Project FC3S *.driftCar`` (inprogress)

Post by Kouki7 »

well here's some pics of my FC. its a complete "work in progess" and needs lots still. these are some old pics of before the motor swap.

here's a little short history of the car:

bought it in Feb. of this year as an N/A. the motor developed "issues" so i opted to swap the 13bt (turbo rotary motor) and convert it to a TurboII model. i finished the swap about 4 weeks ago. 3 weeks after the swap, the motor blew. i'm suspecting clogged secondary injectors caused a lean situation. anyways, my car now sits awaiting me to get the money for a rebuild.

before it blew it was running about 13psi daily on the stock Hitachi HT18 turbo. the car was fast enough to beat my friends modded DSM thats run a 12.9 in the 1/4. i never got a chance to take her to the track though as i'm not setting it up as a drag car. my mods list is far to long to type out here so please feel free to check out the link in my sig. it'll let you know everything i've done to the car up till this point.

that car was so freaking fun when you brought it down, hope it gets back in running order pretty soon :).
maybe by then i'll be running higher boost as well and we can have a little fun next time you're here in town.
