we have both been drifting on and off for the last 3 years or so have only done 2 events this year... hoping to do as many as we can before the year is over... the car never over heats no matter what the weather is like which is good... only prob we have is the clutch fluid turning to water after a few track days in the summer time... have had to rebuild the clutch master once already... the heat kills it pretty quick... have also replaced a booster.... it does get a fair whack of street driving though so servicing those items every 6-8 months isnt that bad

well the elec power steering didnt work the way we wanted it too... we ended up milling 5mm of the block and welding in a 5mm plate but under high load it was still spitting the belt.... she sold her dirt bike to fund a new engine.... we decided to take it to one last event that she really wanted to do even if it was throwing a belt every now and then... she ended up winning her class but it was a very busy day in the pits!! the belt let go about 5-6 times throughout the day haha got it back home and let it rest for a week till i could take it to a mates workshop to pull it down.... while the engine was out we decided to get the engine bay resprayed as its had 3 different rb20's put into it and its had its fair share of oil and scratches as it sits now we have just slotted the new motor back in and it should be up and running within a few days and ready for a few events over summer... will be good to get back out there!

well the power steering bracket keeps breaking of the block electric power steering here we come have had a bracket made up to make the alternator adjustable to do away with the auto tensioner as it cant be run when the engine has no ps or air con the way its designed will have it up and running this weekend and have a full track day out at queensland raceway on monday to test it and refine it then have the last raceline comp on boxing day... going to be a busy week between xmas and all that stuff! heres a pic of how the pump sits... we actually did a whole drift day without it chewing or throwing the belt... then drove it 1 hour home haha... was rubbing on the auto tensioner pulley the whole time!

hahaha wow the first spotting... it would have sounded like ass she runs the silencer when ever its not at the track!

bit of a thread revival... thought id give it a update... car has been running great past few months.. kate landed herself another trophy over the past weekend at another raceline event here on the gold coast... got a little bit of footage from a queensland raceway morning session we attended about 2 weeks ago... got about 2 hours in before the bracket for the power steering decided to break away from the block... previously the engine was from a car that was in a bad front ender which broke the ps pump of the block and cracked a few things here and there... the weld has lasted for a good year so wasnt too phased about the breakage. Went straight from the track to our fabricator and fixed that same day and drove home! ne ways... on with some pics and vids Kates day at parklands QR drifting... first 2 runs is me and rest is kate driving

Kate scored another first place in the street class on the weekend at King of Drift... good weekend over all and no breakages... of to Stanthorpe this weekend New video from sunday and a few pics http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0WxshmBSCY and a pic that we got from the event before at parklands

not sure on weight but a 2jz is shorter than a rb... this sits about 15mm further back than a rb

yeh i fabbed the engine mounts and gb mount ive done the heat sheilding but still find that after a few track days the clutch fluid goes to shit it has some tilton race fluid in there atm but thats already starting to show signs.... we did the conversion almost a year ago and have only had to change the fluid twice so its not that bad i guess the pedal feel is alot better in the clutch since we had the slave resleeved to a different diametre u know the clutch fluid is on teh way out cause the noisy tripple plate rattle gets less distinctive haha

few more pics of the build... unfortunately we didnt get many build pics which was a shame. we were pretty much stuck into it from start to finish... took about 3 weeks to complete. Pretty happy that i nailed the wiring first go... alternator light and everything works like factory apart from the speedo and tacho but the adaptronic looks after that. Was a little confused when it came to the wiper motor wiring as it seemed to be part of the stock rb20 loom but winged it haha
