Convette Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) Yeah def doing vegas this year. I sure hope so that would be a blast. I see you have similar rubbing marks. lol I recently started rubbing where the brake line is mounted on the inner fender. Cut the shnot out of my tire, had to bend it over. +1 for zip tied brake lines! http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w239/johnboy9788/20130505_115304_zps76d00186.jpg Edited June 7, 2013 by Convette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Dont Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Yah I was letting the girl drive and it was a very hot day, oil got way too thin and it started knocking. Going to slap some new rod bearings in, put the higher pressure spring in the melling pump, and put in an oil cooler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOOSTED88tsi Posted October 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 He has an ls1 haha no BSE on his car haha.Vids from this weeks event, pretty boring layout honestly but still better than tickets on the street. Id like to shout out Thagremlin for not skimping on the motor build thats in this car. Its been to 10 or so events, drove to vegas, and to long beach the weekend after things a champ.

BOOSTED88tsi Posted October 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 Hahah no its not. The cars smoking pretty bad now, so ill be doing valve seals and seeing if that fixes the issue,if it doesn't we might have another swap on our hands.

thagremlin Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) What's up buddy, it's good to see that it's holding up so well. 330hp and 409tq that's impressive, I wonder what it would have been with the setup I had. I knew I should have dyno'ed it. If your looking for a swap car I still have mine. Edited October 14, 2013 by thagremlin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOOSTED88tsi Posted November 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 From the last two events for a while. The season in nor*cal is officially over until march. The past two weeks have been a blast haha. Went to a drift event down south at Willow springs on the 2nd, and then went to another one up here on the 6th. I'm super stoked on how my car performed this year. I've never owned a car long enough to go to this many drift events in a year,(at least 10) and for my car to make it all the way to last one without breaking is great. The heater core did take a dump this last event but after i saw the steam in the car i went to the pits bypassed the core and kept running. So anyways here's some media from both events.http://youtu.be/YiM7wf_susghttp://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l150/BOOSTED88TSI/1399408_192702494249741_660755772_o_zps5be7d873.jpghttp://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l150/BOOSTED88TSI/1398071_192702484249742_1547961676_o_zps20ecd012.jpghttp://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l150/BOOSTED88TSI/966705_192702454249745_324827677_o_zpsf61bff02.jpg http://youtu.be/drnGQl6y53Mhttp://calgecko.smugmug.com/Automotive-Photography/Racing/Sonoma-Drift-11613/i-6CJPLhR/1/L/MJB_0475-L.jpghttp://calgecko.smugmug.com/Automotive-Photography/Racing/Sonoma-Drift-11613/i-QGJF8BB/1/L/MJB_9332-L.jpg http://calgecko.smugmug.com/Automotive-Photography/Racing/Sonoma-Drift-11613/i-3pSkrjH/1/L/MJB_0654-L.jpghttp://calgecko.smugmug.com/Automotive-Photography/Racing/Sonoma-Drift-11613/i-VNPqqzc/1/L/MJB_9333-L.jpghttp://calgecko.smugmug.com/Automotive-Photography/Racing/Sonoma-Drift-11613/i-TLSmbXw/1/L/MJB_9341-L.jpghttp://calgecko.smugmug.com/Automotive-Photography/Racing/Sonoma-Drift-11613/i-Rr2Nvcf/1/L/MJB_9340-L.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
