crzyone's "project" car

[sr20-gt30r]

Small update, put on some Advan RG-IIs. 18x9.5. I really like the offset and width.

what's the offset of these wheel?

Really nice car, the wing pwn ! Just one question where did you learned how to paint your car ? i know it seem idiot lol

[Willis]

I didn't paint the car, a friend of mine did. He used to own a restoration business, now he just does paintjobs out of his garage.


I'm not sure what the offset of the rims is, I bought them off another GTR owner.

Nice car
i think it would look much nicer without the wing tho, not a fan of the rice wings

[Willis]

I don't consider 3D carbon fiber wings "rice". Your average stamped aluminum wing from Canadian Tire is rice.

Everything APR sells is functional.

When it comes to racing, every second counts. APR Performance Adjustable Wings can give you that edge to achieve faster lap times. By reducing lift and increasing downforce, you can gain extra traction during high speed cornering.

Although adjustable wings aren’t specifically a suspension component, they play a crucial role to the handling characteristics of a car. By adjusting the angle of attack on an adjustable wing, you can dial in the amount of downforce for better car control. This allows your car to have more or less oversteer characteristics, giving you additional control to tune the rear traction of your car.

All GTC Series wings feature an aerodynamic 3D designed airfoil shape to obtain the optimal balance of downforce. This design allows for a reduction in drag, yet maintains an ideal level of downforce. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Analyses were performed on these wings to support validation of their aerodynamic design.

Each GTC Series airfoil is composed of lightweight and durable carbon fiber composite. Supporting the carbon fiber airfoils are 10mm "aircraft grade" 6061 billet aluminum pedestals that come in a flat black powder coat finish.

Anyways, it's personal preference. The wing is functional and looks good. I do race my car so it is justified.

Started putting my car back together, here is a small preview of the yellow powdercoated parts



I will install the intake soon. When it's all back together and cleaned up I will post another picture. I think it will turn out pretty good.

[mightyrocker]

wow!

thats some sweet color combos

nice build mang!

Nice work Levi. Hey I got my car back together, the engine is on break in right now, pm me if you aren't workin' this weekend. I'd love to see how the car is coming.

[Willis]

Thanks, been working on the car after work these last 3 days. Get home at 8, work on car until 11 and then go to bed...

Have all the piping installed again, the sandblasted parts look pretty good just bare, but I will probably paint them. They would probably get dirty easily and be almost impossible to clean with that rough surface.




I might start removing my intake tonight or tomorrow and installing the yellow one. I have a feeling that is a big job that won't be that fun. Maybe I'll wait to make sure I can get the car running before swapping it out incase the motor has to come out anyways.


Connor, pm sent

[Willis]

Got the car all put together and runing, thought I'd throw up a few pics.

My toys, northstar V-8 powerd fiero and my GTR.





I think it looks really good, will look much better when I get the intake on there as well.





:drive:

[derk]

btw those arent RGII's they are the older RG's which, in my opinion, look 100000000x better than the RGII's

[Willis]

I realized that after I saw pictures of RGs and RGIIs. They were advertised as RGIIs so that is what I went by.

I agree, I like RGs better as well. I like the blue stripe on them.

[Connor]

So it's driving fine now? Very odd indeed.

[PH_Motorsports]

nice car
why didnt you put the painted intake plenum on ?

[Willis]

So it's driving fine now? Very odd indeed.

Driving nicely now, found one of the MAFs had a lose connection. I forgot how smooth the powerband is. Got used to driving the fiero which is pretty raw.
