Blake Olsen's s13 Coupe Drift Build *Not as cool as my FC, but also with a v8* !

[hinrichs]

I was thinking bout how you mounted them after I said that thinking that a big one wouldnt have worked better. Im just always looking for better cheaper options than the ridgids for my jeep which are nice, but way too expensive.

tits!

Lol thanks

This build gets better and better. I think its starting to compete w/ your FC in terms of cool-ness! STRONG WORK!

I hope not haha! but thanks!

would love to see how big of a bar you could have fit for the lights, a 40 or 50" would have been crazy. What brand are they? spots, flood, or dual beams?

The hard part about that is that theyre both mounted on the outward angle of the stock headlight so that wouldnt work. Theyre from a guy here in vegas, made for offroad stuff predominantly. I believe they are spot-flood-spot-flood.. per LED so i guess thats dual? haha

I started school again yesterday, but still worked on the car a little bit.

I began with cleaning up the front headlight mount braces.

Cut my rear bar in half to start fitting it..This car was hit lightly in the RR so it wouldnt line up at all before.

While I was messing with the car, I decided to check how much air my fans move with the shroud now that the were wired in again. I used the same grounds they used before and the fans were turning backwards blowing air out the front of the car! This explains why it would drastically go up in temp at slow speeds. I swear everything this kid touched is fucked up. Luckily I caught it in time and its all fixed now

Idk about the lights...

You finna get pulled over....

Love the car though, that driveway shot with the aero assembly is the life.

Lol i'll take my chances, but thanks!

I'm happy with the kit. I'm happy with the color choice. I'm happy with the lights. You have done well.

Im happy with it, too. Thank you.

jesus lord this got so much better with that aero! i love this build. now finish it!

i'm tryin!

Nice man, those lights should be stupid bright and awesome for drifting. You ever thought about wraping the roll bar with some tan fabric? Mabey some microfiber or something like that? I think it would give a nice contrast with the black of the rest of the interior

Idk how that would hold up, but i'll consider that later on

The aero kit just made shit real. I spent today reading through the whole thread, lovin' the progress mang!

Thanks!

digging the headlights dude. that aero is dope i like the color of the front bumper a lot i vote that color lol

Lol, idk I just want something neutral but different than the nor, (black, red, silver, etc.)

Only 90?! Damn man. Im loving the new lights

Yeah haha. +1 ebay

A

Interior should be all black, with a little bit of the body color paint to tie everything together I think. That aero looks great man, and it will be nuts to see this thing tearing up the streets at this height. I must have missed the info on the headlights, are they DOT approved? Looks like they are going to be bright as all fuck.

All my interior panels are black, and im gonna dye my headliner black. I kinda wanna do the interior and cage paint Gunmetal, but unsure how that will mesh with the tan exterior. I just want it to look clean. The headlights are off-road LED's, identical to what I have on my fc, just twice the size lol. They're gonna be super bright, but I can shine them down a bit. I have them mounted pointing outwards to match the hood radius so it will shine a lot of light outwards of the car. Should be ideal for drifting. When I register it I can throw the stock projectors on for inspection
