What exactly is this Drift Toy stage three package?

[DriftToy]

All seals and gaskets are replaced on the engine, Custom Valve cover, full tune up with belts and performance wires, Ram Air Cold Air Intake, Auto ECU, relocated battery, electric fan, 2 1/2 cat back exhaust, and a performance clutch.

I would love to see pics of the drift troy stage 3 package finished product

Nice. I always liked verts. They're too heavy though, and auto to boot.

Auto 240=fail. LOL.

1) Why does Auto 240=fail?

2) If you read carefully, the OP has had a 5 speed swap done but running Auto ECU

DriftToy, if that's a stage 3 package, I must be at like stage 7, haha. Just a small thing, didn't your 240 come w/ an auto ecu stock? why would that be included in an upgrade package when you did the 5 speed swap - could have just left the ecu?

All seals and gaskets - talking about head gaskets, intake mani gaskets, timing chain gaskets, etc? If so, sweet deal - basically an engine rebuild?

From what it looks like, the "drifttoy stage 3 package" is just something you are calling what you did on your car - i.e. your username is drifttoy & the website looks more like a personal site than a shop site.

stage 3 package... haha, i'm entertained, sounds need for speed'ish

To answer some of your questions let me explain who i am first. I have been working on 240s for over 12 years and people seem to like my work. Since i only do this as a hobby i only put cars together for certain people and only during my days off since i make my living on a different line of work. DriftToy.com is a site i created on my own to document these projects and to have a little fun. The cars you see in the "projects" section are the cars i have put together over the years. Most of them i built for those special people.

Now since i needed to give these people prices on the 240 they wanted i came up with stages or "DriftToy Stages". You guys can flame me for that but i think it sounds cool. So here they are:

Stage 1 240SX: ($1,600)- Basic tune up (cap & rotor, plugs, and wires) - Cone air filter- Performance Muffler

Stage 2 240SX: ($2,500)- Tune up (Performance wires, plugs, cap & rotor)- Cold Air intake (After MAFS)- Performance cat back Exhaust- Electric fans- Fluids flush- Auto ECU

Stage 3 240SX: ($3,000 - $3,500)- Oil seals & Gaskets (Crank seals, Oil pan gasket, Valve Cover Gasket, Intake and Exhaust manifold gaskets)- Tune up (Performance wires, plugs, cap & rotor),belts, and fuel filter- Cold Ram Air (sits on passenger side bumper vent)- Performance cat back exhaust- Electric fans- Relocated battery- Fluids flush- Auto ECU- Custom valve cover- Performance clutch

Those prices are for the whole car with a decent shell and it does not matter if its a hatch, coupe or vert. Sometimes i do include a few little extra things but it all depends on the person the car is for.

The picture on my first comment is the last car i put together for this year and that is the owner of the car in the driver seat.

Oh and this is what im going to be working on the beginning of next year:



I want to set it up for drifting only with a S13 sil front and a 5 Speed swap.

[madcowvert]

so is that price for the whole car or is it just for the parts and labor?

[DriftToy]

Whole car.

[madcowvert]

3-3.5k for a running car isnt a bad price. did you buy that red vert off a guy in tampa? i think i've seen that vert when a friend and i bought one off jrsink in tampa

[DriftToy]

I almost bought one from jrsink a while back but we couldnt agree on the price. This one i bought from some guy in Spring hill. It needs lots of work. It runs rough but at least it runs.
