THE MOTHER LAND.

I was born in Baliwag, Bulacan Philippines, moved to the United States upon birth. I learned the language and even got sent there for a year and a half for... lets not get into that. I grew up in a predominately hispanic neighborhood and with that came the influence of becoming latino. I didn't have many filipino friends until I hit highschool for my junior year, there I experienced my culture. I enjoyed being apart of my kind and soaked up the Fil-am culture. I'm proud of my people.

THE GOOD LIFE PROJECT.

I don't want to spoil the project so I will let you in on some of our current projects going on. "The Good Life Project will be somewhat of a short film showcasing every element for what SarapBuhay stands for. I guess itll all make sense once the project is kicked off... I got together with Danny LA, Bryson Reno and Nasty Nate to discuss this future project, looks like we are all on the same page! These guys have been working hard to put something out worthy for all of us to enjoy. So Stay tuned for the teaser.

RAW TALENT TUESDAY.

There is so much talent out there that never gets the right or enough recognition. I'm always inspired when ever I run into talent that is groomed or all natural. Take the time to listen to this cover of Unthinkable- Alicia keys by Jane Rio.

MIKE LIMESTRO.

Limer aka Mike has been a long life friend of mine. I still remember the first day I met him... He thought we were a bunch of FOBS because we were speaking taglish ( Tagalog and English) and we all spoke tagalog but born and raised in California hahah! Since then we grew close and till this day we act Gago (stupid) in our early mid 30's. Anyways, peep some of his video work of HASL x ZODAK x BRISK legal bombing. Good work Brother.

VH x S13

The other night we hooked up with Local San Antonio drifters that have been frankensteining motor swaps for quite a while. His name is Ryan and I believe he was the first in San Antonio to do a VH swap into a S13. I was quite impressed by these backyard concoctions of cars. Ryan is currently offering these turn key swaps so If you are interested in a V8 Nissan powered drift his contact info is ryan@smoke-em.com

Heres the breakdown of what is included and done...
Vh45de with under 100k(chain/guides/tensioners/gaskets/ect...replaced if need be)
z32 tt tranny
custom tranny adapter (similar to mazworx but a higher grade aluminum)
machine bellhousing
oe q45 rubber mounts on custom engine mounts
stage 1/2/3 clutch (your choice)
lightweight flywheel
transmission mount
custom shifter mount
custom driveshaft
longtube headers
engine harness
WORKING A/C
sr radiator
for $4k installed and running
Im sure im leaving some of the stuff out but thats the jist of it. If anyone is a diyer and has any questions or would like to buy individual pieces to do they're own swap I'm more than willing to give you guys a hand. We've got all the jigs set up to pump these swap parts out like crazy.
