Sr20det Sprinter Trueno Drift Project

[vibe240]

HI i'm new here , my name is Matthew and I'm from Quebec , Canada

I've been drifting since 2009 with my old s14 but this year I was tempted to take a new challenge





My friend had a Sprinter Trueno for sale so I decided its was the perfect drifting project

ironically , I had drifted against that car 2 years before I bought it



This is when I took possession of it , had a stock 4age , no more coilovers , ajustable arm , overfender etc , back to stock .


First thing we did was remove the 4age engine , not that I think its a bad engine , but its was was wiser moneywise to put my old s14 sr20 in it


replacing the 4a by this



Custom engine/tranny mount based on the JSP Kit , we had to make somne modification because the turbo was hitting the mount


Took about 10 minute and the engine was in


Intercooler fitting


nice 86 garage



the car came with shitty oem spec shock/spring and since the car will be used for drifting , I wanted something better so I ordered these
, I'd like to thanks Parts Shop Max for their help and great service


Ordered Ncra and T3 knucle too



The car originally had a cusco bolt in roll cage but the car was to be used in pro drifting , soo I had to get a full welded cage .













So this is how the car sit now , new hood , dmax overfender .



Wheels are going to be diamond Racing Steelie 15x8 0 offset all around, should get them in 2 weeks

Car will be painted satin black with white wheels

I'll give you some update in the following weeks and during the 2013 Drift season .
