Peachey 11-22-07 01:13 AM

drftwerks 11-23-07 04:25 PM

Peachey 11-24-07 06:53 PM

Damn! I'm speechless.

Wow man I love the race car. I see that all the hard work and late nights paid off in huge dividends for you. Your build really motivates me for my build project. Thanks!

I followed this thread from a link on AusRotary.

nice work on the build up BTW.

The Power Steering pump
 
Just for those who asked, Its a regular 3rd Gen PS Pump. We used the OEM Bracket and cut it up a bit and modefied it to make it fit around the sump cover. As for needed or not. it maybe adds another 10 pounds to the car but the steering feels great, especially when we are doing 2.5 hour enduros.

Thanks for the comments guys, We went racing on Dec 23rd and finished 5th overall. our fueling system killed us. we were in first and we lost 8 mins in the pitts both times trying to fill 22 gallons through 1/2 inch line

Dry break system is already in the workbooks for the march race, i will let you guys know how it goes.

Laterz

damn dude that is completely awesome and down to earth as well as user friendly, I bet you guys have one amazing fun time driving that car setup like that with such a wonderful chassis like the FD. mad props on the buildup, its amazing how far you made it in such a short timeframe and it looks amazing.

wow.

jacobcartmill 01-07-08 11:55 PM

so, is this oval track racing like nascar?

550rwhprex 01-09-08 08:35 AM

slowmotion 01-09-08 10:32 PM

Thats a great car, I just got a 93 that I want to make a track car out of and your car gave me good ideas!

Peachey 01-10-08 05:07 AM

Comes up nice with the stickers. Do you have anymore videos?

rob20rx7 01-10-08 09:33 AM

Thank you for all your comments and support guys, from both the forum and Locals. The car is tons of fun to drive and still needs to dial in the set up a bit more. Im removing the suspension to send out to TIEN to have them re-valve and get new springs for the coil-overs. the set up it has now is way too soft and needs to be a little stiffer i belive. the rest is all little things that have to be attended to. The only part that is completely headace free is that motor. 2.5 hours Pulling strong and no bleeps. Again i have to give Kudos to CLR for set-up he has come up with.
