Some good shots from last week’s trip to @willow_springs_raceway. It’s nice seeing the car somewhere other than my driveway. And getting to finally make some 💨💨 makes it all worth it. Not everything went as planned though... Video comin
I spent part of saturday helping @drewostrowski get his #1jz powered and @_wisefab_ equipped SC300 back together. He still has a ways to go, but I’m excited to see him start shredding tires again in this soon. We might be planning a visit to th
Just installed this aluminum splash shield and under tray from @z30concepts. HUGE thanks to @rennmo for sending these my way. Super high quality CNC machined, look incredible, and came with FACTORY OEM hardware from Toyota! What?! Full install and re
Just installed an axle back exhaust on the #lsswapped #lexus #sc400 to help keep the neighbors from revolting and to be able to run the car at tracks with sound ordinances. I used exhaust clamps for quick track day removal right after the axle. @thru
This is what defeat looks like. Power steering exploded and sprayed a ton of fluid all over everything. I’m sore and exhausted from working my ass off the past two weeks outside in the rain to get the car ready for #slidefactory tomorrow, but i
Before ➡️ After. Not the prettiest welds, but not bad for a first timer. Hopefully it will hold up to tomorrow’s abuse. #slidefactory #socal_sc #driftbuild #budgetdriftcar #driftcar #lexusdrift #sc300 #sc400 #soarer #uzz30 #jzz30 #fabrication #
Angle kit installed on the SC. HUGE thanks to @drewostrowski for these modded steering knuckles and UCAs. Now I have to pick up some spacers to stop the wheel from hitting the upper arms. Check out the last pic. #driftbuild #driftcar #lexusdrift #bud
New interior layout for the SC. I still need to figure out the shift boot, but everything else is finally coming together. Much cleaner than the old switch panel setup. Looking forward to @slidefactory_official this Saturday! @dndperformanceinterior
Not bad for a $30 Amazon Fire tablet that I hacked to run Torque and a $22 OBDII Bluetooth adapter. The sharpie marks on the sides of the switch panel are for window switches that I’ll be installing tomorrow. #sc300 #sc400 #driftbuild #becaused
This took longer than I’d like to admit, but I wanted to do it right. First time using a rivet gun and first time drilling holes into the chassis. Def not the last. The stock sunroof unit on a #Lexus #sc400 weighs 35 lbs. for anyone interested.
Making progress with the interior. Gauges are installed. I’m adding a cheap Fire Android tablet as secondary gauges below the switch panel reading from the OBDII port. @dndperformanceinterior race wheel and shift knob looking pretty too. Countd
Here’s my top 9 for 2018. Most of them are pretty recent. It’s been a great year for me. I finally got the LS swapped sc400 started and moving among other things. Oh, and I got married. Here’s hoping for an amazing 2019! Thanks ever
The exhaust is assembled. Super impressed with myself for my first time doing this. I still need to finish welding where I tacked and then add high temp paint since I went with mild steel. Hey @speedwaymotorsinc I got that puzzle figured out :) #race
The exhaust is coming along well. Fabricating the downpipes and getting them to meet the manifolds at the right angle was a huge pain. Making good progress though! One more day and it’s done. Then track time. #fabrication #driftcar #racecar #dr
I usually like puzzles, but this looks daunting. Time to weld up my 2.5” dual exhaust from a @speedwaymotorsinc kit. #driftbuild #sc300 #sc400 #soarer #fabrication #exhaust #racecar #becauseracecar #becausedriftcar #lexus #fullyspooled #racecar
The SC runs and finally moves under its own power. BIG milestone reached this weekend! Thanks again to Aaron @802garage for stopping by and helping install the new @bcracingna coilovers. #bcracingna #bcracingcoilovers #coilovers #lsswapped #lsswap #
