Him and I are going to paint that and install it in a few days, so dont worry, I wont let him roll with anything janky. (not that he would...)

 

not that i did for like 3 weeks while it was unpainted, 4 different colors, and clearly rusting in some areas haha. and i cant even say atleast it was fast because most of that was during engine break in.

 

Nice job NOPR, Flint eh? U run around dort hw in the summer?

 

looks great! to bad i sold my 7 already, i would have been game for a few meet this spring/summer...have u ever been to any of the meets at IPS?

 

honestly i dunno what 'dort hw' is, but i go to kettering university in flint. after i go back in april ill be in flint or auburn hills year round.

only meet ive been to was the recent quaker steak and lube mazda meet, but my car wasnt ready so i didnt take it. im not even sure what IPS is, but i know ive heard of it before.

 

Yeah, leaving us for good you loser. It was nice to see you walk away from that stupid bloated overweight charger today. He should've bought the SRT-8 to have a chance.

 

DYNO RESULTS! (neat!). dyno'd the car today at Defined Autoworks on their BRAND NEW dynapack dyno. first of all, let me say this dyno system blows everything else out of the ******* water. Once you've mastered it (took us two days), it literally takes 5 minutes to get a car ready to dyno, no strapping, no backing onto some huge roller, none of the annoying ****. if you are interested in using the freaking best dyno out there and are near or willing to drive to Columbus, Ohio, contact GTORX7.

okay so onto the results. did three pulls, it ran about 13 pounds of boost, the results were all practically identical.
240.6 rwhp, 909.6rwtq (221.85)

DISCLAIMER!: THE TORQUE IS ACTUAL REAR WHEEL TORQUE WITH GEAR REDUCTION, NOT THE 'REAR WHEEL TORQUE' YOU'RE USED TO!!! to get the torque you're used to, divide it by 4.1 (final drive ratio).

okay heres the graph, video coming soon.

 

i ate a mustang GT for dinner tonight too! i just love the overweight V8 cars! the mustang guy was actually cool afterwards though. also killed a new Civic Si and Mini Cooper S, even with my terrible launches and subsequent tire roasting first gear. oh, also i STOMPED THIS PIECE OF GARBAGE silver RX-4, it had like an n/a 13b-re in it, sucker should've got a turbo .

 

Looks really good. Congrats. I do have a question though:

What's going on with the lower pass side of the front bumper in this picture? It looks unpainted/messed up.

 

I love it man, are those the TenzoR wheels? Please give me specs on the rims, offset and tire size. I would want to slam it about another inch or two and run a smaller sidewall tire but it looks great!!!!

 

the intercooler is pushing the bottom of the bumper down slightly which isnt painted, the angle makes it look way worse than it is. in real life not a single person has noticed. im just gonna paint black real quick and be done with it.

 

i honestly forget who makes the wheels, but they are some off brand (a-tech or something?). I like them because they're cheap and they're mega heavy duty for shitty michigan roads. they're all 17x9 and the offset is either +40 or +45. tires are 225/45/17 up front and 225/50/17 rear. the fronts are pretty tight and required some rolling, but the rears have lots of room for some more meat.

 

it looks nice and home garage paint jobs are teh best kuddos

 

Couldn't be bothered to take it out of the car so you took half of it with you?

 

it was shipped to me like that! atleast i knew the mileage was accurate and i had all the parts.

 

heres a teaser pic of what i did today. more when finished.

 

Such a tease, show us it all complete already!

 

good job man. Keep it going. Car looks great

 

good job man keep it up
