About Us

START READING FROM THE BOTTOM so you read it in order. (or use the links over there >>>) This is a blog following 2 noobs trying to build a drift/track car.

Back to work...again =)

So after exams, bit of relaxing, bdays, we thought we better start working on the dpp...again! First thing first was to move the 100 cars in amals drive away and pull the 180 into the garage...imagine this the car is stripped the wheels are held on by 3 bolts or maybe even 2 depending on the wheel, the interior is gutted, the drivers seat isnt even bolted in and the the pivot steering wheel is held in with 3 screws so it almost comes off as soon as you try to do anything...anyway we managed to roll it...next thing bangout\clean up the guards.....we soon found that half the rear quarter panels were covered in bog so spent most of the time 'deboging' so to speak...
Next jacked up the car so, we also then realized the exhaust was nothing but a 3" pipe going from the engine, no cat no nothing, we then dropped the exhaust to get clear access to the subframe!

Then we begun looking at the subframe, how we should go about swapping the s14 subframe with the 180, if its possible to simply swap the 180 diff and put it into the s14 subframe (if anyone knows let us know lol). With the help of amals dad and his tools the 180 subframe was out! and it only took us 5 months to get onto it lol
Next up- put the s14 subframe in, fix up the rear guards, drop the gear box weld up the holes in the engine(Wednesday with the help of chappo), engine and wiring, primer amongst other things!
