1.xx.05 So i ended up parting out my FC, cutting up the carcus and throwing it away. i picked me up a cressida :)
12.20.04 Well we was out street drift when my engine finally went poop. Right now it has no power at all, i hear some rattling near the turbo/exhaust ports and my exhaust sounds really different and shitty. The exhaust sound change started back the day before the vds event in canada when we were driving around and i got on it in this huge tunnel thing, when i let go of the gas i shot a huge muffawking fireball and my exhaust sound changed a little bit different. so i guess maybe when it started goin down hilll eh? anywho it looks like engine #3 for me. It wont be for some time though because right now i stopped dumping stupid ammounts of cash into the fc and started saving for my summer Europe trip, its gonna be fun.
12.16.04 I have full GP Sport aero, 20 front fenders and 30 rear on the way. A Team has decided to paint our cars dark purple with rainbow flakes! shits gonna be hot, just have to find the right purple, something not too dark, want to be able to tell its still purple but not normal purple... but I think im going to keep it boro for a while more. its super fun now the car is trash so i dont have to worry about crashing any more. past week of street drift has been fun but now my engine is beat to shit and has been overheating alot. i gotta get it up on jack stands and tie up the dozens of loose ends. theres another event middle next month in bremerton, hope i can have my engine running strong by them or get another one. i still have 2 new es100 and 2 new cum on my hoes 711's to burn!
12.6.04 well haha i had the fc up and running. ended up just buying a used running engine and it ran really strong. bought a pair of greddy 720cc injectors, got my ecu chipped and a greddy vpsl intercooler i just got a few days ago.
i went to a vds drift event yesterday, keept overheating like crazy every 2laps or so. then i crashed into three fence poll thingies. trying to be cool and drop my rear off into the dirt/grass stuff but didnt know there was a 9-10 inch drop off when the pavement ended. so it grabed me and tossed me into some fence. i went back to the states, picked up my stock intercooler and wheels. raised the car, beat the fender to clear the wheel, ducktaped and ziptied the bumper and headlight so it works now. d
Damage count is busted to shit brand new greddy vspl fmic, front humper, headlight, both fenders, one 17x9 impul r701, one 17x9 vip, rear 1/4 trashed, tailight, rear bumper, and the mounting point for the lower control arm on the passanger side. where the control arm bolts to the crossmember. the mounting point got pushed forward about an inch.
7.14.04 DOH! so me and some friends were playing redfaction2 on ps2 and we see this chick jogging around the neightborhood that i havent seen around before. so i go to the front of the garage with my rear side plate and a die grinder to port it so i can be out there to check out this check without being um suspicious hahah. so while i was checkin her out i forgot to lift my finger off the die grinder and it slips onto the face of my housing! eh sucks i just ruined my housings. so you can see the picture below where the grinder walked on my housings. bleh hahah.
also for some strange mother F**kin reason i picked up some lime green paint and sprayed my tranny and rotor housings LIME FAWKIN GREEN! hahah it looks retarted but now im thinking of painting the intermediate/side housings and intake manifold bright yellow! haha so it'd be a lime/lemon engine haha. i duno.
6.23.04
got my hands on a set of 17x10 +12 FN01RC set with 225/45 tires and i slapped em on, what do you know they fit! up front they needed some fender rolling and rear just a tiny bit. oh well i sold em to my friend nikolay becuase i need money to rebuild my engine. anywho pictars below.
6.4.04
So i did a compression test and i got 20-20-40 on the rear housing. haha not too good, so i pulled the engine out again and tore the engine down. Both rotor housings are fawked, the rear housing a apex seal broke a little peice off and scratched the housing and rotor pretty good, which expains why i never had any power before my turbines spooled. I've been going back n forth between picking up another used running engine for like $600-900 or just rebuild the engine with all NEW parts which would prolly end up costing me $2000+. I decided to save my pennies and rebuild this engine with all new parts, i mean after its done everything would be new and fresh, i dont have to worry about anyhting breaking unless i dont tune the thing right. i'd have a nice reliable engine so i just have to worry about drifting.
i already missed three local drift events because my engine wasnt running, now its going to be another 2-3 months before i get the cash to finish my engine. WACK! shoulda kept my s13.
4.04.04 so for the past month i tore my front and rear subframe's out along with the suspention and engine so i can replace some parts, i installed set of Tein HE, Energy Suspention urethane bushing kit, a dtss elim. bushing, Mazda Trix front and rear solid sway bar endlinks, and a set of Super Now tie rod endlinks and spacers.
installed fresh brembo blank rotors, EBC Green stuff pads and a new brake master cyl. then i put in my Cusco RS 2way lsd, Clutchnet 6puck sprung clutch, some S13Slide SPl solid engine mounts and block off plates for them emissions and rats nest junk removal. i picked me up a Pan Speed High flo turbine and S5 manifold, 3" downpipe, testpipe and catback off ebeezy for $350 shipped! its crap no name but i dont care, that ish will get crushed and bent cause i like my cars low....
Its been a LONG ass month with plenty sleepless nights and my engine seems to be getting worser, less and less low end power every week. prolly end up having to tear the b*tch down.
12.xx.03
The new FC that is replacing my S13 drift machine. i picked it up for a cool $1000, running but overall rough condition since its been sitting for 2years. suspention is real shot, all bushings are rotten to sh*t, shocks blown, lsd doesnt lock up as it should. i gotta alot of work to do.
