R-X-R: Haha nope, rims aren't rented, all of them have been owned. I was also surprised how much smoke I got with 65psi in the rears.

slowgxl: I have done that and it did help a bit, but it just doesn't lock as well as my buddies 240.

Something a buddy and I will be working on hopefully soon.

Dang man i'm loving the video...now i want to see a video of it drifting. Also that sucks dude...maybe some new pad and rotors? If not ask jtp he used a stock ebrake on his green drift car he'll know whats up.

P.S. your car is my motivation....stock s4 right now but going to be slamed on 18's real soon.

when pulling the ebrake do you tap you foot brake or just pull the ebrake

Give it a TII swap with a good sized turbo and this will be a scale of epic equal to chernobyl and the moon landing.

nice job with the car overall, but dude, i have to single out post 64. that illustrative post on rebuilding the differential was righteous.

JTP swears that the stock handbrake cable is good enough, but I've adjusted mine and tried to lock it and failed.

I actually saw him at the event, should've asked him, ohh well next time. And when you go 18s, make sure you go with a 35 series tire for the front. 40 series is too much on 18s if you want to be slammed.


A buddy of mine (UMWorks) does videography and he wanted to shoot my car, again.


I got a nice fat pay check and was ready to pull the trigger, but fall semester is coming up soon. Need to save more monies which gives me more time to learn the car.

Glad you liked it, hopefully people find it very useful. It was hard taking pics with greasy/oil covered hands haha.

LOL. So true!

Someone suggested that my cable is worn out and keeps stretching out more and more. I guess I'll look into that before I get new pads, the ones on my car are still fresh.

u push the clutch in when you pull the ebrake right? it wont do much if the drivetrain is engaged . Looks sick btw.. that video got me excited . ugh i need to finish my rebuild and get mine back on the road, Im jealous hahaha

_Mac_

iTrader: (9)

Clutch is definitely in, it locks great when I'm running 205 on the my 15" stockies. But it just won't lock with my 225 on 17s. Maybe I just need to flick the car harder. But yah my buddy finished the teaser and sent it to me to look at for the first time, even I got excited haha. Need to add a few things before we do the final video.

Tyler [S5 FC]

I agree with that statement. I think my first two drift events I used my e-brake. But honestly, i haven't used it at all this season. Although I haven't been fortunate enough to be on a track (just stupid *** parking lot events) but I mainly just flick the car and clutch kick. And all my friends do the same. Only time I use my e-brake is when i'm in the mountains and go around hairpins. Especially since you're na, you'll scrub to much speed using the ebrake. And when we have third gear corners, I just flick the car and floor it, it's the only way I can carry enough speed to last through the corner... and I'm turbo. Although I am completely stock and only pushing 4 psi.

God I love this car. Makes me want a kit so badly.

damn... your car is looking very VERY clean... mad props dude...

each time i see your car you seem to take a **** on mine! hahahaha

_Mac_

iTrader: (9)

Tyler: I think you're right, I just need more flick and less e-brake. Using e-brake is my "comfort zone" so I tend to use it alot. Needa step away from it and try something else.

JC: Haha not even, glad you decided to put that lip on your car. Those rolling shots of your car I saw a while ago were siiick!


For those of you that were interested...I'm selling my G35 Rear Mudguards. Hit me up if you want them!

iTrader: (16)

Damn, and I just got a set if mud gaurds too. A quick mock up reveals that they will need to be modified to fit, care to share?

_Mac_

iTrader: (9)

^I drilled a small hole and used a small screw to hold the rear part of the mudguard to the bumper. You can sorta see it in the pic below. Once finished and installed please do share pics!^

Hypertek

iTrader: (3)

since your selling them, care to say what you got now? I liked that look with the mud flaps instead of rear aftermarket bumper.. aftermarket bumpers can be parachutes back there.

sharingan 19

iTrader: (16)

^^^ Agreed. The list of aftermarket bumpers that look good is a short one. Hopefully its a diffuser...*crosses fingers*

_Mac_

iTrader: (9)

Well it was between a diffuser or a gp sports rear bumper. I found a good deal on bumper so I decided to just go gp sports rear. It's not as aggressive as other rear bumpers out there so I think it'll be fine for now. Pics later today I think...

you gonna cut it to mount to your s4 bumper?

rarson

That is an awesome picture. Your car is sweet!

iTrader: (9)

Hyper: nah, as much as I like being s4. It's time to go s5, bumper selection is so much nicer with s5.

Rarson: thanks! Appreciate it!
