@dxg: That thing is a killer, dude! You did a great job with that Toyota drivetrain in my Golf. Sounds nice, too!
Here is the BMW I talked about:   I'll try to find a BMW engine for it. Apart from that it'll be the usual stuff; Paint it black, other wheels, maybe some stickers or even a airbrush. |

If I'm not mistaken a guy in Franklin Street is trying to sell a 1992 Supra. Do you think it's worth checking out? If not I'll keep my ears open and let you know. And if you need a trailer or something to tow a trailer, I can lend you my van.

Whats up guys? I finally finished rebuilding the engine. I decided to go with a single turbo since these FC's were never Twin Turbo and I wanted to keep it as original as posible.
 Every seal was replaced with a Mazdatrix seal kit and all the Apex were replaced with carbon ones so this engine should last 80k+ miles more. That is if I control myself, these engines are rev happy and my foot is quite heave on the pedal :p Also got around fitting some body parts. Progress is slow since Im working on a shop project and another car for a customer. Details on those soon.

The Impreza I built earlier this year RIGHT HERE is up for sale in the classified section. I see everyone doing 200's, 240's, and Silvia's so think I wanna get on the bandwagon. We also have a client comin in with a porsche who is looking for a full build for drift, so I'll be posting about that as well as the Nissan build.

The STI is now sitting on the coils now
  Could go a lot lower but this is my daily for now so only 1in drop in the front and 1.5 in the rear. just enough to get rid of that wheel gap    I ordered a carbon inlay for my huge sti wing I have sitting on the back should be here in the next day or so. Also, going to look at a 300zx today, if everything goes right a new project will be in store. are there any drift events coming up? my im looking for an opportunity to bust out the LS-onevia again.. |

Ok that's cool, I'll save it for you.
So I just bought a running 89' S13 and 68' Mustang Fastback chassis haha. Gonna turn them both into drift cars. I initially went to meet the guy to look at the S13 and noticed the stang in a shed. So I asked him about it and he said it was a project but he lost interest in it and offered it to me for $500 with the parts he had so far. So I ended up paying $6100 for both. Will update on them soon. This post was edited by gmaw (2015-01-01 23:19, ago) |

Here's an update on the Subaru. I got the body kit installed, and as soon as I put the last bulb into the taillight, the suspension arrived. I used the air bags I originally intended to use on this, on the Merc (Update on that too soon), so I ordered some HKS Hipermax Drags for front AND rear. I got some generic alloy's and some Good-Year drag tires, and installed them all. The engine is totally overhauled with upgraded internals, and shes running about 22 psi right now. I could go up to about 36 if I really wanted to, but that's just ludacris. I got an OMP racing seat and a cage. I used the last of the money II got from Facepalm buying my Ram and Datsun on a new project, which once it gets delivered, You guys will be surprised. I payed 30k for a fully built up, V8 swapped Silvia S15. It's purple with green wheels xD
 For the exhaust I fabbed up a true Quadflo 4 inch pipe. Thing is a monster, and I get absolutely no backpressure.   I went over to Facepalm's garage, and did the exhaust on his racing 'Stang. I heard the damn thing idling in my own garage! That thing is pretty sweet man. I might pick one up once I sell a few vehicles. Here's a list of the cars I still have... EJ Swapped Volvo 850 Drag Impreza FrankenLevin Mercedes S-Class 350Z swapped Buick T-Type Mazda RX7 FD Added 1 hour 35 minutes later: So, the Merc underwent a pretty awesome engine overhaul. I installed a Garrett GT35R Turbo, and made some new exhaust tips for it. I shortened the old ones, and fitted some chrome tips. I swapped the body for an AMG Gen 2 kit, and had to raise the suspension a little to fit the front bumper and skirts. Anyways, the car is for sale if anyone wants it. I'll post it on the classifieds in a little bit.  Am I the only one who sees a little VR4 Galant in this pic?  And the engine. Still diesel.  Added 41 minutes later: Also. Tom, WTF did you say to people?! I've had 4 cars come in wanting 4A-GE Swaps with live rear axles! This one was the most interesting imo. A Subaru Legacy RS STi... Came in with NO engine or drivetrain    Wanted a fully built 4A-GZE Black top engine with a Cusco LSD...

Guys, i don't know what i should put in the S14, a 2JZ, another RB26DE(T(T)), LS, a Flat-4 out of a Subby, a SR20DE(T), or a VR38DETT
Anymore suggestions for a motor? That or a new project car, and let the ol' S sit for a while, now that i ordered a new bumper and fender and got them painted. |

That'll last as long as the RB's do, because of the rear end it'll bounce off the rev limiter all day.

I can fix you up. Swap out the rear, build the engine, and give you a pretty good deal on it. Plus, I wonder if your S14 could go door to door with my FrankenLevin. I've been door to door with an LS powered S13 in a Fiero...

That's so much work XD
I'll find a wrecked Vette or Camaro and jack the LS3 out of it and rebuild it. I saw a semi hauling a Vette and a Camaro amungst some 'Rollas and Sentra's towards the local wrecking yard, no idea if the motors are any good, or if they even went to the scrap. I'll test N/A first, but build it for boost, and probably switch the gears to 3.23's |

So update on the stang, I cleaned it up, put on the new parts, and installed a drift suspension. I am still looking for rims though. Preferably 18" so if you have anything please let me know.

@dxg: I tell people the truth, dude. When I was looking for a BMW engine(found one) these guys were asking about the Golf and I told them a thing or two. They were like: What? That thing has a Toyota engine? Saw your sticker, too.
It took me 2 weeks to get that engine in. It's a s52b32 I6. Since the engine bay was for an I4, I had to cut a few things to make it longer.

Im well aware of that. But a 6cyl engine should fit straight into the enginebay of a 4cyl model without any modifications of the enginebay as far as i know.

I don't know if the model of that mod is accurate; I thought that the part where the fan clips in was on the actual car as well.

I've been door to door with an LS powered S13 in a Fiero... The LS Onevia still has the battle scars to match (; and my LS is twin turbo and still runs fine I recommend it   Also I picked up that 300zx.. and boy is it a piece of work. no motor and the worst paint ive ever seen on one of these, but atleast it still has the original wheels. after running the vin number I found that this is a legit twin turbo model, so that may find its way back into here. this is gonna be my stance build, right now sourcing a Nissan v6

@CamaroFan I have an LS3 crate engine with performance headers and blue paint I could sell you. I'm not using it anyways so I don't mind. I'm still looking for some rims for the stang so maybe we could trade?

Hey People!
Long time no see. I've been away for a couple days at my friends place but the AE86 is coming back. Got some parts for it and took of those hideous meshes and got other wheels. *Lil pic*  I know this pic ain't showing the rims but more is coming! |
