if the price is right haha

Frank at Garage Boso will be the one to tune it! I dont know if you know pro drifters but he tuned and owns the shop where the rasta style S15 resides at. Ive been talking to him for months now about what we need to do to receive 350whp and around 300-320ftlb torque. id like to have the car done by christmas.

 

There's a garage Boso in the bay area? Wow, cool! I didnt know..FML

 

no...its in Los Angeles. i sure wish frank was in the bay. it would save me a 6hr drive.

 

Update #8:
This is where the car stands as of today (11/22/11)
This past week has been non-stop. This week was dedicated strictly to finishing the crossmember for proper engine placement. We moved the motor 2inch back and 1inch down from the original fitment. We ended up managing to make the stock steering rack work with the new crossmember aswell, however we had to make completely custom mounts and mounting brackets which came out even better then I believed they could. Tomorrow we will start on the transmission mount then on to the exhaust and intercooler piping. The cage will also be re-done to 1 3/4inch tubing and built to SCCA Spec (It will still be a drift car just different spec cage). Stay tuned. I can see the first start-up happening soon. And also contact me if you're interested in the BEST quality roll-cage you can get in Northern California.

The car arrives at Cricks Custom Fabrication and we begin by moving the motor back to where we would like to see it when crossmember is finished:

Beginning stage of the crossmember:

Next we started to make the mounts for the steering rack:

Test fit was then made:

This crossmember is one hell of a piece. We actually kind of tested it with a porta-power to see if it would hold and the porta-power actually started leaking fluid and couldn't pump out any more pressure to it. I couldn't be happier with the way it came out. I hope to keep you guys intrigued as the build goes on. Thank you

 

I love everything about this car good work

 

I concur, the welds look good to if i say so


Car is coming along great risky!!! Loving it!!

Today I went back over to my friends garage where my car currently is to do my part in finishing up on the transmission mount and getting the crossmember/mounts painted for their final installation. I also decided to take advantage of the time while the pieces were out of the car to feed you some more detailed pictures so you can see exactly what kind of skill/fabrication had to go into this project. Enjoy

Here is a closer look at the finished product:

Next we painted the crossmember and transmission mount that was made. The transmission mount was made with a bow in it to tuck the exhaust a bit higher:

Tomorrow the crossmember/mounts will go back in the car and we will begin the making of the downpipe, mounting radiator, forming the intercooler piping.

 

This is looking really great..... Good work!

 

Thank you!
