Intec Racing’s S13.5 240SX

Performance Auto and Sound

The Northwest is relatively unknown in the drifting community. Until the Formula D stop last year in Seattle, few people knew drifting even existed in Washington and Oregon. However, those in the know could tell you about Lawrence Ojas from Intec Racing. Not only is he the man responsible for bringing Silk Road suspension to the US, he’s been building sick drift cars for years. At the inaugural D1 Grand Prix in August 2003, Ojas drove his all motor bronze AE86 entered in competition. To follow up that magazine-featured car, Ojas knew he had to step up to the plate.

Team Karnage and Intec Racing SR2.2 Motor Rebuild

Posted on by

Team Karnage has been flat out alongside the guys at Intec Racing putting together a new 2.2L s13.4 SR motor. why S13.4 u ask? without getting into too much detail or pointing fingers, just ask Dean at Irwindale if you see him and get a moment to speak with him!! 🙂 Some of you SR guys may be able to guess already….

While testing at Evergreen Speedway on Thursday Dean was getting used to the car and setting up suspension for the big oval when disaster struck. While on full throttle in 4th gear the wastegate vacum failed letting the motor boost by RPM! This caused a massive boost spike blowing the headgasket and lifting the head bolts allowing coolant to flood the cylinders between cylinder 2/3 and busting the block and rods…..It was literally a worst case scenario!!

This car is AMAZING. Dean was excitedly telling me about during a quick phone call tonight before he went off to sleep. Fast. Nimble. Insanely easy to handle. This car has it all. In Deans words “The most well put together s-chassis he has ever seen.” Interesting. I am meeting with Dean and Ian Bergin on Wednesday at Intec racing and will be shooting video of the guys down at the shop and testing the car over at evergreen speedway. I am SO excited to meet with these guys and see how well Dean handles this INSANE car.

Keep a close eye on everythingdrift.com in the upcoming week for video blog updates along with EXCLUSIVE test day photos provided by our friend Yoshi Shindo over at MotorMavens. Its going to be a exciting week of mischeif and mayhem with the boys from ole Ireland. And I. CANT. WAIT!!!!!!
