For sure, thanks for the subscribe! Nice to see people enjoy my build thread.
Updates: Got in touch with the guys from CounterSpace Garage and picked up one of the leftover sets of RPF1s available from the group buy. 17x9 +35 in SBC . I had every intention of waiting and picking up some XD9s or Kiwami's but I've always loved RPF1s but I wanted them in SBC and 17s. The opportunity came up at the right time, so I jumped on it without hesitation. Those should be here sometime in October.Also went to Mt Scott & the refuge this past weekend and took some pictures. These are just a few, I'll post more later. Also, if you want anything in wallpaper size, just PM me which pic and what size you want and I'll send it. ![]() ![]() ![]() Trying to hit up another event in November but we'll see what happens. Just want to get in one more event before the end of the year. Next year though, BIG PLANS. Looking at somewhere around 15 different events between 3-4 states next year It's gonna be busy.Also, updating the first post now along with spec sheet so if you're curious about any parts or setups, just check there.

For some reason I'm not sub'd to your build?! Well I definitely am now. Great looking car. I've been debating getting a set of XXR 527's but in 18" I'm just skeptical about the XXR brand and I've never been a fan of 5x100/114.3 on the same wheel.
But seeing them on your car makes me consider them even more lol. Can't wait to see your updates for next year!

A few more shots from the weekend:
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Getting some LCAs and an alignment soon. Also going to get some 15mm spacers for the front. Running too much camber for the rear (around -2 or so) and I want to get down as close to -1 as possible. Also going to zero out my toe all around. For front camber, I'm looking for somewhere around -2.5 to -3. That's what I ran at the track for the last event and it worked really well.

I hope my raven will look half as good as yours one day dude. How do you like the stance coils? Thinking about those with the lca pack from @ft86speedfactory or pbms

Thanks Love 'em. I'm getting SPC arms. I only need to go from -2 to like -1 for rear camber. SPC arms can do that easy. The Stance arms are legit though. I just don't want to spend that much for arms.

Got some clear side markers a while back. Also got some SPC LCA's. Threw the markers on last weekend and the arms on today. Didn't swap toe link bushings. Managed to get rid of a lot of camber though which is great.
New specs: Front Caster: 5.9 Camber: -3.0 Toe: 0.0 Rear: Camber: -1.3 Toe: 0.07 PS. Enjoy the sticker on the wing ![]() ![]()

Event at Mineral Wells airport in Texas tomorrow. Starts @10am.
Like $5 or $10 to spectate. Drifting is FREE! If you wanna go, bring a helmet to get ride alongs. I'll be there all day testing out the new setup

We had a blast at the event in Mineral Wells on Sunday. Got a bunch of seat time and got to really get a feel for the car with the new alignment setup. The car is amazing now. So much grip, I had to get used to it and drive a bit more aggressively at first. The car goes exactly where you want it to. You can throw the car to full lock and just hold it while steering the car more so with the throttle.
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I'm pretty happy with this year overall. Started with a bone stock car and managed to get it to a really good setup with lots of parts and changes and got 3 events in all within a 5 month span. Only thing I'm upset about is that I'm done for the rest of the season. Prepping the car for next year. Loads of changes: new wheel setup, further suspension changes, steering knuckles etc. 2014 is going to be awesome

Car looks good and drift looks even more good. As for the spc arms, which models did you use? The 'newer' ones is it? Considering to get myself 1 as well

Definitely wanna see how you stance the RPF1's. What tire size you plan on going with them?
