Borrowed .marinceski’s S14 for a few laps over the weekend and ohhhh myyyy god 🥰 THIS is the dream setup. I drove it when I dyno’d it a year ago for the 8hp swap, but since then Jono’s gone 1.5J and a heap of other stuff. I’m so proud of how this car has leveled up in the past couple years, and I’m stoked to have played a part in it ✨

Driving this really scratched the 8HP itch, now it’s all i want in my next S chassis 😏

We’re back in Japan this week for Spring Matsuri!

Was so good to pull up and see the ol’ faithful JZX90 sitting in the bushes, and it started with about half a rotation on the key. So good.

Day 1 spent installing some new parts and giving it a once over, and tomorrow - puts in bulk laps before G1GP ✨

Can’t wait to show you all the Tanoshi spec refresh we gave it 🤣 🇮🇪

Starting a fun little project today (yes, the day before we leave for Japan 🤣) swapping this HKS supercharged GT86 to the engine it should have had in the first place, a 1JZ VVTi ✨

1JZ update 😅

Rather than be sad about this one, I’m genuinely impressed at what this engine went through for the past 3 years. We swapped it in garage the night before Matsuri, I bounced it off limiter for an enitre lap of Luddenham. I loaned it to .marinceski for halfway hangs.

It did over a thousand laps in three cars, and in the end, some idiot tuner (me) got too spicy with the timing and did something silly with the safeties. I killed it, but hey, the more you know 🤷‍♂️ (and this is why you experiment on your own s**t!)

Ty for your service 1J, may you live on with fresh 2J bottom end 😏

Swipe to see some of my favourite cars that were built in this little garage 👉

Today we moved out of the OG Car Shop Tanoshi... 5 years, a few good doggo’s, countless cars and a bunch of friends. We’ll remember this little garage as the one that started it all. Thanks to everyone who was part of it!

Can’t wait to show you all the new place 🥰 it’ll truly change Car Shop Tanoshi into what we’ve always wanted 🚗💨

JDM Melody boxes are BACK IN STOCK!

Reminder… I make these for special cars and owners who care about having cool stuff. I spend way more time than it’s worth building these things, but I love hearing what you guys want them to say!

2025 Recap: Friends good. Doggo good. Family good. Work good. Drifting good. Best year yet 👍

Interesting results from adding a front sway bar to the E82. It sways less 🤣

Really enjoying the shots from last weeks Spicy Bois Xmas Bash. Car ran well, so I really had a ton of (sometimes misguided) confidence in throwing it around!

Thanks heaps for the photo .legs

It’s like the Meihan wall. But not… because we (and our wallets) stay tf away from those Haltech signs 🤣

Amazing pic from .legs - appreciate you coming out to hang with us for the day dude!

As far as an Xmas party went, this one was an absolute ripper 🎄

Really enjoy these events where it’s all our friends hanging out for the day! The E82 was also super enjoyable, putting in a hard days work in the heat with minimal issues 💪
