Great project, it really turned out awsome Im curious how you like the Ksport brakes? And how they'll hold up to repeated track use, be sure to keep us posted on your track days. Again very nice work

No, mine is at home (in Belgium) but currently rebuilding my engine and putting a GT40R on it. Bit I get my parts from Pip and I'm often on the phone about advice and info.

Really great guy


On the billet front cover... it's availble on the market. Some company makes it in order to be able to fit a 20B in a FD with a stock subframe and keeping the steering rack in the stock position.

Incredible build.

What do you think about putting in heat sinks on the dry sump tank.

Why would I need to put heat sinks on it? It runs so cold that without blanking off the big oil cooler I would never get it up to temp!

I have to blank of half the rad too to get the water temps up aswell!

Looking good there Matt, good to see your spreading the word! However I think what really makes the car is the super shininess of it, not to mention the outstanding photography on some of those pictures

I'll bear witness that this car drove to the (grumpy) noise test guy, the car was tested, and passed!

Take a look at Matt's link above, and he's got some of the video's I took of the car listed as favourites too

I've decided it to make it one of my top priorities to ensure that over the following months, there are many, many video's of this car from many different perspectives. Matt doesn't have a say!

Beautiful build!!!!!!
if possible do you have other pics of the drysump cover, from the pics of the oil pan I assume those are the pick ups.... Do you have any worries about anything hitting it and ripping off?

Also where can I get more info on the throttle bodies.

The TB are Jenvey if you want to google them

Do you mean the front cover? Or the sump plate?

No the pick up's are above the level of the subframe and I run a splitter all the way under the subframe too
