haha.. yes, rpu.. the i have to say.. For a truck, either mazda rpu, or chevy s10 cyclone.. there is a guy here who has a rpu with probably 350-400hp. spanked the shit out of a fd with about 450hp. He NEVER drives it. Just rubs it with a diper. Rode in it once, if the one you build has 500hp, dam holy fuck dam.. that will be REAL quick.

You really have a nice s14 man. Ya.. i am tryin to find conversion metal fenders myself.. I dont think anybody makes them. I may have to. But i like doing it lazy way and just remove, replace, paint.. haha

You say your goin with a different build powerplant wise, Goin ka? RB, VQ?

yeah, were hopin it will be decently quick. already got the motor built, just waitin to get around to it...gotta finish our 2nd gen and then get the carb setup on the red one dialed in right, then its all turbo time.

thanks for the compliment though, but i'd give my left nut for metal fenders at this point lol. theres a member on the forum who makes them iirc.

powerplant wise, i was gonna go 2jz, but i ended up just building my 2j and sellin it for some money. had about 1300 in it and sold it for 1500 about 2 weeks ago. so now i guess im stuck with the sr lol

Haha, ive been around rotaries my entire life, so im probably one of the biggest RE whores ever. Yeah man, id definitly be interested in some more pictures of it. I found a decent one here in SoCal, but im not too sure I could sell my GTUs daily driver to fund a REPU project.

repus are great man. at every rotary meet we go to, its a huge hit and people are so interested in it, however if they knew the hell we put it through and what we did in it, they'd probably cry lol

yeah, ive got it on there. hoping to get rid of it soon!

mwilloughby87 · 11-05-2008, 11:05 AM

welllllll....i guess its time for an update on the car....the sr has been yanked and sold to a buddy of mine and the car will now be 2jz powered. Motor will be here this friday actually.

Plans for the 2j are....stock block, 67mm turbo for response and still be able to get me into the 600whp range on kill mode. Will be going with an r154, supporting fuel mods, aem, and everything else needed. Full build specs will be posted once I finalize everything for sure.

Currently the car is stripped down right now for repainting. going for the pearl white off the is350's and newer lexus'. The advans have been sold as well, and I'm picking up a set of Work CR KAI's off a friend sometime within the near future. Hoping to have the car done by the summer meet for import alliance 09.

Will have updated pics up within the next few days for you guys!

mwilloughby87 · 11-06-2008, 08:01 PM

and yes....adler mounted my 2j

mwilloughby87 · 11-10-2008, 01:32 PM

small update for anyone still watching....took off intake manifold, removed harness, and almost got the stock twins and manifold off. harness will be done in about 2 weeks hopefully.

jdm 240sx · 11-10-2008, 02:35 PM

Great build man good work.
Love the color.
And good luck on putting the new motor!

mwilloughby87 · 11-14-2008, 02:26 PM

finally got the stock twins off the motor, and got the crank pulley and everything off as well so i can change the water pump....ordering my cams and head stuff this week so i can go ahead and have the head ready to go. cleaning garage out today since its damn near filthy and on sunday gonna try and get the motor in.

few pics to get by....

s14unimog · 11-14-2008, 04:19 PM

Nioce! I love it. the car looks great too.

Keep us updated on the 2j. That install never gets old; seriously!

mwilloughby87 · 11-27-2008, 11:37 PM

not much updates lately....cold weather isnt very encouraging at all for me.

found out the paint i wanted was going to be quite expensive, so currently thinking of other color options....anyone who has any feel free to throw em at me...but for my latest purchase for the car....

specs are 67mm turbo with .84ar

should be able to get me to 600whp :-D

stlthftr1 · 11-28-2008, 10:04 AM

ohh , nice! nice build build so far , i usually don't like s15 fronts but your's looks good and the advans set it off.

codyille · 11-28-2008, 11:51 AM

WOW!!! Good build man! Can't wait to see it with the 2J in!!!

TUnity2 · 11-28-2008, 12:11 PM

awesome build man!

I am assuming you cant go any lower up front because of the fiberglass fenders? meaning if you rub that it wont flex, it'll crack.

Also, whats the rest of your footworks setup consisting of? C/Os? Arms? tire size? Dif?

mwilloughby87 · 11-29-2008, 12:34 AM

cant go lower yet, because of springs...no coilover system yet, hopefully i will be able to go metal fenders as the fiberglass ones are annoying as hell. all stock suspension as of now, but it will all be replaced before the car is ready to accept the beating it will be getting.

this time i will be trying to get some 315's on the rear on some 9.5 inch wheels. hoping i can make it happen because i will need them for sure as i already had traction issues with 275's on an sr w/ bolt ons and 15psi at times.

thanks for the compliments guys....next on the list is to go ahead and get my bc cams and valvetrain package done. 272's and valvesprings, retainers, and valves. 8500rpms, here i come!

mwilloughby87 · 12-08-2008, 12:34 AM

front clearance....

rear clearance....

gonna have to mod tranny tunnel a lil bit for the r154

and just because.....

mwilloughby87 · 12-08-2008, 12:31 PM

another update for today....went and bought my paint to do the whole care...interior, exterior, and bay. going with deep fuschia (ls1) off the koukis....should be a sexy color....white work cr kai's.

venom_5 · 04-17-2009, 12:00 PM

matt you need to update this, show them the new goods ... paint looks hawt

mwilloughby87 · 06-17-2009, 11:11 PM

so its definitely time for a maaaaaajor update. i've been slackin on updates for sure... so here it goes....

ended up getting a deal on some cusco coilovers

got the subframe removed from the car, stripped down, and painted....

heres a pic with the rear end back together and all the control arms and stuff back on. stock bushings and what not for now until I can find a spare subframe that I can repaint, and I'll be testing out the new ISIS suspension goodies on it.

got a j30 lsd as well. it came with the coilovers, and i got axles as well...ended up trading the advans and 400 bucks for the coils, axles, and lsd. i was happy lol

painting the diff color to match the rest of my accessories....

It's hard to see the flake in it, but its there when it's in direct light. The color is a custom metallic gold i had mixed up.

heres a few pics of the motor with a few parts on it....this was before I had it sent to the machine shop to have the work done on it.....pnp head, brian crower 272s, titan cam gears, bc valvesprings and titanium retainers.

Fuel goodies....-6 feed and return, dual walbros, inline filters, and 880's.....

Tial BOV and WG

and heres the real money shot.....orgy of 2jz parts and what not...

feel free to post up and questions or anything like that....

thanks for looking!

nismo racer · 06-17-2009, 11:30 PM

mwilloughby87 · 06-17-2009, 11:35 PM
