View Full Version : Garage Collective S13 drift build

04-04-2014, 10:17 PM
Had a bit of time to post some pics here if you guys are interested to see my new build for this drift season. Last years car kicked the bucket. the shell was rusted out and it was good for learning but time to get into something solid.
My goal for this car is to keep it clean, keep it looking aggressive, and stylish. to me thats mostly what drifting is. Not about huge power, eventually i just want 400 range. Last year the old build dyno'd at 306hp/316tq. My build uses all original authentic parts.
Its in the early stages im falling way behind as the first event is in a week. clearly going to miss that one.
I dont really want to type lots of description for every picture. Im more focused on my instagram and facebook pages. so if you like what you see i encourage you to follow those. as they are up to date and properly sorted.
club/lifestyle brand a friend and i started called Garage Collective.

ok heres some pics. starting from when i drove down to ohio from toronto to grab the shell.

Thanks for the positive vibes so far guys. I'm also excited to see it finished.
Tricky_ab I ended up using pat at cyrious garageworks to do the cage for me since I don't have the proper tools or enough experience . Highly recommended he knows his shit and is a fellow drifter doing his thing so we gotta support eachother right.

Taking out the Tomei 2 way from the s13 diff and going to throw it in an r32 gtst diff i picked up. this is for the final drive gearing. going to run the 4.3 from the 4.08
i think it will put me where i need to be in 3rd gear.

ok so heres the plan for this. ive been held back by lack of a welding machine lol.
but managed to get everything pre fabbed. stuff needs to be trimmed up and cut straight since it was made from scrap. but the bends are ready to go etc.
not sure if ill run those extra little tubes . it might be mostly looks..im sure it will have some strength to but...

ok so i acquired a welder finally from a buddy. this would be my second time trying mig. im new to setting up the machine n what not. and i didnt have material to practice. even if i did im more of the fuck it dive right in type. and thats kind of what i did with the plate on the shock tower. machine wire speed was to fast. so i made a small mess but its not bad i can clean that up easily. I ended up getting it right by slowing it down. so for now its just somewhat tacked to see what it looks like. debating running that extra small tube. I would have to notch it somehow.
I managed to cut the main tube BANG on after multiple cuts. the bends made by my friends shop from the template i made out of copper pipe are perfect. lucky.
my cousin who welds for a living is gonna come by tomorrow and give me a hand to finish up this side. and ill post a better pic when its looking nice.
overall im happy so far.

once i trim the plate on the shock tower smaller. it wont look like its on an angle like in the pics. I know it looks kind of shady right now but it wont stay like this.

04-15-2014, 02:53 PM
Few small things from driftworks came in today. i sold my old DW tension rods so i could buy these. they are offset, hopefully i can go max angle without hitting them.
also they included a small bag of gummy candy? thats new. i wanna eat it but. i dunno..

so i had an issue with the 4.3 final drive swap. I was told if i got an r32 gtst pumpkin all i would have to do is take out my 2 way from my s13 non abs and throw it in the r32 one. turns out the ring gear bolt holes are different. so i would have to machine my 2 way? anyone have experience with this? i noticed the axles are different on each pumpkin. where as one friend i talked to told me how his were the same and he just swapped carriers ?
anyone?
AVmagneticZ
04-25-2014, 02:38 PM
well for now a temp solution is im going to run the diff that came in the r32 and weld it up. not ruining the 2 way. ill keep it on the side until i find the correct gear set that mounts to my 2 way.
who knows i may like the welded diff life better.
anyways just sanding the engine bay on the s13 hoping to go grab some primer and get that done tomorrow.. until further updates heres a shot of the z33 from yesterday

paint prep can blow me. this took way to long lol.
its all sanded, Next step is wash/degrease the engine bay, but its like 0 degrees out here which is bullshit. so im not gonna bother today. tomorrow is going to be nicer.
After that going to build a quick tarp style booth to cover the area, mask everything and spray the primer i got today.
im looking forward to the next picture i post it will look a lot cooler.
also i still dont know what color to go with for the bay. i dont wanna give it away but the outside of the car is going to be dark brown metallic shown in this next pic.

