I love this car! Keep up the good work.

[jollyroger927]

Heres what I have done in the off season:
- S14 T28, 16 PSI, Power FC tuned to 265 hp 260 tq
- Z32 MAF
- 550cc injectors
- DOC RACE bottom mount manifold with TiAL 38mm wastegate
- Authentic BN type 2 skirts (need the rest, HELP)
- Ganadors acquired
- Fixed front end, replaced rad support with a oem replacement
- Replaced transmission I blew
- Powered by max coils installed 12k 10k springs

Waiting on front end parts from Japan (dmax and origin) then its off to paint.

Club Loose Opening Moves was awesome! Some pics from the event:

Slowly been putting the car together as parts arrive, getting ready for paint. Still trying to get a few events in where I can. East Coast Bash was awesome.









Dmax hood is on, Ganadors are wired up, Origin fenders are fitted. Dmax roof wing is here too, might put it on before paint just to see how it looks. BN Sports type 3 front and rear are on their way thanks to Streeter. Hopefully paint will be soon!

In an endless attempt to make this car more street friendly, I recently installed some OEM engine mounts and got rid of the harsh Megan Racing ones i had in there, really made a difference in the comfort department. I love driving this car.

You guys were killing it at ECB! I think I got some footage of you. I'll post them up here if I do.

Thanks man!!! That would be sweet

Been trying to get this car ready for paint. Got my BN type 3 front bumper in from Streeter, glassed it together and its ready for paint. Now working on the side skirts to get them looking a bit better. Had a rear bumper coming in too but BN sent type 4 by accident. Thats not gonna work so im gonna go with a replica rear bumper. Not too upset since my rear bumper is always the one piece of aero that gets destroyed the fastest anyway.

Did a Club Loose Friday event and my axle spacer hardware blew apart again (happens often), destroying another axle boot. im done with the spacers, until someone actually makes them with right size (tapered) hardware. My car also isn't tucking rim anymore in the rear so I dont think they are necessary. Wont know till i rip another boot/break axle.

Also not sure if i want to run metal fenders up front or stick with these 20mm origins. Wish I never did rear overs....*sigh*

Had a mid build crisis and bought 18" blitz 03s, hope i dont hate stagger because final bout is in 4 weeks and I dont have time to mess up.

[ZenkiDeven19]

I have a staggered setup, I like it. I haven't really tried a square wheel setup though.

Im thinking it will work out, almost did 18" all around but I wanted to have the option to use 17" spares and have it look ok.

[jollyroger927]

Well the car is coming together, painted and ready for Final Bout. Waiting on a black Zeta 2 I ordered and a Nardi classic 340mm. Also waiting on my Blitz 03's to be back from powdercoat, white wheels look so good on this color im nervous to see silver. Hopefully they look great. Im loving the Cerberus spares i picked up. Glad I went with 17/18








17"s work too which makes everything easier also.

The color in the sun is crazy, ill try to get a good picture soon.

[christforeman]

Gawd i normally don't like hatches, excited to see this at final bout!

[Reece]

Excited to see the paint in person.

[jollyroger927]

[TurboTiger]

Such a cool car. Sounds cliche, but it's awesome to see it being driven so hard also. Keep it up!

Thank you!

Some pics from first class fitment this weekend.

[jollyroger927]

Wow didnt realize its been a year since my last post. I suck at this.

Well the car has only gone pretty much down hill from that point but i'll still share some pics from the last year.

As far as future plans go, im going to start collecting type x aero. whether or not I use it on this chassis im not sure yet but I have to give it a shot. I dont think i'll be a fan of it with my overfenders but i want to try it out anyway and if I dont like it, i will rock BN type 3 till I get a chassis with metal quarters.

Other future plans include a KP hood, fixing all the exterior damage, replace aero with a new type 3 kit I have in the garage, create some type of bumper diffuser/protector, possibly install some 180sx seatbelts with B pillar plastics (if i can make it work with my cage), new catback, and other little things here and there.

My engine setup is relatively the same as its been for a while now, still a stock SR20 but I now have a S15 Spec r turbo on it pushing 280whp. Apexi power fc, deatschwerks 550cc injectors, walbro pump, Tial external setup on a stock manifold. Might ditch that and go internal for next year still not sure. Other than burning more oil than id like the engine runs great and has 158psi compression across the board. I plan on installing a boost controller of some kind to run high and low settings.

Anyway here is a picture dump of some of my favorites from the last year.

pretty rad...

[CamryOnBronze]

Thanks man, we had a pretty shitty event driving wise but it was still fun to be there, track is awesome.

[jollyroger927]

Update:

Almost been a year again.. But I didnt freshen up the car over the winter so i am preparing to do that now before Final Bout. So i figured id update this with a "before" shot of my car to compare it to and to motivate myself to get it done asap. A few great events have happened this year already, the Low Styles event and of course Clubloose East Coast Bash.

As far as changes made...

- Fujitsubo Power Getter cat back
- New BN Sports type 3 front bumper
- Front splitter/bumper protector
- 10k/8k Springs installed currently...thinking about going stance coilovers, still not happy
- KP Hood <3
- Greddy FMIC kit
- Z32 Front brakes with slotted rotors
- New front main seal, old one was leaking everywhere
- Upgraded to the better Cusco air/oil separator from the normal can style
- In the process of going back to internal gate and acquiring a good sounding japanese bottom mount manifold (welcome to some suggestions!) thinking of supermade or altrack?

Im trying to make this thing a bit more quiet for a couple reasons. The first being that i street drive this car and drift it often so the quieter the better. Another reason is that hour long (or longer) car rides with that drone is starting to get to my ears...they are ringing when i get home lol. The screamer pipe just gets old after awhile too. Its cool on some cars but i want to actually hear my SR. I will miss it on the track however. The final reason is that i want to run a cool manifold!

Still have a turbo timer and brand new Greddy boost controller sitting here i have to install sometime...

Here are some pics, last one was taken tonight before i backed it into the garage to start taking it apart tomorrow.

[kinkrider87]

altrack manifolds are worth every penny.

Good to hear, if you have any info or sound clips of them send em my way!

Probably the route im going to go. I know they have two different types but one is pretty far out of my price range so ill probably get the basic one.

Hey neat car
