    Default My 2011 Prodrift/ Streeto spec AE86

    Well Iv finally decided to take the plunge and build a full on competition car but i couldnt limit myself to just track use so im gonna make her road legal... Kinda

    Here is what im starting with, Its a booty (Coupe)... Shes gonna be a Levin...





    Its a pretty good base to start with, its not mint but to be honest im fully expecting to crash it occasionally not intentionally but sur its bound to happen

    Im not gonna give away too much yet but shes basically gonna be a 20 valve with some internal work with 70 mill trumpets, full martelius exhaust running on management either Omex or Motec.

    Fab wise shes gonna be fully seam welded, Rear arches tubbed, pockets cut out and some other small weight loss.

    As its my 1st craic off this properly im just gonna start out with a bolt in cage and if things progress so will the cage.

    Obviously full suspension work including McnSport Avo Coileys all round.

    Interior will be a mash up of Carbon and bride products.

    Exterior im hopeing to create as mean a cam as your likely to see, In my head i think iv accomplished it but we'l wait and see, im gonna keep these plans to myself a while anyway so il let pics do the talking.

    I dont wanna give away too much yet il jst leave the updates do the talking as they role in...

    Like i said its my 1st time really getting into this so alot of learning ahead but iv pretty much the best instructor possible and cant wait to get going.

    Car is due to be on the spit some time during the week so hopefully my first update will be late next week as iv only got 10 days to get all spit work done which is full cleaning of shell, fully seam welded, Tub arches, Cut pockets and etch prime, prime and paint underside.

    And finally a big thanks to Darren at McnSport for the space in the garage during a very busy time in the garage.

    Awesome! subscribed

    If a little man from japan can rape up at Irwindale in 16v and another in a 20v then you can sure as hell do it on any track around these lands! Best of luck with this one!
