That video would have sounded way cooler if you were wearing your mullet wig.

I bet that little trip was expensive on gas... being stuck in 3rd and making pulls on race gas.. ouch

anyhow. sounds freaking awesome! Nice to hear a little more exhaust note instead how quiet it usually sounds.

Haha, I had the mullet wig in the car, its just so windy the hair gets in your mouth!

On a sidenote, do you have any leads on an S13, possibly with a blown motor? I just picked up a head/cam LS1 pacakge i want to throw one into

I am really looking for something in the sub 1000$ category to keep this project on as much of a budget as possible. I found a 95SE with a blown motor for 1400 i may spend the extra few hundred to get the S14 chassis, as I believe they are both the same weight roughly

The cool thing is that I have a spare Twin Turbo Z32 parts car in the garage, and the brakes, rear end, and all that upgraded jazz will transfer right over Should be a pretty complete car on a serious budget

560-570rwhp on the spray, 2700lbs? 10s?

What road are you on? Peoria?

your one of the few guys who has thier racing harnesses properly attached to a cage so your spine does not get smashed in an accedent.

Yep, Rt 8 on peoria, its a bit outside of town. Excellent road for some brief spirited twisties and then it opens up straight for a few miles, with several turnarounds

Good to hear on the harnesses, Never done that kind of install before and went with what I thought would work best

Torco 112. I have found the motor runs better so far on this, however I may need to switch to some C16 when I go for more boost

I should have had the camera out with me the night before. Me and my buddy with an LS1 FD were out messing around. One time I got into 5th, pulled for a few seconds and speedo read 160ish......that was enough for me, lol
