Bought this car brand new off the lot years ago since it's been a dream car for a while. From day one she's been modified and making power ranging from 300whp to now 600whp.
This car has been on such a journey throughout its life thus far especially for it being my first tuner car. From not knowing what to mod first other than an accessport and intake to now being fully built, it has taught me so much about this platform. I've learned quickly that this car/platform has tons of problems but they're easily mitigated with proper maintenance, some mods, and ultimately my own driving. This car has been my rock throughout these years, especially through some darker times. It's also opened up such a big community for me and made me some lifelong friends (even EVOs ?).
I genuinely love this car and never intend to let it go since we've both been through so much. I've grown with the car and the car has grown with me. Ultimately, I plan on retiring Miyuki from daily driving and having her be a dedicated race car/weekend driver. But first off we'll have to touch up some more suspension pieces and add a tidge more power.
Miyuki is also a testament to my philosophy of doing things right and treating the car right that it will last. She's also a huge testament to cars being pivotal to peoples' lives and being one of the best teachers to your own growth.
