shane_lxi Posted May 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 Some organizations dont allow modded firewall's apparently. Dont know why, but it sure would be a stupid reason not to be allowed to compete :P. Quote Link to comment
69FJWagon Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 I dont think they would ban you but it would for sure move you into a different class like XP or EP some form of an open prepared class... I am pushing the limits on my car trying to fit it into OSP and thats a open street preppared class ("STREET" just has to be registered ) anything else goes for the most part Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Just caught up on your thread, I forgot how much I like your car :D So your using a RB20 flywheel? Are all RB flywheels the same? Quote Link to comment
shane_lxi Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Not sure. I was doing research on which clutch to use (it get's spendy when you are looking for alot of hp/tq support), and Jason at emance told me that this is the setup he uses on his 400hp ka-t (With a jwt clutch though, not like my off-brand pos, lol). Bought this used flywheel for $50, and the xtd clutch off ebay :P. Hope it holds!! And thanks for the compliment! Hopefully it still looks clean with the skirts on there. I didnt want any fiber glass on this thing (bad experience with my white s13, lol), but for $20 I couldn't complain, haha. Quote Link to comment
shane_lxi Posted May 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 Well, got my turbo from Kyle (Thanks btw!!), and, unfortunately, still too big with this shitty manifold :P. So, picking up a treadstone cast manifold on thursday for it. Didnt want to have to run this ebay piece of shit anyway, lol. Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Why don't you run a bottom mount? keep that heat away from the brakes. Quote Link to comment
shane_lxi Posted May 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 I'd have to go with a t2 if I did that. Not enough room :(. There's a few people that run t3's with ka24e's. Just bought the treadstone mani btw... it's a no go! I am so fucking frustrated :P. I guess the cheap ebay t3/t4 are more of an on-center flange, and the t3/t4 I got is a tang flange. So I am trying to sell mine right now, along with my xs power manifold, and my treadstone mani in favor of a jgs manifold. I am told that it will allow clearance of almost any t3, t4, or t3/t4. But I need 375 bones :P. Quote Link to comment
shane_lxi Posted June 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Well, got a bit done today when my manifold got here in the mail finally!! Got a custom bottom mount t3/t4 manifold, a tial wategate, el cheapo ebay t3/t4 for now, and also got my z32 brakes mounted!! (my wheels dont clear btw :P ). Anyway, more teaser pics!

nismopu Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 you had to get yet another turbo? Quote Link to comment
sanitys Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Why would a modded firewall ban you from auto-x? auto-x might not care, but formula drift has rules against it. nice work man, wish i would have never sold my s14a. keep up the good work. Quote Link to comment
shane_lxi Posted June 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 ^ Thanks, it's been a long build, but I am getting it closed to finished now! I just need to get a few intercooler pipes made, and then wire up my fuel pump and gauges, then it's all done! nismopu- I ended up having to sell both my manifolds, the turbo I got from you, my wastegate, and my downpipe to pay for the setup I am using right now. I wish I could have kept the turbo I got from you, but I wouldnt have been able to buy the manifold for a while unless I sold it, now i have to run this shitty ebay turbo, lol. Oh well, it'll get me by for now. Quote Link to comment
510_Dillon Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 are you selling the 510 to finish your s13? Quote Link to comment
