Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

I want led highbeams already. But they don't make any to fit r32s (yet) supposedly.

also I need to wire it up so my hid low beams stay on when high means are activated.

Led or hid? Led would be too dim

Yeah intercooler is huge. Bar has been hacked up to make it fit. Interesting on the led department ... only car I have seen to run led headlights was the holden effjay concept thing and it had a monstrous cooling system behind a 20ish watt single led

Here is another potato quality picture that shows how bright it really is, very spotlight-like beam, which combined with the HID lens lights I already have gives a very full spread. Even if I've only fitted one side so far.

Looks ok. Might have to find myself a second set of 33 headlights if they work out.

Longevity will be the deciding factor, these are cheap ones from eBay. Also, all led headlights like them use a tiny fan on the rear to cool the aluminium heat sink, I have run them for 5 mins in a go with no significant heating, but if the fan goes or lets moisture in they will probably die... Will keep you posted

    • I thought I'd heard rumor of someone that was developing a 6 speed kit to convert the 5 speed box. But maybe I was thinking of the PPG 6 speed sequential? That's about half the price of a car...  
    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?
