My new car for next season

[blu808]

Hi everyone. I was pinked for the last 6 months, and here is what i have been doing during that time. The car is a 1993 FD3s, and the motor is a 2002 LS1. That should make for some good drifting.

Check it out. http://www.shockdrifting.com/articles/view.php?id=49

[SochBAT]

Competition = Erased.

[elphkotm]

Nice! I had an LS1 at one point I was going to put in my 240 but decided it wasn't really what I wanted. They're super-sick in FDs!

[chlatboy]

Damn LUKE, how many years of welding experience u got? And how much u charge to spot weld a car? Dont forget the zilvia discount

[evilimport]

Sux you got outta the 240's but Fd's are freakin gorgeous cars.... and with an LS1 under the hood = badass. Keep us updated.

[Andrew Bohan]

how is this 240 tech?

off topic foo!

hmmmm
luke, i'll be back on monday. then we can get er done

[blu808]

I wouldnt really have time to spot weld another car right now. Pm me if your really interested, and we can figure somthing out.


Thanks for the comments guys.


Andrew: Sounds good.

[OMGWTFBBQ]

cant wait to see it an action

[i8yourfwd]

Luke, anything new happen with the FD? When you gonna put the engine in already. Oh and has John brought back that open diff yet? O_O

[S14DB]

how is this 240 tech?

off topic foo!
Yeah, now I have to ban him for 9months...


Was the Rotary to complex for you?

[BobbyBoy]

Was the Rotary to complex for you?

The car he got didn't come with a motor, because it had already blown up because rotary is l33t.

[S14DB]

Perfect reason to buy a 20B!

[wootwoot]

Even though I see how the swap works nicely, I still think taking the rotary out of an rx car is sinful.

[sr240mike]

He didnt take it out, it wasnt there. It heard about the ls1 and ran. He's got a lot more to say about the car/engine when the time is right. Prepare to be amazed.

[wootwoot]

I dont mean to be a dick, but you diddnt get my point or just ignored it. Did the rx7 come with an ls1 stock?

[sr240mike]

No, it didnt. There's no need to turn this into a ls1 vs rotary thread. He's already got the ls1 and it is going in.

[SimpleS14]

That looks like a very nice project you have going on. I wish I had your kind of skills and access to such equipment.

[evilimport]

Perfect reason to buy a 20B!
mmmmm... 3-rotor.... :drool:

[HyperTek]

hey what brand and where can i purchase appliance paint? lol

ImportEM2 (1:22:37 AM): I hate white things
ImportEM2 (1:22:45 AM): Fucking Cracker ass paintjob
S14DaytonaBeach (1:23:10 AM): I'll tell um that
ImportEM2 (1:23:20 AM): please do.
ImportEM2 (1:23:25 AM): Crackedy ass cracker.

[TheSnail]

That link was funny. Keep up the good work. Also whats the info on the HK?

[Andrew Bohan]

hey what brand and where can i purchase appliance paint? lol

home depot
the can is green and white and has a fridge on it or something
and it says "EPOXY appliance paint" or something

[fliprayzin240sx]

Damn look, yah Rex saw that shiet and you gave him ideas for his damn FD thats been sitting in his garage for over 2 yrs. He got a Henry built 13B chillin at motorsports but he still got mad shiet to buy for it. Sound like its gonna be a sweet setup, question now is, SC'd?!?!

[SittinOnDubsWGW]

That is awesome, I've always wanted an LS powered FD.

[ThatGuy]

Project is coming along nicely Luke. I'm sure you or Andrew will keep me posted. :w00t: Bring that thing over to the "wrong" coast when it's done, I wanna test drive. :rofl:

[Andrew Bohan]

just try to get transferred over here

[wootwoot]

Well you can always think about it this way to boot, Chevy stole a lot of the design for the c5 from the fd3s so now you are just mixing it up even more with the ls1. I dare you to put "Corvette" on the back of it to really confuse some people

[blu808]

We chose to use the appliance paint for just the interior because it is very close to the exterior color we will be running. The main determining factor in using the paint was its durability to scratches. The paint actually looks really nice in person, and seems to look spray gun quality.

