How much power you think you are going to make. Are you going to be on meth or gas. Nice set up I am working on small tire turbo project as well mine is going to be on race gas.

864angel112 07-15-12 08:25 PM

The engine bay is looking good. What does the rest of the car look like is this going to be a track only car?

Incredible build! Very impressive, best of luck with the rest of the project.

Love the sway bar! Any chance of some close ups of the mounting? What size bar are you running?

That's an anti roll bar works basically like a sway bar but more solid n not really to be used too much on the street cause u don't want it to be bent, keeps both wheels planted equally to the ground just in case u didn't know....

C. Ludwig 07-27-12 10:07 AM

Thanks for the tip. :rolleyes:

Whether you call it a sway bar or a roll bar they are the same thing. They are a torsion spring. Neither are intended to bend, only twist. Two names for the same part, whether it's installed on a drag car, street car, or a road race car.

am putting the 28" slicks on a hold for now
with the power am expecting i should be fine
by next year i will be fitting the 28" slicks
it was going to be too much work
we needed to make a upper control arm and move the shocks inward

for now i hope these 26 " work


enjoy the pics

C. Ludwig 08-02-12 08:44 PM

Badass man! Can't way to see a action video!

Sounds like there is a market for liberty to make gears for this box.

aruba 10-29-12 10:48 PM

i have 2 more of these that are done by liberty, they havent shiped them yet
i think i had to use a single disk act instead of the twin disk every thing is so hard on thos stock gears
but the tranny felt nice on the dyno

sk8world 10-29-12 11:12 PM

Well I run a sintered iron disk and it doesn't slip a bit. Just broke 3rd gear this weekend but it went a year with no issues. But on much less power than you are making.

I will talk with Paul in the morning. There was talk years ago about doing gears for this box but it would need to be used by more than a hand full. Curious to know how many Mazda boxes he has built.
