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 :Thumbsup!




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 let\'s have fun on snow again
