09 new supercharged drift car project...

[casper82]

VIDEO>>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKnDM1sFiXg just uploaded this so may still be processing,if so come back later please

i have it running without piping, but it is working with a stock 3 tooth belt from the power steering...i still have to make the parts to hook up the 3" or 2.5 " pipe for the intake

ok, first of all ..i know the car is ugly.

this is the newest 240 i got since i crashed my 2008 car....here that is

2008 drift car, oops

yeah it hurt.. But now i have this one. I have been working on it for a few months now, almost everything new just to get it to run lol. Right now where installing a m90 eaton supercharger to the ka24e. i hope this comes out good.

2009 car

sorry, i hit the wrong button and post it before i was done.

I absolutely LOVE that you are going forced induction without a turbo, but one question-why a roots style vs a snail style such as a vortech?

just wondering.

I'm also super interested in how you make it all work; bracketry and plumbing and such. Is that one of the louder SCs?

haha was thinking same thing when there was no pics haha

dang dude that sucks about the s13.5 tho

[Nali]

Pictures no work cept the one of the fuuked up S13.5?

Nonetheless, what sideskirts were you using on the .5?

[King Ranzo]

I like the idea of supercharging the KA E. I actually might go for it, unless it's more expensive than turboing it...

[casper82]

this supercharger was $150 ebay. some inter-cooler piping around $100 a boost gauge $30(i didnt care what it looked like) and some custom brackets to get it all to work,,oh yeah new longer belt. so under 300 so far

[asoomal]

Supercharged eh...

I was thinking of doing the exact same thing with my DE, a remote mount S/C. How's the low end on that thing? Pretty snappy?

[Venkmen]

DO you have anymore pics of the plumbing on that ka24der? I am seriously thinking of going this way and can't decide between the m62 and m90. I know how I would plumb the 62 but not sure on the 90.

[pj]

the new car doesnt really look that bad, i like the alum. dash...dotn like the body but the color scheme i could deal with.call me a noob but i have never seen a supercharger run off exhaust? explain further if you would, plumbing, exhaust work etc. please...im just really curious.

[mRodiek]

You should look into Whipple superchargers, I know you have yours set up already but people have done some insane things with Whipple SC setups.

[hbpignosePA]

(i didnt care what it looked like)

thats obvious after looking at that abomination you call an s13.... seriously FnF 6 called they want their drift car back

[Pdawg]

I fully support modification and especially forced induction, but you should really really take that hideous wing off and spray paint over those hideous decals.

[zach-Ka]

That s13.5 was very nice. It looks like you have a good build going so far though. You can make in pretty later. I have never seen a super charger setup like that for a KA I have always seen them attatched to the intake mani.

[TimTurboZ]

yeah I'm confused why it's on the exhaust side....time to google (BTW the second pic made me flintch )

[casper82]

yeah the paints over the top..but the last 3 240s i built where real clean and i wanted something kindda over the top. but after doing it, i did want to repaint.

after its done and running stong i well paint for sure.

[maik21]

good project !! i will see the whole process!!

[zach-Ka]

What color are you thinking of?

[StricNyne]

wow, haters on the whip, anyway i like em both, i always had a hardon for s13 with 15 front, and awesome u got that supercharger on i would worried about balancing it and that mounting plate, i thought of twin charging my rb i am undecided right now though, i was lookig at the stock one on the 4agze, its a clutch based SC that u can have engage via a msd rpm activated switch

[Nali]

What Bodykit is that on the new car?

[casper82]

not sure on the name,they sent the wrong one,,but at the time i didnt need the front b/c i had the s15 front. but its a ebay mix and match kit $400..lol . i need a new kit every month.

[casper82]

i put a video at the top of the page

[S13Joe]

god that thing sounds annoying

[casper82]

yeah i really hope most of that goes away after it fully hooded up..but not sure

[Rawrvasour]

keep the wing its a drift car and its supposed to look stupid. Its just going to get ripped off anyways. I love how people are like OMG its ugly! But who in there right mind would take a pretty car out a drift it? Keep up the good work but that thing is annoying as piss.

[ChampaignSilviaS14]

But who in there right mind would take a pretty car out a drift it?

Me.

[Tsukiko]

ok so setting my assumptions aside on how this would have been done properly, where the hell did you connect the output of the SC to your intake?

and are you going to put a filter before the SC, or just suck up random crap constantly?

sorry but this looks like you slapped on an SC and didnt actually connect the output of the SC to your intake.

Given that you havent answered any technical info and have talked more about aesthetics and other things irrelevent to a supercharged KA-E, i say detailed pics of the supercharger setup or massive fail. and judging from the video, you arent running much boost at all, if any... ~55 mph in the top of third?

Whats up with that blackened out gauge on your dash?

oh and i must say your backyard lawn donut skills are amazing....

i say that annoying noise is the output of the supercharger blowing air into the engine bay.
