You guys wanted more pics...You got em!

Quick · 09-20-2012, 07:45 AM

Nice. It's starting to look like a working car again. Can't wait to see it on the dyno.

What size wheel/ tire setups will go on the car?

The current plan is a set of 18x10s with 275/35 tires. Might go a little wider depending on the tire we can stuff in there.

joshuaj · 09-29-2012, 12:43 AM

With a roll and pull 285/295s on a 9.5" will fit. Prob not worth the headache. 275s R6ish tires work well on the GR.

This is the plan. If we can not fit them, we will see about flares.

Do you guys have a 3D Printer? I like your carbon fiber parts. Im guessing you made them?

AkumaMotorsports · 09-29-2012, 04:06 PM

I did make the CF NACA duct, but I do not have a 3d printer. I was able to make a mold and do a wet layup. It is not structural, so I was not worried about maximizing the strength of the piece.

thx.

well done sir! I did an intake manifold for a FSAE Car and a Gauge Panel. I have to show you

because I know the feeling of pulling off a well done lamination like you have done from what I can see.

so sick! keep up the good work!

AkumaMotorsports · 11-07-2012, 10:46 AM

Hey Guys Brand new update! The brake ducts are ready for installation so here is the mockup... Let us know what you think!

scby rex · 11-07-2012, 09:29 PM

Would work better in the front of the car. Who makes those ducts?

AkumaMotorsports · 11-07-2012, 09:55 PM

I made the ducts. If I can not get enough cool air from the underside, I can change the orientation. I am hoping to have it started up tomorrow too.

How do you guys have your kill switch mounted/ wired up? assuming you have one...

IIRC it was either Dunk's car, or BoostJunkie's, (or someone elses, I may be wrong) where they had mounted their NACA ducts on the underside of the splitter, and did not get the flow they were looking for.

I'd go with a front bumper inlet for sure.

Nice build as well, hopefully see you at some GTA events next season!

scby rex · 11-11-2012, 07:03 PM

I think both tried it from the bottom with crap results. Its all low pressure under there.

AkumaMotorsports · 11-13-2012, 03:03 PM

You have to have a tab to direct air in the NACA. I will get pics when we are finished.

John

joshuaj · 11-13-2012, 07:31 PM

Front mount FTW

RoidRage · 11-13-2012, 09:08 PM

Sweet build, I always thought the 3076 would be a nice match for this car.

Are you guys doing anything to the diffs?

Is there a kit for the brake duct bracket (that mounts to the hub/rotor) for the AP 6 pots?

Good luck have fun!

Rear diff has already been swapped out for a Carbonetic. Waiting on the front diff to come in from Japan

AkumaMotorsports · 11-27-2012, 12:23 PM

Thanks.

We are working on the corner balance and alignment today...3035LBS wet. We will see if we can shave the last 50 or so with some Lexan.

Got to check the rules, mounting options, etc
