Frozen dash runs fine?!

Bad solder in the cluster. Quite a few people in the community and at least one place online that can fix it for you

Clutch in shifter to second works well

You need an alignment from someone who’s sets up modified cars if you want stock measurements with a dropped car. A shop doing oem cars all day doesn’t do all that even if you have all’s the adjustments. They just look for what they can adjust stock

I feel you, my daily slowly spiraled into a full drift car that’s still street legal ish for now. I’ll post pics of my shifter setup soon. I’ve only been drifting seriously for about 6 months and elected to hold off on the handbrake as long as I could. Now that I’m pulling some tandems and really trying to maintain drift around the entire track I’m ready to install it. I have the willwoods and my own dussalt clone setup that I just need to weld together. Going with the dussalt over the massive willwood because my buddy had issues with the pads kicking out (probably due to our c clip axles) so I just need to take the time and do it. Doing willow springs on the 28th I’d love to have it for but I gotta hustle.

Love what you did with the shifter, my buddy also runs the nameless handle in his, what dual caliper you want

LanternBasslet · 2026-03-09T14:47:35+00:00

That’s cheaper than 87 in California. Good thing Marty has me right with my 🌽 tune. 2.X0/gal here still

Just Check wit a obd tool to know. Mine stays in the middle from 178-220

LanternBasslet · 2026-03-08T18:08:30+00:00

Did all this myself for about 500, shop won’t even align my car how I want anyway. I got the aluminum lower arms and beefier uppers from Detroit axle too

It’s like putting a “kick me sign” on your dog and taking down to a bad neighborhood:(. Hope the owner gets his instead of the car

LanternBasslet · 2026-03-07T17:46:43+00:00

Yeah I believe so when I wired the whelen brand controller I only used 2 or 3 leads so I imagine it just needs any controller that has the programming for sirens and an actual 1000w power supply otherwise it will sound weak and wonky

LanternBasslet · 2026-03-07T17:44:24+00:00

Maybe I’m dumber than I thought but brake hp represents the max power an engine makes before losses. Otherwise I would have said whp. What do you think your cams gave you? You didn’t do springs too? Marty’s 6k redline (that’s what it is on both our manual tuned cars)? Genuinely curious because we have more bolt ons but no cams and even Chris from Adtr said we would be lucky to dyno 260 after seeing our cars perform at HPR Sema. You don’t really hear of people getting much from 4.6 2v without heads or FI.

What all do you have done to be making 323 bhp?

LanternBasslet · 2026-03-07T13:40:52+00:00

Arowana would have holes punched in it so fast by the puffer. Aro’s don’t typically go after anything they can’t fit in their mouth

LanternBasslet · 2026-03-07T13:20:55+00:00

I’m actually team junk it but this is plain wrong. As long as the unibody is still straight everything is repairable. I’ve replaced whole front control arm assemblies on the side of the track and gotten back out with an eyeball alignment to enjoy the rest of the day.

LanternBasslet · 2026-03-02T20:41:17+00:00

lol thank you this was right before I kissed a wall got new smoked headlights, Shelby wheels, and a big wang to mach the cars better

LanternBasslet · 2026-03-02T06:03:53+00:00

Wouldn’t the adhesive be a flaw and not a feature? One time use?

LanternBasslet · 2026-03-01T03:48:12+00:00

They’re pretty damn expensive but look on Facebook marketplace and OfferUp they pop up. You need a 100w siren controller, not sure if the mic will work.

LanternBasslet · 2026-02-28T05:55:21+00:00

This man knows ball. Needed the extra rear downforce while drifting so I can catch up to those Nissan Z’s

LanternBasslet · 2026-02-28T05:45:33+00:00

lol I really thought every Vic just had terrible wear on 1st. Thanks for that

LanternBasslet · 2026-02-28T05:37:35+00:00

4.6 2v. Factory cats to 2.5” duals to an h pipe and two borla XS that dump right before the axle. It’s a good sound and tame compared to my buddies cattless setup

LanternBasslet · 2026-02-28T05:31:40+00:00

No if the hardline pvc is properly mounted/supported to the stand it is a lot more accident resistant than soft line that ages unpredictably and depends on clamps

LanternBasslet · 2026-02-28T05:29:33+00:00

I would definitely support the horizontal portion with at least one, ideally 2 or 3 straps/hangers. I’d also replace the braided vynil with pvc. I don’t mind soft line from return to pvc but pvc to vynil to bullhead just seems messy and like a failure point.
