this car went through so many different ideas thats the reason why some parts are the way they are first i wanted to have just a street car than a 10.50 index car that played on the street than i wanted to make it go 9s on a 62mm turbo than bought the 6766 just a normal teenager i guess lol
the night i brought her home


before loading her up for paint

day i got her back from paint (excuse the garage we were renovating)







dat *** doe

nitro blade fitment

ks drag brake kit i love how it looks lol

ready to slide the swap in

15 minutes later...lol

did a leak down on the motor it was leaking almost 80% so i pulled the head off put some coolant in the chambers and what do ya know the valves arent seated whatsoever the kid i bought the head off of had put oversized valves in it and didnt tell me so when i originally assembled the head i got stock size valves so thats when i took the head to headgames and dave took care of me
street tires

stopped by 4130 the other day to see how my fab is coming along and this is what i saw


excuse my buddies fat hand lol



I couldnt be happier the way it is turning out this has been my dream since i was probably 15 when i started going to alot of the OGS events and saw all of the sfwd guys now that im gonna be in the lanes with them it just makes all this hardwork and money that ive had to spend to get it the way i want it that much more worth it to me! This is just the beginning i plan on getting an actual trans over the winter there just soo damn expensive i couldnt swing it right now,twin scroll mani,bigger turbo and a better fuel system but for right now i think itll be fun to say the least! If anyone has any feedback im more than open to ideas knowing alot of guys on here have been doing this for a long time ill take the advice thanks for looking.

 

working on getting the pictures transferred from my phone to photobucket but its not letting me for some odd reason ill try to get them up asap

 

Wow! That's an impressive build. What shell is this motor going in? Whatever it is it's gonna roll son!

 

lol thanks man! Its an eg hatch.

 

nice build, "youngest in the field" how old are you?

 

thanks man and 19.

 

"just normal teenager" haha hardly. When I was 16 I boosted my EF hatch with a junkyard turbo and pvc charge pipes lol. You've built a top notch big money car! Looks good and enjoy it!

 

haha yeah i wouldnt say im a "normal" teenager by any means instead of partying and stuff id rather be making money or in the garage lol. But thanks man i definantly will!

 

Nice build.

 

def a nice build…good luck with it

 

thanks man. your preme right?

 

Good to see a new SFWD car competing next year! Good luck on finishing your build!

 

Thanks man!

 

This ^^ is me in a nutshell haha. Very nice build

 

Haha glad someone agrees with me besides my dad. But thanks man i appreciate it!

 

Cool build, I wish I could build a all out SFWD car!

 

Great job on buckling down and reaching for your goals.

 

Thanks man and trust me so do i lol. This is like a quarter of what the big sfwd guys have but its just to get my feet wet and than ill upgrade later down the road

 

Thanks boss i appreciate it!

 

ive been having second thoughts on keeping it legal and have fun at the track or keeping it a street car. i went to wcf this weekend and walked through the pits most of the time just checking out different setups and what not and it just seemed like i seen alot of cars getting the heads pulled off,trans pulled out or the whole entire motor and trans were out of the car because something broke and i dont think id be able to swing that financially. i mean i know this setup wont be competitive but i dont think itll be worth the time or the money trying to make it competitive. i still havent gotten the cage done yet so idk if i should hold off on trying to play with the big boys until i get a promotion or something. whats some of your guys inputs on keeping it legal at the track or having a street car?

 

Racing is expensive and stuff breaks a lot.... It's gonna be hard being the little guy in a sea of big fish. In the end we do it because we enjoy it. If it is what you love you will never regret one minute of it or one dollar spent.

That is my experience....

 

Yeah you do have me there ive had 10 second cars that i dailyed lol and it broke so much it was annoying but i loved it. But yeah eventually ill work my way up i think im going to just stick to my plans and keep it at the track. Thanks for the input!

 

i have a quick question for the guys that are currently running sfwd. what suit would you guys recommend? i know theres 1 layers and 3 layers im just stuck on what to order

 

You could easily be competitive in the 10.50 index class, which is a great class to get your feet wet. You still would need some sort of cage.

 

ive thought about it and my dad said the same thing to me today but im just gonna man up and get the cage done and play around in the sfwd class in 2014.
