Here’s the car getting prepped for paint.








Upper Intake manifold paint drying up.


Got the Rotary attack space ships ready. I love that shirt.




I stopped by Clutch Net to pick up my custom clutch.
Mazda pressure plate Toyota four puck disc.


Oleg the owner gave me the approval for a few pictures of work in progress.
These discs are waiting for the centers to be installed.



Here’s Oleg hard at work. Almost every thing is made in house.


There’s a lot more machines like this in the next room.

Pressure plate assembly.


I was told this was really, really old.

I’ve got plans for this.


Boring motor stuff. I’ll just skip this part.

[RX7Turbodrift]

no such as boring motor stuff when it comes to rotors.

[Jeff Jones]

Got The EBC Brakes in for the fd.






EBC is now one of my biggest sponsors.
Check out the advertisement of my s13, in most import magazines.


Finally installing the LSD.



Pictures I took when I picked the car up from Donlyson.






the kit still needs paint




20bee paint .

[Jeff Jones]

Assemble






diff mount




Rotary-Works throttle body




so I got a clutch off a 200sx and mad it work.




Little drilling and some cut and weld.


The dash has arrived.

[Jeff Jones]

Old brakes out


EBC in


Custom transmission mount.






Solid motor mounts. Still need to be braced.


Time to get it all in




got all my hoses and pressure lines made at VF Sales.


26 feet of braided -10
20 feet of -8

That’s a good deal.


This is no fun


Formula D requires a fire suppressant system now.
