car is looking awesome, love the twinscroll gt30 setup (my dream mod

); btw did you get that kit from innovative?

though the bay looks kinda empty without the I/C pipes

btw which wheels are you running?

any word of comparison on R1s vs R888s?

looks like you're all set for solo1

good luck, hope to see you there

Got a few newb questions, so please bare with me.

-first off I would just like to say this car if F'n AWESOME!

1. I thought eq. length headers were not compatible with aftermarket oil pans?
2. How much neg. camber do you have with your plates rotated that way? I assume you have camber bolts to make up for the loss.
3. what are your alignment specs?
4. What are those 3 reservoirs on your fire wall? For the pedals?
5. Was it expensive to convert your pedal set up?
5. And finally, what #'s are you putting down?

Thanks!

-Greg

the whole turbo kit with IC is all Full-Race, with a one or 2 little changes to help it work with the way the car is set up. i have a set of 5zigen fn01r-c and Enkei RP-F1 17x9 with 255/40/17 R888, rain rims and tire when i have the funds.

1. my Moroso pan is very modified to make it fit.
2. That is just for Max caster with some camber, the rest is done with custom arms off the suspension.
3. 2 brake res and one clutch.
4. it's not too much after the cost of the pedal box, no more abs.
5. i'm thinking that it's in the 450s wph but we haven't really done real runs on the dyno for this year.

i have pics and video from my first GT Sprint race. i finished 5, 7, dnf (turbo oil line). when i get a few min i'll try to get thing ready.

If you get a chance take some pics of the oil pan modified...just to get an idea what it took to fit.

Where you at Mosport on 2-4? I wanted to come watch but never got away from errands.

Great car...absolutely, I saw it once long time ago laying around at 4*
