Our team built it live in X-treme Car Show held in Helsinki this weekend. They built the car saturday from 10am to 7pm and sunday from 10am to 6pm. In this time car was stripped all out, they installed V-mount on it, changed the exhaust, installed coil-overs, hydraulic e-brake, M-sports wide bodykit and D-max style hood, additional carbon splitters front and side, APR Performance GTC500 wing, smoked tail lights, new wheels, bucket seats, 4-point harnesses, Xbox console and some in car electronics. It also got decals on it and one local pinstriper made his personalizing for it as well as Big Dane from West Coast Customs put his autograph on the dashboard.

Main sponsor was EA Games with Need For Speed Prostreet game. Other sponsors were Osram, Ground Dynamics, D2, Fuel Wheels, APR Performance, MDS audio and 3M.

hurleysurf24 10-08-07 01:01 PM

must be nice :( sighhhhh

DriftRX7 10-08-07 01:07 PM

Here is one underhood pic. There was one camera man filming our team througout both days so we'll have some building up videos of it. It will also be presented in X-treme DVD released near christmas.

For the engine we will be making a full build up during winter and the car is going to be competed in Finnish and nordic drifting series next season.

Thats actually pretty cool, considering I work for EA as the lead vehicle artist for Pro Street :) I had no idea that we were sponsoring that even. Too bad we don't have an FC in the game, only the FD and RX8..

Wow! That's cool! I know that there is only FD's on Pro Street but I didn't have any proper FD on garage for this :) But you can keep this somewhat "inspired" by Pro Street trailers etc. And ofcourse you can make some patches or updates to include this FC on the later version ;)

Finland is such a small country that you don't have to be alarmed not knowing about our little sponsorship :)

FuStEr 10-10-07 12:13 AM

car look great

metal 10-10-07 04:39 AM

I can't be the only one that thinks it looks ugly as sin?

platinumpresto 10-11-07 09:52 PM

***** - 5 stars

so now u have a drift rx7 and a drift silva, eh?

Shainiac 10-11-07 11:41 PM

Random question, but what kind of wheels are on the car BEFORE all the work was done? Nothing showy, but they look clean on a stock body car.

13b_cookie_monster 10-12-07 01:11 AM

they look like s14 wheels off a 240sx

Rotary_Knight 10-12-07 01:42 AM

props on the crazy wing

dwb87 10-12-07 01:49 AM

I like it... it's not normally my style but I think it officially looks like a drfit/race car~ Great job.

Thanks! We are building a second one with similar looks for next year also so plans are to compete with two of those in Nordic Drifting Series season 2008. Hope to see you on the track also with your own FC!

Silvia is already sold. It was a D1SL car competed in Japan and it was really great drifter. Now we are making even better drifter from this FC, atleast I hope so :)

They are some Work wheels but can't say the specific model. Without center hubs they look almost like Meister, but I'm not sure how long they have hade Meisters.. They are some 15*6,5" (or 7") and are really decent in weight.

Everybody just canīt like it. I respect your opinion, but we were building a race car which has to stand up so that our sponsors can get the coverage they are paying for. For a daily driver I would also have a full white one with some modest bodykit and golden spokes wheels with some good lip. Nothing more, nothing less. But in the other hand, this car is everything BUT a daily driver and so it should be.

platinumpresto 10-13-07 11:03 AM

...and whats up with the other cars in the background?? like the blue fortune rx7

As I told, we built the car in a car show so there is show cars all around our area. That Fortune RX is made and owned by Lukas Kooz who is famous tuner from sweden.

Here is built up pics to his project: http://www.kooz.se/My_Carz_Zlayer_Exterior.htm

1st7 10-13-07 12:20 PM

platinumpresto 10-13-07 12:21 PM

ahh, kooz is very creative but every one of his cars are for pure show...

That's actually APR GTC500. I've always said that wing cannot be to big but with that one we are pretty close of that line :) The wing is 177,5cm wide so it's almost 10cm wider than the car is when stock :D

ajhehr 10-16-07 12:50 PM

cool...so do you want to sell me your apr gtc500 wing?

TruStylez 10-18-07 11:27 PM

are those the jdm taillights?

DriftRX7 10-19-07 12:18 AM

It's a JDM car so yes, they are JDM tails :)

ajhehr, I'm few thousand miles out of the states so it's easier for you to buy APR wing from somewhere closer you.

DriftRX7 11-07-07 04:43 PM

The car was on EA's stand on DigiExpo (consumer electronics show) last weekend. Here's one pic.

javi174 11-08-07 07:38 AM

Wow!

Rctcrrat 11-08-07 11:11 AM

Nice job!

NJGreenBudd 11-08-07 11:18 PM

thats a pretty drastic transformation but it looks mostly like stickers and a gian wing....I was looking for pics of nice FC's to add to my collection but I'm gonna pass on this one.

DriftRX7 11-09-07 11:06 AM

The last pic dropped out, here it is again.

GreatShamanGT 11-10-07 09:27 PM

matthelle 11-13-07 08:49 PM

wow, total transformation!

AmviciousRav 11-13-07 08:54 PM

what kind of v mount kit did yall use?

MazdaMike02 11-15-07 12:19 PM

Not diggin the vinyls or rims...plus the spoiler is massive.

Offtopic but NFS would be 100x better if it had real bodykits not ricey ugly kits for the majority of cars exactly like in NFS Carbon.

cfsfc 11-22-07 08:45 PM

thats sad to see such a beatiful car ripped up like that all that money and you couldnt have fixed a hurt 7

1st7 11-23-07 12:51 AM
