Maker Faire Orlando 2022 Cars

Posted on November 23, 2022

How did I find the cars at Maker Faire Orlando 2022?

         Over the weekend I went to Maker Faire Orlando 2022. I saw some cars on display there and took some pics and recorded some video. 

      While I was taking a food break from being in the Curiosity building for 2 hours. I saw some cars east of the DJ booth. I got up and investigated to see 3 BMWs with their hoods up, and 2 drift cars. I don’t know BMW models very well so I could’n tell you what models they were. I think the 2nd drift car was a Nissan Silvia but I could be wrong.

When I walked up I started to take pics of the engine bays of the first two cars I saw.

Then I saw the Nissan Silvia drift car in the very back and was gravitating to it.

I got closer and started taking pics of the car. 

The Nissan Silvia drift car had no hood and had its engine bay exposed. It appeared to be LS swapped, which is a V8 engine made by Chevy/GM. 

I inspected the interior to see it was stripped out to only necessary components. Bare metal floor with no carpet and sight, only the driver seat, Hydraulic handbrake with reservoir on top, multiple switches, full roll cage, exposed electrical system on the passenger side, and routing of cooling to the rear. There are probably more things I may have missed.  

But alas I moved on to the rear to see no trunk lid, instead a large radiator to keep the Silvia cool. Plus a “ Engineered for Combat “ decal on the rear bumper.  

Then I walked away due to more things at Maker Faire to see before they closed for the day. 

I ended the event by taking pics of my Bronco in the parking lot before I left.

I really like taking pics of my Bronco.
