• DriftDay 24, HOT HOT HOT... I was getting BAKED in the helmet under 90 degree socal sun with no A/C=  Car is having a lot of understeer even with the Falken Azenis Sport in the front and running -2 degree camber. Talked to Taka Aono, a professional D1 drifter, he suggested me to run -3.5 degree camber in the front and mess around with tire pressure to get the handling tuned right. Right now, I really have to toss the car a lot to get it loose or else I have to ebrake and clutch in.  Good thing is I am hitting the course pretty well. In the last few runs, I was hitting the lines, angle, and speed perfectly. Probably in another DriftDay or two I can trail for DriftDay Advance .

  
  

  Car Engine is getting a rebuild. Fully forged racing piston, rods, new studs, all gasket seals replaced. 3 angle head port and polish, new valve, spring. Turbo the KA with boostdesign turbo kit. Probably gonna stay with 7psi for a year and then upgrade the turbo from a Super T3 to a T3/T4oe and run at somewhere around 350-400rwhp. Project D-Club is finally started.
