El Diablo Toyota

[AZSCsideways]

my new project is a 92 s13 coupe (named diablo), I've always wanted to build a 240 so when I came across this deal I didn't want to pass it up (I love coupes too). so far plans are for this to be a full track car setup for drifting but might take it out to a few autocross events, due to the fact that autocross cars and drifting cars are a lot alike.

What's done to it now
- Vertex Style Front Bumper
- Dmax Side Skirts
- Origin Front Widebody Fenders
- 50mm Rear Overfenders (Stock Quarter Panels Cut for Clearance)
- New OEM Nissan Silvia Brick Headlights
- OEM Nissan Silvia Corner Lights
- Aftermarket bumper lights
- New VIS Vented Carbon Fiber Hood
- Five Lug Conversion (needs work)
- Adjustable Rear Tow Arms
- 6 Point Cage (Supposedly done to SCCA Specs)
- Interior gutted
- Trunk utilizes hood pins
- New windshield and good glass all around
- Painted metallic black inside and out. Imperfections in fiberglass but looks decent from 5 feet away
- Shocks are stock

Plans
-1J swap (1J that is in my black car as of now)
-5 gallon fuel cell
-full suspension upgrades (subframes are coming out and everything is getting done)
-1 peace drive shaft
-tubing front and rear fenders
-paint cage and car (me and wes have been talking some crazy colors)
-single upgrade (still working on that)















the wheels are gone...just wasn't a fan

little update, been messing with the trunk to fit the fuel cell











welds haven't been too bad...

[AZSCsideways]

box full of stuff

[AZSCsideways]

well last night I picked up my fuel cell...not bad for 100$

i took it all apart last night after getting home (pics to come) so i can start sanding some rust off the bottom (looks like some water / fuel was spilled but the bladder is still good and in great shape) , then it’s off to powercoat

started working on my manifold the other day, after cutting the 50mm HKS style flange i was left with this



well being that im running a tial 38mm this will not work.
pic of the tial



i took a peace of 2" ss tubing i had laying around and started working on getting it to fit









tacked in place



welded and blended one side to see what it would look like





over all pic



inside as of now (will get blended after welding it all the way)

[AZSCsideways]

few new things, started getting the motor ready for mock up drop in



did a little mod to the plates that hold the injectors in

Before:


mill time:



After:


on the rail:





Well Thursday at work I drank this...



Then that made me do this...





Got home and did this



Result of that...

[AZSCsideways]

this was a repost...if mod or admin could delete that would be nice

[AZSCsideways]

Messed with a little bit Friday but wasn’t feeling well didn’t get much done...

On Saturday I woke to the FedEx man dropping some stuff off...


Hardware to install everything


More downpipe work...

[AZSCsideways]

[AZSCsideways]

well last week I worked on this thing for a bit, I found out that the broken motor mount that was on the driver side was stuck on...by stuck on i mean who ever last attempted to get this mount off was either A) a F$%king retart...or...B ) was not thinking at all because the nut that holds the mount was 100% rounded...one would think if you started to strip the nut one would stop and rethink...no they just kept going...needless to say it still needed to come off so I busted out the plasma cutter...


suck on that! lol






down pipe clears...guess I’m either lucky or just dam good

As of two days ago i started seriously contemplating swapping a 1Jz in my s13 instead of starting work on my sr.... your car is gonna a beastttt

[AZSCsideways]

well busted out my subframe bushings on Friday after work...progress has been really slow lately (due to mother passing and other things) but work is picking back up...

took about 4hrs of work total (pulling car out, putting car away, cleaning / putting tools away) dont think it was too bad for my first time

Awesome build so far! Subscribed.

[Imarvin240]

I wish I had access to some of the tools you do! Great job so far.

[AZSCsideways]

so little update on whats been going on

my diff is about 95% done,everything was cleaned in solvent and i used some assembly lube on my bearings on assembly.









the cover has a big crack in it due to helping a buddy out when his diff blew up, and me giving him my good cover. i will try to weld it up but if worst comes to worst i get a new one.




it has been sand blasted sense these pictures.




so i was going to buy a ASD hydro E-brake but i decided to make my own...im a machinist buy trade so why the hell not try it



master i got, same one ASD uses


my solidworks assembly of what im building, its at 1.88lbs as of right now.
