Wow what a long road it's been indeed... keep us posted! I've had tough times of my own before, even not all that long ago, so I know how it feels.

I've decided to not risk my investment to shit tires, mounted 4 brand new 215/45/17 GT radial champiro HPYs as 'burners'. Fronts will be 205/45/17 toyo proxes 4. I'll give a run down on how good or shit these tires were.

bring da smoke.

I here ya on the tires, definitely keep us posted on the tires..... I was looking into buying a set of champiros to burn

Christ almighty! To imagine this thing ever had a spot of rust on it seems ridiculous.

RB25sx - SLPR · 03:51:58 AM / 25-Jun-12

Tomorrow is the day I find out if this thing will sputter to life to give me another season of smoke and magic.

D-sport S12 · 01:14:20 PM / 25-Jun-12

RB25sx - SLPR · 01:20:12 PM / 25-Jun-12

Bring an angle grinder, a measuring tape, and a marker to the DUI.. Prepare to be vented.

I'm missing the DUI, I get back from work 2 days after, not happy....

RB25sx - SLPR · 11:24:19 AM / 27-Jun-12

It runs, it drives, it leaks before the turbo like a fucking sieve.

I'll fix it in the long run but for now - I am taking a short break from this damn thing.

RB25sx - SLPR · 12:28:22 PM / 19-Jul-12

Sooo..

Car is finished, but there will forever be 1000 small items to fix on it - but as of right now.. its drivable.

i am really happy for you great job cant wait to see first vid of smoke pouring of the back wheels

Prolowtone · 05:43:23 AM / 20-Jul-12

Hot Damn

RB25sx - SLPR · 12:03:01 PM / 20-Jul-12

Bahhaha, good shit.

I built my e-brake in such a way that it was ever-so-slightly engaged, and effectively locked my rear brakes ON.. *sniff* *sniff* whats that smell? BRAKE PADS. Also, my lower rad hose was weeping on the drive home, the timing was way off so I had next to no power, my temperature gauge also decided to take a vacation.

The car is FUCKING LOW. I was scraping on sections of road that seemed to have no high spots or potholes or anything.. Speedbumps are out of the question, as is all forms of daily driving.

Suspension feels fucking tight though, like it should have a long, long time ago..

Car grips and grips HARD. I feel like it would almost make a better autocross car now than drift car.

Alignment is as follows:

Front: 6.5 deg caster, -6deg camber, 0 toe
Rear: -1 deg camber, .06" toe out

Thrust is off by less than .03", which essentials mean the subframe is in STRAIGHT.

Oh, also.. I blew up my motor on saturday.. Oops. Need a new RB25, possibly RB26.
