Tofu Delivery Vehicle for The 21st Century
Couldn't get enough of these things since I first saw one so I ended up picking one up back in October. It's kind of slow but I don't really care since it's a nice change of pace from the old rusty shitboxes I'm used to owning, and still really fun to drive. Since parts have started to come in I figured I'd make a "build" thread.
Also got some psm coils and camber arms for more low along with some regamasters, because regamasters are always the right choice. Also put my cobra imola bucket seat in. Not sure what else I want to do this year except drive it as much as I can and do as many events as possible It was pretty warm the past few days so I ended up slapping on my coilovers, camber arms, and subframe/diff bushings. Had to grind my studs down a bit since they stuck past the adapters but I think it was worth it. Ordered a UEL header since it'll net me a few extra squirrels and cool sounds, and OFT so I can flash it for e85. Probably the only way to break 200whp without boost atm for cheap. Hopefully it'll be here for the Clubloose 2 event at Pittrace on the 13th, should be fun either way. |

You're right. Regamasters are always the right decision.
Jealous! The best I could find was a thread in the UK from a year ago offering to ship. No clue how to track those bad boys down so I'm going with Klutch's w/ a dish. I'll always love that look though, well done.

Rear: 17x9 +38 with a 15mm adapter 225/45/17 dz101 Rear fitment is spot on at -1.5. Front is at -3 and still has some room. Probably could've gone with a 25mm adapter but it doesn't bother me. OFT came in. Ended up changing my mind and ordered a nameless header with their 3 inch downpipe. Only issue I'm having right now is I'm getting some kind of popping sound coming from the rear. Too loud to be the rear deck and only happens at low speeds and its not the typical pillowball drama sound. Everything was triple checked to make sure it was tight, sway bar isn't at a weird angle with the car on the ground. Sounds like somethings binding then releasing. |