Also check it out. I finally got my wheels. yay!

[theicecreamdan]

ewwwwwwwww

btw I love pushrods

[P_s14]

that car is going to be fucking sick

[blu808]

ewwwwwwwww

btw I love pushrods

huh? Say what?

[theicecreamdan]

ewww cuz Makoto nutted on himself

pushrods= VROOM

[CAMFabrication]

Fuck Mazda,
Vroom vroom vroom

[smellslikecurry]

wow props on all the hard work...u guys look like u guys are having a blast...maybe when im cali ill stop by to take a look at the beast

[aznpoopy]

i can't wait to see the finished product! good luck with the project guys.

[Var]

Damn luke..how wide are the rear wheels?

[ALTRNTV]

I can't wait to see the finished car..

[blu808]

the fronts are 18 x 8.5
rears are 18 x 10

yay

[MakotoS13]

oh god *squirt*

[Irukandji]

dammit makoto control yourself... its bad enough that I have to tiptoe my way through urine in the men's bathrooms...

[non2os13]

i have an ls1 sitting next to my empty enginebay in my s13. i want to do it, but i don't exactly know how much work would be required. maybe drysump...too much$$$

[theicecreamdan]

do it to it non2o

[blu808]

non2o do it. I would love to see a ls1 silvia.

ALSO check out the build page andrew added more pics including the dash.

www.shockdrifting.com

[MakotoS13]

another good motor to use would be the I5 that comes in the new H3, colorado, and canyon from GM. that sucker puts down some power. now if only we could get one with a tranny that fit....

[blu808]

I wonder what the weight would be on the I 5 motor. Also most of the truck oil pans have a better chance of clearing the 240 cross member. Somthing to look into.

[DrIvEsldEwAyS]

i know a guy with a LS1 in his FD and its awsome and as far as the 20b goes another guy i know put one in his FC and its been nothing short of a pain in his ass, he has put so much money and time in it..and its just not worth it. but GL with the LS1!

[Nan Desu Ka?!]

damn, and to think... i drew penis's on the dirty ass shell... that thing is gonna fucking own. cant wait to see it done luke.

acctually i would be satisfied with a drunken burnout. when i see it at altamont, im gonna have to bring my jizz rag along as well.

[blu808]

Thats why we are painting it white. So all the skeet doesnt show up. lol

What penisis on the car? I dont remember. The only thing i remember was a 5 minute drunken burnout at 3 am in my s14 in the driveway that wasted a brand new set of falkens, woke up all the neighbors, and pissed them off. lol

Ahhh summertime summertime. http://www.streetneeds.com/uploads/ecza/lukeburnout.jpg

hmmmm, i wonder who that was..... :coolugh:

[blu808]

I allmost died from all that smoke. that was fun.

new pics of the fd should be up soon.

[Andrew Bohan]

whoa, how come i've never seen that pic before? are there more? man i was fuckin wasted at that party hahah

[Nan Desu Ka?!]

lol not on the s14, although the burnout at 3 am WAS awsome. i thnk i still have pics on my comp of that bbq.

i was talking about drawing them on the FD shell :P i hope they are still there.

[Ritz S14]

I thought his s14 was sold?

[FaLKoN240]

He did sell it. This is his NEXT car. That pic is from this summer.

[Ritz S14]

oooooooooooooooo ok. cool..haha

[blu808]

you guys are funny.

check out the site more updated pics from this weekend.\

[blu808]

Sorry pics wernt working. Now there fixed.

[Andrew Bohan]

just got some new pics up. it's getting really fun now :)

[Drunk Bastard]

i like how my bike was in thre tree....asshole

[ThatGuy]

Red, White, and Blue!! :rawk:

[blu808]

haha. Patriotic fd. hahaha.

The car be going into the body shop next week.


Check out the build page now. We got the body kit in.

New pics up.

[turbo_lover]

HAHA !! that is awesome. My friend tony saw a rx7 idling and he was like, "What the f*ck ?!?! RX7's DONT CAM!!! AHHHHHHH!" L - O - L i havent seen one with my own eyes but i do know theres one ruinning around here in VA.

