Thought I would share some pics of my buddies FC. Hes planning on clearing 700hp on 2 rotors, daily driving it, and taking it to mainland to shut up the pro-draggers like HKS and Apexi. In a few years he will take it back to the US and whop ass with it there. Hes looking for 8-9sec 1/4 mile times. The car is 100% built by him in his shop and hes pretty much fabbing everything as you can see in the pics. I try swing into his shop at least once a week to check out the car and its progress. The guy knows what hes doing, im learning alot by stopping in there, really cool guy. Best thing about it, hes not afraid at all to share what he knows and how he does things. He will tell you anything and everything you ask. I appreciate people like that :) anways, let the pics speak:

that wasn;t a lambo door hinge was it, and don't turbos have big exhaust outlets for a reason, like not to be immediately stepped down to 2 1/2 or 3" . other than that it looks like some nice stuff

In Okinawa, no the drag scene is pretty much non-existant. Some people say yes, there is a drag scene, I say the ---- doesnt exist. The 'strip' isnt even a full 1/8 mile and at the end of the track is litterly the side of the mountain. If your brakes fail, your fucked. I would never build a drag car for Okinawa. Just me. Not to mention the 'strip' is also the same place that they drift and we are doing auto-x on. Same exact track. However HKS and OMEGA hold drags at that track and I believe D1 has ran there as well. If you wanna talk drag on the streets...thats another subject. He intends on DD this vehicle.

yes, its stepped. im not sure on the resoning of this or the exact size, but considering the guy is one of the few go-to guy for rotaries on island...im pretty sure he has a reason for it. I will forward him this link, maybe he will chime in. Hes a busy guy, hes still active duty, has his shop and between him and a friend, they hold down a full blown shop along with building there own car(s).
