my project

[peterbarber123]

hi all, just to introduce myself and to show you my fc and a few plans too,
my name is pete and i\'m 21 years old, the rx i have bought is gonna be used in this years drifting comps, i have competed all last year but in nissans and i fancied something a tad rarer to catch the eyes of the judges and crowd etc
 
my car is a 1991 FC imported from the motherland late last year, it has a few mods already
 
2 way lsd
tein coilovers
stainless exhaust
hks filter
roll cage
stripped out etc etc
 
 
soon she\'ll be off to pip at wgt for a turbo upgrade, apexi power fc, front/ v mount intercooler, injectors, fuel pump etc etc and hopefully she\'ll have a good power figure,
 
here\'s a few pics



 
and i\'ll keep you all updated on the progress:burnout

Hello and welcome matey. That looks very tidy indeed, maybe to tidy to drift;)
Comes with some nice mods aswell, did you import it?? All you need now is some nice bride seats and maybe some drift slag stickers:D :evillaugh :cool

the car was imported by a dealer but was bought at a pretty good price.
the seat in the drivers side is a bride seat but sadly its a recliner:(
 
stickers on the way:Thumbs-up

oohhh that will be a nice car once its finished

[peterbarber123]

new steering wheel and boss arrived and fitted today and also a trust intercooler has arrived and the car and the wad of cash will be on the way to pip at wgt auto to make the car hopefully a new animal:3gears-lh

Looks like the airpump has been removed as well - keep an eye on the emissions come MOT time :yes

Very tidy though

Out of interest, how much was it?  How many miles has it done?

[peterbarber123]

the emissions shpouldn\'t be a problem as it\'ll be being trailored about this season. i paid £1900 as it stands with approx 40,000 miles on the engine but i\'ve been informed its been rebuilt but hopefully pip will sort any niggly problems out for me:Thumbs-up

[peterbarber123]

car was delivered to pip today and had a power run too
she made 247hp at the fly and 208hp at the hus, pretty pleased with that as its near standard:D
 
3weeks to go till all mods are complete:Thumbs-up

[Crazy Eddie]

Nice figures.
Must admit it did sound good on the rolling road.
Looking forward to seeing what the mods create.
All the best with it fella.:Thumbs-up

[grinder]

If you need any help or advice on all things FC, get in touch with 88GT-R...John. The man is a fountain of knowledge, and is extremely helpful. Pip knows him very well too.

hi Peter, nice to see you today and the car looks interesting. Keep us informed on the drifting (and no the seat is not for sale ). Here is a link to the info on my car that we were chatting about.
