Flybye Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Just picked it up today. Im pretty excited about it and ready to give it the "love" that it needs. The car has waaaay too many parts to list right now. Just to start though...it is an SR20det w/16g, Apexi stand alone, BPU's, Full coilover setup with many other goodies, 10pt cage, etc etc etc The list is pretty long. It isn't in the greatest shape right now, but still runs amazing. I plan on bringing this car back to life and having a lot of fun with it. First off is fix the bumpers and pop the minor dents in the quarters. Then a very thorough tune up and bath, new turbo setup, possibly new headgasket, new tune and im sure a few other things. I also would like to get a new paint job...that just isn't at the top of my list right now. http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a88/seandb20/2010-03-24162728.jpg http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a88/seandb20/2010-03-24162701.jpg Nice little sound clip from when the builder/driver still owned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Not digging the ridiculous body, kit but I love me some SR20. Get that thing cleaned up for summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squidward Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Ive seen that car before but i cant remember where. Not a fan of the color but still a nice car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alibies Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 i thought someone in sunbury owned that car, i saw it drive by old bag of nails a week ago. the only thing i dont like is how far the exhaust sticks out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flybye Posted March 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Not digging the ridiculous body, kit but I love me some SR20. Get that thing cleaned up for summer. Im not really a fan of body kits either...but it seems to be the most popular and more subtle ones out there for s13's. If you know the drift scene then you probably know this car and the kid who put it together. There are many videos of him online and he is definitely a badass on the track. Here is a quick little vid/sound clip of the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickey4271647545519 Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 wow, i remember when that car used to be maroon, i went to school with the P.O.

boosted98gst Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 No offense to you but this car reminds me of 240 owners now days, cheap wheels, cheap paint, big hookin cheap body kit, SR20 standard, they are like cookie cutter cars anymore. Good luck fixing it up the way you want it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Cranium Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Looks like a lot of fun. Good luck with the project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGGU Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 woo safety cage car! that car was built for one reason only, to get down sideways. btw replace that BOV asap i know the car never had it hooked up on the track so that turbos probably needing replaced.

Fubar231 Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 btw replace that BOV asap i know the car never had it hooked up on the track so that turbos probably needing replaced. I talked to the P.O. and he said he never ran a bov cause those turbo's were so damn cheap to replace. First thing i would do is fix the fucking exhaust that sticks out 6-8 inchs. Not my style... at all. This car is tuned on a apexi power fc right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats why I posted a thread in the FS section last night looking for both of those. It also has a sticking lifter from start up until it gets warm that I need to figure out. I talked to the P.O. and he said he never ran a bov cause those turbo's were so damn cheap to replace. First thing i would do is fix the fucking exhaust that sticks out 6-8 inchs. Not my style... at all. This car is tuned on a apexi power fc right? It doesn't have the stock T25 on it.....it's a 16g. But those are still cheap too. The exhaust has grown on me a little bit. Though I might shorten the downpipe and change it up a little? And yes it is tuned on the Power FC. It was a track car, so who cares? EXACTLY!!!! Now lets hope I can learn a little and maybe make it out to the April 17th track day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fubar231 Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Yeah i mean personally just get the bumpers attached on instead of zip-tied on (Not sure if they still are) and get the exhaust fixed and roll with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiColin Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Not to bad. The body looks like it needs some major TLC but its got some potential. Are you going to be drifting in it as well and keep it a track car? 16gs aren't to bad I maxed one out 350whp, and they spool super quick. Looks like it would be fun throwing that car around sideways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I plan to get some practice in it and make it out to some events this year. I might get another 16g, but wouldn't mind an 18g either. It is very fun and that is all this car is really set up to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC the head on that car is built with new springs, retainers and some BC cams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
