Free bump. I demand an update, or I'll be knocking on the door come the weekend.

Let's just leave it a little more 'open-ended' for now.

Hell yeah dude! I'll hit you up!

You should come by the shop anyway! It's not quite time for an update yet... But I'll leave this here for now.

Glad to see the Grenade's finally made it on a car after I sat on them for so long.
Almost makes me feel bad about not finishing my car
Excited to see what comes after this.

I threw them right on! My friends Corey and Justin got me a pair of tires for my birthday (thanks again!), so I was ready to rock!

Hopefully I'll see you at some of the events next season!

The 2015 season is getting close! Time to start buttoning everything up! Here is a little preview of one of the things I have been working on over the winter...



More to come!

Wow, what a winter it was. It started off slow, but once it got going I was extremely busy! I didn't have much time for the car other than collecting parts. When I heard that the first event of the season would be a month earlier than usual, I knew I had to kick things in to gear!

I had all of the pieces for my oil cooler setup so I want ahead and installed all of that. I used Earl's lines/fittings and oil filter adapter, Tomei N2 oil block (thanks Thomas!), and a Setrab cooler. I mounted the cooler just above the center vent in the Type-X bumper, with a slight angle down towards the vent. I also went ahead and switched back to a clutch fan setup, using a GKTech fan, brand new OEM fan clutch, and a brand new OEM fan shroud. Last season I was having trouble with the temperature creeping up after multiple laps, and I was set on fixing that!

Once the car was mechanically sound, I reassembled all the body panels and the car saw it's final wet sand and buff. I am really pleased with how the car came out! I took it back to the garage, and went over everything one last time before the first drift event of the season. Everything checked out, and all we had to do was load up.

Then... It started snowing again. What the hell? At this point the car was the shiniest it has ever been... So I held back and tried to wait it out. I swept the 2 inches of snow from the bed of my truck and wedged it in the garage to start loading up. Thankfully the snow finished up just in the nick of time for me to get the car on the trailer and a couple hours of sleep.

My eyes burst open, and it already knew what time it was! Filled up my giant coffee mug (thanks Mom! ), and off we went! I was very excited for everyone to see the car. It was not 'finished' until the day before the event, so nobody had seen it yet. I had developed a reputation for having the 'white car', and it felt good to be living up to that again. The car was very well recieved, and now it was time to put it to the test.



I had not driven the car in months, so I took it easy the first few laps. As the day went on, I became more and more comfortable. By the end of the day I was feeling really good, and had a handful of great passes! The car really felt solid, and the temperature was staying right where it should even as the line got shorter and the runs more frequent. The day was a great success, and an awesome start to the season! Stay tuned for some cool pictures and video!!!

What are you running for the rear differential/axle setup? Currently having trouble with mine at very low ride height. What do you run for rear camber degree?

S13 diff and axles. Not sure on rear camber, I am in need of an alignment.

My friend Duncan Burdette got a couple cool pictures at the last event!

I'm guessing that's oem axles and not any Autozone/Oreilly's brand, since I always break those shortly after installing them... No axle spacers or anything like that? Maybe now that i installed oem axles i'll be ok.

Thanks Carl! You'll get to see it soon!

Thanks Justin! Your car is looking nice as well! It's a shame we're so far apart!

Thanks dude!

Yes, OEM axles.

Steve, Thomas hit the nail on the head, it's an Earls block. Nice piece!

Here are a few more pictures from the last event. This time from Ali Uguyr.









More to come!

Now I just gotta know what your rear camber is set at! That's amazing. With mine sitting right even with the rear rim on 17's and 0 camber it was a no-go lol.

As soon as the first event was finished, we got the car back home and all of the interior out. The bolt-in cage was taken out, and the car went to MA-Motorsports where Dylan Hughes fabbed up a sweet cage! Awesome fitment, and the bars are stitched straight to the chassis. Definitely happy how it turned out.





Then I threw on a set of GKTech e-brake extenders that my friend Corey Landis gave to me! Thanks a bunch dude!



