Just got pics from the builder, waiting on the turbbo to arrive and then the car is off to the chassis shop to have the tube chassis front end built. Expect lots of pics to be coming soon and weekly progress reports. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif

Congrats. Now the REAL financial blood letting begins;)

GreyGT-C 11-05-2005 08:37 AM

i've already spent MOST of the money on it.... my final balance should actually only be about $2-3K more.

everyone talks about going 3 rotor like it's easy to come up with $15,000.



heh, looks sweet GREY. what exactly are you going to be running it in? and i thought you were going full tube chassis, and not just the front?

GreyGT-C 11-09-2005 02:11 AM

What am i gonna be running it in? It's my new daily driver. I may use it for a few track weekends at VIR and Road Atlanta too.



I'm just tubing out the front end so that the engine sits in there properly without causeing handling and/or weigh issues. That and i had a very slight bend in the end of my frame rail due to a previous wreck. They are also tying the full cage into it the front end.

Shut the **** up https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683664.gif I have seen a few 20B's in person. But how many people have seen a 4 rotor in person? I have seen the scoot 4 rotor (12A X 2 run by power FC's X 2). Not too many other people can say they have seen one...much less TOUCHED one. Bet it's less than the number of fingers on both of my hands.



A single turbo FD will need very few mods to run a 20B...an FC even less. I can see $10k...but 15k? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683561.gif

rfreeman27 11-10-2005 12:24 AM

yaeh, he has no pratical experience but comments on everyhting.





READING IS NOT DOING!!!



not everything you read is correct! acting like an internet athority is dumb when you have zero experience.



If i wanted to put a 20b in my car, it would cost me 5k tops with the engine. That is WITH EMS. Even cheaper if I kept the stock twin turbos.





a 15k figure might be WITH a car, but in a FC i could get it all done for under 10k easily.



ok im done

i kinda like the colors... they don't show up correctly in the pics, the flash makes it look pinkish. It's more of a dark maroon color.

jspecracer7 11-13-2005 04:19 PM

I like the colors! The pink accents the engine bay nicely!

KingFD 11-13-2005 04:32 PM

Looks good.

GreyGT-C 11-13-2005 07:32 PM

only other people with tueb chassis'd, single turbo 20B'd FD's can make fun of the color of my engine.

No your FD just has twins. It comes stock with twins, not much changing there, not very impressive.

GreyGT-C 11-14-2005 01:50 AM

yeah Bobby, you might as well just slapped a set of 99specs on there.

Midnightdriver 11-25-2005 09:18 PM
