Hammond's Slag...

[Hammond]

Probably about time I started a project thread on my budget S13 drift slag.

It started life like this...

...standard apart from a DV, cat back, and poly subframe bushes.

...Badly in need of coilovers :wack:

Coilovers on = major scrapage :wack:

After a good service and a clean it looks like this...

Rota's went on...

Greddy Boost Controller went in and set at 0.9. Although it's only like a .2 increase it does feel more responsive and pulls that little bit better. Turbo Timer is also in and working. I finished off the catch tank install (at frickin last) and just generally tided up the bay.

Finished stripping the rear out and started painting the rear...

Elbow & downpipe went on...

Turbo & manifold gaskets gave up so had the lot replaced and got hold of a cheap Hybrid T25 with a 360 bearing.

30mm spacers FTW!

New Rota's + hand-me-down skirts = Slaaaaag

Had the boot and skirts painted and this is what it currently looks like...

Since then I've had a H-Dev Stg 2 chip fitted to try and combat my fuel cut.

Also had a RPS MAX clutch and new gearbox fitted.

Next on the list is a Walbro and suspension mods :thumbs:

[Hammond]

Couple of late updates...

Got bored so bodged a AFM > turbo pipe up. Pigeons ftw :D

Brought Andy_f's old cage. Me and the old man managed to get it fitted (pics taken when test fitting). I'm going to leave the door bars off until I loose some fatty fat fat and am able to get in and out hahaha! Just kidding, it's a daily drive so I don't need them at the moment.

For 2008 I hope to take part in as many comps and practice days as possible and to obtain my license and improve my consistency level to become a more confident driver. The car's current setup is spot on for my level and theres nothing I feel I need to change (famous last words ;)). Other then a FMIC and some adjustable camber arms.

[Porker-S14a]

Sleepy eye conversion next? :thumbs:

i like the slagtastic looks of this, if i could afford a 2nd s13 she'd probably go this way

[ca21tmp]

lovely project for the amateur spec, keep it up and instead of buying all the time, save and buy in bulk its cheaper...
