All pics and story is absolutely 100% true... would I lie to SAU?

Meet "Rei"... (2001)

And here she is at 6pm tonight...

I work with this girl. I had NO IDEA she used to work for TRIAL garage in Osaka!!! I won't divulge her name (it's the done thing amongst RQs so she tells me) but she goes by the "stage name" of Rei.

There I was yesterday evening sitting down in an empty classroom on one of my breaks, sorting through the last of my TAS photos on my mobile. Rei is sitting at the front desk going over some scheduling changes (she works part-time for us as Japanese staff), when she gets up and comes over and says "nani sore?" (whats that - obviously she knew it was a mobile!) and I tell her it's a DoCoMo camera phone. I show her some of the pics from the TAS, and then she says "Do you like Race Queen or Companion?" to which I reply "Of course"...

She then asks me to come to the front desk, where she quickly does a Google search for an RQ site. She then asks whether I know TRIAL! "Yeees! Why do you ask?" I say. "I worked for TRIAL as a RQ and Companion for 1 year, I did shows at the Osaka Auto Messe and at Central Circuit and events at TRIAL..." she said. And I'm like "Really?! Why did you quit?", which she replies "I don't like to diet!!!"

Then the unbelieveable happened... she said "If you want me and my friends to pose for you, it's no problem, but you need to give us some costumes"...:headspin::headspin::headspin:

Without a word of a lie, she SUGGESTED that I take photos *of her and her friends* in full costumes...:wassup:

Guys of SAU, I appologize. I realize that you must see me as some guy that joins up at this forum and since July last year, has sprouted all this amazing stuff about Japan, V35 Skylines, Auto Salons, Nismo Festivals, Tuning shops and now Race Queens, without any 2nd thought. But it's true, this is my life, and I'm just letting you guys in on it.

Stay tune, I'll sort a "Rezz's Photo Diary Special - Race Queens: Up Close and Personal" edition...

Her promo card...

Time to invest in a proper camera Rezz :cheers:

Yeah, I know! My phone cost heaps (as much as a proper digicam). But a "proper" camera is in the pipeline...

I'm pretty sure your better half won't be too happy about setting up private studio sessions with lovely race queens! :cheers:
If I tell her they're paying me for the photography, she'll be cool. Hell, I want the missus to join in!

Just might wanna edit out her email addy on the promo card. Poor girlies probably gonna be inundated with emails from half the blokes on the SAU! ;)

I can imagine the content of many of those emails:

"So, you wanna move to Australia? How about coming to live with me, rent is free! ;) "

:D :D :D

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
