Hello! I have been very busy. When practicing drift with my SILVIA I CRASHED!!! >:( Very very bad day. Lots of emotion. But I move forward and quickly build new car. Say HELLO! to my new machine! Still working, but making good progress. I am happy to see the new car. So far have already done testing, everything good! Now time for paint!
Say hello!
Also please watch my video!!! https://vimeo.com/106686645
This weekend I finally finished up my car and got a chance to take it to the circuit. I was having problems with my motor all day, but still managed to make things work. Here are some video and pictures, I will post more soon!
Hello everyone! It has been a long time since I have last wrote here. I have been very busy! But that does not mean I have not been working on the car. I have done many things to the car recently, and will try to show you these in a quick post!
Since I have last wrote, much has happened! Last few events of the drift season were great. The car was driving very well and you could see it! I was beginning to gain the respect of more experienced drifters at my home track. It was a very good feeling to be noticed. Believe it or not, I won drift competition at the last event! Even though some of my competitors had more experience and faster cars. It was a very good feeling to win!
Then winter came. I had many plans for the car, however winter brought much snow for us. When the snow is falling, I must work. So I had very little time for the car. However the drift season was coming up quickly, and I needed to focus on the car. I still had many goals to meet before the next season!
I started off with the install of Tomei M7960. I recieved turbo, manifold, injectors, Z32 MAF from a local friend for great price! I was very excited, yet also nervous. It would be my first time to switch to larger turbo. So I removed the motor to install turbo, new clutch, and Tomei oil pan!
Put motor back...
Then took the car for dyno tuning!
Felt so good to hear the car run again after winter. Tomei turbo and manifold make very cool sound together.
Then I install Tomei LSD with 4.6 final drive. Had been running welded gears and 4.6 final drive, it drove terribly. Extremely violent. Tomei LSD is money well spent.
Then I receive 326power coilovers! Very excited for these.
Wheel is Work VS-KF 9.5j 17 +15
Took the car for wheel alignment. Will be using different alignment with more power. Still not sure if satisfied... Too much rear camber. I will try it, but I have a feeling I will need to change. May be good way to become familiar with new turbo, will keep speed lower.
Also found beautiful white Work Meister 9j 17 +20 for good price! Could not resist!
Took the car outside for fresh air and test drive. Drives amazing! Suspension is greatly improved. Cornering feels much more stable thanks to coilovers and LSD. Cannot wait to test at the circuit!
That brings me to where I am today. Soon I will be able to take the car to the circuit for testing. It will be interesting to feel the difference.
Also, I have recieved more stickers. If anyone would like some, you should write me a message!
