Just thought I'd post a pic of what 2L of Supercharged Grunt can do.

Of course anything like this is done on a private road.

sweet ride champ, so with the way your supercharger is set up it looks like you have made an extension for the clutch.can you give me some details as this way is more tidy compared to the way i had it on my tf cortina
cheers

Im interested in how you extended the pulley shaft of the supercharger? Really nice setup you have there.

Where did you run the belt from? and do you have a belt tensioner somewhere?

Boys,
Not real easy mate did the fabrication to make the extension housing and then press fitted a metal bush in the end (from memory) works well.

Belt tensioner is in the mix between the crank pulley and the supercharger... I have the radiator out at the moment so I will take some pics and post them up in the next couple of days.

Ok more updates, car has been going well (save for breaking the gearbox at wakefield the day after the october cruise) still no pics of the pulleys but there is news there too.
So far we have half completed the brake conversion changing from capri front brakes, same as MK2 2L brakes over too something larger with 4 spot calipers, I bought some R32 GTS-T Skyline ones but no matter what we did we couldnt get them to fit but now we are having a win with one side figured out and half connected so just another bracket to make and a wait til Friday for the stainless lines to turn up, we have managed to fit (just) a 300mm (11") DBA rotor behind the 15" Wheel (had to take the stick on wheel weights off as they were fouling the brake caliper) with some alloy 4 spot calipers whole set up cost less than $500 w/lines and is lighter than the JAP S#*T plus BRAND NEW ! and looks huge !

NEXT is adjustable Strut Tops, Strut Brace, Supra Gearbox conversion and Carpet plus detail the whole car for before THIS Sunday for the Car Show in Tamworth.

Should have some pics by Friday but I also picked up another project today ! Fully caged MK1 2 DOOR, needs everything done bar the cage work (paint/mechanicals) but I was quoted $2K for the same cage that is in the car now so I'm way ahead to start with ! Car will be "RACE ONLY" though. More pics and a new thread tomorrow, this will be a slower moving project though until the new motor is in the street car and then I will have a power plant to go into the racer :)
