I'll check with my guy to see what he can do. Chances are it'll take a few orders (like what has started here) and I'll have to sacrifice my car for a little bit of time for him to either copy, or reproduce the parts.

This is his shop: http://www.lr-racing.com

He made some other stuff for my car too, and will be making some more. I'll post some pix later and see if anyone is interested after I talk to him to make sure he can do it.

 

Hey Derekw...

Since yours will be the test bed (obviously) and because of work done to your car already and that this company will be making molds/jigs of said items and newer ones of your car....reimbursement sounds to me to be in order!!! LOL They are gonna make money off of you because of what has started here...you should be reimbursed by them in some way because of your "putting them on the map" so to speak with us!!! GOD Those pipes are sooooo pretty....and it's polished too!!! >=O)

Keep in touch with me via PM so I will know what's going on....I am definately interested!!!

Thanks Bro

 

Lowell at L&R has been a long time friend and supporter of my automotive hobby. So I'm taken care of.

I put in an email to him already and sent him the link to this thread. Will let you know what he says. Anyone else interested should drop a note here so he can have a gauge of interest.

 

the Ace Auto Parts here in Huntington had the battery and some really really nice brackets....i was gonna go with the smaller battery...the one you got is like 23lbs isn't it?...do you know the stock weight?...i haven't taken mine out yet

 

l&r... i'd definately be interested in the battery tray and intercooler piping. keep us posted.

 

You know.. I never weighed it. When I get up off my lazy *** and decide that I can reprogram my radio and clock, I'll go and throw in on my bathroom scale and see what the delta is.

 

The PC925 battery weighs 26lbs. I have either the PC545 or PC680 in my autocrosser, they weigh 12lbs and 15.4lbs respectively. Whichever one I have will not start the car in cold <30* weather, but is fine throughout the racing season.

OEM-type batteries range between 30 and 40lbs for and AWD DSM battery, not sure what size/type teh EVO is.

well i removed my battery today and weighed it...its was 35lbs....i bought the oddessy...real small one.....12lbs.....it starts the car..i'm still mounting it...i tryed to modify the stock bracket but it won't work.....i'm reuseing the tray underneath but i'll have to make a top bracket

 

Your Road racing... and complaining about a push...move it to the trunk...every pound out of the front end= more balanced stock = 60/40 F/R

 

Where did you buy it locally?

here is mine.

 

yea mine is gonna pretty much end up like that

 

OB4 - Isn't your oil catch can supposed to be mounted standing up? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of the indicator somewhat? Correct me if I am wrong...please

 

hi dragon,

the greddy catchcan can be mounted vertically or horizontally. if you look carefully at my pic, you would see the the indicator line is mounted diagonally across the catch can, i could have use the bottom 2 holes for the indicator line as suggested by the greddy instructions, but it would only leave me aprox 2 cm of clear indicator lines.

0b4- Where did u get the bracket for the battery? Did u make it?
