Looking good Boltz! Glad you see you finally had a build thread up again! I remember when you got the BBK-C but I never heard any results from it.

Thanks for the nice comments everyone.

Glad to be able to share the progress and get some feedback. She now runs on SD and I'm going to be working out some of the small kinks this week.

I'll be sure to keep the thread posted with all the new info.

AC! Yes, it is. Email/PM if you want to know more. How's the GTR?

Hope you're doing well.

You CAN run that wheel without any spacers. My fenders are so wide however, it looks dumb if I don't have that spacer up there. It actually needs about 10mm more to be flush.

Car looks great! I'm back living in the STC so I'm going to have to swing by the shop to check it out.

I've had the opportunity to do some street tuning so far.....

The car drives so well on the MAP 2000CC injectors. Definitely recommend them up to this point!

From a 3250rpm roll in third gear the car makes 20psi@3750rpm and 40psi@4750rpm. A fourth gear roll should have 40psi coming in around 4400 I'm guessing.



Keep in mind this is on a .82 A/R GT3584.

The spool and response on the kit so far is insane. Absolutely love it!

There are endless details of this car that were extensively worked on and refined to the point where most eyes wouldn't catch. The widebody is a perfect example and has a ton of work into it.

The front bumper has been widened more than two inches.... Did you pick that up from the first round of pics? You can see that I took two bumpers and essentially fused them together to create a stock fitting, megawide, nosechopped, do luck lipped, APR splittered Evo8 bumper.

^ Nice touch.
I knew something was different, couldn't put my finger on it.

Your supply of gas cans is seriously lacking

Don't lose sleep over it, there's more!

Edit: Feel like I'm a terror suspect the way people look at me when I fill those up at my local E85 station. Is driving with 80 gallons of fuel in my trunk even legal? Seems a bit dangerous....

I have to go through the same measures to get E85.

You need to upgrade!

Grab a 55gal HPDE barrel off of Craigslist for ~$20 and then get a pump from Harbor Freight!

Edit: Unless the cans are to take with you for track days.

^ Not bad thinking. BUT, do you have a truck or something that you use to bring the 55 to the gas station? I can get #8 5's in the trunk no issue. A 55 barrel might be a bit harder to stash in the evo
