you are correct on the HKS name...i was just having a joke...the Bride racing seat in the HKS car has a "hello kitty seatpad"

it did not run but here's some news about Reeces runs...

Heat Treatments GTR

The HT team didn't really expect to break any records at taupo. Despite this, the car still ran a solid 7.77, and then a 7.78. The 7.7 pass should have been quicker, as the car crept on the line and red lit before Reece actually launched (the timer starts from when the beam is broken). The next pass was looking great, with a PB mph to half track (152mph!!), but unfotunately the front diff broke in the 2nd half of the track. Becuase the front diff is integral with the sump, it also cracked this part, putting the car out of action for the afternoon.

Yeah i knew you were joking as for the Hello kitty seat pad WTF were they thinking not my taste at all, thats one part i never liked about the HKS car

Had Reece changed anything on on the car?

[d-d]

Ohh you lucky devil Paul!!

lucky as. pics pics

Have realised our cable to connect camera to computer is at home....have to wait till we get back to Aust on Sunday.

Is there any particular parts of the car you would like to see....such as where they set the dials on the torque split controller ?

ok here's one of me "hamming" it up

[Swiper the Fox]

we lift the hood on the beast

standard coil packs are an interesting find

a big thanks goes to Daryl at Redline Performance for allowing us a few hours with the car

the lever closest to driver is for the parachute

[Swiper the Fox]

all the ATTESSA pumps are relocated to the passenger seat area. There is normally a carbon fibre cover over these for asthetics which they allowed me to remove to photograph

note where they have the torque split set..the dots they have put on the unit indicate this is their true race position

i see they use a "DiRTgarage" style 4WD 2WD switch for burnouts

the famous Hello Kitty Seatpad

Interesting to see standard coil packs on a car of this calibre

Yes we made that same statement almost imediately after poping the hood.

[Swiper the Fox]

note the angled flange to change the direction the air enters the port

solonoids for air shift mechanisim

fuel system comprises of a small fuel cell and 3 bosch 044 pumps

dash is a simple as a shift light, a gear indicator, a brake pressure guage, a warning light (low oil pressure) and an oil pressure guage.

[Swiper the Fox]

the result of no air filters...compressor wheel has certainly seen better days

the std boost guage sensor was an unlikely thing to spot

three stage dry sump pump..two scavenge pickups and one feed...keen eyes will spot the ATI balancer

this would be the heaviest hydraulic clutch ive ever operated.
