Was at the servo out the front getting refreshed (coke & choc bar) at the time... Good timing i guess...

Yep that would have been it. We were all down there!

hey mate, nice build, been following it since the beginning.

where did you buy the small battery from and what is the CCA ratings?

cheers

pm Trent from mercury motorsport. Thats one of the parts I wasn't coordinating.

Will require jump starting to preserve battery life though so not for everyone.

It is only 1.8kg though!!

I'm guessing there is no chance we can come check this car out on Sunday hey Mark? I'm flying up to QLD Sat night (home Sunday night) but would loved to have checked it out.

(Am flying up just to have a look at another 35 actually)

Can you take a vid of the Beast on your dyno?

Im sure all who've seen this thread would LOVE to see/hear it spinning up......

450awkw @18psi is a nice result for run-in tune. What awkw figures at what boost are you hoping for?

I want a solid 600awkw 28-30psi , god only knows how I'll cope getting that down on the track in any sensible fashion

to put that in perspective a stock R35 puts out about 270awkw on the mercury dyno dynamics

not sure what it should end up with in dyno queen mode?

600awkw is going to be tricky, you'll most likey increase the speed at which the earth rotates, depending what direction your driving of course. haha. Looking forward to seeing the final dyno result, when do you expect to have that done?

What a great result, we just finished run-in tune, final result was 500.2kw at wheels on 21psi. Now it is back on the hoist finishing installation of the carbon dash, mounting the rear diffuser and getting ready for the track shakedown.

I did get video of the dyno, so I am sure Mark will post up the video shortly.

The entire team at Mercury Motorsport are extremely happy and although exhausted from all the OT, this has spurred us on to continue with our efforts in getting ready for the WTAC.

overtime? whats that?

my toohey's extra dry supply cant keep up with all the overtime lol

seriously though Luke, Gordon and John have all been putting in immense hours to get this car finished. their work ethic and comittment is second to none

It's shown in the pictures, it's amazing how quickly this has progressed and the effort/quality which the boys have put into it. Can't wait to see this thing in action

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me  
    • That's my life. Past-Duncan has a lot to answer for
