Some matching gramlights and paint and this car will be 1000% best

joshg51 · 04-24-2018, 07:31 PM

Hey guys! Ive got some updates.

First I made some cool D1GP style removable door bars for my cage using Cusco fittings and Mild steel so I could tandem at Drift Central in Marina, CA.

Need to paint my cage now tho

Also I picked up a matching pair of gram lights that also need paint.

Untitled by joshg51, on Flickr

Then I went drifting finally after several months. Felt great to drive my car again and test out the 4.6 diff which definitely makes the car a ton of fun. too bad the layout that didnt let me try out 3rd gear.

Video of some drifting from that day

The homie Fat Cat Mike hooked it up with some SPL tension rods so could complete my front end suspension minus B-Knuckle sometime in the future. Also you can see in the back I put in some SPL outer tie rods and Z33 inner tie rods. to hopefully not bend under all the grip the Federal RS-RRs have.

other than that i just hungout at super d and we'll see whats next for the car.

1.4mm if i think I’m answering this question right. Most lower end guns are the same just find one that doesn’t leak, around $50ish. Animal style paints their car and the burst cars with cheap simple guns. Spend time time doing research on YouTube, tons of good videos.

well, you can buy a shitty gun every time you spray a car, and possibly have to go back to the store 4 times to find one that actually works (as i've had to do in the past) or you can buy a $250 high quality gun that will last forever as long as you take care of it. this last time rus painted my car with his nice gun and that shit came out noticeably better. julian just has a ton of experience using shitty guns and makes them look good lol it's all skill

Eww Evo · 07-20-2018, 11:52 PM

^^ I was thinking of buying one from the Parts truck. Either Matco or Snapon. I know they can get expensive but coming from them I'd assume they should be decent to get the job done.
