In this Carnatomy episode, we had the opportunity to delve into the intricacies of Formula Drift driver Dan Stuke’s mind numbing Full Carbon Fiber bodied S15 with it’s 900hp 2JZ. The episode offers a candid look at the development and performance of Stuke’s latest drift car.
A cornerstone of the build is its chassis, a meticulously engineered true Spec R S15 chassis designed to withstand the extreme demands of professional drifting. To complement the chassis, Stuke has opted for Konig’s NeoForm flow formed wheels in 18×9.5 et25, renowned for their strength, lightweight construction, and exceptional styling. This combination of advanced chassis technology and premium wheel components is a testament to Stuke’s commitment to performance and durability.
The car’s powertrain is equally impressive. At full chat, his 2JZ build is capable of 900HP+, but due to EnglishTown’s smaller track size he’s got it tuned down to the mid 600HP range. Basically, just enough to get around while still being lively. Fair to say, that in itself is a discussion worth having with Stuke, understanding when to go up and down in tuning maps to suite track needs and wants.
Stuke’s enthusiasm for the car is palpable throughout the episode. The new chassis offers significantly improved handling and stability compared to its predecessor, allowing for greater confidence and precision on the track.
