Let me know when you guys go to the track. I want to run my car too. It's being tuned right now.

And congrats Dixit on getting it running well.

redstradic: ahhhh "nasty wheels"? come on now they were pimp

Jeff, need to talk to you about the spacers that me and Jason need.

The BBK is by precision brakes with wilwood calipers and 13" rotor.

There's literally 20 tons of .50" 6061-T6 aluminum sitting at the metal shop right now so he should be able to cut them as soon as they have time. I'll redesign it to be prettier too so we can get some spares.

Ahh okie.. just curious. they looked like 6 piston calipers, couldn't tell what brand due to the gold color. Looked at some other pics in that directory and confirmed they're wilwoods. very nice.

What exactly do you want to know? The major thing that was done was a few months ago I completely toredown the kit and rebuilt it myself.

And did the 5spd swap myself as well. Now just fine tuning and going to push it to the limit and blow the engine as well.

Now just need to find the 15" rotor blank and get a hat made for it. I want the biggest rotor available. I want to fill all the void.

The design is done, I've been trying to get it made. But my schedule got rearranged after the shop got a new gov't contract. They're cutting armor plating for military Humvees in Iraq. 240 doors a week for the next year, they've uppped to double shifts so it's a lot harder for me to get in there. But I'm trying to get it done ASAP. Hope 1/2" is ok, that's what Jason told me, and that's the material we're going to use. And Justin is right, we just took delivery of 40,000 lbs of aircraft grade 6061 for those doors, so we have plenty of material.

Dix I love them wheels you have now. Also did you unpack that box we got yesterday I did and used it on a 2k3 maxima. I slammed that dudes ****
Car sits on 20s and now the wheels look larger then 20's since they tuck somewhat.

Jeff give me a call when you get a chance work 678 655 6190 or 678 516 4522 cell. I left it in my car by accident. You can call me today after 1PM

Oh boy...track times for turbo guys are coming, I can't wait. Your car looks sick man. I like the new wheels a lot more than the old ones. More fitting for the car I think. What kind of tint do you have?

Tint is 20% graphite tint.

Deez, www.turbofedmax.com/fullpics/turbo/teardown has all the pics of the entire teardown and rebuild. I posted this probably two months back when I finished it. The reverseY i got now is going to be rebuilt again by me. Im got another idea on it. When Im done Ill probably have 3 different types of turbo feed pipes. Im actually looking this time to build the whole thing from header to the turbo. I want to try it out mainly because I want my stock fans back on, these aftermarket fans are not cutting it because they are pusher. Worst case im going to just do the piping like everyone else does in Uturn style. But I got another idea to still make it come forward but retain stock fans.

I like the new rims. I remember when you told at the Autozone meet that you were getting ones and they make the car stand out now even more.
