Gender neutral reveal skids ready (minus motor).

@SiR_RB about 500kW at the rear, pretty much same hotside, better head set up, better cooling and a bit more balls with timing. I want it all in between 4000 to 4300 rpm and spin its mum to 9000rpm.

[SiR_RB]

That looks sick man 

what’s the paint code, I may of missed it 

 

still gotta organise a meet/drive one day lol

[Piggaz]

Need a motor first lol.

Paint code is Selenite Grey from a Bankstown Classic.

Maybe, maybe something else 😅

[Piggaz]

What gearbox? That’ll be the next thing you’ll be picking up off the road.

Didn't need to be asked.

For now CD009 conversion seems like a good idea, with 3.6 diff ratio.

This was kind of the plan from the start but who knows, could be a Samsonas considering what has happened so far 🤣

[Kinkstaah]

Can I interest you in a T56? Better ratios also I want to sell mine.

Colour looks really good, and glad to see you didn't give up on it so fast!

Lololol... If it was a R33 dog box then maybe, but yeah CD009 seems appropriate, keeps the car driveable. Doubt it's seeing the track the way it did before.

[Kinkstaah]

Aren't the CD009 ratios hyper short? They'd be really great with a 7th for cruising (in my application)

Whats with the hardcore build then if it's not going to go to the track? Booooooo!

Broscience tells me the S15 Manual CW&P will fit somehow lol.

Will still go to closer tracks here and there, e.g. Luddenham, maybe Eastern Creek South Circuit etc. but not competitive, just squirts here and there. 100% will take it to Powercruise lol.

Oh don't you worry, it will still be thrashed, just skidpans, Powercruise, etc.

[The Bogan]

I build stupid cars to daily 

Life is to short for a boring daily

I ❤ all go fast builds

 

[BakemonoRicer]

Are you aware the CD009 will become the lowest point on the car? They hang a LOT lower than the chassis rails, just an FYI. 

What you need is a Samsonas.......

Paintjob looks mad.... did you take the strut towers off to do a rust repair while engine out?
