      • Sup guys been awhile.

        Since the last time I came here.. I have separated the military. Was a great divorce I left on my own terms with honor. I however still live in Japan now permanently!!

        Much has happen as you all know the life of a drifter.. The past D1 season was not good at all for me. battled many engine and tranny issues but developed a solid chassis full of suspension goodies. When I was not swapping engine the car actually drove damn good. Before switching back to the S-chassis I drifted my RB25 for four years and daily drove it all over Japan. Not a single issues for engine or box.. SO................... I am now dropping a RB26 into my Sil80 which is near completion having only started about 4 weeks ago. Having my R33 assisted as I was able to grab certain parts from it. My sponsors helped a bunch also with parts. The Rb26 will be powered by a GT3540r Single Turbo. Springs have been ordered also to support the new weight up front along with proper chassis mods. Here are some recent pics and final video before my last SR blew up.

            • Ready to drop in. Thanks for all the help on parts from friends and sponsors. I just started this build about 4 1/2 weeks ago and will complete it in the next 2-3 weeks. Could not have done this so fast without all the support from AFG Moto, Enjuku Racing, Zenky Racing, Hybrid Performance, Drift Tough, Gaijin Drift, Kaizoku Co. and QuickStyle. Thanks!!!! can't wait for 2013 season to start up!!


              People have already chimed in.. the top oil line is not final I just finger tight screwed it on to check length I have the proper 90 deg fitting on the way in the mail.

                    • got off work at about 1130 went straight home to finish .. Currently about 4am being solo putting the RB trans up and aligning everything took about a hour but it got done... I am not going to miss the SR at all however was such a lighter trans to throw around. This being my third solo RB trans job.... not amusing lol.
