Banger European 'rallies' - I shouldn't have looked
johnd-mkiv replied to SteveR's topic in Off Topic
Im very tempted by that, I done the modball rally a couple of years ago but I can see this being alot more fun the entry costs seem reasonable to -
I forgot to mention that to behonest I would have struggled to get the tops if it wasnt for the sun roof and the rear quarter windows removed, I tried tacking the front a pillars to the two front struts then welding that outside the car but as I though it started to distort, so I had to jig and tack it back up in the car. Can you recomend anything for the car whilst im at this stage I want to be able to use the car on track days and some drift days but dont want to be turned away or be missing something. Fia regulations or a track car basics guid sort of thing

just give me a bell mate mainly working on it over the weekends
-
If you dont want it mate id gladly take it off your hands
-
Think I have the same opinion now mate theres no easy way of welding it even cutting and shaping the tube was a pain as most of that had to be finnished in the car, then pulling moves from a karmasutra book to weld it
-
They are fairly light I mainly went for the look still not 100% sure if i will keep them as theres a lot of work to get them to look right on the car. aiming for 500bhp from the 1jz so ill need some wide wheels to cope

Little update on the project been busy over xmas with it stripped a load more from the car, theres not much left of it now and its become very light. The engine and box has been removed all the interior and sound deadning, all the luxurys gone interior lighting and other. Been fabricating the rollcage up from 2" CDS tube, one poxy job got there in the end though after a few small fires and my arms, back and neck burnt from all the welding spatter managed to get some primer on it as its sitting outside untill I get some spare time to carry on. Just need to put the front door cross members on it now and the cage will be finnished. put extra supports in over the rear axel as the axel mounts are known to break out the floor when driven hard Removed the sunroof as it was quite heavy lump then fabricated and welded in a sunroof pannel bought some tastey deep dish wheels the rears are 9.5j so I have some arch fabrication to do Bought a toyota 1jz engine been reading up on them and they seem to produce good power, been searching the net and found some pics with them already fitted, not the neatest of installs but shows it can be done, ill be going for a single turbo with poss an uprated intake manifold. Going to start making the lexan windows up this week as a sheet of that has arrived, wont be fitting them untill the car is painted though. looking out for a gearbox for the 1jz so I can make a start on fitting it all.

-
it apears I know nothing about donuts though so ill keep stoom
-
I had around 1/4 of a tank during that vid and it litterally took all my power from me then withing seconds I could nurse it back into a donut I read on here others having the same problems tryed it with 3/4 of a tank and it was fine. I wont be posting my other vids on there now all good fun Ill have to get one of them out in mine on a wet day with the tomei lsd fitted
-
lol im getting hammered im sure theres a few posts on here about it as it worried me when it done it at the time
-
I know many are not a fan of doing donuts in supras drifting ect but can you just confirm for me as I have has this in my supra when doing a donut on less than half a tank it can cause some sort of fuel cut, I could only pull 180 deg spins in mine before the power cut then come back all of a sudden will help me from getting abused on there john
