[Phantez]

This is when i first bought it a while back

[Drifte]

like the front bumper. is that semi flat black, aka batmobile black?

[Phantez]

Thats just a duplacolor rattle can flat black. Its a little dirty in those pics too. its harder to keep flat black clean than a gloss black :Hangman:

[Drifte]

use a semi flat/matte/semi gloss. less chalky, easier to keep clean and hides imperfections.

[Ricky]

work at the Ruff huh? seen it a few times. really low

[Phantez]

yeah that would be me. I hate that place

[Phantez]

For those of u who dont already know, my shit busted the other day, and while it was sitting in the parking lot i thought it was looking good so i took some pics. Too bad it doesnt move lol. I've lowered it more since the last set of pics anyway

Picture quality isnt very good, but it was just with my phone

[Ricky]

it was already too low... you couldnt pull into parking lots as it was.... you want to just throw sparks the whole time driving straight?

[Phantez]

Only when i hit bumps.
lol no really though, the only thing that ever really hits is the lip on the front and the exhaust. Not a big deal. Im not smashing the frame or anything

[s13kid]

nice wheels :yawinkle:

[Ricky]

just the sound of the lip scraping make me cringe

[JacobS]

so what was the culprit? clutch? throw out bearing?

[Ricky]

I bet you broke a spring(s) in the clutch disk..... Just a guess though.

So what was it?

[ia240drifter]

well i pulled clayton's transmission and inspected the clutch heres an answer to the question above. think i found the problem!!!! :bigthumb:

[JustinS]

Dayum!

[Ricky]

wow completely blew up haha sweet pic!

[JacobS]

dayuuuum! i wasnt expecting it to be that bad!!!

[Ricky]

looks like it went through something like this.

[Phantez]

yeah i was pretty sure i heard a noise like CRUNSKSDHFLKS when it went, but i had those 3 bikes flyin by me at WOT right then so it was hard to tell exactly what it was lol

[s13kid]

I don't believe this is your going on to a 4th clutch haha.

I wonder what will happen when I get mine all done?? Im sure yours will get stolen...

[krustindumm]

clutch kicks are bad for discs.

[Drifte]

sprung hub on the drifter?

[Phantez]

clutch kicks are bad for discs.

I usually dont clutch kick all the time, and even if i did, this disk was only 1 or 2 months old and on a stock KA so it should have still held. It actually broke when i was doing a long pull and shattered when i shifted from 3rd to 4th gear.

[Phantez]

[FiFdYnUtZ]

so do you have 4 wheels that match? or just the diff rears for when you drift?

[Phantez]

i have a set of 4 of the nice silver 16's as u can see from the first pic and i drift on those too. I just needed to bring 3 pairs of rears to drift days so i didnt run out of tires, so i brought 2 junky pairs of 15's and when those were finished off i drifted on the 16's till the end of the day

[DragonUSMC]

yeah i was pretty sure i heard a noise like CRUNSKSDHFLKS when it went, but i had those 3 bikes flyin by me at WOT right then so it was hard to tell exactly what it was lol


lawl are you sure it didnt sound like GASHUNK!

ha! that looks like a comic book me!

On a side note, do you work Phantez? seems like I always see you driving around town......
and why did you rev at me today? lol

[Phantez]

yes i work. are u sure that rev came from me? I never rev at anyone

[Deimos]

S13 kid you live near the czech village at all?

[brown7]

yes i work. are u sure that rev came from me? I never rev at anyone
Yeah, unless there is another flat black hatch running around town. maybe that guy doesn't have a job lol

[Phantez]

There is. His name is keith. This is our cars side by side. It was probably him

http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa132/Phantez/dd28_005.jpg

and just another one from drift days last weekend

http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa132/Phantez/7834_781863866443_6238517_44053501_.jpg

[brown7]

ahh, I see said the blind man. sorry for the confusion

[DragonUSMC]

Is sad... makes me wish i just had my uncle re-paint my car black with crushed glass. I think i'm not going to like any other color besides black =(

















well... purple would have been the fuking BOMB but he said he would never paint a car purple unless it was for his daughter >=(

[s13kid]

haha, that makes me laugh. The car rev'ing at you that is...

[brown7]

haha, that makes me laugh. The car rev'ing at you that is...

agreed

[Drifte]

Saw both those cars drifting last night, good show.

[Phantez]

it was alright but i was pretty disappointed with all my runs. When the track was hot during practice it was good, but at night the track got cold and stickier, along with all the freshly laid rubber from the stock cars. I was struggling keeping it sideways with the weak sauce stock KA. Ill have boost for next season though.

Videos:

Practice
http://s203.photobucket.com/albums/aa13 ... actice.flv (http://s203.photobucket.com/albums/aa132/Phantez/?action=view&current=hawkeyedownspractice.flv)

Demo
http://s203.photobucket.com/albums/aa13 ... emorun.flv (http://s203.photobucket.com/albums/aa132/Phantez/?action=view&current=Demorun.flv)

[Ricky]

i was neat to watch! how did the banked corners treat you? it seems like that would make it harder.

