DriftBoy07's Build Thread

[mRodiek]

i searched a bit for shaft play and it seems that a little side to side movement isnt a big deal as long as it isnt hitting the wall. but in and out movement is UNACCEPTABLE! so ill check that as well when i get to my dads tomorrow.

but the good news is i ordered my gasket kit from phase2, my first major purchase for the build! [other than the car & engine ]updates to come..!

[tEknoS13]

sweet

[mRodiek]

tried to get some work done this weekend, not much other than cleanin/ painting the intake mani, IACV, & half the blocki stopped because i had to pick up and hang drywall in my dads kitchen all day ttoday...pain in the arse

on top of that phase 2 charged me $474 for my gasket kit they charged me twice...each one for different amounts

im definately leaning towards the GT2560R [spec R S15 turbo] and getting an Exedy Stage II to hold it.

[mRodiek]

nothing to update til i get my gaskets, and ill order the clutch this weekend. but i have a question!does anyone know where i can snag some bumper/fender hardware? mine is missing a ton of them and i want to make sure they are held in securely

[White Comet]

heres an easy fix. take the hardware you have to a hardware store and figure out what size it is then buy as many as you need

[tEknoS13]

you mean all the nuts and bolts? home depot, lowes etc, or for oem try courtesyparts.com

[mRodiek]

dude you have all the answers to all my questions..i should rename this the WC [and teknos] answer thread lol

[White Comet]

[tEknoS13]

BTW you're actually going through with the s15 turbo? come on you know you want the gt2871

Just bought the Disco Potato. Done.

[mRodiek]

spooled-idk what the conversion factor would be but FRsports are like $1150 and i think phase2 or enjuku might be cheaperhttp://www.frsport.com/Garrett....html

and that site claims itll make 460hp..from what ive seen the .64 can make 400hp but not too much more..maybe im nuts?

[tEknoS13]

dude is that the link to the turbo you purchased? (GT2871RS) Thats the one I'm planning to upgrade to. What hapenned to the GT2560R?

[mRodiek]

i wanted to see if anyone would call my bluff i didnt buy anything yet lol im goin with the GT2560. ill probably order it next month, your gettin the 2871 though? bad-***when you plannin on having her on the road again?

[tEknoS13]

awwh man for a second there I was extremely jealous of you! Yes I'm planning on the gt2871rs but I'm kinda confused on the power limits. frsport says it will produce 400+hp and enjuku says a different thing, both with the same specs maybe I'm missing something.

Well I promised my dad I will get the car out of the garage this summer so I guess, this summer lol.

GT2650.....? Perhaps you mean the GT2560. The price seems right at frsport $795.95

[mRodiek]

lol fixed, was a typo. and FRsport calls it the 28R for some reason but w/e lol and yeah $795 with the actuator will be nice!

as for the 2871rs there are a few builds on it:idahotuner-> zer...age=1codyace-> zerothread?id=213470im pretty sure you can get 400hp out of it but much more than that? idk..and if its gonna be a street car do you really WANT that much? just my opinion

car shows every fri night @ nostalgia mcdonalds in GURRRRNEE over the summer, you should bring your car by for sure-only like 45min from pilsen

[White Comet]

frsport says 460 AND 400...interesting

[mRodiek]

[tEknoS13]

You're right I dont need all that power but I cant resist either. 400whp is all I'm looking for. Plus my friend who has a Cobra talks a lot of crap about imports. I told him we will settle things at the track once our cars are finished (he's going turbo)

Thats SR is looking good, nice job on the intake manifold. Did I tell you I got my Greddy intake manifold for $300...? lol sorry for teasing you man I just had to share with you, what a steal.

WC, I see you noticed as well. I tried to call them twice to verify but they were busy I guess.

[White Comet]

yeah it's kinda weird but it won't sop me from going with that turbo

how long did it take to get the engine that cleaned up? it looks great

[mRodiek]

you suck tek. but that would be an interesting race forealio, but as i always say its only fun for about 10sec! thats why i like going sideways and it took me like a week to clean it up & paint it, thats only because i was stoppin by doin stuff little by little, i did the exhaust side one day, intake mani another, added some more coats the next day blah blah.gaskets should be here today & i have no class after tonight til tues so hopefully ill get something done!

ill be replacing MOST gaskets if i can tthis weekeend, stay tuned

[White Comet]

doesn't look bad, but thats expensive for what you're getting. you'll need more then that to have decent drift mods though

[tEknoS13]

Yea I guess you're right, but like I mentioned before drifting never really crossed my mind until now. we'll see how it goes

[mRodiek]

what triple post?? lol i dont see any triple post. and yes those would be starting mods, coils are prolly above all else on that list, as well as many..many..many tirescheck out PBM-its what ill be goin withhttp://www.gtfactory.jp/cms/page.php?5

[White Comet]

wow thats weird cuz you def triple posted but now its gone

[tEknoS13]

I'm familiar with the PBM products, they seem tobe good stuff. Good chance I'll end up with their coils but first I must sell the AGX strut Tein spring combo. Thats a nice list of goodies you got there. Now I want to put up mine but dont know where to begin.

Is there a thread where people post their mods?
