Way dope!

 

subscribin' hard. this build gets better and better!

 

Hey car looks great.

I had a quick question. I have always been told that the BOV goes on the cold side of the intercooler (which I have done on my cars) and I see you have yours on the hot side. Is that better or does it really not make a difference?

 

it's actually better to have it closer to the turbo as it relieves the pressure in the intake and helps turbo surge.

 

Super subscribed! So stoked to see JTP back in the fc game, looking forward to video footage haha.

 

Yupp definitely gonna keep an eye on this project!.. Btw in your profile pic, are you towing your car with a tow bar?.. Where is it mounted to, I wanna make one for my car if its possible..

 

Yupp definitely gonna keep and eye on this project!.. Btw on your profile pic are you towing your car with a tow bar?.. Where is it mounted to, I wanna make one for my FC as well..

 

yeah flat tow bar attached to my bash bar... everything's concealed with the front bumper on too..

 

got all sick with some rc...





ports pre being matched and cleaned up..



notice the porting nick on this one..



lapping took care of that though..

broken corner seal



all warped..



crush assembly was installed wrong.. causing this... e-shaft and stationary gears are now junk.. fortunately I had a spare set..

 

Damn, and this is the engine you ran at ASB this last year???

 

I need an new RC body for mine, where'd you pick that one up at?

 

Sweet FC. This car or your FD mustang?? I can't decide which is best:

 

yeah, it's amazing it lasted thru the event.. i was fighting it the whole time..

I think RCMart.com

they both have their own use... the mustang is definitely a competition beast.. and I hope to have the FC a street KILLA!

 

Hopefully this year will be yours, just need to stop that monster daigo getting favoured by the judges. What power is the mustang at? Just read in hot rod magazine that JRs is putting down 950+ HP!!, surely yours is somewhere near that?

Hopefully make it out to the states sometime in the future to see FD live rather than on the web.

Have you not fancied trying an EFR turbo??

 

both the mustangs make around 950 at the crank and about 850 to the tires..

I've talk to Borg Warner about running the EFR turbo on a future project.. but I'm gonna keep it OG with the FC.. I've definitely looking forward to running one in the future though!

 

its nice to see you come back around here. i know that a lot of fans started to question things. youve always been a huge part of the rotary and drifting community and cant wait to see the 2013 season

 

I don't think I really went anywhere.. although I've definitely been laying low for some time now... It was hard dealing with the loss of the green car and wanting to stay active in the community... I think I've come to terms with it and feel like its time to make some more FC goodness... so yeah.. I guess it's good to be back.

 

I love you jtp <3

 

here's those pics of the flat tow setup..

 

^thanks bro!... I see how yours is hooked up. I run a greddy fmic so I would def have to make a bash bar!...

 

love it dude!!

 

More info on this BW setup. Car looks amazing. Love the fab work.

 

Im surprised no one has asked , But this is the first time ive ever heard of RA seals warping? I thought those things were supposed to be industructable? I was planning on using them in my rebuild?

 

if you do some searching it's rather common...

 

hi Justin!

I'm getting married soon so no topdrift at least the first half of the season.
let's catch up soon; power / susp is long long overdue on my car.
