here are some more pics. dont worry everyone is asking for vids, so it wont be long befor we get some. hes done a pass to, they only got one run in as it rain. now i'm just going by what someone else said here, but it sounds like he did a low 8 for his first run in that setup.

we have a big drag meet coming up, i think they will be there, but the mane draw card is the hks gtr is taking on the gtr from nz. they want there world record back. and this is the only time i'll ever be wanting a gtr to win. bring it on

I got a video of it getting a bit of tweaking before doing shake down runs yesterday (incidentally by the guy who tuned the worlds fastest Skyline GTR and owns the worlds fastest EVO, Andre Simon) - will post them when its off the camera. A bit of idling and a bit of free revving, nothing too exciting. It sounds fantastic and looks like it will go very well when it has any bugs it may have ironed out and the driver has some of that all important seat time.

I'd like to see it scare or beat the ex-Venom Supra here - RB and Rotary powered things being the fastest things in NZ would make me happy

Very unique and beautiful build. I noticed you guys are running the dizzy front plate to lock the timing. Which Standalone EMS are you currently running and what massive tranny did you find to handle that beast???
Kudos...
