I'm just wondering if that's gonna get enough circulation of air in that spot, to actually be effective.

I am, but I'm not going to be doing anything serious enough/long enough on the street to really need it, so having the tag over it isn't going to really be an issue. mainly going to have it for summer track days.

I'm going to cut and box the bumper support it's self, and then do louvers on the back side of it to allow air flow, and build a duct to the louvers, that, along with an electric fan should be sufficient.

You remember what happened Russ... if it wasn't for that, it would have been running months ago now

It should have been running months ago, but i got screwed out of a lot of money. So i'm trying to recover from that hit, and i'm saving up for rods and pistons right now. Hopefully I'll have the motor assembled around the first of the year.

Lol gave those type up in my early 20's haha

ksnew

iTrader: (2)

hahaha. screw it. i think i'm going to throw my spare 5.3 in the car with my heads, cam, intake, and see how long it lasts.... i'll just throw some new rod bearings, and rod bolts in it, and go for it.

Sounds go to me those truck motors can take some decent amount of abuse anyways

ksnew

iTrader: (2)

yeah. the only bad thing is its iron block. yuck. but i'd rather at least drive my car around town than watch it sit with no motor in it. i literally bought that motor for like 6 bolts on it anyways. idc about the motor its self one bit. throw it together, and however long it lasts, it lasts.

Tossed these on today just to get an idea... yes or no?

A few more pictures with 10 instead.

I was thinkin about doin that a long time ago when shine came out wit the stood wing for the FC lol I think it looks fine. It will probably look better when you get some real color on that bitch

ksnew

iTrader: (2)

yeah. I'd like to paint it later down the road, but for now, battle ship gray will do.

joshuaput

no. maybe, just maybe put them on the roof before the wing. even then idk.

joshuaput

looked at the pictures again.

no.

ksnew

iTrader: (2)

yeah, I'm kinda leaning towards no as well. Maybe later down the road after I do a few more things to make the car more aggressive, but right now it looks out of place.

Do these make the engine run?

Zenki FC3S

Jk... Nice build man! wish i had an fd

If you like them....run them. Prob won't steal any attention if the car is black. Wish I could nab a roof spoiler.

ksnew

iTrader: (2)

Nope, BUT the rod and main bearings I ordered today do.

Psh. I need as much downforce as I can get haha. nah, its mainly just for looks, even though they may be "functional"... But thanks, It's coming along.... slowly

Yeah, I think I might run them once I build my splitters, canards, and diffuser... The roof wing isn't anything special. Just a FRP OEM replica from shine that I shaved the teardrop/hump thing off of myself. I think the FRP ones are $100 plus shipping.
