Mr Reaper - ** Senshi**

Hi guys, I think a update is in order....

so a few things happend in the last few months, did a few events at the rock, one at Phakisa, and one at kimberly, and last one was Supadrift.

My qualifyings is always good, but still strugeling on the tandums, i am learning alot, slowly, but getting there.

At Phakisa I won Most tyre smoke on the event, an won my first tandum, but finifshed in top 8...

at kimberly over easter weekend things went my way and finished 3rd!

then the next rock event all went well, then me agains Riaan Stokes, me leading, i lost the drift, hit the wall in reverse, and riaan hit my nose.... I was out to say the least, but no major damadge.

So to fix the body the car is in for repears and mixing up colours a bit, not black anymore...

2weeks back we did Zwartkops, All went well with the practising, untill after one run, i had a strange sound, it became worse, and 3rd gear was gone, we initiated at about 130+ kph, so actually needed 3rd, Luckily i quilified in 2nd gear, and on the event i ran in 4th gear.... Thanks to the 2jz for the torque for me to be able to do it in 4th....
needles to say i droped out, but was still fun.

other than that, i took the car of avgas, its on pump feul now with octane booster, made 349kw and 600nm on the wheels, on 1.1 bar boost, less boost than before and more power, cant complaine about that! Turbo is spooling even faster than previously, and car is much more responsive, a dream to drift now!

PP3g4susmoderator22 Jun 2012, 18:08

Nope, not a joke, im just sick of a black car, so i think i snapped.....

Dont worry at least you can hide it in a haze of JZ smoke 😉

I like it... There is a reason drift cars are bright colours and vivid vinyls in Japland. We saw this in the past with the RC drift cars too... If you are any good it is more impressive seeing you on the track. Also how close you get to clipping points, the wall etc.

Two thumbs up! 😉 just paint the rest - it looks like midnight spares supplied the front end now... 😂

PP3g4susmoderator01 Jul 2012, 22:26

Thx mark! Yeah we saw it now as well, a dark car can hide a cars angle and line in a lot of aspects.

We did Hardcore drifting shakedown round 2 this weekend at Phakisa in welkom.
The reaper was not a happy camper this weekend... I had a loan gearbox with no 1st gear, and the car was splatering bad under boost, I still managed to qualify 5th, and won Crowd pleaser as well as 3rd place, I am extatic for the results consedering the Reaper's health!

Quensley was also there, what a gorgous car! Bad had very bad luck, would have loved to have met him!

BG, cool pics. Just make your sig pic a bit smaller, please.

PP3g4susmoderator06 Jul 2012, 12:46

Sig smaller again.

Oky so now we doing a gearbox conversion on the car, the R154 Gearboxes do not last.

ddjtreble06 Jul 2012, 15:40

What are you doing to the boxes, all the big power guys run the R154's without issues? What box you going for? I've heard the later model 350Z boxes are very strong.

PP3g4susmoderator06 Jul 2012, 15:45

Yeah well i tore 2 of those boxes up now, Going bmw 330 diesel box, heard only good things of them

ddjtreble06 Jul 2012, 15:50
