My MB "FEED" project.. - Page 2

***Herblenny*** · 06-07-2009, 08:42 AM

It might be all in my head.. But the car feels bit more stable over 110 (gotten up to about 130-140). I did however tried by best to cover the underside of the front bumper using MS undertray and stock undertray. Also I have the Feed Canards and oil cooler ducts.

Here are few more pics from yesterday..

nice photo work. It looks like you cleared out the whole city to take these photos, almost not another car or person in sight!

dregg100 · 06-07-2009, 10:10 AM

you need less offset on the front wheels, but looking good other than that.

***Herblenny*** · 06-09-2009, 06:28 AM

Kevin, It was early in the morning.... Now I'm playing around with the pics to bring out some color.. Here is a rendered pic..

dregg100, I think its good.. If I bring it out more, I think it will start hitting my fender liner. As of now, it doesn't rub anything at all

Looking good as always Phil.

Hey Phil,

Looking awesome as always. Been buried at work the last 3 weeks straight, hence my reason for not responding to you on last year's Deals Gap shirts. I'll be in touch once things settle down at work... promise.

Hey, on your brake rotor setup, are those 99 spec brakes or just stock calipers with aftermarket cross-drilled rotors? Just curious since I'm thinking of upgrading my brake rotors in the near future and I love how yours turned out!

Thx!

No Problem.. I thought you were mad at me or something..

They are RX front and rear, stock RZ rotors that are custom drilled by David Garfinkle. Cross drills are harmocially balanced and has a beveled edge. Great amounts of works been put on drilling all those holes and top notch works been put on by David.

Does David have a website or sell them somewhere? I've got his oil pan brace and love it. Let me know where I can score a set of those rotors.

David is on this forum.. Garfinkle Motor Works.

You would have to send in your stock rotor and he will drill them for you..
Send him an PM>

Looks awesome!

project86 · 06-06-2010, 09:06 PM

i love those wheels...

***Herblenny*** · 06-14-2010, 02:31 PM

Here is my updated UIM...

UIM I had for about 5 years... Garfinkle did his magic polishing, welding, opening up the inside, etc... I never used it because I was waiting on my larger ported stock TB... which I never got.

But since I have the Rotary Work TB, I thought I use it instead of the stock one I had on.

All the un necessary nipples are cut and welded... for cleaner look.

All the emission junk have been taken off..

and hole was cut on the top for uniqueness...
