Lol yea man we had the TO4Z for a little while then we got our hands on the new turbine we have for the new setup with the powerglide, Garrett GT42-45R hybrid . we wanted something nice that can give us enough power to move the trans. Plus a 100 shot of nitrous (wetshot) to wake it up quick!!! So it's 800hp+ plus the 100shot of Nitrous! ;)

WOW that run, 9.2 @ 150mph with the powerglide was crazy...what 60ft??

maybe you should get a bigger intercooler though :P

I believe it was a 1.4 60ft ,the best ones been 1.39 my friends trying to get it lower .

That was the smallest front mount we could find lmao!!

yeah a RB26 and a MASSIVE high mount not something i come to expect from the engine bay of a mx5 hahah

absolutely crazy mate! what are future plans?? or is it as far as it can go?

@ spark . Yea is really something unique that my buddies have done here they deserve all the credit the car is insane people the are scared to race it !

@ Wytnte , yea definitely not your average mx5 lol my buddies want to hit the mid 8's if possible ,the boost has been raised we were only on 28psi now it should be @ 38-40 psi with 100 shot of nitrous so next video I make will hopefully be a 8 sec pass !!!!

@saw , lol thanks I will definitely let my mates know , I can tell you first hand how hard that car pulls!!!!! I been in it on a street test pass with this new setup and man i needed a second pair of underpants lol I've never been in a car that pulls that hard! Is insane being in that car that night it over boosted to 56 psi all I said was WTF! Revving to 9k + rpm!

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
