[Johnphen]

isn't subframe notching a no-no for tech nowadays? I remember having to source another for my ls1 s13. good luck with the build.. looks great.

[jo_nathon]

Much respect to you following your dreams
I also have the same dream
Good luck to you man

[DamnedButDetermined]

I don't understand why people would think deafness would keep anyone from drifting. Just pay attention to the gauges and everything will be fine. However it would be very difficult for a more experienced drifter to help during a ride along ;)

Keep up the good work and get that car back on the track!

[DR.EVIL]

good luck meng!!! do what makes you happy!!!\


GREAT WORK

[Pinggg]

Keep it up man!

[Kingbaby]

Awesome build!

Could care less you was blind, now if there was a blind drifter...I may have see this in person!

He means you're not usually ALLOWED to cut the subframe.

Build looks good otherwise... in for some smoky movies!

Good stuff and good luck with the build.

And notching the cross member isn't allowed per fd rules. I would get a rule book and read it a couple of times before you get any further in your build. If not you might have to do a lot of rework. Which cost time and money.

[PIN GIO 2]

No way, look like I have to look new subframe and modification gto oil pan or sikky oil pan.

love the build!!
will you incorporate a weak point into the bash bar so that if you hit something it bends/breaks there instead of twisting up the whole body of the car along the rails ?

props to your skill, if I had 1/4 your welding skills I would save a lot of money on parts haha

So happy to see ls1 engine look so sharp and beast! Big thank to Anthony for CPR engine build. Ls1 engine wouldnt start up running because i dont have harness and PCM so i need save up some money for standalone wiring harness included dyno tuning, Fueled Racing fuel line kit, Sikky power steering lines, clutch kit, Sikky clutch master cylinder kit, make custom fuel cells and LS6 intake manifold then it will be ready engine running.

Looking good! What tie rod setup will you be using with those PBM knuckles?

to be honest, i still learning and noob how to set up front suspension super angle.

I plan to order VooDoo13’s S13 Front Adjustable Tension Rods, i hope my front suspension are great increased steering angle.

Front Lower Control Arm modded extended 25mm and gussted. The ball joint replaced Moog ball joint but it isn't tight as sitting on it im not sure how to explain like you know when you installed ball joint but it still loose around 2-3mm gap, is that ok? I will add mod adjustable lock stop next week. i still not sure about mod scalloped lower arm for allow knuckle to more travel because of PBM knuckle 45 of correction.

I think about keep tein tie rod inner/outer and i already put GKtechs spacing the tie rods farther forward on it.

You can see my front suspension setup kind of issue with SIkky sway bar clearance between rim but i haven't install sway bar so i believe do i need mod sway bar cut more short and weld it?

I hope you guys can help or correct me whatever i doing wrong.
