JSP Formula Drift AE86 rebuild
Short back story:
2011 formula d season, crashed my racecar in new jersey and totalled it. Built a new car with some good friends in 10 days. Had a bunch of bugs with the car the last three races of the season. After 2011 the car sat at my house untouched due to finances and frustration. So after almost two years ive decided to bring it back to the shop and put it together the right way. This car will be rebuilt mainly for drag racing now but I am purposely still leaving it able to turn and drift for later down the line.
I am very fortunate to be able to continue relationships with oast sponsors and am excited about their continued support during this rebuild. So I need to thank them first.
Turbosmart USA
Haltech USA
Garrett turbo
Clutchmasters
mission critical performance
heatshield products
race design graphics
Strange lightweight 9" rearend
gforce 4speed

Loynings is about to push (try) a boosted RZ Tacoma to 200 mph over a running mile course @ Bonneville Salt Flats in the next week or so....

but that is another story. John... so what are your plans... as Tony pointed out the RZ is more than capable of hurtling you down the 1/4 blisteringly quick.

Finished the trans mount and welded up all the rear links. Still need to box and do the shock mounts.
Re: JSP Formula Drift AE86 rebuild
Damn. The things I would do with that rear end... Wait, that came out wrong.

Re: JSP Formula Drift AE86 rebuild
Great work here! I wish I could afford a build like yours. I like the rear end stuff your doing. Great stuff!
Re: JSP Formula Drift AE86 rebuild
I know Gforce is mainly used for drag racing but would that trans with a stock F20 be streetable?
Re: JSP Formula Drift AE86 rebuild
Nice to see something different here. Great stuff!

Glad you're back in the AE86 headache! Awesome to see someone going a route other than expensive parts whore or drift only.
