are u really goin to drag race it ?? its way too nice man. maybe just throw the motor in a shitter or get whole new car ??

cars are meant to be built and raced, no matter how good they look :)

car looks very very nice white is definitely the best colour for a 32 esp with all the carbon parts in contrast!!

love it! and i dont usually love other 32s other than mine lol

wow, from start to finish what a great read, i believe somewhere it said you were trying to promote your business, i believe by this post it proves that you have definately got the attention.. i live in nsw but after reading this i feel like shipping my car up and emptying the bank account lol

great job, kudos to your dad and brother as well. i wish my dad knew how to build cars, best he has ever attempted is repainting the roof on the sigma ahahaha

Well done man on a well planned out project. Car has come out unreal, even though it's a 'backyarder job' as you call it. To me it's probably better then most professional jobs done. Can't wait til jambo and check this out.

That things tough as, fuel setup is no word of a lie AMAZING, i wish i had enough room at my place to have a triple garage and a spray booth :( instead ive got a single garage / spray booth.

Anyway good stuff mate.

Thanks for all the comments and support guys thumbsup.gif. Yes this car is going to raced we have spent way to much money and have put a solid 2 and a half years of blood,sweat and beers into making this car, now its time to enjoy it. Don't know how good the fuel economy will be in this thing but I'm guessing its gonna be pretty shit house. As long as it can make it the drag strip on a tank of fuel, then i'll be happy. Probably a fair chance that we will only get a couple of runs at the strip in street trim before the boys at Palmyra tell us to piss of and put a parachute on. down.gif There will be video's for sure of when this thing hits the strip for the first time. We have all our race clothing on order, pretty much ordered the whole RPM catalog identical to what the V8 Supercar Boys wear, so hopefully will be hear shorty.

As for promoting the business, I'm sure this car will gives us lots of attention and when the other two project cars are done we will have a good portfolio of cars under our wing. The 33 GTR will hopefully be done in the next month or two and then the Supra Project will start which i am looking forward to, as it will be a change from working on GTR's all the time can which get a bit boring at times. I am keen to do a Z project car as well, i have a few ideas i wanna do to a 350Z with a massive Stillen Supercharger strapped to it. Ummm time will tell hahaha!!!!!!!

I will keep you's updated as much as possible in the next few weeks when the car makes it debut at the strip so be sure to stayed tuned. The excitement is building fast.

Cheers

Benny

    • Please use a modern ECU. PowerFC with the Nintendo Gameboy controller is horrible. It's not 2005 anymore.
    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