[wootwoot]

You obviously havent heard a bridge ported rotary

[420sx]

cant wait to see the car done. im very interested in the power output and how it performs. i bet it will sound fuckin evil

[AndysAutoSport]

Give me a call regarding your hood, I think we have it in stock. I'll check our warehouse one more time for you today when I swing by there later.


I'll actually call you when I get there around 12:00pm today. I think Eugene is being lazy and not checking hahaha.

anyway, tell Andrew he's gay and the FD's comin' along nicely!

[Jcb890]

too bad you put a body kit and big wing on it :(

i woulda liked to see the body stay kinda stock... but i guess i should have known. i think those cars look amazing the way they are.

[blu808]

Thanks jalal.


Yea it would look kinda outa place to see a fully built race car in d1 or formula d with a stock body though. I agree even stock body rx7s look great!

more pics up.

[SimpleS14]

was the motor really $280,000 ? j/w

[blu808]

haha. $2800 hahaha.

[Jcb890]

Thanks jalal.

Yea it would look kinda outa place to see a fully built race car in d1 or formula d with a stock body though. I agree even stock body rx7s look great!

might look outta place, but who gives a fuck. its your car and you should do it how you want. personally, i'd keep it stock lookin and amaze the shit out of people when they find out its got an LS1 under the hood. but, thats what i like, i'm not a big fan of the real showy shit like body kits and wings, though, i do think many cars look great with the right set of rims and lip spoiler.

very cool build though, the LS1 is an awesome motor.

[FaLKoN240]

Have you seen Luke's old drift car? Why would he make his next one NOT look cool, or different. If I wanted to see a stock RX-7 I'd go onto google, and type in RX-7.

This car should grab people's eye's aesthetically, as well as mechanically. There's nothing better than drifting, and looking incredible as you're going sideways. I would definately say this car would grab my attention more than any stock FD ever could.

[blu808]

Good point. +1 for 240falkon lol

[nistech]

great project. props... i think the only bad thing with going with ls1 is probibly car would be a little front heavy. looking forward to how it will come out keep us updated.

[blu808]

News. The motor is in !!!!

Pics will be up shortly.

nistech: That is the usual assumption, but the ls1 is actually lighter then the 13b with all the stuff on it.
The tranny is the only thing that is heavy.

a car doesnt need a body kit and huge wing to look good. most body kits are ugly and huge wings are fucking gay.

"looking incredible" to me would be a nice looking lip spoiler and some nice rims. not a big body kit and huge wing... but thats just me.

[i8yourfwd]

on street cars yes... on comp cars, they actually need that stability while they're at high speed (wing) and who the hell would have a comp car looking stock.. its a comp car, the sponsors want something eye catching

[Andrew Bohan]

its your car and you should do it how you want.

and he's doing it how he wants. sooo..... yeah. why are we still talking about this?

[420sx]

theres nothing wrong with having aerodynamics kit on a car that is going to be full track car. its not like hes puting a Vader style Erebuni kit on it :keke:

[EchoOfSilence]

You obviously havent heard a bridge ported rotary
:werd:

maybe you were lucky enough to see a p-port and not even know it. that's a sight to see.

[blu808]

Back on topic. We are picking up the roll cage on tuesday, and it should be in the car by thursday.

The motor looks so nice in the car, it eas retarded how easy it was to install, and fits perfectly.

[blu808]

[downforce III]

BEAST BEAST BEAST ~~~~~ x1000
crazy mang, i want to hear that thing, crazy!
can't believe how clean it looks in FD, i wish it fits like that in S13
where can u find a engine that gives u 400hp that's under $4000? LS1 !!!!!!!!!!! SHOCKDRIFTING!
mang maybe u can really bring this car out to buttonwillow, hope u can made ur word come true.

:aw: :bowdown: :bowdown:

[blu808]

I hope its ready for button willow.

[RBS14]

Luke, I didn't read the thread, just Andrew's write-up on Shock Drifting. How are you going to hard mount the diff? Cause you can't use the stock motor carriage/subframe thing that goes between the tranny and the diff can you?

