Female racer/drifter :D
Hi! I'm Brandella and I LOVE Mazdas and racing/drifting! I bought a fc from my friend to build for race car, I ended up wanting to turn it into a drift car as of now. I already pulled the [carbon locked] na engine, tranny, drive shaft, [totally rusted] exhaust, gutted the interior, and I'm about to pull the diff to weld it. I wanted to put a rew in it but I kept reading that it was a huge pain to put it into a s4 chassis /= Then decided on a s5 t2 
I just need to find an engine now. I'll post pictures later, I've been more concentrated on the build than documenting it right now =P

What side of TN are you located on? I just picked up a 12a FB to start restoring, and I'm getting ready to pull the short block (1st time in a long while & 1st by myself). It would be awesome to get some subject matter expert help from time to time.

Thanks for the support guys!!
To answer some questions, I am located in West Knoxville.
I am one of the main coordinators of east10drift and the only female (As far as I know) in the whole east tn drifting scene.
Here's the story on my 7:
I bought a '87 FC from my friend, who said the engine was carbon locked, but I put little to no effort into making it turn because I had bigger plans for it (:
I pulled the engine, trans, dshaft, diff, subframe, hubs, suspension, etc lol It was literally a shell on four jack stands. Gutted the entire interior too.
I drove over 6 hours east to buy a t2 motor, trans and dshaft.
Later then drove 2 hours south to buy a t2 lsd, 5 lug and t2 brakes.
In the span of about 3 days me (and a few amazing friends) put the engine, trans, dshaft, lsd, 5 lug, brakes, suspension, wheels, mazdaspeed seats in.
I was attempting to get her ready for the drift event we had Saturday, but a fuel problem got in the way and she had to sit this event out. ): I have ordered some injector connectors and hoses, so I hope she'll be up and running soon!
Sorry for the delay on the reply guys, I've been crazy busy with this build!
Rotaryyyyy Pooowwweerrr soon!
