Akagi White Comet
I am pretty sure this has been done before but... Has any1 seen a Replica of Ry's FC? I only ask cause I plan on making one myself. I am trying to find all the Decals on his car but I can make them out. I tried searching the web but I still can't find it. If any1 knows of a Replica of this car please PM me.
IF YOU DON'T LIKE INITIAL_D THEN PLEASE DON'T POST IN THIS THREAD SAYING HOW GAY THIS IS. |
DUDE I love initial D!!!
And I sawed a replica chillin in L.A...... Pasadena/Azusa area. Maybe they went to Azusa Pacific University? It looked pretty clean. |
Why the hell is Ry?
There's like 100 people who have replica's of Ryosuke's FC... but there are two versions, the manga version with stickers from real companies, and the anime with a bunch of made up crap (albeit they're easier to find). |
Search this section for the pictures. Tons around here.
|
well i got the toy model and on the model it says in this order
Highway Star(yellow) EXPRESS( white box in blue box) SHIFT DOWN( normal black letters) Power Max (bold letters) MAX SPEED ( red small leter on molding) |
|
I've always hated those wheels. Don't do it. You'll get made fun of.
|
Watanabes are sexy.
http://a479.ac-images.myspacecdn.com...5e09a48746.jpg You call that getting made fun of? This isn't my car by the way. Just know the guy who owns it. |
Watanabes were not the only wheels seen on the FC from Initial D either. You can see that the car switches wheels between the stages.
From what I remember the FC has: Work Meister/SSR SP1 in 1st Stage Watanabe RS8 in 2nd/3rd Stage Mazdaspeed MS01 in 4th Stage |

Is there any Specific Body kits or anything that I should know of? To the best of my knowledge Ry has a Stock body on his FC. But I could be wrong. I didn't think I would get such a huge response so quickly. Is it a Pearl white or White or White and silver blend?

It's and S5 TII. Stock Body. Odula/FEED Front lip Lip. Not sure of the paint any white would do well. I believe Ryousukes FC puts down about 280hp

I was about to ask the HP numbers I was told 185-200 but I am not sure. I don't think he used a Turbo. He just maintained his car really really well and made adjustments when necessary.

The stock S5 turbocharger could never reach 350 hp by any means. |

Nah the engine is modified. According to the serie, his FC was outputing around 350hp for uphill/downhill but was detuned to around 280hp to reduce turbo lag and make the car easier to drive for his battle against Akina 86.

I am going to shoot for 280 anything higher than that is great. I don't want to run a Turbo is I don't have to though. From what I have Turbos= More problems

You can't make 200 on an n/a with out an extreme port job. Which'll cost you the same if not more than a turbo.

Ry's car is not a TURBO II, there are no TURBO II in Japan, there is only INFINI, GTU, GTX, GT-LIMITED , GTR. And all have savanna stickers on them.
Oh and his car is right hand drive. |
T2
------ -stock drive train is good to go - easy to make power( exhaust, porting street port? , turbo , intercooler, stand alone ecu, higher flow injectors, etc) - Cost you alot but worth it. - would not recommend as a daily, unless completely stock and running on stock boost and 87 octane. N/A ----- -anything pass 200hp in the motor will slow tear apart and break down the tranny and rear end. It can't with stand the power - in my view its not worth investing if its not within your power goals - good daily if maintained. okay mileage in the city and good on the freeway. BOTTOM LINE - you can make a show Ry car but if you want to make a Ry show and go FC GO TURBO! |

why do you want to go through all of this?
This is like a stupid tattoo, in a couple years you will look back at it and wish you had kept your mouth shut and saved your money. Do you even own an FC at the moment? |
You can make 280hp NA with some insane porting, but it will hardly be streetable.

a turbo woth suporting mods nothing major though exhast intake. etc would be tyhe best way to make power cheap.
just make sure to have the decals actualy be removable stickers so later on if you are tired of it you can remove them and have a clean white FC. |
Turbo would be the way to go if you wanna stay close to the original.

He only needs a white stock body Turbo S5 with a lip, suspension and nice wheels....and maybe re amemiya mirrors. Then it would look like it. http://streetknights.sakura.ne.jp/me...ff05052129.jpg If you don''t like Initial D cars, you don't like clean decent styled cars with functional mods :scratch: In 4th stage, ryosuke has no stickers anymore BTW. But about the watanabe wheels,...I think wheels like mazdaspeed ms01 look better on FC's, and ryosuke has 5 spoke wheels like the ms01 on his car most of the time,...not watanabes. I love watanabe wheels,...but they look better on ae86's. And about the 280HP, you can make the power mods later, when you have more clue about fc's and maybe some people who can help you repairing things etc. and ryosukes FC IS a TURBO of course , NA Fc's were never sold in japan....only turbos. Oh and threadstarter, what fc are you getting? I hope not a NA S4 . If so it'll be alot work to make it like the initial d fc. You should buy a S5 Turbo, then it's ALOT easier. |

you'll have alot of swapping to do. don't go and do a crapy job and rush, take your time if your doing it yourself. Learn about all the moving parts in the car , the way things are made, you might find it all intresting. convert everything to a fully funtional T2. |
okay, then you need s5 turbo sideskirts (I'm not sure, but I think the s5 NA skirts are different than S5 turbo skirts) , the front lip, fog lights (if you have none), re amemiya mirrors, stock spoiler (if you don't already have it), wheels, and a Turbo Hood, Then it looks like the ryosuke FC.
But a Turbo hood without a Turbo engine is gay. so get a turbo engine too. You need a suspension too,...ryosuke of course has coilovers,...but you said your car will be a daily driver, so lowering springs + kyb agx or something like that would be better. But there is alot more you can do, DTSS elimanators, new bushings, strut bars, camber plates, rear camber adjuster.......etc. etc. Your car and engine should be in best shape before you start to tune something. |
oh for the love of christ....
children stop degrading yourselves. |

if you wanted the perfect replica you'd have to get a right hand drive which would be turbo'd no matter what, of course his car was turbo'd in the shows its Japanese model, they all were turbo'd... i love it and the replica will be sweet but nothing can beat the real thing... oh and make sure you get the Apex'i N1 exhaust on it

You make a thread in a PUBLIC forum, anyone can post. If you dont like negative comments then dont post in a PUBLIC forum. And how about you not make stupid threads or even post on RX7CLUB UNTIL YOU GET A RX7.

I have a new mission for you, Aniki. Project Grow the Fuck Up. This DIY requires that you only look past your childish desires to be a genius racer with a long face and alien-like eyes, as well as blue hair. It only takes a mere 5 seconds to reconsider such obscene infantilism, and inject some HKS Realism under the hood. Once your obsession over the cheap replica of 80's dance music and broken english dissapates, proceed to add about 3 qts of water to your ECU and wake the fuck up. P.S. Rotaries for life. |