Looking good. Wish I was there to help build this one. Hit me up soon.

Cheers
Scooter

[ThatGuy]

Hahaha, I'm pushing the Publicity for Shock Drifting and this Car all the way from NC. Rock on guys!! :rawk:

Hey scooter. We are actually using a aftermarket torque arm that mounts the tranny to the diff. This thing should be a beast when its done. Let me know when your in the area.



sw20>>s14: Come by whenever. Just let me know.

[i8yourfwd]

Luke, u should throw another bbq!

[FaLKoN240]

Luke, u should throw another bbq!

+1 for a shocker BBQ, maybe this time I can come during the day, with some Teriyaki sauce, and make my famous teri-burgers :D

[blu808]

I want to have another bbq. I will post it up on shock drifting.

[Ritz S14]

Damn you get more done in a few months than people do in a few years.. hahaha sweet deal.

So what type of white are you going to paint it?

[anthony240]

I know this may seem unattainable, but judging by how fast the buildup is coming along, will this car be ready by saturday? at driftshowoff? just curious, I want a ride in it haha :D

[Var]

Umm..use your head. NO

[blu808]

we're having the bbq right now. so come on down

[blu808]

We mocked up the body work, and finally got our coilovers in. We are using Megan racing sleeves on stock struts.


Just kidding we are using tein sd, We also put the wheels on, and put the car back on the ground. Holy crap its looking sexy as hell.

Pics up soon.

[EchoOfSilence]

Hey Luke,

where's all this money coming from?!?!

[Andrew Bohan]

he sold his s14

[zenkiDori]

holy crap I wish I had money like that to blow on my car!!

[nistech]

i was looking ebay on how much u sold ur s14 for what is the linky i couldnt find it

[blu808]

I sold my s14 for 17K. That is helping to pay for this thing.

Hey guys check out the site. The roll cage is allmost done. We just kept adding bars now were up to a 14 point cage.

[ThatGuy]

Looking good. What style of headlights are you going to use Luke? Stock pop-ups or what?

[OptionZero]

go with nonpopups, the flush ones! (not sure if its the JDM ones or an american company), but

[blu808]

it'll have pop ups for now. then flush ones later

[blu808]

Hey guys and gals the car is in the body shop, roll cage is done, and all the new pics are up.

have a lookie.

[SW20Racer]

coming along nice i like it. but where are you going to put the vast array of 12" subs, interior neons, and plasma screens?

[jbj858]

sorry everyone..i was at my friends house when i logged on...and i stayed logged on..it was my friend who made those remarks not me..so once again..sorry for my immature friend

[SW20Racer]

lol whatever dude that car is going to be sex when its finished

[Jcb890]

flush

adj 1: of a surface exactly even with an adjoining one, forming the same plane; "a door flush with the wall"; "the bottom of the window is flush with the floor."

i love how you said the wheel was "too flush". lol. however, there is no such thing as "too flush", the rim was simply not flush any more. it is too wide for the fender, not "too flush". ;)

just givin ya shit man. looks sick.

[Var]

so so sad for the RX7


You're an ignorant human being. your posts are becoming negative and stupid. You are a waste of bandwidth.

[Jcb890]

You're an ignorant human being. your posts are becoming negative and stupid. You are a waste of bandwidth.

gonna agree with you here. that car is sick. LS1s are a fuckin good motor. personally, i woulda gone without the body kit and wing and gone with different wheels, but that car is sick.

[Irukandji]

gonna agree with you here. that car is sick. LS1s are a fuckin good motor. personally, i woulda gone without the body kit and wing and gone with different wheels, but that car is sick.

what the fuck are you saying

[Jcb890]

what the fuck are you saying

read the post that Var originally made to see who he quoted. the kid said something like "so so sad for an RX-7" and Var said something about him being "ignorant" so i agreed saying its a sick RX-7 though i would have done some things differently. learn to read.

