Engine bay looks compact as hell. And is that a steering kit (rack and pinion)?

Good stuff.

Looks great. Do you have any cooling issues with the intercooler mounted right infront of the radiator? What are the dimensions of that intercooler?

Looks like fun. Definitely post some videos.

Nice RX-3, too. ;)

Looks like a REspeed kit. VERY NICE.

I spy an RX-3 SP in the background. Pose some pics of that bad boy!

Na never had a cooling issue.. The car still has the front vents to direct the AIR into the intercooler and i had the stock rad. before and now I have the Griffin so it should cool even better.. Another thing you can not see my intercooler from the front of the car.. I will post some pics of the front of the car...

I havent got the car aligned yet so i havent even drove it with the new Re Speed kit yet... I cant wait...

A few more pics of the car.... It has a cage now i will get a few of those too...

Tires are pretty big, even without the IC out front, not many people would want to mess with you with a stance like that.

Interesting hood graphics too...

Yeah i know I dont have those tires on my car anymore.. I just love that pic of the car.. It looks badass...

What are the dimensions of the intercooler. If you don't mind me asking, what brand is it, and where did you get it?

I'm about to swap in a turbo 13B also. That's why I ask. Don't worry, mine wont be as pretty as yours, or as fast from the looks of that turbo. :)

I got the intercooler off of a buddy I will ask him.. I will get the dimensions of the cooler and I will get you some other pics from when i first put the intercooler in..

send me your email..

If you are sending pics and info about your intercooler could you send them to me also or post them here?

Nice job, how much of an improvement is the rack and pinion?

I have not driven the car yet... it will be up and running by next week.. And at the track by the 31st... HOPEFULLY...

I will post all info here about the car..

Just watched your videos. That car is damn fast. Awesome job.

just getting the interior back together..

Trust me, it's a badass ride! Good job, Derrick!

Post your times in the Drag Times section if ya haven't already :icon_tup:

car looks great! I have that same intercooler on my FB. It fits very nice and it retained all the AC stuff. What is your best ET and mph? How much boost and RWHP are you making?

Bryan@BNR

Looks nice. I haven't had a chance to see the vids but the pics are sweet. What's with the hood? The guy's head looks weird, am I not looking at it right?

My most recent best time was a 10.86 at 124 with a 1.4 60ft. That was at 13/14 psi... I will be turning it up for this weekend at Pan Ams.. Not sure on the HP???

my guess on the power is around 360-375 RWHP at that boost level. That 60 ft is great! What rear end and gearing are you running and also tires?

heres a up date on my runs.. 10.25 @ 135mph and a 1.37 60ft.... 22psi
