few pics from the past, 2004, my other e30 m3 & Porsche 911 before RSR transformation

[vlad]

I want to be you when I grow up. Those look awesome!

thanks ! I want to be me when I look at those pics :D but it's not easy, believe me, nothing comes the way you plan it initially, all these restorations are hard fought battles and lots of headaches

[z50_Jumper]

Holly hell, I love the Porsche, Honestly I don’t know which version I like better though, the RSR is incredibly awesome and is an absolute head turner but my taste is actually liking the old version of it a little better. Awesomeness...

[cramer]

You know I think I actually like your 911 more before the restoration then after. Love the Ruf wheels on there :)

Those red sparcos sat really high in your DS M3! Were you able to get a helmet on without hitting the roof?

Great taste in vehicles VLAD:-D!! Keep up the awesome work.
RSR is sweet!! Gotta love FLAT-6's:up:

Those are some beautiful cars...
OT: what engine are you running in your white E30? the mag says the S14 wasn't enough for you, but doesn't state what you did to it...

I want to see pictures of Vlad.

Owning a shop is clearly lucrative. The thing people forget is that Vlad has probably worked his ass off to get where he is and paid for those cars many times over in sacrifice. Obviously there's some luck on the way mixed in but I highly doubt this all landed in his lap.

Cool to see the P-car before the transformation. I like those 17" Rufs on the earlier cars. The round fogs looked sweet, too.

I think you need to do a Ferrari next. Some kind-of crazy, unique 355 Spider maybe?

Just as a little FYI, the EVO's had there rear trailing arms re-inforced (I've created another poor MS Paint diagram to illustrate my point). The racing team’s weilded in bar stock to stiffen up the arms (I've drawn that in red).



My friend Micah has perfected it. He did quite a bit of research on it (it was done on the ones at the BMW museum in the Carolina's). Rich, Micah and I are all running this way. We wielded them up at the same time I did the whole suspension, so I can't say I know/ feel the difference, but the race teams seemed to think it mattered..

I hate people that say you are a "Check Book Moder" You never get anywhere without working your ass off and making good decisions along the way. Planning takes a long time and you my GOOD SIR are great at What you do. I have enjoyed seeing your threads and you have very good taste in cars. Like the replica car the best and people like you really set the bar for us "normal" guys. Lol I hate looking in my driveway to.

I do think we need a Picture of you though, to see who is behind the camera
