Introduction Hello, I introduce myself, My name is Juan, I am 19 years old, I was born in Uruguay, but a little over 15 years ago I moved with my family to Phoenix, AZ. A few days ago I graduated from an industrial high school in Arizona as an Electromechanical Technician, and with my hard work in a mechanical workshop where I worked since 2016, and with the savings that I was putting together, I raised 20000V$ and bought my first cars ... A 2002 Acura RSX Type-S, In very good condition, 100000

Return to Japan! : Drift season

I have returned to Japan to start in the drift season

I was looking at the auctions to get the car at a low price and I am among these three cars, I would also be helped by some suggestions that you give me

I have seen a Skyline ER34, in "Good condition"

RB25DET engine , manual transmission, with some modifications, Greddy coils, and some aftermarket wheels, although if or if you need a new bodykit when you go to vinilar with the logo of the workshop

I have also seen a 2001 Toyota Aristo V300

2jz-gte VVTI engine, and 6-speed gearbox, in very good condition

And I've also seen a 180sx, quite battered

SR20DET engine running, although it needs a lot of work on the outside to make it perfect for vinyl

If someone has a suggestion about a car to buy, let me know by pm, and if you have a car for sale that can serve me, also let me know by pm or say it here

Why buy a new one? Use the RX (for example).

Mr_Stance

I'm in Japan , And the rx is in california
The rx was my third car in rp , and is so fucking clean , i gont want to modyfing it much
And another problem, The fc is N/A, and it has less than 100,000 miles (i sold it with less than 80k , and and was in the workshop of Lagano stopped for a few months, obviously igniting it every so often, going out for a spin, etc) and it works great, I do not want to ruin it and end up with an LS Swap
Maybe i can use the AE85 , That car is ready , but the power is a little low (200hp) , i will need a new engine , like a 3SGE TRD

That's why I asked them to give me opinions about this

saletl

Well kinda depends on how much money you want to spend. In total! Drifting is Motorsport = expensive!

Mr_Stance

Exactly , Maybe i can go with the 85 in the Super-D
The body is perfect, so I could vinyl it.
And the engine has 200hp, but the car is light, then try to get an Altezza to get that 3SGE

But the problem is that I also want to enter the D1SL category, but it has other requirements that the 85 does not meet
Because I need another car, maybe an 86 Coupe, it's a good idea

btw , i sold my civic collection , My cousin bought the EJ2, My sister-in-law bought the 2001 and the EG6 I sold it to my brother , he will make a beast !
Soon he would show me photos about the car

Spoiler: EG6 : v$ 800
2001 Civic : 3000 V$
EJ2 : v$ 2000
31359 + 5800 = 37159

Mr_Stance

New project ? : Supra MK4

Looking for a car to compete in the D1SL, I found this car

A Toyota Supra MKIV Turbo, 6-speed manual gearbox, 2JZ-GTE Twin turbo engine
(Some modifications have to have, because stock 6-speed manual twin turbo supras aren't exist in this planet)

I offered 18000 V$ for this car, hopefully I will get it, because I have lost the cars that I offered, I will wait for the 5 hours left to the auction ...

(p.s: I've sold the 85, Lack of enthusiasm and motivation)

Spoiler: 85 : v$ 7000
37159 + 7000 = 44159

Mr_Stance

New D1SL Car!

After searching the auctions, and bidding in that above, offer my maximum point (18K), but some guy offered more and I gave up.
I started looking for other cars and found this car ...

A 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX STI, In perfect condition with original 69000 km, I bid $8300 and 12 minutes ago I got the glorious notification!

It's officially my car !!!
Now I just have to wait for it to be brought, it hurts that I'll ruin it to compete in the category, hahaha.
I will need to make a conversion to RWD or put more traction on the rear wheels, a good turbo, forged internals, etc.

I will need a Vape to become the typical owner of a Subaru hahahahaha

Spoiler: STI (incluiding taxes) : 9000
44159 - 9000 = 35159

saletl

4WD? The add says so. Lot of work to turn it Dori!

Mr_Stance

Isn's so much work really , look this

I just think a Scooby is not the best choice for a proper Drifter. Not that it isn't a great car, it's just too expensive to keep it running.

just my 5 cents tbh

To make myself clear here. It's not about the car itself it's about the investment to keep it running. There are plenty (could say shitloads) of parts for RPS', silvias, Mark2's etc. but not for subarus. So if you like to keep a drifter running you should make sure you got proper resources.

Plus if you want to link a proper subby drifter...

Mr_Stance

To go with something other than normal, but otherwise I could find another alternative, and save this as a good daily, I do not know

Added 1 minute later:

We will need to modify and weld the central differential and remove the front driveshafts
And ready, the subie will be RWD

Mr_Stance

New Car: Mark 2

Looking at the used car section I found this car

A Salvage 93 'Toyota Mark 2 GX90, In good condition, Had an accident but was well repaired, Motor 2.0, Automatic.

This car sold it to me @[deleted] for $ 750, It will not be for d1sl for the 2.0 engine, besides that you can not make swaps, so I will use it for daily for now

Spoiler: GX90 : V$ 750
Burger King Stop : V$ 9
35159 - 759 - = 34400

Decision on competences

With respect to dates and competitions, I have decided NOT to participate in D1SL, why? Because it will be too much work to build the car, it is too restricted, and also the subaru is so fucking CLEAN!

And in what category will I compete? , I will compete in Super-D!

And I'll take advantage of the fact that I have a car almost ready to compete!

The PS13 (240sx Coupé), has a swap of RB26DETT as you know, with other camshafts, bigger turbos, and delivered something more than 400hp if I'm not mistaken, we will try to run with the car with these modifications and then we will try to increase the power , placing forged internals, placing a big single topmount

And what will you do with the subie? , I will make changes, I will leave it with All-wheel drive and then I will sell it ...

For as long as I will talk with Saletl because he also competes in Super-D, so I see the dates of the races ...

For as long as I try to fix the wire harness,Although I have to also get a front cut to get the original front end, because they do not accept tubular chassis or tubular front cars , take the car to wrap and place the lights and the oem crystals.

Something big is coming!

radcoon

Nice S13 man.

saletl

why did you look for a car i you hold that beast anyway? Swap back to a sr20 and you're d1ls legal

Mr_Stance

Nah , i like the rb powa , And there is another problem, this is a 240SX Coupe, that is, Motor KA24 (I had a KA24E, manual box and open diff, then I broke it and made the swap of ca18det of a shredded 200sx that belonged to my brother
