CA 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!!





(only two shots I've taken)

1989 TurboII!!

ENGINE
11k on rebuild (MazdaTrix)
Haltech e8 EMS
T4 Turbo
Tial Waste Gate
HKS SSQ Blow Off Valve
Custom Aluminum V-Mount Set Up (Intercooler/Radiator)
Full Size Oil Cooler
RC 550 (Primary) 750 (Secondary)
Catless Down Pipe
Racing Beat Catback

SUSPENSION
Apexi PRO CoilOvers w/ Front Camber Plates
Racing Beat Rear Camber Arm
MazdaSpeed Front Sway Bar
Energy Hyperflex Bushing System

EXTERIOR/INTERIOR
Freshly Painted a Dark RootBeer Pearl
Shine Auto Front Lip
OEM Window Visors
ARC Blue Burnt Titanium Shift ****
Japanese Boss Hub
MOMO Wheel

WHEELS
17X8 Front /9 Rear
Super Advan Racing Wheels
(HAZ center caps, lock nuts & key )

And other jazz I'm probably forgetting

I got the car how it sits with the exception of the Wheels and Shift ****, 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..


-Roger

Thank you all, I really like it..

I have a 93 Civic Hatchback "EG" that I've owned for almost 6 years, I got it stock.. and I've made it into what it is myself for the most part.. I'm really proud of my civic.. I have a YouTube Chanel that I upload event footage into too..

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 *** once you get it dialed in right

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

Thank you all
