I rarely post but holy shit man… this is fucking AWESOME!! I love how clean you have kept everything. very simple, and looks easy to maintain. Waiting to see this bad boy in action.

Even though I dislike V8s, hydros and things of that nature in drift cars, I REALLY admire the attention to detail in your build as well as your fabrication. Everything looks great! Keep it up man

thanks for the positive feedback folks. no real noteworthy updates to report. i got burnt out and wasn't having fun anymore so i'm taking a short break. in the meantime it's just waiting while i play with an FC. i'll get back to work in a week or so.

^thanks dude!

well, i'm supposed to be with my friends at thunderhill right now shaking down my car but i could not get my shit together in time. sucks. all the little things... so many little things required to finish this MFing build.

recent progress:

i had to figure out a place to mount some hood pins.





i also realized i needed some sort of steering stops.





i cut the inside of my doors out.






got the PC rear and 1/4 windows made and installed. then i ran the ducting from the radiator shroud to the NACAs in the 1/4 windows.






finally got my transmission tunnel cover made.





test fitting my dmax crap.





and i finally got a windshield!





so, it runs and drives now. i'm just down to a few loose ends, some cosmetic stuff, paint and an alignment. burnout vid soon...

thanks everyone. a little positive feedback goes a long way when you're drudging through the final stages of a long build.

i was able to get some paint on the car yesterday despite a wonky compressor. exact japanese maple color match!

nissanracer29

I would like one of these also! PM me if you can make one and how much. Thanks and keep up the great build

oh man, i barely have time to make stuff for my own car! sorry!

well, i had a good test day at t-hill yesterday. the car held together great. the PCM, setup and driver definitely need work but it was amazing to see the thing finally moving under it's own power. it's been a long road.

DJPimpFlex

Video!!!! Dude this is very exciting.

thanks man! i'm pretty stoked. i'll get some video sunday. i don't think there's any from yesterday. probably for the better. would of had all of zilvia like this

DJPimpFlex

Did you love it or can I get down on the part out?haha

__________________

lunarbomb

haha! no part out yet but i'll let you know. honestly, it was damn near impossible to drift with the PCM in limp mode. too much angle, too much wheels, too much camber and no power.

DJPimpFlex

So much for reliable ls. Mine is being a ass hole too.

suuuuck. i think mine is ok though. it just needs to get through its self tune which supposedly takes 30 miles of driving. hard to do on a skid pad but it was slowly getting better throughout the day.

hope you get yours figured out soon. you're looking for points, right?

DJPimpFlex

I'm working on it. Not really sure what the problem is, fuel pumps just shut off after like 10 minutes of driving. Season was over before it began, missed round 1 of all ProAm series. I will probably do GGD Rd2 if I can figure out the fuel issue and program my dash so the sensors work.

^thanks man. it's slowly getting better the more i drive it.

i had a blast at CLub Drift yesterday. my first event in over a year! i think the car is good enough. better than me, that's for sure. all i need to do now is keep it maintained and drive it as often as possible. so fun...

Mr.Doback

Lunarbomb is so ahead of us, his drift session was filmed on May 6th.

Car looks and sounds great!
