Irshad Dean’s Nissan Cefiro A31 Powered By Skyline Engine

Irshad Dean of Lautoka is the owner of Nissan Cefiro A31, which goes by the registration DRIFT – a popular car at the drags these days.
What makes the car special and more powerful? It is powered by a Nissan Skyline engine, which is Rb25det.
Mr Dean is also the Vice President of Modified Rides Fiji – a car enthusiast group formed in the Western Division.
“My car is powered by Rb25det engine, turbo smart boost controller, 400hb wallbro fuel pump, 2.5 half inch exhaust system, 42mm alloy radiator and Apexi turbo timer,” he said.
“It also has chipped ecu, LSD diff, side mount intercooler, 17 inch wheels and factory blow off valve to keep it a sleeper.”
Mr Dean said these upgrades have helped him gain more power than the factory set up such as boost controller and high pressure fuel pump.
So far he has spent around $6000 on upgrades and still counting. Not all parts are available locally and therefore some have to be imported from abroad.
Mr Dean started upgrading his vehicle this year and also started racing recently this year.
He participating in the past drags and lost in finals in drag wars.
He said his aim for the next drags is to hit the 14 seconds mark
