My new "drift ready" S13 project.

[Geoff.T]

I finally decided to get a car for the sole purpose for drifting. I traded my e30 318i vert straight up for it. Give it a couple months. Nothing better then drifting with good fitment.



A pic from the first of many times it decided to stop running.


After I sort out the car I'll start styling it.

It came with a RB20 on a 11psi Top Secret tune. Not the most popular swap for these cars but it'll get the job done. That and it sounds exactly like a R32 Skyline.

well RB>SR but I THINK i heard the SR20 may be a bit better than the RB20. Nonetheless, thats sick as fuck. How much did you pay for the car?

Seems like it has been having lots of reliability issues?

oo yeeah.. Forgot he said that lol

Yeah, I traded the car with some 17 yr old kid in Norcal. He put it together himself. There's a lot of half assed work that went into it. I've been sorting it out for about a month now but every time I fix something 2 more things break. My current issue I'm trying to overcome is its intermittent misfire issue under full boost. As soon as I can get it running strong wheels and paint are coming.

I went into this project knowing that I traded my E30 for basically a swap. I probably wouldn't have traded but since I have that E30 with the SR20 also I found no use for the 318.


For now, thank god my BMW is reliable.

na bro its jdm

nice onevia!

RB20 is a pretty good motor.

ok this is probably dumb, but have you gapped the plugs right/changed them? I doubt thats your problem, but we had that problem in an evo9 one time, but he was 30psi on a gt35r sooooo idk if a smaller turbo will do that, the boost would actually blow the spark out or some shit. ignition couldnt keep up.

otherwise, post more shots!

Lookin good bruda! Can't wait to see the progress!

gap the plugs down to .7mm. if that doesnt fix it, swap the coilpacks out for some new ones.

very common on these engines. i've owned 3 and worked on many others, have done about 5 rb20 conversions into various cars, mostly r31s

[driftsucky]

lotta dope going on in there. gl w/motor issues. can't wait to see it up and runnin
