hey guys,
Long time lurker that rarely posts, but since I can't send PM's to sellers anymore as I need a post count of higher than 10, here's an introduction thread.
PS: If anyone has a set of genuine Bride Gias in black for sale can you PM me please!
Many of you will know me from Boost, JDMST or from OzHonda so howdy
I shot these photos a while ago when I purchased & fitted a replica Mugen carbon fibre hardtop (seibon from the USA) to the car about 2 months ago. I intend to paint it blue (refer to last 3 images for example), and have a few of the things on the car fixed up - my bent passenger fender from being too low is the priority, but I also want to get the bumper and front lip resprayed while I'm at it.
Now running 12 pound through the stock internals of an F20C. I think thats approximately .8 of a bar in metric terms. Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
The car runs a centrifugal Comptech Supercharger with a 3.2" pulley. The only next step I can go is a 3.0" pulley and 14 pound, but with our hot SE QLD climate, I'd rather not risk it. To combat higher IAT's with our summer weather, I'm trying to buy a frount mount radiator from the US (have been waiting on a shipping price now for about a month....), but I'm still waiting.
Car makes anywhere between 310rwhp-330rwhp depending on the dyno etc etc.
Modification Plans For 2009:
ARC Aluminium Radiator Cooling Plate.
Spearco front mount radiator for Aftercooler.
Comptech Re-inforced diff (currently awaiting for even better USD/AUD conversion as its $150US just to post it out).
Exedy Hyper Single clutch and flywheel (in transit).
MY08 LSD (in transit).
Install the Zex Nitrous kit - 75 shot & have retuned.
Port & Polish the spare Intake Manifold & spare throttle body (in transit).
Polish the spare valve cover & Intake Manifold (in transit).
Polished Supercharger & Aftercooler.
Maybe Modifications For 2009/10
Whiteline X Brace.
Greddy Oil Cooler.
Find a nice set of genuine Bride Stradia / GIAS Low Max seats & Bride rails. (always looking)
Koyo aluminium radiator.
M Racing Carbon Fibre Mirrors (if I do respray and fill door skin holes from OEM mirrors)
Anyway, on with the pics!
