V$ Zero G Builds

Zero · 2017-03-28T19:00:40+00:00

I'm called Zero and for the past five years i've been basically drifting missiles at Ebisu and it was fun but i never kept a car or even built one properly ( i do have experience with cars 🙂) ) And i decided to buy the most typical drift car ever known to a car guy.... A S13 Hatch. Its a bit beat up as this was also drifted at Ebisu but i never saw it run there so im skeptical about that but its decent-ish and i say this because it still has the original CA18DET and the poor little 1.8 has done

I would do the inverse

Throw the Rb on the skyline and the Jz on the SX

Zero

I would have if i had both engines at the same time when they wasnt being put in but since i have the RB in the 180 its more time and effort to remove it etc. I may end up selling the R32 anyway since i want something Toyota and its gonna be a 86 so.. Any offers around 4-5k and its yours

Zero

I fucked up!..

Basically took the R32 along Mt.Haruna and after i finished the uphill run i went for the downhill and as i neared the 5 Hairpins i braked and as i entered the corner the rear kicked out too much and spun round 360 degrees and i ended up hitting the guardrail and fully writing off the front end (Urghh so much work too!). I was fine luckily but with it being my own fault i cant get any money apart from sell the engine etc. (Which i did this morning to a garage in the city) I made about $1500 altogether from the engine and some interior trims and other parts that were fine. I needed another car so i was stumped and couldn't think of any to get so i asked my friends and they said something Toyota. My brain flickered and i was like AE86 power!!! I started searching and came across one such 86 on the other side of town. I made the drive there and was astonished to see how clean yet thrashed it was from drifting.

No pics yet but its a mad car which has the stock Blue-Top 16v engine and its got some parts on it but it only cost me like $4300. So i had him drop it off for me since i had the S13 with me and couldnt drive two cars at once - Maybe i could?

Pics later today since i have just got it today.

Bit quick for this to happen but a crash is a crash so...
RIP R32 2J monster - i say monster haha

Finances:
8739 + 1500 = 10239
10329 - 4300 = 5939

Added 1 hour 51 minutes later:

So the car is a 1983 Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT-APEX (Zenki) and being an early model means its always better - i think anyway - but its got the original 16v and has not been tampered with really. Pushes out around 130hp and feels quite nice to drive and it has decent torque for a 1.6.

Its a non panda variant and looks good without the panda markings but i may get panda trim, black bumper and rear bumper set off the red quite nicely and it looks good for OEM parts.

The interior is stock apart from a AFR gauge and some stickers on the glove box but still has all the original pieces and still feels comfy.
The wheels are Hayashi Street's and look really good for 16"s and the tires are pretty chunky but fit good. Its running TEIN super street coils and is lowered all the way to 5" all way round and looks good at that height.

Anyway that was the car, now i need ideas for it! Hit me up wit some..

Zero

So i was running the stock seat and steering wheel but it wasn't really good for what i was doing and thats flying down the Touge... So i went and bought a bundle where you get a Bride Zeta III seat and a ATC Volanti wheel. They came today and i installed them and it already feels great and the wheel feels sick in my hands.

Nice 86! I want to get one some day

Zero

Find some for decent money with shipping too! Have to look man!

Zero

New Stuff?!

During the last 7 days i was buying new parts for the 86 and S13 and i found some mint Type-X sideskirts and i matched them to the body paint and they look sick - Cost me about $400 for sideskirts and paint

I also bought a full Run-Free kit for the 86 and being black it looks pretty good and it only cost $600 which isnt bad.
A kakimoto exhaust was bought too for the S13 so i can release all the RB goodness and the sound deadning was removed too so i can hear all the boosts.

Finances:
4*550 = 2200 (paycheck)
5439 + 2200 = 7639
7639 - 1200 = 6439

yo i am going to make a trip to japan soon and i'll be driving my old 86 for an week maybe we can hit the touge?

Zero

Yea man sure!

New Daily!! - Sort of?

