ive been wanting to build an frs for a while now and ryan tuecks new street car was the deciding point, so far i have the cage done, radiator and custom mount, double fuel pump setup and made my own fifteen52 wheels. i am test fitting the rocket bunny kit and my 2jz motor just came in... something a bit different from most frs builds. i am having a blast with this one, now some picsEB90FFBF-3CEF-4445-B096-6247B89BF29D_zps58C00C58-6817-4BF4-AF4C-C4EE002E7395_zps3E79182B-C66F-4DF6-B948-0BB698E4B244_zps377B68D1-A0D4-46E2-B59F-E2F14045DAE7_zpsA5FEE837-AB2D-40F5-B958-4EA358D2C7EB_zps87BBC39F-A3E0-41E8-912D-C75CB71D6713_zpsa98147e2-fcfb-4fbe-b518-3ce84f5b26ef_zps078A2A2E-56E7-4033-9D6B-69125CF5D475_zpsDC88CD05-597A-479F-9F52-1BC5A9CD889D_zps1DA7967D-2083-4ADF-90F8-B8F218B2635F_zps

Nice start Edward, the cage looks great! What is that fuel pump made from?

thanks mike ,the pumps are made from styrene rod, the brackets from sheet styrene and the surge tank from hollow tube with a cap made

That's a mighty large turbo for drifting! Perfect for drag racing though. Too much boost lag for the on-off-on throttle action of drifting.

I love everything you've done so far. I can't wait to get my Rocket Bunny FRS, until then, I'll just keep on looking at yours for inspiration.