[Drifte]

Practice looks like it went really well. I want to see a video of it all together now. Is someone working on that?

[Phantez]

The banking wasnt too bad actually. I think it was sweet because u could carry a little more speed through the corner. Hawkeye downs was pretty flat though compared to elko speedway in MN
im not sure if someone is putting a video together, but if someone does ill post it up. I wish i had some video of the 1/2 mile. That was fucking fast. Chase tore that shit up for like 8 laps strait during practice till his engine started knocking. Thats why he wasnt in the demo

[Ricky]

nice. that will be a fun car when its done

[Drifte]

I bet this is the car Dave is working on and why he called us for some parts at work!

[FiFdYnUtZ]

looks sweet! that extra power will be nice for the drifting!

[Drifte]

hmm, that just looks to easy. Going to black out the core?

How do you tune for this now?

[Phantez]

EFI Specialists ECU reflash and safcII for now

[Drifte]

your 5bolt flange is in, just waiting on coupler.

[Phantez]

sweet. Ill be there to pick it up tomorrow

[s13kid]

This car is really cool now. I just thought I should let everyone know.

[Domestic Disturbance]

[Phantez]

Its drives

[FiFdYnUtZ]

so.........you going to put a bumper on it?

[Phantez]

yes. i need to cut it up a bit to fit the intercooler. Just havent gotten around to it yet

[s13kid]

S13 kid you live near the czech village at all?


My sister does. I work on my car in her garage.

[AutoMods]

Clayton, what blown clutch was that? And was your clutch disc, pp and flywheel all new? What do you have in there now?

[Drifte]

I hear a lot of drifters run the ebay clutch and basically change it out with oil changes. Need to get em to run ACT's unsprung, its beefy.

haha I would think that would get old

[AutoMods]

Not to mention thats pretty dangerous when a clutch explodes, could be much worse.

Interesting that they do mail order tunes for converting an NA car to FI, theres a lot of variables in that unless they do it really conservatively and/or you have to have your setup your car close to thier specs.

[s13kid]

When he broke it like that he had an Ebay pressure plate and a Autozone clutch disk.. He has an ACT 6 puck sprung now.

[Phantez]

They have a list of ECU reflashes with different setups, then just buy the one that suits ur setupd. And yes, it is a conservative tune, but its a safe one

[Drifte]

How does it feel compared to previous power?

[Phantez]

It feels great. i should have all the power ill need for the midwest cup this upcoming season.

[s13kid]

I just kind of thought of this so I figured I would chime in.

His car feels almost identical to my friends evo. As far as how it pulls. Stock evo 9.

[IS300_DJ]

I'm curious, who did your intercooler piping?

Nice work, how much boost are you planning on running? You do have a wideband right?

[Drifte]

Charge pipe was done by the local 240 OG, he'll chime in if he wants it known. He likes to be mysterious sometimes.

[Phantez]

Some shitty video from the hawkeye downs drift demo last night. I just realized i didnt have any video on this thread since the car was boosted

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--dbzNcxLPQ

[ills13]

nice... so i know this thread is a lil old but was just wondering where you guys drift at? i would really like to find places around the c.r. area.. or even in iowa. otherwise im forced to go out of state.

[Phantez]

There isnt much in Iowa. We occasionally drive at Hawkeye downs. Im not sure what the status is of driving there this year yet. Other than that, you have to travel out of state. its worth it for most places though

[ills13]

Ok thanks for the info.. I'll have to keep $y eyes open. Was lookin into going to. Some club fr events maybe, depending on schedule and work

[AutoMods]

are you the guy with the 2jz swap?

[ills13]

I wish! Lol I just have the stock ka in it. Wana swap in an sr or rb sometime bt can't afford it right now

[Phantez]

ClubFR events are the way too go. I plan to hit several of those this year

Ryan, I plan to have the 240 up and running soon, and I'm going to need a turbo timer. You'll be hearing from me soon

[Chase]

are you the guy with the 2jz swap?

Dave has a 1jz, if you are thinking of him? He has a green s14.


OE was going to get on the whole Hawkeye Downs thing soon I think. We talked much of driving a few weeks ago.

We all pretty much know of Dave, but there's a guy on ds.net that's got a 2jz in his 240.

[AutoMods]

this guy has a 2jz, i forgot his name but I thought he was from the waterloo area

[Sleeping]

He sold the car out of state

[85XR7Project]

Yeah it was on Craigslist for quite some time.

[Chase]

ah interesting. I'd never seen that before.

[AutoMods]

He sold the car out of state

darn, why'd he sell it? I'd woulda been interested in that if he posted it for sale on here

[Deimos]

whose 240 was at the service today? Looks like my buddies car but not his. Same color and everything.

[Sleeping]

Not to sure just wanted something different. Hes got lexus gs300 now he will get the bug again and build something

[DustinsDuster]

if youre talking about the silver one with black rims that looks like Otto's- that car's Brent's- kid who used to have the CRX back when.
