Only right back at the start. Still working on getting the new one set up ready for the transplant. Im glad the old flares are gone to. slowly getting there.

Well i have to say i dont know yet about the engerneering side of things, Its still regerstered as a 2L. I have a few loop holes i can use if i need to. My engerneer here will not do a supercharged v6 in my car so i am going to make in NA and put the supercharger back on after. Stock it is only 230hp so that should be no problem.
500hp? flywheel or wheels?? Thats pritty good, should be a rocket with that much. Do you know how much the v6 cossie weighs?? Mine with supercharger(no flywheel) came in at 160kg. I will be pushing to get 400Rwhp/300RwKW. If i have 250-260kw atw and 600+Nm torque by 2000rpm i think it will keep quite happy. You will alway get more HP from turbos but you will never get the torque curve of a supercharger.[:p]
Im having a sook tonight because i have to get the crank ground on the big ends, and new bearings[:(!] So i figured while i have it apart i am getting the heads ported. Gasket matched on the inlet and getting the exausts ported as well, possibly new cam and valve springs and New roller rockers and rings. More money and its still not going[:(!][8~2][8~2]. Oh well i figure its better to do it while it is apart and it will be totally rebuilt then. should add about 50-70RWHP. That should put me up around 250atw, with bigger injectors and port the blower should put me around 270-280RWHP. This is about all i want for starters. Later a Autorotor or Whipple screw type blower ($3000) and that will give me another 100HP[:x)] Im talking in Hp as this is what the guys from the USA with these motors are talking in. Another couple of weeks and i hope to have it back together. Then to sort out the wireing loom[8~2][8~2][8~2].

Yes there is a little bit of room there. I am putting an airbox, intercooler pipeing and electric water pump on the drivers side and on the pasenger side the alternator and intercooler piping, all that room is taken up on mine.
Anything over about 250Kw wont realy be usable i would think. just makes it more fun[:x)][:x)][:x)]

Looks very nice mate. Dont worry once you get 250rwkw you will want more. You can never have enough power. :)

Well i jacked the car up and with the sway bar dropped 50mm the bar is still running down 10mm from the front mounts to the anchor point in the lower control arm. It make heaps of difference under brakes. Only went for test up the road.
I am about to take it for a good flex to see what effect the extra caster (13mm forward) and antidive has on handeling. looks good all painted up.

some awsome bodywork goin on there, can i offer my personal opionion and say perhaps a different colour to white? white is so common and dont feel like will highlight all that time you hav spent on the body. what about somethin with a bit of depth? hot house green or sumthin? or...pink [:X]haha jks. good work tho. how did / do you get 17's through regency?

Thanks guys. Its been a lot of hard, time consuming work i can tell you.
I havent got anything engerneered yet as it is still rego'd as a 2L. If i get pulled up im screwed.[xo][8~2]
I am running 16x7.5's at the moment but the back tyres are about bald so i mite have to swap back to the 17x8's again soon.
Part of the reason why i was going white was so i dont draw so much attention, I love RS's in white and it doesnt stand out so much.[%][%][%] I was thinking phantom purple but i think i will do my other RS that color. It should be ready for painting soon to i think.

I only done the guards because they were already butchered with flares and figured while i was re-doing them why not make it to i can get it low on 17" rims. For people to look at, it looks a lot tuffer than a standard RS even thou they may not be able to work out why. If you paint a car up, people expect it to be good and go well. If it blends in it comes up and bites them in the bum