[Andrew Bohan]

he saying he wants to be fucked in the ass by a rhinoceros

[blu808]

Fuck yall. Even if i was building a tractor it would be sick. lol


No this fd will be the only car i ever wanted, and it is coming out great.

SKEET!

[SW20Racer]

you should build a tractor! a signal orange kabuto with super wide fenders, twin turbos, and boso exhaust going 5 feet straight into the air then slam that shit to the ground and put a bush hog on there so u can pop mad wheelies! vroom!

[ALTRNTV]

Build a John Deere. Hahahaha

[SW20Racer]

shit was stupid

[Var]

That's pretty hateful.

[SW20Racer]

shit was stooooopid

[SW20Racer]

shit was said, is was stupid.

[Var]

I said "that's" quite hateful. You are not "that". You are "you" .I was referencing the shirt. The only way it would be applicable to you is if you designed the shirt.

[SW20Racer]

these old posts bothered the hell out of me, so i got rid of em.

[Var]

understood. but i dont want anyone to even be able to justifiably form the idea that i was bashing on gay people. the last thing i want is a mod breathing down my neck cuz someone narced on me when they misunderstood my original intent. (this is getting off topic, the reason we're here is to justify the turbo mod of a sohc so lets get back on that cool?)



No it's not. We're here to see how cool Luke's car is. And what a car it is. In person it looks even more amazing. I'm trying to convince him not to bondo the fenders. I like he pull he did on them.

[SW20Racer]

damn ur right i was referring to the other thread about the sohc turbo coupe build. i have too many windows open @ once. my fault ill keep an eye on it :duh:

[Jcb890]

No it's not. We're here to see how cool Luke's car is. And what a car it is. In person it looks even more amazing. I'm trying to convince him not to bondo the fenders. I like he pull he did on them.

if he's going through all that other trouble, he should definately bondo the pull he did even though it adds character and looks pretty nice ;)

[downforce III]

beast!!!!
btwt i sold my FC ~~~
looking for a T2 FC now....let me know!

[Nan Desu Ka?!]

god damnit luke, that looks simply amazing. next time ur having a get together, i want to stop by and see it in person. ill probably bring jesse along too. ill be keeping an eye on sd.com for BBQ updates.

keep those pics commin!

[blu808]

ohh fo sho. :rawk:

[WanganRunner]

.........I want one.

[blu808]

Ok, heres the deal guys. Hilers autobody fully sponsored the car for paint. Initially when we spoke with the owner he said the car would take only a few days to have completed. This was over 3 weeks ago. The body shop has been super buisy, and has not had time to complete the work. So myself, andrew, xander, and george have been there allmost daily prepping the car, etc.

The first time they touched the car was yesterday, and the owner has promissed me to have the car completed by monday.

We hope this happens since we have to have the car all dialed in, and at the track by thanksgiving.

We do however appreaciate the help that Hilers autobody has offered, and fully understand that they have a buisness to run, and we are low on the priority list.


Once we have the car back, we should have everything together within a couple days.

Thanks. Luke

[ThatGuy]

Grrrr. I was hoping their would be some new pics! Oh well, guess I have to wait. :bite: :rant2:

that looks nice with the body kit and wing actually. not what i would have done, but i'll definately give you props. cant wait to see it painted. what color will it be?

when will that ellis juan in there be turbo'd? ;) you know you cant resist.

this is an awesome buil. the cwest kit is pretty much the best looking kit for the fd and with the wheels and wing, it will be sooooo tight. and the engine fits so nice it is unbeleiveable.

luke, i was looking on your website and it says the chassis is "FD33" instead of "FD3S" any reason or just mistype. also, it says you are sponsored by falken tires so will you be in their blue and green fleet (i know white has been mentioned as the car color but just checking) or are they like a secondary sponsor. anyway, props for an awesome build and having good friends to help.

Thanks for the props. The car will be Artic white from the new corvette c6. I am sponsored by Falken but only partially which means they give me a hell of a deal on tires. Im hoping for that to change this season.

Yea i wouldnt be able to do this without all my friends help, especially Andrew.

JCB890: I would have alot of trouble fitting it in there, i think it will be supercharged by march of 2006.
