Hole was drilled before I called you lol

 

[crownaviation]

Do you have a part number?

God, Jim sure knows how to put together some nice cars!

Indeed he does.

I'm just glad his ass is still in one piece after the plane crash today at his work.

My prayers go out to him and everyone else involved. Hope all is well my man!

 

[crownaviation]

Thanks guys! Down to a few hoses, couple wires and a good once over... k, maybe three or four times over lol. Also need a new mega fuse and holder. Hoses are going to be hard to find with the bend I want but will figure it out

 

[Department Of Boost]

Call me about the belt setup Jim. I need to go over a few details with you.

START IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks badass! Can't wait to seeing this run. I know its a trivial thing g but I like the alternator placement much more on this setup over the gt450 manifold.

I like it better there too. Couldn't be done on the GT450 and be cost effective though. A whole lot of stuff had to change to make that work on the R-spec.

Lol.. probably today

I don't know the details, but I'll take that at face value one quick question that's off topic. Could a *lesser* blower like the oem gt500 or tvs be used on the r-spec? The r spec is a big financial commitment. That said I'm not saying its overpriced. I'm just curious if the r spec can be piece mealed together like the gt45 and be built in stages.

I'll sell you pieces.

Before spring we're going to put a TVS on a friends car using the R-spec. Not sure what to expect yet really.

Im not going to lie that looks so awesome! You have a lot more time into your wire tuck than I do but it looks incredible! Can you buy that loom stuff at Fastenal as well? Id like to clean mine up some more like you did. Also how exactly did you mount your box?

Thanks! I mounted the big in the glove box. Will get a pic soon. Halloween with the kids so did not get much accomplished today. Did mount my Moroso catch can tho

Yeah it definitely looks good. I wouldn't mind moving mine up to there! I guess you just mounted the box to the crossbar somehow?

Yes. I had no option. I also have two painless add a circuits for all my stuff lol. Doing so I will also need to trim the black interior wall of the glove box. So, basically losing the glove box for utility. Nothing in there anyway. I do like that I just open the glove box to get to the fuse box tho

And just dressed up my coolant hoses to the manifold. This stuff is addicting. Like most things (other than supermodels) looks better in person

Wow Jim, those coolant hoses do look great. What is that you used to cover them with?

Interesting. I don't want to muck up your thread any further
