Is that a temporary motor you're running in there atm?
What are you doing with the purple block you have there?
Nice seats btw too

[evopwr]

you will have to respray the car again! i rekn leave it as is, the exterior looks sexy already

the gti flares would look pretty nice moulded on but its more work than its worth IMO

[EVL20T]

Yeh they are from a Proton GTi, they bolt nicely onto the body seein im already using proton front bar and guards, below is a pic of Joeys M21 just to show what it would look like 1 color

I need a respray so i thought i might as well see other options to do to the body of the car, im gettin the bonet made up soon (as soon as Rob gets his back so i can see what it turns out like )

I borrowed them 19s while i had no tread on my white racing rims, i looked mental hahaha but if i wanted the chrome rim lok then i would of kept my 1st 18 inch rims i had on it ewww

Im actually lookin for a decent set of race rims (4x100) ever in white, black or chadow chrome with polished dish

The other block i have is the old "blown" engine from the 200sx, the rod pin gave way and the piston smacked into the valves and yeah, bye bye block, head, everything.. its got a Fully forged and race built SR20DET 2.0L (head and block), 280 camshafts, adjustable cam gears, Sard 850cc side feed injectors, walbro 700hp fuel pump, custom top mount exhaust manifold, TiAL 38mm external wastegate, Garret GT35/40, Haltech E8 ecu with boost solenoid, Exedy Twin plate brass button clutch... waiting for the engine to wear in then throwing on the T04z turbo (gt35 is goin on the cc coupe) Custom exhaust manifold and dump, Custom plenum, Custom fuel rail + fuel setup, 1000cc top feed injectors, R33 gtst diff and axle upgrade, Front and rear brake upgrade

PS - its not my car, its my best mates, im just taking care of the engine side of things

PS - its not my car, its my best mates, im just taking care of the engine side of things

Is that why it blew Mik

[EVL20T]

Nah it was the old setup, it just wasnt fast enough lol

[Evo-00x]

The flares look crap and there's just too much purple in there for one garage lol

[ENGINR]

I don't like the flares - makes it look too chunky.

[EVL20T]

Bit of another update
Today i done abit of work to the coupe, i threw in an EVO brake boster + Master cylinder, also threw in the EVO clutch pedal (the one with the springs)
Also a few Nolathane bushes

[ENGINR]

I didn't like the EVO clutch pedal with the big spring, I returned mine back to the GLXi spec one.

[EVL20T]

Can you notice the difference?? if so what does it feel like??

I havnt had a chance to yet

[JAP63]

I dont mind it with the 19's, Im gonna try and stuff a set of 19's on my E3, the suspension and ride height will have to be set properly, otherwise it will be looking stupid..

IMO, 19's is really pushing it, its on the limit....I actually though a day after i bought them, wtf, theyyre gonna be too big....they will just be a show pony rim, howd it ride with them anyway? What tyres? 215/35/19?

[ENGINR]

Mik-e, what's the deal with this "350kw @ the frt wheels" thing that you're talking about!? :confused::eek:

You serious or just talking crap?

[Missile]

Some more GTi flares on coupe action for you:

[Evo-00x]

Mik-e, what's the deal with this "350kw @ the frt wheels" thing that you're talking about!? :confused::eek: You serious or just talking crap?

Thats what we're aiming for It's FWD remember

[EVL20T]

Yup we are aiming for 350kw, seein 1 of our mates made 315kw at all 4 with an unopened engine, i will basically have the identicle setup but in FWD and more boost

Traction will be the issue for me, thats why im upgrading all my suspension... then after havin FWD fun for a while then its the AWD conversion

[ENGINR]

Let me know how you go with that, I'm going to be VERY keen to see it hit boost.

[CLuTZ]

Jeez, and I thought I had traction issues with 215kw and 111mph- 350kw will be lucky to get traction in 4th!

[EVL20T]

At the moment im breaking traction in 3rd easily and chirp 4th, thats on 18psi with a 16G,
Best mph so far has been 106 on 16psi on an unopened engine back on 2006 but never got to do a dyno run to see the power it was making

Few things have changed since then though, motor has been rebuilt by EVO00X, GT35R, 38mm tial gate, 720cc inj, 272 cams, Microtech ecu are all waitin to go on as soon as i find more parts so i can do it all at once

[bazeng]

Sweet!

You will make 350 easy with the GT35 and a built motor.
I did it with a GT30...

I'm hoping that the AMG makes someting around that power level too..

As for drivetrain, dont forget the wheels & slicks!!!

[Evo-00x]

Already have custom made wide flared fenders made for up front and a pair of phat mags with slicks ready to go for track days
