This is the coolest thing ever!

[MaRbLe]

Engine and tranny are done, pics soon I hope.

[MaRbLe]

FINALLY!

Flying to Cali on Thursday to make sure the car is setup to my expectations. If all is good its then being shipped back...

Will have the car and some pics soon=)

[JetBlack]

Awesome! The car looks scared on the car hauler. It's like sending your car to the vet.

Will the HKS make it a little snappier? Where's your whole mod list?

[Domesticated]

i thought i was a GTR head with twin turbos..

[traderj]

I would be scared shitless puting my car on a transport to get worked on in Cali. Looks like GTM does a good job though and keeps you in the loop.

[Mitchness]

Oh, to win the lottery. :D

Beautiful work with quality products. What do you plan to do with all that new potential?

[Brian]

you got me giddy about seeing new pictures

[MaRbLe]

Awesome! The car looks scared on the car hauler. It's like sending your car to the vet.

Will the HKS make it a little snappier? Where's your whole mod list?

Sold the HKS, going with a custom GTM TT setup. Going for 500+whp on low boost and around 600whp on high.....

Lots of stuff to come once I get the car back and pics from GTM.

[MaRbLe]

Oh, to win the lottery. :D

Beautiful work with quality products. What do you plan to do with all that new potential?

Track it and take some road trips.....

Holy.....

How long will it take to get used to the power? I was scared when I first got my Mustang and it's only 300. 500-600?!?!?

Starting in second, shifting to fourth, trying to keep out of boost. Horrifying, I would think. Can't wait to see it! You'll be losing traction through fourth, I would think.

I'm getting goosebumps.

[MaRbLe]

Well with the HKS SC I was pushing 400whp and I didnt think it was enough. If traction is a huge issue at lower boost then I will just start saving for a widebody LOL

[Domesticated]

that would be sick, what your tires sizes already???

[MaRbLe]

295 rears.....

[erik]

Whens the ETA of the car being done? :D Want a photoshoot? I'm sure KanokusPhotography.com will hook you up if your still in the Moscow area?

[MaRbLe]

I will have it in a week or so, I will still be in Moscow so a photo shoot could be cool=)

[Domesticated]

295 rears.....

then you should definately throw some more rubber under car, do you have the dyno sheet yet?

[erik]

I will have it in a week or so, I will still be in Moscow so a photo shoot could be cool=)

PM me and let me know when it's back and we can arrange something :)

[MaRbLe]

then you should definately throw some more rubber under car, do you have the dyno sheet yet?

I rolled the fenders to get that to fit, cant go any wider without a widebody kit.

No dyno for the new setup...soon though.



Erik-
Will do =)

That Z is the best one I have ever seen.

[Domesticated]

wow, shits scary man.. keep it up!

[erik]

Wow, she looks the same, yet very different. :D

[MaRbLe]

I fly into Cali tomorrow to test drive before its shipped=D

[MaRbLe]

What happened?!?!?! Were the turbos set to suck instead of blow? Where's the car/videos/etc.?

Spun the car out, insurance is covering the fit. Expect more soon as well as some goodies added. Going to be a bit before shes done though again...

How much time did you get with the car, after it came back? I know you were waiting much of the warm months and now it's gone again :(
