good luck guys and have fun. Ill send some updates and expect some in return from Melbourne.

thanks for the nice words guys!! i hope it can put on a good show, of course along with everyone else!

i can wait to see it tearing the track up after all the work that has gone into it but as you know you cant garuantee anything when it comes to racing.

the first test went well, still have plenty more to work through but the bassis is there and we have a nice big list of things to do and if we get a quarter of those done before superlap i will be happy!! :P

i'm sorry to the guys that would like to see the car stay black (as so would i ) but there will be decals on it as we couldnt do it with out some help but hopefully should look good anyway.

we have tried to do everything we have learned and some new things from some people smarter than us , so we will see if it pays off.

cheers see you guys next week

fap fap fap fap..... say no more!!!

That is a pure piece of master craftsmanship worth of every blood sweat n tear resulted in its production...

Congrats fellas you truly have created a piece of fine fine fine machinery!!

most of it is. it's just been painted...

bonnet carbon

bumper and carnards carbon

front undertray FRP

front guards carbon

side skirts carbon

rear quarters carbon

rear pods carbon

boot lid carbon

wing carbon

doors carbon

the only real body work on the car that's not carbon as far as I can say off the top of my head is the roof. and come to think of it the bumper may be FRP too for strength and some durability. most of the interior is carbon too and the windows lexan. and all the carbon gear is the real deal. most of it was made in japan by composite experts, designed and built properly with all the right gear (autoclaved, vacuum bags etc). no half measures. :banana:

this thing needs chrome decals in nice fonts.... like the knight sports cars.. when will aussie workshops get cool logos and workshop names.... spose ill consider red r racing as a cool logo.

Here's some wallpaper resolutions:

HOLY F-ING SH!T!!!!!

When i first saw the picture of this i was like "mmm...looks ok...not sure tho" (baring in mind my mate sent me the pic on my phone so it was tiny)

Seeing this picture just scared the crap out of me!!! That's the devils car! It looks so evil...it looks like it will decimate everything on the track.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
