The IS200/Altezza DRIFT Car........

[Mr Morse]

Not doing things by halves are you Mat? :winky:

Still planning on blasting the bodywork for a new paint job?

[Monster-Mat]

yep car goes this weekend for shot blasting

[Mr Singh]

Wooohooo, only thing to fail you on the fuel side is fuel lines and no fuel :P

looking good :D

[Monster-Mat]

Fuel lines and brake lines are being made up once the car starts going back together

[marcus]

Looking good matt.............. :D some very nice bits to go on the car there, the FPR & pump is like the one i was looking at geting from the US

[Zee007]

Fantastic fella! This is going to be ACE!!! :D

[Bazza]

looking good ! :D

question to mathew :

why does the fuel reg have three connections ??

and why only two pedals ? not going auto are ya

[Monster-Mat]

2 pedals 3 master cylinders, 1 pedal is the clutch which has 1 cylinder the other pedal is brake which has 2 master cylinders......1 for front and 1 for rear

3 connections, well i will be blocking one up as 1 is for return to the tank, the other 2 are returns from fuel rails, as i have only 1 rail, i will be plugging one opening

yep should be around 350 @ the wheels but potentially anything upto 400hp

[Mr Singh]

1/4 mile time will be interesting...

How much will it weigh u think? less than 1ton?

i think around 1 ton, as for 1/4 mile, i think traction will be difficult, but of course i will try it :D

Be more interesting seeing this one go side ways other than a straight line

[Mr Singh]

I'd expect a low 13 high 12 on 1/4 mile... but as u say traction is gonna be a bummer hahaha

350bhp/ ton is pretty cool i think :D

[Mr Singh]

Looks like your not far off.

This is a pic from the HKS GT-RS turbo manifold...

[Monster-Mat]

Do you have an idea which weight your drift IS has now?!?

[Monster-Mat]

OMG

"Gimme Traction Baby" B)

But I think traction is not important for drifting, it shouldn't be a dragcar. :winky:

ah, but i have to put stuff back in........

fuel cell, still yet to remove the OEM fuel tank, oem tank weighs at least 15-20 kg

erm....electronics...(only a couple of KGs)

erm....the 6 point roll cage is being removed and a 20 point weld in cage fitted

erm........the engine, after removal of the 1g, plus i need to fit the aluminum radiator, fit the intercooler, turbo manifold, turbo and all that sort of gubbins, so i think it will weigh back in at around....1100, or hopefully 1050
