RPF1's fit so good.




Pushing way too hard after i straightened anyways. bent the rear lateral rod as always, but i've become so familiar with repairing it that it took literally a minute, and i was back out on course.

i feel it's better to crash trying to progress, than to be scared and shooter line into ****.

 

anyone know where we can see a qual. rank and who got their license?

 

i have no idea... i've been waiting. were you looking for anyone in particular? i remember some names of the dudes who got licenses. they only gave out 8 i believe.

i qual'd 9th. i believe there were only like 32/33 drivers total. most of which smashed in practice.

 

just wondering where brandon witnik wound up.

local guy, therefore he is a rival

 

oh brandon is actually a friend of mine. i was rooting for him.

his couplers kept blowing off during practice/qualifying, and he didnt get to throw down a qualifying pass due to it.... it sucks.
he was killing it.

 

Yeah he is a cool guy. Sucks about the turbo stuff. He seems to always have reliability problems

 

Nice job cheesin it up.

 

hahaha that was a series of 50 pictures.... lol the first 49 were of me flipping off the camera and grabbing ebrake all scared lol.

i'm camera shy.

XDC practice.

not really any updates. my car is immensely battled, no sideskirts, no bumpers, mix-matched tail-lights. i've been drifting into walls, barriers, and dirt-offroading adventures since i no longer have use for it. surprisingly i've learned more this passed week of it being a missile car then i have all year.

the only thing planned for next year really is to save up enough money from now until january to start on the fresh chassis, and figure out what motor swap im going with..
i really want to hold true to my roots, and the car, and keep it rotary. i'm leaning towards an RE-W core, but am heavily surrounded by people pushing me to do the SR, or JZ swap....
it's about 80% chance its getting the 3rd gen motor, with power FC, and a 30-35r.
next year i just want to have a nice car, and when people hate on my driving, i know its on me, and not on my shitty *** car with no camber plates, and 240hp holding me back.

it would be sick to have power, and angle, and actually be able to have traction at the same time, and not compromise it for the illusion of power as i have been doing all year....

 

That's the dues you pay, buddy...

Good you're getting out there...

Give em hell.

 

Why not just rock a 3rd gen?

 

because 3rd gens are still expensive for poor schmuks like us?

also i would look into the 13b-re.. larger ports than the rew. cheaper than the rew. talk to turbo2rotor for more info since he has one in his car.

 

they do look sick and everything, but its not practical for me yet. they have more links you have to buy (which also can bend/break) and for now, im just going to missile out some FC's and hopefully one day get into an FD as a street car or something. the funds just arent there yet.

a friend of mine is running the RE in his vert locally, but have yet to see it run.
there are a lot of blown RE-W cores out here, which would be easy to come up on one. i don't know alot about the RE, so maybe i should check into before getting anything set in stone. i only have the money to throw at this once, so i hope it goes well. lol i've got a few months to save up, and sell my old parts so hopefully positive seat time will be on for 2011.

 

will do forsure. thank you!

 

thankss! its been one hell of a year so far..

 

Here's a 13BRE in my FC... If you should have any questions about setting it up... let me know...

Thanks for the post! i've been looking into them somewhat. my friend has one in his vert but he still hasnt got it wired up yet.... i think he has a 60-1 or something. i do like what ive read so far on the swap, and am really considering it.

 

back when it had one good side to look at. idk where my wheelspacers were when these were taken... it looks like a cadillac.

 

wall grazing every run, and tapping the wall every run consistently. the ride along victims were tripping out.

buy some S5 lights from me, so i can fund doing the LED **** like hypertek.

i modernize them for $100 (materials are $30) you cover shipping both ways.

or i sell them for $200

or give me your good core S5 lights and $100, and i ship you some the same day.

(i can make them however you prefer. open/clean/reseal, and keep all reflectors. only removed the tail deflectors, or remove all.)

i'm stocked up on them, so get some!

dont do it like hyperteks looks cool but too simple lol

im still workin on this

 

damnnnnn thats ridiculous!!

i need some insight to that for my personal car

 

the outer ring will be lit while parking/headlights on
the middle portion will be red as a functional brake light, when the middle lights up the outer ring will turn off.
blinkers will be amber led arrows
reverse lights are blue and red strobes
the outer lens will be clear as well

i havent gone that far yet cause im still trying to finish 2 more rings and the middle portion. but **** will be dope.

 

Just a thought from looking at the pics from the events you've been to. It looks like you lose a decent amount of tail lights. Wouldn't it be wise to go with a cheap and easy option as opposed to custom LED tail lights?
