Definitely, It wont change who I buy from regardless. We still have to support the legit companies so they can actually come out with original parts. Were getting a bit off-topic. JOSH! Hows the 14 holding up, she almost to original condition?

hell no that junky sits untouched. Josh has a new love in life besides the s14 and rosy palm... For which I will not speak of... but it does have something to do with young underaged boys....

i went through this whole thread yesterday trying to get some ideas for future plans and i have a question to ask you.

i see that you arent running a MAFS. is your Power FC a D-Jetro? and are you running a MAP sensor?

Well Its been a while since I updated this.

March:
After Pro Am Las Vegas Round 1 I had a bent spindle and some body damage. I had to make it to Top drift round 1 five days later. Got the car frame pulled out by Spring Mountain Auto Body. The spindle was another story. I had to heat it up bend it out and try to align it. Kyle at DDS heated the spindle and bent it out the best we could. I got an alignment and have been driving it the same way since. I can feel its not right when I am at lock and I can tell it doesn't have as much angle going left.
Before..Straight

after angled

Ended up being 5th at top drift
April:
I went out to top drift after replacing a blown turbo gasket I blew at the Vegas drift in April. Because the turbo studs came loose.


At top drift I blew my z32 trans and got another on in the night before the comp thanks to Kyle from DDS Performance.
 
May:
I was planning on just taking it easy not doing much and chillin'. Then I had some random idea to drive XDC Las Vegas two days before the event. I then find out the turbo has melted my oil return line and water lines... So I do what I always do. Go overboard on things. i got some exhaust wrap, a turbo blanket and some more lines. The reason it got so hot is I had to go three one more times with Briggs at Topdrift round two. but I won that battle so it was ok.
Paint was burnt so was the hood


Pictures of the lines






I will take some pics of the setup tomorrow and post them