After buying the AE86 i used that as a daily for a while but then the new kit and it being lowered was giving me problems on the way to work and such...
So i started looking at cheap 2.0l's and i found something cool..
I have always wanted AWD and this came with it and being a 2.0l and turbo it was perfect. Now in Japan, the two main AWD 2.0l Turbos are either an EVO or Impreza and EVO's are becoming expensive so a impreza is the likely choice. So i went with the GC8 chassis and i found a Type RA STi for sale near me and it was priced at 3k so i was like.. Imma cop that.

Drove there, picked her up and boosted home.

Here she is:

A Sick Meet Happened!

So i was told a meet was happening in a local supermarket's parking lot. This gave me a great opportunity to bring out the S13 and show off its RB heart - I didnt know a S14 with a fully forged RB was going too.

I arrived and instantly had to park next to the S14 and then i discovered that it was also RB powered which made my stock RB look like a baby. The reason was because it was a fully forged, stroked to 3.2 and was pushing 1001hp on twins.

S14 RB32:
The engine made me jealous and i hadnt even looked at the full car yet! He had a full cage (custom), 330mm Brembo's, Bride Zeta III seats and loads of other stuff but his rims were sexy - nevermind the colour tho! BC make some nice rims.

Now i did notice a AE86 next to it and it made me wonder if that had been swapped or not and it hadnt but it was clean for its age.

AE86:
Now it looked stock all round but it wasnt, it had a mix of wheels going from hayashis in the front to some older style ones. I didnt catch the name but inside it had another Bride Seat and a metal guard plate underneath. Everything was stock apart from the springs.

Oh and it had wide rear fenders riveted on!

An FC!
This FC tho was far from stock or typical, it was a beast inside and out

A massive 1JZ sits up front pushing out 600hp and sounded godly! It two exhausts both with massive tips poking out the back!

A ER32 Too!

This ER32 was stock engine wise but had TEIN coilovers and was fully lowered on them and was sitting pretty with WORK Meister M1's in chrome finish. It sounded good for a RB20DET and did make some cool spool sounds but the exhaust was odd since it reminded me of the old 280Z's exhaust with it being on its side.

Now next to that was a really cool GC8 sedan.

This GC8 had taken some Nissan Love and was a hybrid of AWD Subaru and RWD Nissan. The engine was smaller than stock engine (displacement wise) since it was rocking a CA18DET and was also running a Getrag Gearbox so it was 6 Speed and RWD. It was pushing 300hp and it sounded amazing!

The widebody did house some R33 wheels which look so cool and do go well with the red paint.

Now i had to get a pic of my beast... So i did!
Here she is sitting pretty.

That was the meet so enjoy the pics!

Soju

Those are damn nice cars
Nice choice on the Subaru tho 🙂

...Bad Luck Happens To Us All...

Driving the S13 for a weekend cruise through the city... Nothing bad can happen?
Well i pulled up at the lights and waiting for it to go green i hear something tearing up in the nearby street, i think nothing of it. Green
I set off and go straight ahead then bammmm me and the car go across the street into oncoming traffic and a truck is missing its front end on the other side. Lucky i had my belt on but the car is literally fucked... I try getting out by i get a twinge and really painful feeling in my neck. I stay still. The truck driver gets out and does a runner but i manage to get his plate salvaged by a passer by and i keep it so i can at least get insurance money etc. The police come and ambulance arrives. Im taken to the local A&E and sorted after a few hours apart from i have a cone on my head . Embarrassing .

All i could think about was my baby but shes in a mechanics shop being assessed for damage and how much i can get back including compensation from the driver.

A Few days go by and i get my money and feel some what better but i can never get back what i put into that beast. However i was told the engine was fine just needed to have some new lines redone since they was trapped and cut.

So a RB isn't so bad but i need a car to put it in. Trying to look with my fucked up cone didnt do much help but i thought fuck it, and took it off. I tried to not move my neck as much but it feels better now and i can at least turn left and right a little bit.

Well anyway the car was declared a write off and was sent to scrap but i did get $10000 back from compo and insurance etc.

R.I.P S13 RB26 beast thing.
