Buckey's Pro-Am Build/XDC REFRESH: BN Aero FC

[driftfcbuckey]

lol thank you waylon! i was having the shittiest day, and i signed on and saw that, and got so motivated to do work! i'm so psyched!


thanks everyone for the props/motivation!

a little update (still no computer)
i managed to break both my front fenders, get 3 flats (on the same wheel welll), got pulled over for sitting in a parking lot with two chicks getting accused of street drifting (while i had a flat tire lol)
thank god for being able to go home..
but anyways i'm working on getting it all sorted out right now. my timing for modifications is retarted lol.

i bought a 6puck clutch. need to install that, and arch both my rear quarters a little higher. i need to buy another fan, or get another radiator/oil cooler/AN lines, because something is up with my end of the VMount setup. but time will tell. hopefully i can get it all sorted in the next few days. i would love to paint my car soonbut idk if time will allow for me to get it done correctly...

i'm stressing over it a little but somehow i always pull through. we'll see.
ill try to get some pics up tonight of the clutch install.

i second that v-mounts run hot especially for daily driving and ur in vegas buck get those swap cooler taurus fans u will be good on the low speed.

his problem is oil temps not water temps
but overall hes not over heating just running hot
the oil cooler is getting hot air
we want to split the central mazda oil cooler into two outside the rad inter cooler setup w/ its own fresh air

plus its dam hot out
and its not built for comfort
the ducting is not finished and his fan has no shroud and or isnt bigenough
2 small fans might be good
 but whatever its not 100% efficent yet

freakin buckey needs to keep a better eye on the temp gauge from now on....

here's what we're doing from now till saturday... motor is still flawless minus one coolant seal that pressed itself inward due to me being a dumbass and not paying attention till it was too late...

compression parts are still cherry!





prepping for paint, and cutting out my quarters for the wide fenders. my pops is on dent control, while steve is getting the motor perfect as usual. its gonna be a long few nights.

U guys are crazy with those timeframes doing stuff. Props for getting the car looking dope and running in time.  Sorry about the wall tap touchin that glossy paint but sometimes its just how it goes. Then alignment was outta wack and wasnt helping with qualifying. Did a sick effort all around!!  Keep up the good work!  See ya at rd4 man. Im always around you know if ya need anything.

Tell steve ill bring him some crab legs for working so hard!
