Project: Ultimate Response GTS-T

[klys]

pics of the BMW



he ran 1:02.xxx

I ran 1:04.0xxx


the winner in modified RWD was a mustang GT with Baer Brakes and R compound tires

he ran a low 1:02.0xx

Fred Girard ran 1:02.xxx with his skyline on street tires


the other GTS-T ran 1:07.xxx I think.



Fastest car out there!!

[Alexandru]

yea that Mustang had massive calipers !

[klys]

Thanks so the official results are out

Wooohooo I'm almost only 1sec slower than Fred :P

On a side note the Lotus Elise driver has a VERY fast car!

and, he's the brother of GTRC Member Dcoty

Also Got me a brand new ORC 709D twin plate clutch!

pics to come

it's a beaut to bad it's all hidden up in the tranny

I wrote it was a 709D

but it's actually a 709 non dampered twin plate

You'll either love it or hate it.

I've got a 709 series twin ORC with the sprung hub. It bites like a pitbull on crack. It takes a bit (ok a lot!) of getting used to, but I don't think it'll ever slip.

just did my timing belt!

that another worry out of my mind :P

next up is the Clutch install probably in the next two weeks

[klys]

Well it's finally been done

Clutch is installed!

One thing I must say ... FARKING **** !!!

the ORC 709 (not D) clutch is brutal....

and the response is even more ultimate. more on this later

it doesn't have a sprunged hub so I have to be extra synchronise to shift...

smooth 1st gear engagements... are for the time being inexistant.. and I managed to stall 2-3 times hehe ... the friction point is basically non existant

BUT DAMN I already love it... and the rev seems to climb even faster!

I finally found out what my ex twin plate brand was.

I had an OS giken twin plate which was dampered.

I'll try to give you a quick DIY guide soon for the ORC 709 ... as there is basically no info in english on the net.

all I can say is that the clutch responds VERY quickly and the shift are even faster ... so all the better for my track outings!

Now I'll have to relearn the clutch as I've driven only 15 mins with it but one thing I can't wait is to try it at the track and see how it goes

-stay tuned

[GTR-Dad]

I've got the ORC 709 twin as well. I've described it as biting like a pitbull on crack!

It's either settling down with break-in or I'm getting used to it - not too bad now. Gotta tell you I was a bit worried when I first felt it engage.

here are pics with my new HID kit installed.

kinda hard to see but I can tell you it looks REALLY nice!



please ignore the lens flare

[tokes]

Looks like there just isn't enough tension in the belt.

[DeviantRebel442]

sounds like a good project GL

[klys]

Looks like there just isn't enough tension in the belt.

the belt was changed as well as the tensionner bearings

Well it's winter and I'm bored as hell so I decided to "teach" myself adobe illustrator... here's a... 100% vector based sketch well minus the picture in the back

I'm really in my first steps but I'm learning new stuff everyday. today I discovered: Blend and wow it's REALLY a great tool hehe

comments or hints are welcome!



here's the original pic

[klys]

well I've now had my LMGT-4s fr a while now.

here are some pics





the story behind the little white house in Chicoutimi:
July 1996:

a major flood destroys everything in it's path after a dam gives way upstream.
Well except this little house.

[Skym]

I like the car. Interesting story behind that little house.
