It`s a 2 piece Shaft think it`s GURU, don`t remeber...

It have one more bearing than the stock shaft has.

Meaning less flex, less clearance and the result is more Hp and higher rpm...

And it`s 2mm yes...
The seals are SCR seals, but will probably have to change them when I got the engine mapped..

Here are some pic of the wall that will part the coupe and the fuelcell/fuelpumps.

Will use Lexan from the plate and up.

Are you going to get the rotors (other parts?) ceramic coated? I heard for racing purposes it helps keep the internals in better shape.

I think she wants a good wash too

Will not get any parts coated, but the rotors are polished..

She will get a good and wet wash when she`s painted..

Are you associated with the guy building the orange FB rx7? Both from Norway, and I believe you even have the same avatar "insane burnout." If thats the case, can we expect a full carbon fiber body like that car?

For those that might be wondering...

Sorry for the hijack, I was just curious.

Awesome. Don't know which car I like better! Single turbo 20b, or massive pp single turbo 13b? Both cars have been fabricated by masters! Keep up the awesome work, hope to see the finished product soon!

No, I will have a CF hatch with Lexan window in it.

But in Norway we have some rules that say.
That we have to have a liquid tight wall that parts the fuelcell and the coupe.

It`s for the racing licens purpose.

Looks like I`ve got a good deal on brakes for the car..

360mm x 32mm with 6 pot caliper in the front.
320mm x 32mm with 4 pot caliper in the rear.

Hope this will stop the car quickly when it`s needed..

And possible new wishbones on the car..

I was also wondering, how come you decided to use a whole, completely running (assumably) FD for this job? you stripped it down anyway

I would have just got a shell and kept this car for you know driving on streets and such cruising

Well the car is a Japan import, and in Norway we can`t use it on the road..

And second there arent many Fd`s here in Norway, so I couldn`t get a roller if I wanted to..

Looks like I will be doing a complete AtomicRex suspension..

Hispec brakes.
Nitron 3way adjustable coilovers.

AtomicRex manual steeringrack 2.4 truns from lock to lock.
They will be making a LHD rack for me, as they are located in UK..

AtomicRex wishbones.
Has been designed by the same man who made the suspension for the Mclaren SLR...

This will extend the width of the car with 60mm per side..

No problem...

There are a few extreme cars over her now, so I would think it could be worth the trip..
