Street/Rally Build
I figured I'd start a car journal although progress will be extremely slow as my priorities aren't car first everything else later and I don't have a lot of disposable income for car related items.
I plan to go a different route then what i see a lot of people on the forums go in that I'm going to do more of a rally-esc build instead of the standard big wheels rubber band tires turbo stuff. Plan's below and I'm always looking for suggestions as to better products/ideas. Feedback, positive or negative, is always appreciated. Current Crap: Takeda AFE intake KTM X-Bow shift knob Plans: Revert to stock intake w/ aftermarket filter (most likely Cosworth) Sparco Terra's (16x7) Continental 255/55R16 Exhaust Random Bracing Lights! F1 style bottom reverse/brake conversion Turbo/supercharger may come later on down the road but i've been contemplating buying a 1JZ TT for a swap and building it until my warranty runs out then swapping |

Nice!
I'm going to be out RallyCrossing my FR-S this weekend, unless Mother Nature dumps too much rain on our parade and forces the site owners and the event organizers to postpone/cancel things. If the event goes off this weekend as planned I'll have a big update in my build journal, feel free to check it out!

if you're planning on going 1JZ, do yourself a favor and plan on using a JZX100 VVTi motor instead of the old twin turbo non-vvti motors. Also, no need to build it... Tomei Poncams, Tomei ARMS turbo or a Kinugawa/Kamak will get you plenty of power on a stockish motor.
Obviously these are far off plans, but just some food for thought. |
