Right lads here go's....! Wasn't gonna bother putting up a buid thread but i said i would because i think any good build thread puts good input into the site......!


Bascially i had a disaster of a start to my first prodrift season....! I went to Fermoy and blew my clutch out of it on the first lap...! Replaced that and went to punchestown and blew me engine....! Was seriously starting to loose faith at that stage.....!

But chin up I decided instead of banging in another engine and knowing my luck it would blow up putting it in.....! I decided to basically forget about the rest of the season and build a full new car for next year......!

Above all i want to try and make this car as reliable as i possiably can....! The main thing im focasing on at the min is the body...! The cars nearly fully seam welded and is already caged from before but there will be a lot of additional bars going in to brace the frame....!

My main ain will be the handling of this car which in my eyes is by far the most important factor of a drift car but don't worry it will have bags of power also....!

Not gonna put up a full spec of what im doing as you will see as i go along because i change me mind ever 2 seconds....!

So to cut the bullshit lads the car basically went from this....!

Still yet to be finished off...! Another bit of cutting and welding to be done...!

As you can seen from underneath theres plenty of room for clearance...!

Picked up this fuel cell during the week and went to fit it...! I wanted to keep the tank as low to the ground as possiable so it ment a bit of chopping.....!

if your going more so for handling and weight distrubtion and body mods the fuel tank would be better over the rear subframe and the boot flat floored

I have a compleaty different opinionbout this podge....! Natrally your gonna have more weight to the front end of the car so my thinking of this is try and sit the tank as far back as possible....! And my making of building a car is to keep everything as low to the ground as i can....!


I know where your coming from but my thinking upon the matter is different...! Maybe im wrong i dunno...!

There'l be a complete custom loom done on the car and it will be tucked as best it can.....! I pulled an absouloute ball of wires out ofr this car....! I reckon you'l only need bout 20% of them....!

iv a spare interior ps13 loom, u can hav it if u want. did u pull much from d bay loom???

Theres not a wire left in the car lad....! Ah your grand thanks for the offer doh 80% of the car will be wired with new wires....! Only the bare nesessities will be going back in and as much as i can will be going to a switch board at the center console and there will be no fuseboxes...!

Ha....! Lad i won't be wiring this car....! Its the only part i won't be doing myself...! Il be leaving it to the experts....! You could spend 2 weeks trying to figure it out and a lad who knows what hes at would have it done in a day.....!

who be the experts? might be handy to have them in the artillary. good going robbie. good bit of time before next season, but theres still a lot of work to do, so keep bulling on with it, cant wait to see this progress.

the further back the weight is the harder it is to hold onto a drift
take a mr2 for example they,ll drift but when they go out to far the back snaps around and cant be held
its the same idea at the front when some people r fitting jz engines etc to s bodys they always move as much as the engine as possible so u dont have unsprung weight over the front

heres a ps we built last yr for time attack it might give u a few ideas for fuel cell etc

Thanks for the comments lads and sahne facebook if ya want info....!


Right lad ya can't compare a mr2 to a silvia....! The engines in the back of them and thts why they don't drift.....! Big difference between the weight of a tank and a engine lad....!

I did a bit of homework on this and my belife is to keep the weight of the car 50 50 as much as you can...! The front is gonna be heavier so im trying to put any weight in the back as low to the ground as possible....!

I dunno maybe im wrong...! Could somebody else please shed some light on this....!

why would you be putting the weight on the back as close to the ground as possible?? Corner weight will help shift the weight to the back also!!

would the hight it is off the ground make a differance its still going to be the same weight if its 2 inches higher?

no because the centre of gavity is higher. so when you go into the corner it will actually cause the car to learn more. tus off setting the handling. but podge has a good point mount it over the rear subfame as the tank on the over hang creates a pengulum effect and will make it hander to transfer the weigh:D

savage job ted, will b serious weapon when its done id say! tis great to know what your doin with a welder, theres fuck all you cant do then! whats the plan engine wise? what did u blow last year?


Best thing iv ever done is learning how to weld lad....! I blew a sr....! Not saying much about the engine yet as im still undecide about setup....! But is will be sr and it will be forged and it will be fast....! Very fast...!

