Next step (i hope) is to run a 10 second pass down the 1/4 mile, stay tuned as i will be doing this very soon!

 

here are some more pics, i have yet to run it down the 1/4, been too busy, but hopefully will do that soon.
















switch down is low boost producing 350rwhp, switch up is high boost producing 432rwhp

 

Where did you get that air filter?! I need something like that because my hood is vented!

 

its a K&N Apollo air filter, just had to customize it a little to fit the turbo.

if you go to K&N Apollo Universal Closed Air Intake Systems you will be able to find it there.

hope that helps bro

 

Nice buildup, what wheels were on the car originally?

 

thanks bro, the wheels that where originally on the car were the stock ones from factory that came out with the 2002 FD

 

You have any photos of the back of the filter and what you had to do to customize it? It doesnt say anywhere what the size of the tube is.

 

nice car. you guys love those wheels huh?

 

I don't have photos of the rear of the filter, ultimately you will need tubing that will fit onto your turbo and then place that onto the back of the filter using hose clamps, that's all i did.

Ill take some photos this weekend and post up of the rear for you, hoping i get some free time.

silverTRD, im guessing by you guys you mean people in Australia? im not sure about everyone else but i do love my Works.

 

Bump. Looking good man.

 

photo shoot for a car magazine down here in AUS, made the front cover, ill post when the mag is printed, should be in a few weeks:

 

Amazing photos dude. Always wondered how one makes it in a magazine?

 

thanks a lot , i guess they see your car around and will approach you, in this case i Facebook messaged them and said this is my car would you guys want to shoot it, they said yes straight away

 

This car is seriously inspiring. Awesome build!

 

thank you so much! started from the bottom now im here

 

Nice car bud, I love a lot of the little things you did. You definitely spent a lot of time on her.

How is your drivability with the RW throttle body? I like asking everyone I see with it publically because so many people talk trash about it but I have nothing but good things to say about it. I think only the negative reviews are getting out about it.

Whats next for the car dude? Nice ink btw hehe.

 

Thanks so much for the kind words bud, means alot.

I have had no problems at all, very responsive and goes like a charm. I have nothing bad to say about the RW throttle body. It works normally just like it should.

The next thing I will do is run her on E85 to get more RWHP and thats about it, dont think there is anything else i can do to her.

thanks you, that rotary tattoo is my fave one, i have over 15 tattoos

 

Styx BUMP for the "DR"..lol!

 

Clean car but I think you should relocate the battery and eliminate the AST for a cleaner engine bay with more space.

Looking forward to more pics.

 

haha! thanks Styx!

thank you! but i’m not after a cleaner engine bay to be honest, it’s not a show car, it’s a car I drive and make the most of it. To me I love how the engine bay looks when everything is still there, don’t need the space either

 

 

this thread follows my build from start to finish; now im on the front cover of Fast Fours & Rotaries Magazine in Australia

 

so sad to write this but its time to part with my passion. I am now selling this RX7 (DRKNYT) in Sydney, Australia.

 

I hope the new owner will keep this thread alive
