nice mate. I must say I'm a bit shocked by the size of the coolers!! will be a fair bit of weight up front. is it really necessary to have that much core? for a big power street car I could see it but for a track car that really seems like a lot.

love the custom front end etc though. :)

Its to keep options open for the car.. eg. 20 lap races etc.

Also, they probably look heavier than they are.

The front end will be much lighter than stock ;)

I would have to agree with beer baron, but i was looking at the snow plough the air going to have to pass through, the frontal area of the cores looks huge. A V mount set up was not considered?

loving the build and all the excellent work you guys are doing.

Hi Guys

Hard thing with build up threads is that you never see the whole picture, when the front body shell is on the car all will be revealed, the coolers where designed with one thing in mind Aero and thus the entry and exit of the ducting going to the cooler is very important. So yes with no body on it, it may look excessive but in reality it will produce very impressive down-force numbers. Also don't be deceived by the cooler they are all PWR's new light weight design.

cool. that makes sense. I know the cores are super light, it's the fluid inside them that's heavy!

and yeah I know with bodywork on and proper ducting frontal area as presented to the airflow is much reduced. I still think you'll find you just don't need that much cooling. having said that I'm sure the guys are on top of things and have done their sums.

either way can't wait to see it. time is ticking away!!

Hey guys just a teaser of some of the fab we have been doing!! we are getting there hopefully we will get a noise out of it very soon.

Better be careful driving it in summer... might have overheating problems! :-P

F***ing incredible work!

Amazing work guys....

Good luck today (hopefully your there :thumbsup: )

Nope. Still waiting for the carbon guy. Everything else is right to go but have no front clip. This is holding everything up and it's just one delay after another from him. Only have a week left and doubt Drew will be able to test it at all. It's fcuking pathetic with the amount of money spent to be let down like this.

Cheers

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
