Links no work bro... From the mods i take it it's a drift project.

[jesse-92]

Yeah drift project the project part is rebuilding the motor aiming at around 450hp. Links fixed

Looks fairly neat for a 13/180.

If you are aiming for 450hp surely SR/Something not a CA is the way to go

CA's can handle it. I know there was a Blue 180 from Japland which was fucking mental. SR would be easier and cheaper though.

[jaybee]

they just need to be revved like a vtech to make the power. so it's possible, but i'd question how the power will be delivered though...

Tell zeroyon that!

Ah , this was one of my best mates sil80 , hey owned it for over 7 years , he did all the mods listed above with great attention to detail , the sil80 conversion and paint was done in mid 2009 , had the ugly ass CA front end before that!
Bad to hear the engine shat it self

Yeahh its one of the nicest sil80's ive ever come across and i dont realy want to do an sr conversion theres realy no point coz i already have the power and if i get an sr i have to start all over again.

I meant more in terms of power delivery for a drift car. I am sure it will go 450... but what is the curve going to look like?

Probably similar to this :) Good power after 5000rpm!
