Pushing hard to make the test event on the road course....

 

Looking good, dude!

Are you adding more bash bar stuff to protect that fuel stuff from walls?

 

Nope. If i do pile the fuel surge is for sure a goner... Everything else is next to impossible to hit. I dont really like where its at but if i go further forward ill have to sheet off the entire hatch area. That would look/feel gay

 

this build is sick. I dont have the patience to get this indepth! with i did

 

map, coolant, 02, aux injectors, 4x main injectors all finished up tonight. It's taking me a little longer than i thought.... Mostly because i keep redoing things better, or equalling out lengths, resistance testing each solder point... Monday i'll be out of town getting the tune going.

Paint going down today.

But for now....pics.



I made this sweet mount for my LS1 ignition coils.


Next i just need to figure out how to bend up some tubes and splatter some welds on stuff and i'll be jammin!!!

 

you running power steering?

 

Yessir! Just took it off to run the wiring to the crank triggers

 

Disregard shitty bumper/hood fitment. I still need to recreate the core support, and find the OEM hood stops for the corners behind the headlight buckets.

However - i have finally finished up my 85mm ventless front fenders for FC. 100% symetrical between both sides. I am wanting to hold back on production of these as i think i want to experiment with a few things to make the car "appear" lower in certain areas. But if anyone were wanting this exact style the pricing starts at $550. Shipping/paypal fees not included. Right now there is a 3 week lead time with my mold guy so consider that prior to ordering. Once i can get some funds built up i will be reinvesting into the aero, and rear over designs i have been scheming up. Just right now i have neither the time nor funding to even start.. Lol
But for now here are some photos. Take into consideration my balljoints are extended, i have daigo spacers on, and bigger front tires.

 

Sick Buckminster. Have any vids of her running? I wanna hear the sweet sounds of REW

 

Buckey, I want my coilovers back. Message me. Im tired of waiting.

 

oh ****

 

What I meant was, "I want those coils back on the track, being used. I'm sick of waiting for my car to be painted. It's been like a day."

 

Probably the coolest thing of 2013 so far is my goal last year was to start my business, and purchase the car i sacrificed to drive in 2010. I sold this car to a buddy of mine for what is now the red FC. I finally got the VR4 back after a ton of sacrifices, and flipping 30 cars over the past year....


I'm planning to repaint it, get it fresh again, and street it with bronze TE's or some meisters.

Sorted all the leaks so far (hopefully for good) so nuts how hard it is making top feed injectors work on these motors....
Heading to cali tomorrow to tune, hopefully this 3rd time will be the charm and ill be drifting on saturday at Round.1

One more dumb idle video until its burnout capable

Did you ever pitch this thing sideways yet after the tune?

 

Not yet just been doing a bunch of burnouts lol.. I need to secure the battery. Somehow one of my mounts broke so it just sits in the box.

That and im overloaded with work and in the middle of moving shops so its kinda sitting

 

Hopefully you get it sorted out soon so you can enjoy it for its purpose haha

 

JTP wanna chime in on why you dont like that fuel setup? Is it cause of where the hoses are in the back of the car?

 

well i didn't want to clutter buckey's thread... but i'm just concerned about the entire fuel setup being mounted to his rear bash bars.... one good hit to anywhere on the back end could create a major fire hazard...

 

I get what your saying here, Justin.. But then I think...

Party!

 

lol.... there's a difference when it's someone's car that they've dumped all their money and time into... and a sponsor's car that can afford to rebuild it.

but i do see what u did there... and yeah... it can make for some amazing moments.
