Wow - fantastic work

A Lada has a Fiat Twin Cam engine you know .............

So does that

Lada video

It was running on very low gas so the engine makes bad sound and performes bad too, it was running all nice before the radiator broke, after it was fixed it wasn't so good, I don't know why, dad checked the ignition and said he will have to adjust the cam gear a little, but I really have no clue.. mist have just been the low fuel, but I do have anti-flosh tank..

good work m8 - cant wait to see more

Mr Bizzle · 27-12-2006, 12:13

Very impressive mate

Motary · 27-12-2006, 16:02

The lada video is quite impressive, I could use a suspension like that, would help to cope with understeer and get me more oversteer

I got a nice present for christmas, too bad it doesn't fit with the current adapter and I'll keep it for my next car, a better car =I

A little update:

This job looks half-arsed, but I didn't use the thin stuff what you sand off with 500+ sandpaper.

Since I could no logner stand doing nothing at home, decided to go to the countryside for the day. What a well spent day! Made my self a new towhook for front, rear tomorrow and new steering placement in the cockpit

tails · 03-01-2007, 22:54

ha this is a cool project interior looks very impressively clean

driftpromotion · 03-01-2007, 23:18

Actually they drift quite well as I saw in Hockenheim back in 2006..

This one was from Hungary and won a prize.

Ladas are too cool come times.

Motary · 04-01-2007, 00:14

Mazda logo on lada?

Can't believe he is using stock cooling system, it's not very good on a slow course but perhaps at higher speeds it works.
Sweet looking engine tho! I wonder where the guys get steering adapters for the wheels, the one I use neglects with modern wheels. I'll post some pics tomorrow of the rebuild of the steering system

Motary · 04-01-2007, 18:16

Tehee, new pics of what I did today:

The tachometer placement idea is good, but I need to redo it.

p-nut · 04-01-2007, 21:26

sweet project dude

whats the drift scene like in estonia?

harrietxxx · 04-01-2007, 22:17

SWEET , cool as fella - these things are damn cool , hope to see it sideways in the future , a 17 year old with such taste as this ? thats damn cool ...... love it

HuDeani_R32 · 04-01-2007, 22:50

lmao top work dude! keep us posted on how it goes!

spin-king · 04-01-2007, 23:06

Love this.

Good work matey.

Motary · 04-01-2007, 23:50

I don't have much of a clue of the driftscene here, it's sitting very low, there are sunday practice days but I've never attended any of them.

I'm not very sure if this will be a drift car, it is more like "drive rallycross to learn sliding techniques", but I'll sure give it a try on tarmac soon!

More works and pics tomorrow

LiGhTnInG · 05-01-2007, 11:33

nice. I'm loving this....I never realised lada's were RWD. wonder what would be a good engine swap for this car????

Motary · 05-01-2007, 12:21

Good swap would be a Fiat TwinCam Turbo :P

I have a little question here, someone has done twin anti-rollbars, would it make a difference in handling and do you know where could I buy a nice carbon fiber "plate" to use in the dashboard, like the lada up there, I've been looking for it for ages now
