to pass tech but we will find out soon.
