Flame Red S14 Zenki

[silverzx]

Lots of updates!

Got some tyres put on my XXR's so they'll be going on the front very soon! Slightly stretched too which is "cool".



Sorted through my tyre collection and realised I have a lot more 17"s then I thought so will be looking to get some cheap 17" skid rims for the back.



Replaced the turbo for a good condition T28 on a standard cast iron manifold, I think it's time to accept that my old stainless one served VERY well considering it was a cheapo one, had been snapped clean in half twice and lasted two years of PURE abuse. Also, the old turbo has about 1 cm of IN/OUT play, it's f**ked.



Then I took it for a slide, lovely, except car started running on 3 cylinders... Few hours later I had narrowed it down to a single coil pack failure so replaced that and it runs sweet again!



Next I realised I had a boost leak, but wasn't sure where from until I found this! So next on the cards is a custom short/high mounted FMIC, fed up of bashing this current setup everything I crash or scrape over something.



I then got around to fitting all my lock mods with a friend on his ramp which includes:

- Modified hubs
- Lengthened and reinforced arms
- Japspeed super lock castor/tension arms
- Japspeed adjustable steering rod arms
- Driftworks offset rack spacers

All of which has seriously messed up my alignment and it would seem one wheel pokes out 1-2" more than the other, go figure that out...





I then proceeded in true "drifter" fashion to crash into a rock... Less on that anyway...

Overall very happy.

Outstanding jobs include

- Buy/fabricate short/high mount intercooler setup (fix boost leak)
- Fit AEM wideband (for safety)
- Spray spare 18" wheels
- Fit side skirts
- Fit roof spoiler
- Remove airbag unit in rear
