So on our trip to and from the sunshine coast myself and Kevin were discussing the possibilities of what car I should buy next once the cresta sold. We came to the decision that I love the cresta too much to really let it go and I was joking myself when I said I would sell it for cheap just to see it go.
So it looks for now that I am keeping it. I still will have the rx7 for on tracks like QR that require power so this is going to be a very basic set up. Here are my plans for the car:
- Strip interior gets it as light as possible
- Order camber tops. The previous owner of the coilovers cheeped out when building these and bought the weld on tube, HKS springs and made his camber tops, and oh boy they are shit lol
- Weld Diff
- Fixed back rail D/S
- Recliner rail P/S
- Straight pipe
- Non Turbo 1jz
I choose to go non turbo 1j because I have always wanted to build a NA screamer, I always thought it would be something along the lines of a 13b or 4age. But I think this with an ecu, ITB, thinner head gasket (up compression) should see around 220-250hp at the rears. And seeing as I only want to use it as a daily/wet touge car that’s more than enough power IMO.
Current specs of the car are:
BC weld on coilover converter front with HKS 14KG Springs
Tien Rears with HKS 12KG springs
Rays Engineering MS-01's 17X8 +35
Advan AD3R's 18X9.5 +35
S15 front bar chopped to make front lip
pink lolly pop steering wheel
400mm Dildo
It’s going to be following the K.I.S.S rule. KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID.
