My cheap fc3s drift project from Switzerland

[Driftorrent]

Here's my FC's history.

I bought 2 FCs to make one.

First one: '86 Turbo

and second one for parts: '88 Turbo (series 4)

working on the car:

Result:

Then, I welded the diff, and start drifting. Full stock, f**king hard to drift, but still, lot of pleasure!

Lost my windshield wipper...

Months later, I bought coilovers, wheel spacers and a Mazdaspeed 1.5 way LSD. I also installed home made rack spacers.

Pretty good fittings^^

More angle and caster: things become interesting

Back to the track, muuuuuch better!

got rear camber ?

Funny day!

Lost a silencer...

Good reason to buy a new one^^

Portedwastegate, ported turbine inlet. 220hp!

I also installed an oil metering pump adapter with 2-stroke oil

Back to the track:

It makes a big difference! But to much power for my clutch, so...
Lost my clutch

I break things at each track day I think^^

So, bought a new Exedy racing clutch!

Then winter arrived, time to play on the snowy roads!

I had a lot of fun with friends, every night 'till... I got hit from behind!

Let's repair it:

aie means ouch in french.

Then I found a series 5 body kit:

and started to paint it matt anthracit with spray paints:

Love it I'm desperately searching for a pair of turbo II indicator/sidelight units if you know of any

 

[Driftorrent]

Thanks!

Well, I don't have any more side indicators. Il know someone who should have a pair but he's located in Switzerland. Interested?

C'est super bien fait! Le budget pour les fc et les réparations ont étés de combien ? Et çela a mis combien de temps? Je pense m'acheter une fc3s.
