nice

 

Camera was probably mounted upside down and he had to invert the video for it to work.

 

BINGO!

I should mention too.... I'm running a stock engine with no porting..... the audio at the start is pinched from a 787B (but I'm sure most of you already guessed that!!)

 

Very nice car sir. Nice job on the race too

 

Really cool! love the originality!

 

The sound at the beginning had me curious lol, nice car man... really wish they held races like that around here.

 

Like stated before, RX-8 wheels are 18x8 at 50mm and of course they weight more than the stockers, they are 18s.

 

Recently raced at Bathurst and thought I'd share pics and a video.

Looks great. I've been trying to work out a 787b themed paint job for an FD in my head for a while, looks like you executed it well.

 

pretty awesome

 

Good job!

 

Cheers fellas!

It's lots of fun!

 

Hows that water-air intercooler setup working for ya?

 

Nice idea; thanks for including the video's as well!

 

Ditched it and built a V mount.

The W2A worked really well for short stints but V mount is much better if I want to do any sort of endurance events for the car.

Gives me more options for racing.

Here's a vid from a recent hillclimb:

 

 

Very cool! Your car used to be black right?

Great job with it! Good luck keepin' the rubber side down.

 

There is some serious incentive to keep it clean through that chicane.

 

Cool

 

Great idea, especially for a track car.

I've got RX-8 wheels as well – I think they throw off the speedometer and odometer slightly, but they don't look as outrageous as you would think.

 

I like the way you think.

 

Cheers guys.

Yeah the car is a lot of fun and this track right on the beach has very little room for error. I've been racing here for 13 years and in that time I've seen a lot of people come unstuck and smack sandbags, guardrail, telegraph poles, gutters and rock walls.

The place isn't for the faint of heart but if you can thread the needle properly, it is a very rewarding hillclimb track. It used to be longer which was great but an unstable cliff face meant it had to be shortened.

Yes mate, was black (and still is underneath the vinyl) if I ever get sick of the 787 theme, can just peel it off!!