Done the first layers of primer.
I need to decide on a color asap.
Some ok ideas
-Audi Grey (nimbus grey?)
-light pink (I dunno..)
-pastel yellow
-white
It's got to be a light color. maybe i can throw some metallic or sparkly clear coat ontop

a few more pics of the finished engine bay, now we had a few issues.
one the base kept spitting out some shit i dunno if it was sitting for a while but when we strained it lots of thick stuff appeared. some must have gone through the strainer.
two there is a few spots where there must have been some chemical residue and it made the paint basically slide off those tiny areas. so i will have to try n touch up unfortunately one is right on the weld on the shock tower and its big.
this shit is very tedious. all that aside it looks cool and the color came out how i like. we mixed two paints together to get this.
the mid clear we put on looks awesome with the speckles in it.
mind u this was all done on budget and in a rush. inside a garage made booth in 0-10 Celsius.
ive def learned some stuff doing this paint job

ok started today by installing the fuel pump (walbro) and mounting the battery in the trunk.
https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7387/14169257593_0fb807e5a5_b.jpg
after that did some plumbing. new braided fuel lines, routed the lines for the factory brakes inside the car and here you can see where it comes out for the rear. tried to keep it neat. i still have to run the line down for the second calipers in the rear. i have the line all bent and ready to go but i want to make sure it doesnt interfere with anything so im going to install the subframe first. hopefully thats the right move.
https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2914/14149368814_a8ef252f4e_b.jpg
put the Chase bays master back on need to secure the lines in place. put the clutch master back in as well. same thing need to clip the line in place...have to go find some clips.
https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7458/14169257483_ebd0be35e9_b.jpg
next put all the pedals back in and the steering column. then spent a bunch of time cutting up this old dash i had. this way i can just make one or two nice cuts on my finished dash and know i wont fuck it up. im excited to see the interior done its going to look nice.
https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7304/14149209005_36e8b7d8eb_b.jpg
ok now the rear subframe. for the diff im just running and r32 gtst diff with a welded. i was tryingto use my 2 way from the s13 but unfortunatly it doesnt work with the ring gear out of this pumpkin. so this is temporary until i get a 4.3 out of a s13 with ca18det or figure out another way. who knows i might like the welded better.
another thing is the LCA and knuckles. money is tight so i have to run the oem ones for now. which is ok. but i plan on getting the driftworks ones soon. i just need to get this thing drifting, fast.
so here it is assembled ready to be put in ill do that tomorrow.
https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7304/14126017516_b25a983ce6_b.jpg
lastly heres a shot of the dual caliper kit. its the one the george guy sells off of here. not bad i had a fucked up issue with mine where i had to shave the caliper a little as well as an issue with getting one of the caliper bolts in. i made a solution but itll be hell to take off the calipers for the hydro lol. anyways works good i used it last year.

https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7404/13967848399_091d121844_b.jpg
rear sub frame is in so its officially rolling now.. also has the 4 factory brake calipers working as well.

things to do. lower that bitch. check steering. space out crap wheels a bit more until i can afford some baller joints in better sizes. wrap bumpers and mount bumpers. greddy oil pan/ tomei turbo elbow.
completed pics on the way. not far now....but is it ever really completed?

havent updated in a bit. i had a few stupid issues with the car but everything is sorted out its running nice and im going drifting saturday FINALLY. gonna shakedown the car hopefully make it back in one piece.
last week i had to drain the oil so decided i might as well throw this bastid in.
https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2899/14386250606_234ae7cd89_o.jpg
install was relatively easy. hardest part was getting the old pan off. i basically destroyed it but whatever. managed to not gouge the block side and that is key. but i did put to much rtv. now i know. lol.
https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2901/14429551423_be43661665_o.jpg
This is a shot from today. finished up the bumpers and sides. could use a few touch ups on the wrap. the primer on these bumpers is not an ideal base for wrapping over. but it did the job.
mounted the msports canards and origin labs front under canards. to the bn sports front bumper

can you show a pic of how you mounted the lower canards? i have the same ones but looking into options of how to mount.
i basically just positioned one until i thought it looked good. i see some pics online they are all mounted differently. to me it looked best by making the wing part flush with the end of the bumper and keeping it about 1 1/4" away. then pull the front section out so that where the very beginning of the wing starts to form is 2" away from the bumper.
then i just drilled three small holes about 1 1/2" away from the edge of the bumper. took it off drilled them bigger and used 3 small nuts and bolts with lockwashers and washers to hold it on. its on there good. if i get a chance ill try and take a pic hope that somewhat helped.
then for the other side i did the exact same measurements and it worked out nice. u can see the pic above they are exact the same distances and they are centered .

Caused by my exhaust I took the muffler off earlier in the day cause it was hanging. So it backfires and there must have been debris or something it ignited around the gas tank . The plastic shield in front of the tank . Didn't damage anything except fuel lines. We put it out fast enough. Luckily it didn't go through the lines.
