@Louie: awesome man keep it up

@Dino: how low are you that you couldn't get that much out for your caster??

and what brake set up are you running if you don't mind me asking haha

[Skizzup]

current right height in the front. basically with the tension rod shortened all the way, he was barely able to squeeze out that 1 degree on caster.



im just running hawks, brembo rotors, stainless lines. haha bbk is in the future.

[davieTGB86]

ha that's weird...
you should be able to get more than that out of the rods even though its that low.
looks nice btw haha

im looking into going fc calipers... but we'll see

[HingaSPL]

Real Drifter?? Dunno about being a "Real Drifter", But I do like driving the hell outta my cars

1. Chris Kelley a.k.a. "OkinawaLevin"

2. Currently have: (but have owned Cefiros, Silvias, 180's, JZX81, and 15 86's)
a. AE86 Levin coupe
b. AE86 Trueno coupe
c. RPS13 widebody
d. R32 Skyline GTSt

5. The way I like it, don't have time to figure out numbers and specifics, every car handles differently. I set it up by feel and tweakin

6. Been awhile, currently getting ready to move stateside

7. Had a fat officers wife hit me head on in my old 32. Worst drift crash would be on the street in Awase, came in hot into a two lane corner in the rain and tapped the high curb, pushed my front pass sus into my firewall

8. 1.My Brother and guy who taught me and most of the Hinga family : FatDaddy
2.William Kisela, cause he is loose and drives like a beast
3.Pablo from Team Splash, you really gotta see him drive to really appreciate his style, I cannot describe it
4. Favorite Pro would be: Ueo, the guy had passion and built and tuned most of his rides, unlike most of the "Pros"

This vid, during the practice runs my Truenos timing belt snapped and I had shaved the head so much, it Honda'ed, so even putting on a fresh belt wouldn't fix them bent valves. I borrowed my friends wifes car a 5 speed R33 4 door that was sitting int he parking lot to drive the rest of the comp.

More vids on my Youtube Channel, just look up Team Hinga

team hinga ftw man haha

Thanks Davie, I'm headed to the east coast to hang with the Team Hinga East Coast crew for a couple of years, before coming home to Oki. Looking forward to building a LHD 86 and hopefully build a 60's or 70's Firebird. I wanna slide a Firebird, hahaha

[davieTGB86]

hahaha like smoke & the bandit

[HingaSPL]

hahaha like smoke & the bandit

That is EXACTLY why I want this car, haha. One of my favorite all time movies

Get a 18-wheeler while it at it too haha

[HingaSPL]

Might have to settle for a big pickup truck and a enclosed trailer, would be cool to cruise in an 18 wheeler though.

[davieTGB86]

whatever works right?? haha

[John H.]

EDIT:Sorry

[davieTGB86]

cool vid but not the place to post it man...

post it in ae86 vid post

[Shinchu]

HINGA!!!!!
what up chris its chris lol
good luck sliding an F body. i tried with a 98 camaro and it SUUUUCKED! no angle. too heavy. hard to find stiff suspension. and did i mention no angle? might be easier to correct that stuff on a 2nd gen but gawd its too much work compared to what is so easy on ae86 to get it to slide.

anyway on with the stuff...

chris aka Shinchu
i used to drive this


then i moved to japan and bought this


then i sent all the parts home, rebuilt it on a 240 chassis, then sold it (DERP!) to buy this (for some stupid reason... just wanted 400 LEGAL(?) hp lol)


then i sold that to return full circle back to another ae86, a car that i truly love

yes its SD9K's old blue hatch.

3. currently running a stock 20v bt, TRD(?) header (4-2-1 with tabs for oem 16v heat shield) oem ecu and icode trumpets. clutch master 4 puck and fully built weir performance rear end with spool.
4. PBM coilovers and rear links, forgot brand of front lower arms, BV tension rods, manual rack w/ power knuckles.
5. ummm... camber.
6. long time, long long time ago. still prepping the car to be street worthy so i can drive it 45 min to nearest track (adam's kart track in riverside) or if we ever get club4ag drift days going again...
7. worst crash? ehhh cant really call it a crash but it was at ebisu... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZVjt_GV39s
8. Taka Aono (taught me in my first ae86!), hibino, ueo, and back when immamura was in ae86 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrgxyE1MqNU
9. i need a gopro to take out to adams!!!

