Oregon FC Project
I'm a little late on starting a thread but better late then never.
1988 turboII building for as much track time as possible, Grip and drift. |
So far the main focus has been on chassis of course.
Instantly stripped interior, then dry iced all the sound deadening, and found some straight s5 doors to replace the damaged original doors. Threw on racing beat front sway bar and tein coilovers on it. Then shortly after began prepping for the rollcage. |
where is the project?
|
spare knuckles
I've got some spare stock knuckles off an 88 reasonably cheap PM me.

And! My sponsors Forged performance just finish the new manifold that they are setting me up with. I am so happy with it. I have worked with many other manifolds and by far I like this one the most.
Also easily bolts from either Fc or Fd, though it was built for a bridgeport Fd. |
doesnt look like a typical drift fc build
but it looks great. keep it coming. |
nice build.
that turbo mani. looks sweet:nod: oregon love! |
Looks pretty good.
Is it me or are your door bars a little high though? I guess they are where they need to be. Just looks like you'll have to Dukes of Hazard your way into the car. |
What Teins are you running?

Dang!
I like the wastegate location on that manifold, any plans for a twin gate version? |
What were the goals with the exhaust mani. set up like that?
I've found that large, short runner manis are better for reaching boost threshold, and paired with a large port wastegate, you can run a responsive turbo, and bleed off the extra exhaust flow when in boost. I know there's less room in FD's for strut tower clearance, but more clearance with the LIM... is this a compromise design? Are they going for high RPM(like over 10000) with a turbo setup? Not hating, just wanted to hear if you have other objectives... |

how do you put the windows up and down?
The door bars bow out for more elbow room. Very spacious |
