there's nothing about that car that makes it an infini...

there's so many T2's for sale locally that are in better condition that i have no clue why anyone would want to spend the money importing one in sight un-seen and then end up driving on the wrong side..

importing a vehicle that you couldn't get here is one thing.. but to import something that you can, just to be on the wrong side is kinda a fad..

People buy cars for their own reasons. Braden wanted a car that he could use for drift and not feel bad for wrecking a mint car (if that happens over the drift season). BTW, what is beat about the car?

It would've been so much more expensive to build this car if it were a domestic LHD RX-7. If you could even find a local RX-7 this modified it would've been twice as expensive. How much do you think this car costs and how much are local T2's in good condition?

While the car is still in Japan, he took advantage of inexpensive aftermarket parts like used wheels and bucket seats (not pictured), you couldn't do that in Canada.

It was listed as an Infini Ver.III at auction, so sorry if it was wrong.

How so? The engine bay looks a bit trashy, but you don't get pics of under the hood at auction, and other than the rust on the fender, I don't really know how it looks that beat?

It didn't really matter to me if it was a Infini or not. I wasn't very successful finding out what makes a RX-7 a infini, would anyone mind enlightening me? How do you have any Idea what I paid? I was questioning the car myself, but anyone who has been through the auction process before knows that you only have so much time, I bid super low and won. I truelly don't care about being on the right side. The guys at Import Concern are good freinds of mine, and I like to support them. I bought the car based on the parts it had, I looked for local cars to, there was no way I could get everything I wanted into a car from here. It was bought to be a drift car.

Just took a closer look at the pictures tonight..
The car COULD be an infini.. but there are some discrepencies..

The infini iii was available in white or black, the iv was a dark green, which looks similar to the original colour of your car before getting the purple..

The infini originally came with black suede bucket seats.. this car has stock leather seats.. however, the infini seats can fetch quite a high price, so I wouldn't be surprised if they were swapped out..

The door panels were covered with the same type of suede material as the seats.. hard to tell by the pics, but it appears that the door panels are indeed correct..

the infini's had side kneepads which the car in the pics have

however, the pics also show that the car had rear seat installed.. while all the japanese fc's had rear seats, the infini's did not come with rear seats.. only storage buckets..

other things that made the inifi stand out from the other turbo models were -

Factory front strut bar, special 16" inifi mesh rims, suspension changes, exhaust changes, changes in carpet, sound deadner to keep weight down...

So in the end, it's kind of a tough call to say for sure if it was a real infini or not.. But it doesn't really matter since if this really was an infini, then most of everything that made it an infini had already been removed or modified ....

It sounds like you feel you got the car for quite a good price, and in the end, that's all that really matters.. have fun with it..

forgot to mention, the infini's also came with a 4.3 diff, rather than 4.1 :)

the RX-7 is also much harder to drift then a 240SX, and unless you want to seriously tweak the suspension geometry itself, you won't be able to get as much angle even with crazy technique.

I will work on the suspension when it gets here, was never really a fan of FC then I gotta drive one and enjoyed it.

http://fc3spro.com/TECH/DRIFT/dori.html


This is primarily the main competition for the FC3S. Although the FC3S chassis has an almost perfect 50 / 50 static front-to-rear weight balance, it's low polar moment of inertia makes it a handful to control, especially when drifting; the FC3S tends to spin and oversteer very violently. To control to low polar moment takes good suspension tuning and a very skilled driver. It is a lot easier to start with a Nissan S-chassis if you're a beginner, as the higher polar moment of the Nissan S-chassis makes for a slower response when drifting. The Nissan S-chassis has longer wheelbases, and this makes for a more stable platform; the wheelbase is significantly longer than the FC3S - up to 5 inches.

http://fc3spro.com/TECH/DRIFT/DCOMPARE/dcompare.html


The Nissan S13 / S14 has some obscene steering angle stock from the factory. The FC3S just cannot compete with the steering angle in stock form. Measuring off turntable bearing plates under the front wheels, we measure the steering angle as the wheel is turned "out" to max steering lock. The S13 will have between 40° and 45° of steering angle. The FC3S will only have 35° to 40° of steering angle. The Nissan has at least 5° of extra steering angle to use. Luckily, we can add that 5° of extra steering angle by shimming tie rods off the steering rack on the FC3S with spacers. Maximum spacer thickness is 0.30" (thanx to Ho Mastah!), so 1/4" or 6mm is a safe bet.


The other, more time-consuming method to get more steering angle on an FC3S is to relocate the tie rod to hub connection point. This increases steering angle and steering response, as it changes the steering ratio significantly. We're getting up to 50° and more steering angle with this mod! Here's some pics that explain this mod...


This is where the S13 / S14 outshines the FC3S for drifting. The S13 / S14 rear suspension is a "double wishbone" design. The FC3S uses a multi-link trailing arm design. Adjustable rear links are popular for the S13 / S14. There is no real easy way to adjust the rear suspension on an FC3S with the exception of an aftermarket rear camber adjust bar that has limited adjustability on rear camber. Due to the rear suspension design, the S13 / S14 is very stable while the rear is sliding. The FC3S is not as lucky in terms of drifting, but the FC3S is superior in terms of regular grip driving. Once the rear end starts to slide on an FC3S, an oversteer spin is quickly induced.

so you can Shut the Fuck Up..

