DMP Round 4 – Karpacz : Touge Europe

probably one of the best videos i have seen from this event.

BOA!!!!!

The shit that this guy can do is just BOA... If you don't know about BOA it stands for Bey-Ond Awesome. Lol it's an inside thing. But it's what we say when something is fantastically friking amazing above all other standards super dope Hella cool. Anyway he is a genius we love the fact that everything is designed to be functional he builds it to actually work and serve a purpose. Go figure. Ha

2 cars, 1 goal

                Well Vegas drift announced it will be hosting one more event this year called best of vegas. on november 5th. so what greater time for us to do a shake down on our two cars. evers car has been down for close to two years, while doing a complete make over of basically every part, suspesion make over, chopping the front end off and tubing it, re routing all the fuse boxes to inside the cab, etc etc.and my car will hopefully be making its maiden voyage, keeping my fingers crossed. for those of you who dont know whats going on with my car click HERE... i recently got my car to the point that i could start it, but it decided to not start. after checking every fuse, connection, wiring,, my CAS, relays, and everything else. we have narrowed it down to hopefully being the ECU. so while waiting for a new ecu to come i got somthing else in the mail... my fans. yaaaay.

s blade dual flex a lite 2500 cfm. since im running an rb25 and there is NOOOO room to run pullers these will be set up as pushers. these were a very tight squeeze, but after trying multiple ways. we decided to notch the radiator support and make custom radiator brackets. after it was all done it almost looks stock.

They will be wired to a relay and then run to a switch in the cab. you should run a relay just to not run the risk of burning up the switch and potentially ruining any other electrical components.

Now on to  evers car.
well his car was all up and running and we were taking it to go get an alignment, that was all it needed then it could start going to u drift and participating in events. but disaster happened, we rented a u haul trailer.

 while he was backing the car off the trailer his down pipe got hooked on the license plate holder frame part of the trailer. and ripped the whole exhaust off the car and kinked the elbow.

So he ended up ordering a whole new t25 turbo, just to get the car running. the plan was to go t28 but we just decided to get it running so he could just get the seat time he needs. we had to buy a new turbo since the elbow was welded to the turbo. its a long story, and we wont go into why its welded. but any way new turbo came today and we we trying to get the car up a running.

tomei manifold and new turbo all bolted together.

so we went to work getting it all swapped over.

It was going very smoothly BUT like everything on his car. SHIT LUCK happened. and his PSM cobra down pipe would not bolt up because the different placement that the tomei manifold puts the turbo at. sooooo he is going to order a new elbow and down pipe that will work in conjunction with the manifold. this is as far as we got tonight.

so to sum it all up we worked on both car today/night in hopes that we can be ready for the Vegas Drift BEST OF VEGAS. we hope to see you all out there.

RB240sx

did a ton of work to the car this week. weather was permitting it rarely broke 100 which is heaven when you live in vegas. got the new fuel tank in, fuel pump assembly, walbro pump, intercooler mocked up, custom hot pipe made, radiator in, rear mounted battery, fuel pressure regulator in, all lines connected, wiring specialties harness all hooked up, new brake master cylinder installed and all brakes bled, auto to manual conversion complete, clutch pedal installed, new clutch master cylinder and agency power steel line. so basically the car should be ready to start this weekend. just need fluids for the trans, diff, radiator, engine. big thanks to my best friend ever for late nights helping me get it done. with out him it would still be how it was two weeks ago. and thanks to joey for helping out with getting me some parts i needed and coming over to lend a hand.

i still need to fully mount the intercooler and some other parts, but its CLOSE