[chemtrails]

i just saw your video from fontana, i cant believe its been that long
i can see my car in the back ground

[Shinchu]

lol the funkmaster flex vid?! hahaha yeah one of the members here uploaded that for me, im ashamed i cant remember who.
yep, like i said, last track time? uhhhhh... i think it was almost 2 years ago with the camaro at adams. oh man, what a night of epic fail.
i had to purposely block out listening to the announcer during my runs because i knew he was clownin! (rightfully so, i felt like a ham fisted n00b that night)

but from the little uh... "quickies" i've had with ryans old car, i think i will have better luck next time i go to adams

[davieTGB86]

that's aweome Shinchu
keep up the driving man
we need more corollas out there repping ahah
post up videos when u get a chance to go out to adams
Stage6MS is trying to hold a drifting event soon at willow if you wanna join in on the action

[Shinchu]

well see there is this slight problem.. i dont have a trailer lol so i would be driving this bad MFer on the freeway to wherever the event is
and i was about to take a test flight to see how 70mph feels in 5th gear with 4.7 r&P.
but i have a flat front tire.
i guess thats an opportunity to buy some tires with a larger rolling diameter to make up for R+P? i love thinking out loud haha

im also looking around for (more) wheels but man these FRP fenders make it rediculous to find good fitting offsets...
anyone know how 15x9 -15 looks under FRP rears? im guessing fail.

[davieTGB86]

it really depends on the set-up you have on ur rear end and how low your cars is.
specially the pinion angle will effect the rear end the most.
ur gonna be around 4500 rpm doing 70mph with 4.7

and for your wheels 15x9 -15 probably need small spacer to fit the frp rears

[Deuce Cam]

What's the steering angle difference on a manual rack with power steering knuckles vs. manual knuckles with a 25mm lock spacer (nst, ajps, etc.)?

I'm currently using power knuckles on my manual rack, but I'm switching back to manual knuckles to get some of the feel back. I plan on using the 25 mm spacer that goes on the passenger side of the rack, or megan inner tie rods which get you roughly 10-20 mm. Just curious what the angle difference would be.

[Shinchu]

found out the front flat tire is due to a leaky valve.
air that bad boy up and wrench down the dust cap!!!! lmao

and yeah i just saw the blakc limited on facebook that has CR-01 15x8.5 NEGATIVE SIXTY!!! thats on jubiride/CBY style flares. i think neg 15 is kinda... inadequate?

as for rear its pretty low. there is a thread on Powered by Max shows them cutting bump stop above pumpkin to get some travel back. but it has adjustable 4 link rear so i should be able to adjust pinion angle if it hasnt been done already. it was corner balanced at alex P's, but not sure about the rest of the alignment.

4,500 RPM at 70mph? i duno, R+P must be even shorter because... im at about 5k doing 45mph on my back streets in 5th!
i might jump on the freeway tonight after our temecula meet. see what happens.

[chemtrails]

Sup Shinchu, you have a meet in Temecula? i should come check it out
For your reference, bro had a 4.7 in it and a 4.7 isnt that bad once you get used to it, on mine i cruise at 65 mph at 4 grand and i drive to the track like that OBD but i have 14 wheels which worst.

And wheels stay away from big junkyard wheels, they're heavy and UGGGGGLLLLLYYY

I plan on using the 25 mm spacer that goes on the passenger side of the rack, or megan inner tie rods which get you roughly 10-20 mm. Just curious what the angle difference would be.

you need p/s knuckles if you need more angle. p/s knuckles are shorter then the manual ones
p/s knuckles + spacer = more angle.
that's what I run on mine.

4,500 RPM at 70mph? i duno, R+P must be even shorter because... im at about 5k doing 45mph on my back streets in 5th!
i might jump on the freeway tonight after our temecula meet. see what happens.

u sure u are running 4.7?? remember you cant trust your cluster anymore once you put 4.7...
your mph will be thrown off. I might say your going 75mp but ur actually doing like 55pmh...
im doing like 65pmh around 4k. that with 15s in the rear. I think its different if you run 14s in the rear

And wheels stay away from big junkyard wheels, they're heavy and UGGGGGLLLLLYYY

depends dude. not all junkyard wheels are ugly. but yes they are heavy and I wouldn't run them in the rear
