old stuff

Maft pro just came in today, I'll post up some pics once I get everything installed.
Project MA70 D-spec. If I had planned on just showing this thing off, I'd have probably taken more pictures. But I'm really only interested in getting it sideways so you'll have to take my word for a lot of things.

for those who don't know: it's the 86.5 (n/a originally) hardtop, lightest mk3 they made.

First off I swapped in a JDM motor, and kicked/ripped out everything I don't need. There's no ac/heat/interior/cruise.

I rebuilt the engine before I put her in, new Head gasket, port and polish head, valve job. N/A cams. 3" Exhaust from the turbo back, 2.5" hardpipes, spearco intercooler, Greddy EBC, Apexi SAFC II, LM-1, PWR radiator, Fluidyne Oil cooler, Flex-a-lite fans, Greddy Catch Can Aeromotive FPR, Walbro Fuel Pump, Lucas 550cc INJ's, Lexus MAF.... I think that's it for the engine.

not sure which one but it's got a LSD from a turbo, KYB Shocks, Eibach Springs, Auto-power Rollcage, Spearco Seats, Simpson Harness', no-name wheel/momo hub, irotor Drilled/slotted rotors w/ steel braided lines, Simpson Helmet. I've got to upgrade the trans to the r154 (light flywheel and HD clutch ofcourse), and then all that's left is the 1 piece drive shaft, subframe mounts, bushings (maybe) and maybe one of those baller 2.0 lsd's. Right now I've just finished up the injector upgrade so I've got to tune. but I've already got an extra set of wheels/tires to play with once that's all straightened out.

 

  I've ditc hed the Safc /greddy setup for a maft pro. I'm awaiting it's arrival. But I've gotten to drive it a bit, took it to the track 14.3 @ 7psi running rich as hell 9.8-10.2 a/f... maft pro will tune and bump 'er up to 15psi. The back end loves to go squirrely I can't understand why people are so quick to dismiss the A70 as a good drift platform, we'll see. I swapped out to my set of old tires today in preparation for some sideways practice.
