Thanks! That is the plan, next track day I’ll be there!
looks good excellent work I think I want my car done by that guy. I have some dents and stuff that needs taken care of. awesome car too
Been a while since I updated:
Momo Tuner wheel + NRG short hub and QR, CircuitHero shift extension + JDM ITR CF climate control
remove some crap clogging up the bay
Carbon hood
Boost project is in its beginning stages…so stay tuned.
BTW, tjz28…it ended up being a very competent setup on the track, better than I had expected…so she’ll be racing much more next season. Best time so far was 1min23sec on BeaveRun North Course.
Hope the parts I have for you are part of that boost project! 
Of course they are, but it’s only the beginning I have loads of parts foraging to do, sigh. Get ready wallet, you’re about to be flogged.
lol. Lookin good.
sweet pics…but steve i think some1 stole ur steering wheel in the first pic:rofl: :tounge:
I’m not surprised, they make great track/AutoX cars with a few subtle mods. If I wasn’t a RWD junkie I’d probably have one.
Congrats!

Good rolling shot Eric took on the way home from the T-I meet.
Fall/Winter '07 300+whp turbo build has begun, I’ll update as much as possible.
Looking good and good luck with the boost. I’m switching some stuff up on my setup this winter so I’ll have some Bseries stuff up for sale.
Well, new plans for the winter hiatus. Motor will be getting rebuilt and will be using a set of GSXR 1000 ITB’s (Thanks Joe) for next season. It’s going to be interesting setting these up and tuning them.
I started porting/polishing the modified GSR intake manifold flange to clean up some weld/misalignment issues. Here is a teaser pic of runner #4 before and after:
Look at the lip on the bottom of the runner:
After 1 session of reshaping, still need to smooth and polish:
There will be a limit to how smooth I can get the floor of where the extension and the runner meet…if I smooth it completely I’ll go through the weld. With butterflies less than 200mm from the valve face though, it won’t matter too much I don’t think Will post progress as I go.
sweet…g/l
I delt with Derek before…real cool dude and I saw his work…the boy has skills.
I haven’t updated this in quite a while….here are the details of this years build. As of right now everything is back into the car already….waiting on extended IM studs and that is pretty much it. This should net me a much more useable torque curve than last years 180whp build…which was the entire point of screwing with it……well that and the fact that I spun the #1 rod bearing on the last lap of the last track session of the year. Luckily I didn’t drive it home, and the crank was just lightly scuffed. Looking forward to the ’09 season……
New setup for 2009:
B18c1 block bored to 81.5mm, decked .004”
LS crank (89mm stroke) micropolished and balanced to .1g.
Eagle I-beam rods, ACL bearings
81.5mm Wiseco +8.25CC pistons (12.25 static CR)
ARP headstuds
Cometic .036” headgasket
Golden Eagle oil-squirter block off kit
B18c1 head, mild P-n-P
ITR valvetrain, valves and cams
RC 370 sat/high imp injectors
Walbro 255lph pump
Portmatched Skunk2 IM w/ Hondata gasket
STR fuel rail, supplied by -6AN braided hose / Russell filter (stock system completely removed)
Rage 1.8 long tube header
SMSP 2.5” 300 cell spun cat
Lots of other odds and ends went into it, including the FLP shifter I waited two fu cking years for. Shift knobs level with dash vents FTW, lol. Plan is to tune and cornerweight in the next month, full shakedown most likely won’t happen until March or so. Also plan to stop running Azenis for auto-x this year….they haven’t been the fast tire for a year or two now….RE-01R’s for this year should work nicely, especially since the StarSpec is getting tough to find in my particular size and this years new releases aren’t going to hit the market until at least May. Before anyone points out that these cams aren’t ideal for 12.5:1…I’m well aware of it…not touching the head until the fall.
Your getting a porno shifter :kekegay: Glad to hear it will be back together and ready to kick ass next year. You buying new tires? What size are you looking for?
The “other” brown guy wants to unload his 195/50’s for cheap…I figured I’d pick his up, as well as yours (assuming they are still for sale) and get rid of my stockpile of Azenis (I have 12 of them)
Sorry I sold mine awhile ago. Unless I decide to pawn off my current set of RE01s. Wasn’t really planning on it since I won’t be in STS much next year, so the need to have the lastest & greatest tire isn’t something I have to deal with right now. Still I keep a eye out for you.
sounds good so far buddy
Awesome … Goodluck with everything
Awesome. Good to see that someone is working on their Honda. hahaha.
