OMG T4 POWERED V-MOUNT 13B FC DRIFT PROJECT!?!? So*Cal
 
Whats going on fellas, just got my hands on my first rotary and think I'm here for the long run.. I come from the FF Honda Road Racing Scene that i track monthly still.. but on the side.. I've had a lot of fun with RWD over steer action!! (8 s13's, an s14, 2 e30's, 2 miatas and an 85 gts corolla hatch) anywho.. I've slid 3 sessions at Adams Track on Thursday Nights in RiverSide, Ca (weekly drift events for only $20!! On to the new Hoop-D!!

WHEELS

And other jazz I'm probably forgetting

I got the car how it sits with the exception of the Wheels and Shift Knob, i believe the car was on tjis forum before and would like to meet its old owner! ( got this from a buddy who knows nothing about it really)

The car starts up but detonates at Neutral PSI and was told it just needs a tune, but before i take it out to dyno tune I want to make sure everything is good to go (engine wise)

I have a lot to learn about rotary but feel like i came to the right place

Let's get this show on the road fellas

Thoughts, Comments and Ideas appreciated..

Got the cae checked out at RRR Tuning and getting it ready for the dyno session soon enough.. needs a bunch of little things

I love those rims do you have the full spec's on the tires? And im new to SoCal didnt know there was a track in Riverside and it affordable!

hardcoreracing 03-09-12 11:16 AM

hello
 
I'm from socal as well and came from the honda world. I'm currently into evos, had 3 evo ixs and one evo x. I've been thinking of purchasing an s13. Any thoughts since you've had 8?

Verysafety 03-09-12 12:18 PM

great car man..love the v-mount!

Darksolboy 03-09-12 03:41 PM

Looks dope

Spitfire8o5 03-09-12 05:58 PM

Thank you, their 17x8.5+35 front with a 225/45 and 17x9.5+35 rear with a 255/40

I was at the track yesterday, tons of fun.. there was a tandem and freestyle tournament.. a lot of formula d ams go

S13s are awesome cars, I love and miss all of my old ones.. great cars to drift but if they arent dridting.. their under steering.. they have horrible front traction.. but they kick ass once you get it dialed in right

V mounts.is where its at!! I really like it too

Thank you all

kryan9 03-10-12 10:32 AM
