The White Ranger - OMG86 Turbo Edition
 
Named the car the White Power Ranger nearly the day before I met Jason David Frank in person in Houston. So it stayed.

Just a quick temporary future mod list that I KNOW I will be getting:

Already have:
Five Axis kit
Five Axis wheels
HID's
Rebadge with Toyota emblems
Turbo
CP forged pistons
Rods
ACT heavy duty clutch
Custom downpipe to make a Magnaflow 2.5" catback turbo-back

Near future:
Lowering Springs

Eventually:
Coilovers (probably, because I drift and it's virtually necessary)
Supporting suspension drift mods

ULTIMATE minimum WHP GOAL = 350whp (achieved)


This car will be mostly factory minus body kit, wheels, turbo, and suspension. Trying to keep it as clean as possible.

How do you like going from the Z to a Fr-S so far?

It's tighter and more controllable but obviously lacking power. Itll be a better drift car once suspension and turbo is installed.

Congratulations man! Your gonna love the Five Axis treatment. Make sure the dealer uses the adhesion promoter. The dealership that installed mine skipped this step and now the whole kit needs a reinstall.

You didn't buy that yellow tC in the background instead? Come on man, that thing's SO SICK! ;)

Alright time to wrap mine in green and give it a golden hood. Like the original green ranger style.
