Rx8 drift car
#51
exhaust is all done.
He did such a nice job. I love how it tucks right up into the grooves of the underbody. no more ****** scrapping everywhere on the road...
On a more sad note: The car wasn't finished in time for the damn drift event this weekend. Which sucked ***.... but whatever. The event was sick either way. I got to drive my brothers car and someone elses, so i got some seat time.
The problem with the car is low compression in the front housing. I'm at like 60, the rear is fine though. We think possibly due to massive carbon build up, cause my plugs were disgusting and they are relatively new. I had to baby the car for like 90 miles over 2 weeks, while not having a tune and running rich as ****.... So we let that "de-carbonizing" solution sit in it for 48 hours. Were gunna check it all out tomorrow and hopefully proceed with the tune. And then it'll be done.

Reading this and looking again at the cage I would ditch that cage and get a safe one built. What rules are the event that you're going to attend following? Take that rulebook and start from there!

Nice however this is the last year nascar is using the wings then they are going with a much smaller setup because the wings actually cause the cars to flip over when spun around backwards. Lol basically the wings are not needed. a lip spoiler is all that is going to be used.

Well here you go guys. Its finally done. I still have to lower the front a bit, wash it, and take some day time pictures. I ****** love it though. It's making about 250hp at 8psi.
