shop car Elevens' & Ace Up

[hypercrush]

Dylan from Elevens' here. Well after getting the last car done, Brianna's satin white s14


we got started on this


here is the Ace Up Motorsports shop drift car. 240SX driven by Ace Up owner Vitaly Sopkin. Its going to be a pure competition car, and you will be seeing it at Arizona drift events and national ones too.
We at Elevens' are doing the paint on it right now while it is totally taken apart prior to the built sr20 going in. Vitaly welded in this nice cage here and we painted that black.

that was masked and the interior was sprayed gloss white. its a full on track car so it doesnt need to be TOO nice but we at least wanted it decent looking.

and then started prepping parts...


and prepping...


and spraying a little primer...


and more sanding


sooooo as of right now the car is prepped including door jambs, overfenders, and the body kit. and we will be getting the engine bay cleaned up and ready for paint too. we will be spraying that the Elevens' signature color Laguna Seca blue. the rest of the car will be sprayed satin white and we have some pretty wild ideas about what else we might do as well. i will try to update this thread often if anyone cares to watch the progress and the blog will have updates too. also you can add Ace Up Motorsports on facebook to see what Vitaly is doing to it.
thanks for looking and let me hear your questions/thoughts!

small update:

flat white was sprayed on the roof/trunk/jambs/doors today. Need to get a little more paint to finish the bumpers and the white will be all done.




i took a little time to clean up the front tubs with a little sanding and filler work. they are now ready for the BMW Laguna Seca blue to be sprayed in the engine bay.this will hopefully happen this week.


so next update will be of the car all done! then its off to the track to slide it around and maybe just scrape some of the paint back off haha, thanks for looking

quick update here. we took some time off of the shop car to get DJ's subaru WRX painted:

this car is pretty sick, we rolled the fenders, fixed the cracks and breaks in his chargespeed kit and painted the body, jambs, and everything. he went for a white basecoat, silver pearl, and on top of that ghost blue metalflake. we color-sanded and buffed it too.
should be seeing more of this car in the future, hes putting a gnarly motor in it as well.

but with that done the work continued on the 240
building the motor now:



and sprayed white on the rest of the parts, bumpers, front fenders, engine bay, and the intake manifold.sorry for the cell phone pics guys

whew. k now we need to get it all put together....stay tuned and thanks for looking

Nice work!

[hypercrush]

things are moving along...

motor built and in.yay not all hooked up yet, but its sittin in the right spot

test fitting the fiberglass. trying to get it to sit right, still needs some finessing.

the ducting for the v-mount intercooler/radiator looks sick. next is wiring...ugh. and sending off the aluminum to Full Race for some of what they do best.
thanks as always for looking!

Why does the a pillar bars and the main hoop sit so far away from the a pillars and b pillars?

[VitalyS]
