after wall contact, no level of beating, bending, mending, or pulling makes it line up 100% straight again. Just get it the best you can and make it work. Learn from mistakes and just keep drifting!

My newest sponsor Smashed Clothing came through with the new goods. DMAX D1 spec hood. Theyre having a huge aero blowout sale! Hit them up for the deals on their facebook page. Smashed Usa or find them on IG @smashedusa or by tag #getsmashed
http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos...77429734_n.jpg Really hoping the new turbo will be here by next weekend. I opted to go with the Garrett GTX3582r with a T4 1.06 hotside. Definitely going to be moving some air and so looking forward to being back with another reliable Garrett Turbocharger setup. |
What did you use for hood spacers? or did you go ghetto and use washers?
|
I hate raised hoods.

The new hood is fresh but I will agree with him on the spacers the hood is already shaped to vent so you don't need them since its a lifted hood already the spacers make it a lol too lifted bro just my opinion.

Function over form |
Well spoken
|
my new turbo mani sets the turbo so high.... now the piping is super tall and no matter how many pie cuts or bends/angles i use, it keeps the hood from sitting flush. im cutting the inner frame out the hood and gonna have to space it
|
I just had to poke at you a Lil cause you came up on a dope hood lol yes function over fashion my under hood clearance is insane close with my vmount+hood drop vented the turbo hot pipe the fd alt and strut bar I made I have cut many places on the inner layer and its also tilted. Btw that whole duraflex bn kit and msport wide fenders fit like total garbage deformed pre chipped and cracked everywhere had to use the heatgun a lot.

Building another car on the side from leftover parts and supplies.
Here's a pic since red cars been awesome and not costing me $$ http://photos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos...20459154_n.jpg |
Thinking of selling my Works. Want dish wheels bad. Anyone down for trade?
Pics for sake of keeping this on page 1. https://photos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...38226175_n.jpg https://fbcdn-photos-d-a.akamaihd.ne...21095319_n.jpg |
I think its about time buckey lets everyone know he is switching to the dark side of the engine bay..... After countless forums i have seen of him bashing anything other then a rotary in these cars he decides to switch.
|
Him going V8 is the best choice he has ever made. Not to hate on the rotary but if he wants to drift and drift consistently, a reliable motor is going to help him greatly.

Why not all the cool kids are doin it!

I'm gay. I went with an ls2. Andrew redward is blowing my mind with his awesome driving. JTP is swearing that a v8 fc is the only way to make it into top contention in FD these days.
Fresh falkens https://photos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...85550730_n.jpg And the money shot https://fbcdn-photos-c-a.akamaihd.ne...20573819_n.jpg Remember though.... I have 2 FC's.. |
Best of luck to you no matter what engine setup you're running, you're still representing the FC chassis. It is kind of hard to argue with what Redward is throwing down anyways...
|
I dont blame you going v8. Realistically that is the easiest way to keep up if you ever want to go do formula d. Although Jeremy Lowe seems to be doing a fine job of keeping up with these crazy fast v8 cars. Its hard but not impossible. How much did you pay for that ls2 if you dont mind me asking cause it does look to be in pretty good shape? How many miles?
