Real nice job man, and tastfuly done.
Not to much rice....juuuust right!
I picked up the mag before I hopped online, What kind of 1/4 mile times have you run?

Cheers

 

Never made a full 1/4mi run....but I´d say it would trap in the high 110`s mph to low 120`s mph. Car made 426 at the wheels @ 16psi (crept to 17.7 on the high end) in a 2790lbs fd...so go figure. But this FD is in no way built for the drag strip

I was wondering who that was. . .I liked how you gave the forum props in the magazine.

Congrats. . .the car and the article are top notch!

 

wow...congrats..real people in magazines! HURRAY!!

so, now that your car is an accomplished celebrity, how much you selling it for? lol..

congrats man.

 

$70k and it's yours.

 

nice car...congrats

 

ive been yuor article in the mag for the last two weeks like everday...

 

great job on the car and good luck with the sale

 

I just saw this car on eBay. That's where I bought my car, but the seller was a giant douche-bag unlike you. Good luck selling, I hope some super filthy rich guy offers you $200,000

 

sorry you have to sell it man, but good luck with the sale

 

i actually bought that mag as soon as it was put on the shelves... i am going to be buying an fd at the first of the year and i thought this was an awesome article and the pics were great!

 

Congrats, it is very rare to get the cover, good job...and of course SWEET FD!

 

is this true or is it another ebay scammer

your selling already? the article made it sound like true love atlast

 

where can I buy this since it is probably not on store shelfs in late august ?? Tim let me barrow it

 

Sadly yes, it's true..... Kenny has a new baby and some other pressing family matters that have to come first. So as of now, the FD is for sale (pending he gets what he wants for it).

And it's not "already"..... He's owned the car for quite a while before it's current state of transformation.

Congrats, I Hope Mine Looks That Clean Someday!!!!!

 

priorities change...

 

hey gorilla,
did kenny's fd really have a high flow cat on and make 426rwhp? that seems almost unbeleavable. had to be a resonated mp or something.

reason i ask is i am considering the stage III's and just want to know what to expect.

 

Update: The car is no longer for sale. my business has been doing quite well and has pushed away the need for me to sell the car.

Thanks for all the props.

No the car has a 'test' pipe i.e. straight open no nothing. I am not sure why they put that in teh article... They also said it was a CWS IC when it is a CWR as is Crooked Willow Racing.

I've had the car in it's present state for about 18 months, the article was done in late 07 though not published till 7/08. I only had 2 serious offers, one I actually considered but timing worked out for the best.

 

I loved that episode of Modified.
it gave me alot of inspiration.
P.S. I Looove those Rims!...

 

haha i still remember i bought this magazine because i read the article inside relating to rx7club

 

well i'm glad to see your car is not for sale. hope it stays that way
