so how's the cabin heat from the LS? i don't really remember seeing you do much to heat proof it.
|
So far cooler than the rotary was. Going across town in similar ambients the tranny tunnel would burn with the rotary. Now its just really hot.
|
FYI got the Feed trunk thingy installed. Looks great. Thanks so much!

There is no pressure/volume issue in those being different sizes?
|
nope, the aeromotive 10an fpr comes that way
|
Are you using the engine you bought from me yet?
|
Gringo has it
|
@Black - Could you PM me with what exactly was done with/to that engine in order to know exactly how many reach arounds I owe Mark?
@Mark - Loving the hood man...forgot to mention that. @Mark - Did you remove the Charcoal Cannister? So one line feeding up the underside of the car and the return running back? So 2 lines instead of 3? |
Yes, yez.
|
Lol. Sounds like quite a few reach arounds are in order. Pm sent.
|
Mark - Do you know the weight of your car at the moment?
|
Negative, kevin didnt have his scales past few times we were by

as posted elsewhere my diff cried like a baby...
Starspec 265s were no where near good enough to handle our cam/heads ls3.. so we had some 285 rs3s laying around and slapped them on the rear. Since they were new had to do a safety burnout to clean off the tires. Yeah bad idea... Burned 1st, went for 2nd let the clutch out then bang akine to the sound of a 45 going off. now the carnage. Attachment 757590 Attachment 757591 Attachment 757592 Attachment 757593 Attachment 757594 Attachment 757595 Attachment 757596 Rear cover is cracked, giant holes on both sides... can visaully inspect the whole innards. hinson ppf with a banzai diff brace modded onto it. Ls3 with around 460 whp + gobs of torque. byebye diff Soo time for minor cosmetic things! Put these on,. Attachment 757597 Attachment 757598 |
The rearend explosion makes me want this car lol. I guess a LS FD is my next buildup.
|
Damn, you told me that went pop but... wow
|
Here's a video of the diff destroying burnout... It doesn't seem like much but if you listen carefully you can hear a pop at 0:08.

Been working on polishing up all the minor things on the car. Loomed alot of the harness and been freshening up the exterior.
Plasti-diped all the carbon. Was doing this to protect it from the sun and be reversible, turned out better than expected! Attachment 757357 Attachment 757358 Attachment 757359 Attachment 757360 Attachment 757361 The inside of the bumper's wrap was coming up a little so plasti-diped that as well, I also put my feed turn/fog combo on it :nod: Attachment 757362 Attachment 757363 Hoping to have a diff in soon to be on the road again! |