Buttoned everything up and it was off to Summit Point Motorsports Park for their first drift event in years on the Washington Circuit (kart track). I had a good time. Got in a bunch of runs with my friend Ivan and managed not to drive up on to any of the giant grass mounds haha! The e-brake extenders were great! Made a huge difference. The rear will now lock up with very minimal effort. Definitely recommended to anyone who isn't looking to run a hydro!







Brought the car back, quickly went over everything and back on the trailer it went. We were off to Drift Valley 15. Had a bunch of great runs in the morning, but the day was cut short by rain and issues with the fuel pump in the afternoon. All-in-all it was a good day!





In the midst of all this, my mom got a really cool picture from Drift Valley 14 printed and framed! It came out awesome! Thanks mom!



I also had a run of t-shirts printed with the car on them! Stoked how they came out!



Then the new issue of USDM Freax came out... Where they have a whole page about the Wolfpack! Huge thanks to my friend Paul Fregeolle for making this happen! Haven't got my hands on a copy yet, but I have a few on the way!



That's all for now. Still have a lot more going on though. Stay tuned!

I bet it's great to have a shop to work out of.. Do you rent it out or is it an extension of your home? Love the stuff!!!

How bout some news?

Wow! It has been a while since I have gotten a chance to update!

When we left off, I was in the midst of getting the car ready for East Coast Bash. I had got a few laps in when all of a sudden my car cut off on me coming in to the first turn. I went back to the pits and went over the car in search of the culprit. I thought I had found the problem! But sure enough, after a few passes the car cut off again and I decided to call it a day. Still had fun and got in a few solid passes!





Brought the car back to the shop and dug through it to make sure that it was ready for May Matsuri. Also took the time to do some much-needed maintenance to the car. When everything was ready we packed up and headed to May Matsuri! These events run a bit later than typical events around here, so I was excited to get a few passes in under the lights! The event went smoothly and the car ran great! I had a blast and managed to win second place in the solo competition!







Next up was Drift Valley 16, where my day was cut short by a stray cone on course! I came out of the infield and was picking up speed fast. I nailed the manji and threw it in to the bank hard, when my eyes locked with a cone laying in the middle of the bank. I was in a tough spot, with very little time to make a decision. I decided to stay in it and try to go around the cone, but it didn't work. The cone got sucked so far underneath my car that it shredded my power steering belt! I had never shredded up a belt at the track before, and didn't have any with me. The track is in a remote location, and the local part stores are not usually much help. You live and you learn!



The next event was July Matsuri! I wanted to make the most out of this event because it was the last time I would get to practice before USDrift Round 3! Of course it was raining the whole ride up, and the forecast wasn't looking too good. But we pushed on! Finally, we arrived to the track only to be greeted by some of the hardest rain I have seen all year. I was less than pleased, but we waited it out. The weather broke and we quickly got the car off the trailer and ready to go! It was very wet the first few laps so I decided to park it for a bit and hope the track would dry up. The sun popped up one last time for the evening, and the track dried up so back out I went! I ran the car hard all night, only taking breaks to change the tires! It turned out to be a great event, and I surely got in the practice that I was looking for!











Brought the car back, and went over it one last time before USDrift. Stocked up on tires and off we went! I was stoked that USDrift was coming to my home track, and was excited to give it a shot. Got the car unloaded and prepared, and went out for practice. Everything was running smooth, and I was able to make the absolute most out of my practice time. The time came for qualifying and I was ready to go! Took two solid passes and it was back to the pits to wait...











The time came to announce the qualifiers, and my name was called! 13th place! I was stoked! Having never drove one of these events before, I had no idea what to expect. The level of competition was much higher than I was used to. So I quickly went back to prepare the car for my battle against Tyler Nelson.

He was a fast driver, which was never really my strong suit. I knew I would have to keep the pedal down for this battle! We lined up, and took two awesome passes when we pulled back up to the line for the results. One more time!!! Back to the pits I went, where my friends were waiting with a pair of tires and a jack. We lined up for the second time, where I spun on my lead run and Tyler took the win. It was an awesome experience, and I learned a lot! I couldn't ask for more from my first serious competition!



Some of the pictures from USDrift Round 3 were used for the Wolfpack Drift Club feature on S-Chassis! Check it out here!











Well I'm going to leave off there for now... Stay tuned! More to come!