Thanks lad...! I can block it or leave it lad haven't really tought about it yet tbh....!





i know i was agreeing with you:confused:

If you keep it to the wheelbase the car will be more top heavy and the weight distrbution will be even more greater to the front....!

Im finished going on bout this lad we'l agree to disagree.....! :)

Right lads udate time....! Not before time...! Progress has been very slow due to long hours and work commitments working on other cars and a facebook addiction....!

Finally got to more or less finish off my tank in the boot and sheet it off....! Still gotta just sheet off for a firewall in the back...!


I took all the windows out of the car and took anthing else that was left in the car out.....! Tbh the cage in the car is well done but i did think of cutting it out and starting fresh but it would have ben a bitch of a job and the 1 i have is fine so i decided to add some more bars as i want 1 hell of a stiff shell....! I cut trough the bulkhead to support the front strut as i feel the tubing takes a lot of strenght out of it....!

Just in from the shed and instead of chatting up 14 year old girls on facebook i said id up date this..... :p Must admit there is benifits of working late saturday as Jenny Green and Mr Spring were banging out the choonskis on 2fm all night....! All I was missing was a smoke machine and a couple of yokes.... :D

Got a nice bit done today got my firewall more or less sorted at the back and the bars brought through it to meet the bar in the boot....! Got the bit of seam welding done in the back and finished the rest of the bars....! Starting to look a little like a childrens playground but im happy with the way its turning out....!

Well if you done your homework you'd know that putting some proper side impact protection into the cage (ie something to stop footwells from collapsing) is way more important than having a child pen in the back..

Do it lad, you wont regret it!

I'd run one from the bottom of the main hoop to the bottom of the front legs... Running along the inner sill like...and then from the bottom of the front legs to the tunnel, butting it against the tunnel with a nice big plate to spread the load..

Get me?



But sure i have x bar in my doors no need for another bar along the bottom i would be protected in a smack and i dont get ya on the front legs to rhe tunnel do you mean it'd go under your feet...!

IMO you do need it, it'll make the floor sill and cage all on unit.. Now thats RIGID ;)

Yea, under your feet, look around for pics its been done loads, not just something i dreamt up :D

You could be right tidy bout it, slice the tube down the middle so its a semi circle, run it along the floor like i said and tack it to the floor too..

I know exactly what your saying alright and your right but imo the way i have the bars coming from the strut at the front i have them angled with each other all the way trough so any flex would only be between the mounting points wich will be basically nothing....! What your on about is not wrong its right....! Its just another way of doing it...! We'l beg to differ Mr Famous....!

Just a question, how small are you?? I know it's a different car but just for example when I'm sitting in the S15 the right distance from the steering wheel and pedals my head is just below the main loop which means my seat is 3-4" behind my head.

Are you going to be able to get a seat in and drive With that X you welded into the cage without being cramped?
Just looks a bit tight in the pics!

Right guys the pressure is on....! Haven't updated this in a while but iv been at it...! Really wanna be out for round 2...!

Il start by having to chop my freshly painted car up and man did that hurt...! I got a moment of madness and bought a 350z box...!


http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/ab140/Dalyboom/90bee518.jpg


I didn't really realise it at the time but these things are fucking huge....! Which led to this...!

http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/ab140/Dalyboom/eb4bdf06.jpg

Got the box sitting against the engine and started mocking up....!

http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/ab140/Dalyboom/3eafab35.jpg

http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/ab140/Dalyboom/0d95d097.jpg

Started mocking up my tunnel in the benders...!

http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/ab140/Dalyboom/a41728ed.jpg

Ended up with something like this....! Pretty big I know...!


http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/ab140/Dalyboom/bbd58cf1.jpg


Started fitting it...!

http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/ab140/Dalyboom/fd6da983.jpg

All welded up...!

The gear stick is way back in the car but it bactually worked out well because my seat is so far back its 100%


350z box compared to a rb25

Made up a new handbrake mount...!

All painted up....!

http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/ab140/Dalyboom/c6a79755.jpg


I had to get 12.5mm machined off the bellhousing of the box and i have got a conversion plate so all is good I also got a 350 z prop to make a new prop....! The 350z prop is carbon and im sick theres no way of reusing it as it would be cool...!
