The New 86 - Project Hacker

[Dfectd_Drftr]

Hey guys and girls, UPDATED FIRST PAGE LOOK DOWN!

After being out of the scene for multiple license losses and a numeral of 28 demerit points I finally decided to buy something sensible. Now Im bored and decided my life wasnt complete without an 86. I guess Im the ultimate 86 enthusiast and build 4ages, V8 and modify vehicles for a living. So I bought a JDM car to strip for parts and running gear and then bought a fairly stripped bare shell (the old JDM garage purple 86).

I have owned the car for around 3 weeks and have already got this thing looking clean again. New specs are as follows. Car is now built for hill climb and sprint racing and will most definately be going into various tyre walls and barriers so 'so long' to how clean this thing is.

Got a few sponsers together and we have come up with this...

-JDM garage shell
-T series disk rear end 2 way LSD fully rebuilt
-T50 rebuilt
-4age 16v rebuilt with porting and polishing
-Microtec with hand controller and BeeR
-Rota grids
-TRD rear suspension
-S13 front end with Tein coilovers
-Alloy radiator
-Fixed back and recliner
-Replaced acrilic windows with tinted glass (thanks to JUSTINT)

Car is undergoing some serious work and I will only post pics when done. Im hoping this will be a bit more driveable than it was before and its looking very fun already.

Thanks...

[Dfectd_Drftr]

Right then lads update is worth it now...

Been putting some serious money into this thing... Helps being a mechanic though... Wiring will be done with fuel system and running by Friday next week. Car is now not for drift and will be alligned for hill climb and sprint/ khanas. Hope you all like... I love building 4ages so I decided to go back to something Toyota and threw the dirty Nissan idea out the window lol...