Go find yourself an RX-7 and check everything he says. Its true. And obviously you have never drifted anything before, including your little MX-3 (those jokes just write themselves), because you can't recognize the importance of anything he says.

no i have never drifted anything before, and im not going to make some BS up. Why the fuck would I wanna "drift" my mx3?? lol, I thought you learned from the last banning about posting BS you read on hondatech and give out false information, guess not.

Honestly i dont understand shits that he's talking about cause its pretty technical, im no pro. everyone can post some fucking shit up they found from other sites and claim that they know everyting.

I'm not saying what you found is false, but it pisses me off that you are trying to tell the guy what he should do,yet you know fuckall about it. If you have had experience drifting then i'll shutup (your talon doesnt count, cause everyone can pull the handbrake).

btw: i also have 2 FCs... and a 300ZX TT ...

Why the fuck would you want to drift your mx-3? why the fuck would I want to drift my talon? why would you point that out at all?

then let's look at the epitomy of the drifting hobby and count how many 240s are in it, and then compare that to the number of RX-7s in it. I'd consider those drifters to be more practical then this guy is, and the consensus seems to be that the 240 is a better drift car.

I could school you on the meaning of polar moment and then you will realize where I was coming from when I said "the rx-7 is hard to drift" and then the steering angle part should be fairly obvious, you have to countersteer to drift, you get more props for an insanely steep angle, and the angle is limited as much by steering as your technique.

so obviously you have never drifted anything before. Thats what im trying to get at. Like i said, if you have first hand experience then i'll shut up.

first hand experience should be the second thing you learn about anything... the first is the lessons of people who have gone before you.

I've driven an RX-7 before and while I didn't drift it there was a definite habit of the back end swinging out violently.. if you drove it properly it was enlightening, if you weren't smooth on the controls it would kick you in the ass. That's the extent of my first hand experience.

04-06-2006, 11:29 AM
whoa whoa hold your horses.....

talking about steering and fc's unable to drift. ok i have seen alot of fc's drifting and its not that hard. but if you want to know, to increase ones steering ability all you need to upgrade is your tierods and ends. wow a total of $200 and you can get more aggressive angles for drifting.

pick up a decent lsd, coilovers, and your set. open diff drifting isn't that hard either, you just can't hold your drifts that long.

First of all, b_t, I appreciate the information you posted, I think i will mod it to get more streering angle if it isn't already done. Next I have owned and drifted a S13, did you see my sig? I also have driven a FC before and I did not have traction problems, I really enjoyed the feel of it, I didn't find that it wanted to overstreer any more than my S13. They felt very much the same. Anouther reason to pick FC over S13:

http://anglefactory.ca/driverprofiles.html

There is 4 S13's already, not to mention that there are many more that I know of, I wanted something that wasn't as big of a fad, something different.

Anyways....

no power anything,
no radio no speakers
no power steering
no ABS no power windows
no rear windshield wiper or squirter s
tiffer springs a front strut bar eliminated rear steer special lightweight seats special 16" BBS mesh rims with the Infini "Lazy Eight" centercaps
All Infini's came with an aluminum under cover that located behind the Fr. crossmember to cover transmission area

and no fog lights.

Infini's did come equiped with power windows and power steering.. there were a few Inini's that were equiped with A/C, but as a dealer option.. DTSS (rear steer) was not removed.. The aluminum shield you speak about was not an infini only option... in fact, my 10ae came equiped with one..

but whatever, not worth argueing about..

but whatever, not worth argueing about..

My mistake, but I've read on a few site's about them, and my friend happens to be a walking RX7 historian and he also told me some stuff, so I was just going by what he said.

Yes, because how many friends you have on an Internet forum automatically decides whether you're right or wrong.



This debate/argument is starting to suck very badly.

no A/C
no power anything,
no radio no speakers
no power steering
no ABS no power windows
no rear windshield wiper or squirter s
tiffer springs a front strut bar eliminated rear steer special lightweight seats special 16" BBS mesh rims with the Infini "Lazy Eight" centercaps
All Infini's came with an aluminum under cover that located behind the Fr. crossmember to cover transmission area

and no fog lights.

Too much testorone in this forum, or nobody's getting laid. Nice car non the less though, Hopefully I can take a look at it this summer :love:

Thanx for the info, the car should be out lots.

Props to Braden for the wicked ride, I for one would love to see it when it gets here at one of the meets. His S13 was one of my favorites around town. I know his FC will be just as sexy :D

Thanks Cam! We saw your old car today. I got a bunch of parts waiting to be installed ;) And the FC already has some goodies.

i dont know what all the fighting is about the car looks pretty nice to me
i dont know much about drifting but it does seem like there are more 240s or silvias out there drifting rather than rx7s but judging by the wicked lookin s13 in his sig hes done that already
best of luck with your car

Was he at Autodream? Haha, he lives outta town from what I know. He's a good guy too... already gone through two sets of tires ;)

Just wait. I've got some things in motion that should land me a nice JDM car by the end of the summer hopefully.
