hyperfest coverage

too bad i didnt qualify, turns out the BOV was leaking a tremendous amount of boost and i couldnt figure it out until sunday.
id hit about 7psi and then id just start losing all my boost/have no top end

got there thursday

friday morning getting ready for practice

some photos from friday practice/qualifying, it felt like it had around 200 hp at this point

no power no smoke! FAIL! ended up qualifying 22nd place! at least i didnt get a zero

blocked off that bitch (the BOV) @ drift nirvana around 1pm sunday through the day after checking for numerous boost leaks etc. and BAM like 70 HP and top end outta no where! shit hauls ass and spins through 3rd on 245's!
sad i didnt make top 16, but so glad i figured the car out! first time driving it.. now at least this winter i can really put some more effort in and prepare for a sick ass 2013 season. most deff will be doing some more testing as this season rolls through though.

awaiting some more media and hopefullyl of a video of when i got it running better!

Looks like you dialed out alot of rear camber, good shit! I did the same, car is grippy as fuck.

Bitches in the trunk? Man, you need more doors.

Good to hear you got another job with Toyota. Sadly drifting is not cheap and usually requires a source of self generated income for continued participation haha. Nice job on the rear end, looks great! You should now be ready to slay some more tires : ). Despite my initial negativity about you replacing the s12 with the s14 it really seems like your enjoying and taking advantage of the s14 chassis so that makes me happy to see. Still weird to see you piloting an s14 but I am finally starting to adjust.

David B · « **Reply #119 on:** 10:44:50 PM / 24-Aug-12 »

i like the s14 alot, especially this one.. its got alot of parts on it i never thought id have, power is okay for now etc.. im gonna do alot of work to it this winter!
