S13 with 1UZFE 4 litre V8 - Page 12 - Drifting forum

**SteveDunn** · 25-01-2008, 14:21

They do indeed. Working V8 drift cars would probably be even better though

I'll be up for a battle against your beasty at Pod or something. As it seems that I wont be eligable or able to fit into any competitions this year

See you in Europe or something

Ditto

We should do a Europe V8 trip
The two cars on song at pod should be pretty amazing.
What are you doing with your exhausts?

Smack Jason round the head for me and tell him that he needs to do what i ask. He will know what your talking about,

Side exits. 2 each side. Just infront of the rear wheels

Having them so that we can angle them towards the floor at tracks with gay sound metering things

Oh!
Nice

Im having one in each quarter pannel and then a screamer pipe exiting just infront of each door.

Should be a giggle.

Good idea about the aiming towards the floor thing. Im trying to figure out how im going to quieten it all down myself. Cuzzzztom baffel or something.

The car will be, I won't be though. Can't have a crack at EDC like I was planning because of their new format. BDC is full to the brim too, and I didn't compete there last year, so don't have a license. The Kings thing that Niall is doing is invite only as far as I can tell. I think there's Prodrift thing happening, but I've not read into it much...

Mr Bizzle · 25-01-2008, 15:28

Bit gay really -
I put my name down for BDC, EDC etc but heard nothing from them at all.
Feck knows what's going on.

retrodan · 26-01-2008, 01:10

come skid with us then dude, pd euro series!!! will fricking rock!!!

**SteveDunn** · 26-01-2008, 13:33

Thought id update with a decent camera for a change, seeing as i've just got one. Technically, er, not really any updates, but an excuse to take purty pictures.

Sump clearance is a bit of an issue

Camber's a BIT out...

and finally one of the purty sparkles, as it's the first time in 8 months the cars seen the sun...

Mr Bizzle · 26-01-2008, 15:48

Out of interest Dunny,
What are you going to do to stop you ripping the sump off the engine the next time you hit that big hump in the ground at the pod...

Nice piccys tho

**SteveDunn** · 26-01-2008, 20:20

I dunno. Sumps not really important is it?

I need to get some different front springs, as the engines heavier. I also need to dial out the 11tybillion degrees of camber the car currently has. This should raise it a touch. I'll probably cover the sump in a big sheet of steel or something too. frick knows.

stueywalls1 · 26-01-2008, 20:47

That 100% needs a sump guard but other than that it is sweet

**James** · 26-01-2008, 23:43

**SteveDunn** · 28-01-2008, 11:54

Sexy Monday morning presents!

Quail · 28-01-2008, 12:01

That V8 looks so at home in that engine bar (bar that low sump!). Any other sump options that wont hang so low. Do any other cars share this engine that may have a different sump design?

Dex · 28-01-2008, 12:02

dry sump!

Autospecs · 28-01-2008, 12:03

That looks like a nice fit but as already someone noted that sump is gonna need protection, nice build - cant beat the sound of a good V8 so rarely hear them round here!!

**SteveDunn** · 28-01-2008, 12:04

The Soarer obviously shares that engine, but is mid and rear sump, which would just meant hat it wouldnt fit due to the crossmember. Those pics don't really show how close the front sump is already(infact its had to be cut and welded to get it there

).

At the moment it's still a case of accruiing the parts to make it actually move, rather than worry about things hitting when it does move
