Still has round tail lights like a GTR but has extra 2 cylinders. Will give it a good clean and some paint as its fully vinyl wrapped.

Trip to the Dyno with a few more mods and ready for some fun next year.

Will post up some more images along the way of the strip down and clean up.

Yes its a 2002 C5 Z06 Corvette, 5.7 LS6 motor and left hand drive. Its been racing in the US for around 5 years and finished 7th outright at the Corvette Nationals few years back. Has some good gear fitted all ready, with big oil coolers, accusump, gear box cooler and pumps, diff cooler, Willwood brakes, fire bomb, cool suit, coil overs, adjustable sway bars. 17x11 inch rims front and back and just picked up some Dunlop slicks to start some track testing.

Plans are to buy some extra parts bought a Corvette World Challenge front splitter and making a GT spec rear wing with rear diffuser.

Will get some 18" rims when I find some that fit nicely and use some semi slicks at time attack events as well.

Few more pics did take long to pull it apart...

C) How the hell do you choose which car to race in when you have a 35 in the garage?? I know which one I'd rather drive in the rain!

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By cosline · Posted

      I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.

      GTX2867R GEN 2 NO OUTPUT FOR BOOST SOLENOID

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.

      Nissan Skyline R34(ER34) Front Suspension Noise

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

      Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
