Still not sure about the color. I'm thinking about Grand Prix White, Imola Orange or Bayside Blue.

Interesting project! How is it now? Any updates? You got me inspired with that. I’ve been thinking yesterday to have a project by next month. Now, I just decided to search for some sources of best parts I could have. So far, I might have some Exedy Performance Parts by next week. And, complete the others on the following. I still don’t have a specific plan of what I want to make it look like. But, since I’ve seen this thread, it would be very much pleasing to have the same thing. :D :D :D

No updates for now. I'm building this car with the help of some friends of mine and we have some other projectcars we have to finish first. :D I hope to get the car ready for the painter in about three months.

I'd love to see those other projects you're talking about. It would surely be cool as the one in this thread. Good luck! ;)

Owkee, change of plans. Going for boost! It always was my intention to stick to N/A, but due to a cancelled drag project got an offer I just could not refuse. I also have to ditch some N/A parts now :cool:

*Turbo;

Garrett T4/GT40 "Blowzilla"
compressor: GT40
.70 a/r
61mm inducer
flow: 65 lbs/min 832cfm
turbine: T4
Q-trim wheel
360* thrust bearing standard

As an option the turbo was polished and coated.





*Lovefab manifold. Custom built by Cody Loveland of Lovefab. Manifold is built for 2 tial 44mm wastegates and a forwardfacing T4 turbo, includes downpipe 4" and wastegate dump tubes.



In drag set-up;




We have to make some adjustments for my car.

*2x Tial 44mm wastegates

*Greddy Type R bov



*PWR liquid to air intercooler



Some Defi toys;

* Defi Link Control Unit II
* Defi Link Boost Gauge
* Defi Link Fuel Press Gauge
* Defi Link Oil Press Gauge
* Defi Link Oil Temp Gauge
* Defi link Water Temp Gauge
* Defi Link EGT Gauge



And finally 2x Wilwood brakebalance controllers...

The car will first be built with the stock GSR engine, so I can get a feel for the car and see how the engine is performing. At a later stadium we will install the turbo set-up and dry sump system.
