My bro in-laws drift soarer that is.

I have finally dug up the pics that I was talking about in an earlier thread. The car is a bit further along now, but you will get some ideas as to what kind of tarmac terror it will be from these pics.

And yes, that is a custom billet inlet and fuel rail, as are the pistons and rods, comes with having family friends that own a CNC machining firm!

If by that you mean pull up, then yes. The brakes on that make the supra 4 pots look $hithouse, you do the math!

When do we expect this to be on the track???


When it is finished. The build has currently been going on for nearly 2 years so a bit longer isn't going to hurt anyone. In the state it is in the pictures, (shell, paint, carbon, cage, brakes, shock and engine) it is worth nearly $50k, and there is a lot more to do!

Amen to that, although we are starting to think that 265's an the rear aren't quite going to be wide enough :-)

Is he going to keep the aircon? Otherwise might as well remove the compressor.
That is some very impressive work done there! :-)

If you are referring to the black pulley with the rusty edge to it, that is the power steering pump mate, no air con compressor left there!
