well, here's the APR CF wing, you've seen the W/B, and the wheels, A little more body work, fuel cell, clean up the interior, a custom 33x12x3 FMIC, and she'll be ready for some very yellow paint

oh man that car looks mean!! sweet ride.. is it gonna be a street car or weekend racer?

Carl Byck

Unfortunately, it will be track only, the Goodyear slicks don'y last long on the street. The car is sporting a PT67 .81 q trim, should be good for ~500rwhp.

Something tells me CB isn't going to be cruising to the 7-11 with his Goodyear racing slicks...

Looks good

A better pic of the wing, I may raise it a bit, de[ending on the downforce I get with the low position.

Where is the funky, Mazdaspeed replica hood?

RXciting

haha my bad.. didn't notice those were slicks..

man that thing with 500 RWHP would really turn some heads on the street.. let alone the holy **** factor your passenger would get

Carl Byck

Thanks Dltreezan, BTW, I like your new dual scoop hood, very nice. I should have the long awaited reverse cowl hood this week. Here's some detail on how it mounts.

I didn't see it in the pic. I thought maybe your group-buy didn't go through, is all. Its a cool hood.

looks good.....post completed pics please. Where did you buy that kit? I wouldn't go for the wing cuz it would be a street car, but the widebody looks awesome. Is that the GTC front end?

I think im in love

GTC nose from Rotary Extreme, the wing is a bit much for the street, but at least it's functional. Most of the body work should be done next weekend. Motor about a week after that, then paint, and tuning. About 3-4 weeks til completion after two years work.

haha.. i know exactly what's going on in your head.. only mines for the street.. hasn't seen roads since 2002

Actually, I may well widen it another 1.5" all the way around

I though about doing that with mine also as there is barely enough room for those tires and you are very limited with how low you can drop the car. How do you plan on doing it. A flare on the flare or what?

in2twins

I would just extend the natural lines of the fender. Until I see final ride height, I won't be changing it. Also I need to calculate my new roll center, to see how low the car ought to be. IIRC it is higher than what many people run

OverDriven

OMFG that thing looks bad ***. Great job man. I can't wait to see it with paint on it. I would go with black paint IMHO.
