- A New Beginning: YouTube, Corner Balanced, AE86, and G-Wagen Lots of NEWS in this one! Please give it a thorough read, as this will likely be my final post on Grand Mighty. For nearly an entire decade, I have maintained and written articles for Grand Mighty. I wrote on a couple of similar websites prior, even, but those have since been dissolved and the […]
- Ganador Mirrors: Blue Tint, Convex, Replacement Lenses I was in need of a pair of replacement lenses for my Ganador mirrors, so I contracted an OE Manufacturer of Automotive mirrors to replicate them. After footing the bill and going through the design process with them, I realized this could be a valuable part to share with the community and not just keep […]
- CornerBalanced.com It’s that time of year again. Time for another Forum entrepreneurship. I’ll preface this by admitting that yes, 7TUNED did not take off, amongst other smaller-scale attempts. Like
- The Grand Mighty Forum I’ve lost count, but this seems like it will be my third Forum try during my tenure on this website. Oh well, that’s not going to stop me from trying again and again. I’ll probably put up another forum a few months after this one invariably fails, too. After going through a life cycle of […]
- Interior Trim Refinishing Part 2 Today, I installed the climate control panel, shifter surround, and the stereo. Shoving the double DIN Pioneer into the slot was tricky because the wires in the dash had to be parted away in order for it to fit flush. For one reason or another, the shifter surround seems to clip in better than before […]
- 7TUNED.com While the progress on my RX-7’s interior project is approaching its finale, yet at a creeping pace, I’ve turned my attention into other areas. For one, the weather has been strangely cold during the past couple of weeks. Going into my garage feels like I’ve stepped into a refrigerator. Needless to say, I wasn’t privy […]
- Media Orientation The website in its current state has been running for almost 2 and a half years now, and in that time, I’ve gone through more than a few different layouts. This time, however, I don’t plan on changing it anytime soon. I think I finally hit a sweet spot between minimalism and presentation. The best […]
- Please Stand By I haven’t posted anything in almost 2 weeks, and as unacceptable as that is, I have a semi-legitimate excuse this time: my computer blew up. Okay, it first just died and then I’m pretty sure I blew it up. One day when I pushed the power button, it would start to boot up normally for […]
- Layout Refresh With Christmas vacation over and the start of the work week, I’ve been preoccupied to make this post sooner. I do feel that it is worthy of an announcement. The finishing touches were put on this new site layout about a week ago, just in time for the New Year. The previous layout was becoming […]
- Forums are Open! I was very close to dissolving this website almost entirely. After 2 years of writing, I thought I was starting to run out of material… that my posts weren’t really interesting. Instead, I bought new hosting and converted everything to a new Forum. I thought having a self-running community would be easier, but I soon […]
- R.I.P. Marco Simoncelli Excerpt from Asphalt and Rubber: Marco Simoncelli has tragically died today, after crashing in a horrific accident during the second lap of the Malaysian GP. Trading corners with Rizla Suzuki rider Álvaro Bautista and battling for fourth place, Simoncelli began the race in Sepang with his usual full-of-heart riding style. Certainly a podium contender for […]
- Litany of the Layouts If you’ve been paying attention to the site over the past few weeks, you may have noticed several different layout changes (one of which was prematurely declared here). It has been a rather frenetic process trying to obtain the right look. Although it became tedious and prolonged, I am finally giving this one my seal […]
