Snjur Posted December 3, 2016 Author Posted December 3, 2016 Found it in Germany as per seller description it has been inspired by Corrvette bumper Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk Quote
Snjur Posted December 3, 2016 Author Posted December 3, 2016 We'll see how it will look in darker color. I think I will paint inner side of opening in black area around mesh Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk Quote
Snjur Posted January 10, 2017 Author Posted January 10, 2017 (edited) Not much going here except throwing numbers on plain paper. In month to come I plan to go on fuel upgrade ID 1000 ccm and Walbro 450, so I will have my DeatschWerks 800 CCM injectors for sale which where bought new and have around 6k miles. Plug n play for Z. Some brake upgrades as I got some fine deal for Dba 5000 series in front combined with Carbotech Xp10 and rear T3 and Xp10. My old setup but almost like new 9.5/10 EBC GD rotors front and rear will be for sale. Cooling upgrade as adventure with Mishimoto was disaster I would like to try Skunk2 Alpha series radiator. Suspension I was thinking to go with Tein Monoflex but at the end of the month I'm going to make deposit for Meister R Gt1's. So again bit movement and plans. Goal is to to reach 800 bhp Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk Edited January 10, 2017 by Snjur Quote
Snjur Posted January 11, 2017 Author Posted January 11, 2017 So hoping it will be better luck with this radiator than it was with Mishimoto Just bought it Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk 1 Quote
Snjur Posted January 13, 2017 Author Posted January 13, 2017 Weeeeeee bumper arrived today. Will post pictures bit later. Now I need to order R33 bumper intakes to increase as much as possible airflow to radiator. I thinks it should look cool Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk 1 Quote
GMballistic Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Excellent. Can't wait to see how it looks once you've fitted it. Quote

celiabaker Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 Wow what a build thread! Took me a while to read through it! Amazing! Massive commitment! 1 Quote
Snjur Posted February 4, 2017 Author Posted February 4, 2017 Wow what a build thread! Took me a while to read through it! Amazing! Massive commitment! Thank you. Hopefully in next month we will finish small bits and pieces and round this up on 100%. Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk 2 Quote
Snjur Posted February 7, 2017 Author Posted February 7, 2017 Have you got the coilovers on yet? Nope I reckon should be week or two before I get them. And another week or two till I mount them as I'm not home Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk Quote
Snjur Posted February 25, 2017 Author Posted February 25, 2017 Long time awaited upgrade. Full Windows OS HP tablet which is going to be connected with Haltech. Mounting position is where OEM Sat navigation was placed. 7" fits perfectly there. Tested already. I'm not a fan of bunch of gauges so this is perfect replacement for my taste Haltech test Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk 1 Quote
Snjur Posted March 16, 2017 Author Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) So..... All has been going slow lately but hopefully things will start rolling next week. Skunk2 Alpha radiator looks marvelous. I would say a finger thicker than OEM and almost two thinner than Mishimoto I had. Quality of work details and all is exceptional. Will picture it later and post. Meister R GT1. No need to brag much about that Jerrick has presented all very well. Quality of build and details is top notch. You can see that guys know their stuff and that is not something which is just builded of the production line in numbers. Bumper I'm very surprised on lightness and flexibility for fiber bumper. Although they say is a mix of fiber and Abs plastic I still don't see how you can mix those 2 things. All in all light bumper i reckon even lighter than OEM and very flexible. Still didn't try to test fit it but seller promised it was 99% match. I was thinking waging to go OEM HR hood and again. Child in me woke up and I went with HR hood. But in CF and vents. What can I do I just have a soft spot for CF hoods Still awaiting on ID1050X and piggy tails. Plus I have on order from Adrian clear LED rear turn signals which. Can't wait to get my hands on them. As well as DBA 2 piece front rotors and T3 solid rears with Xp10 Carbotech pads all around. Hp Stream 7 has arrived and we need to wire and plug it. Dash cam as well front and rear recording with 32GB memory. Need to make a barging for Sparco R100 in leather. Here and there but again plenty bits have been collected.

Snjur Posted March 18, 2017 Author Posted March 18, 2017 Will need bit of work to fit but really minimal It's a good quality bumper. Buddy is now forcing me to increase more this front opening Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk 1 Quote
Sargara Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I think thats a wise move considering your previous overheating issues, the more airflow the better Quote
Snjur Posted March 18, 2017 Author Posted March 18, 2017 I think thats a wise move considering your previous overheating issues, the more airflow the better I have removed aircon so I will first test new Skunk2 Alpha radiator in combination with this bumper. It is wider almost 15 centimeters than oem bumper Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk Quote

Snjur Posted March 25, 2017 Author Posted March 25, 2017 Finally!! We started the car yesterday. AFR on stock camshafts is identical on bank 1 and 2. In higher RPM's where before with Crapysworth was up to 30% now is within 0.5%. Unfortunately Cosworth is just name on paper. Name that they build legacy in past but now.... Nothing better than no name products Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk Quote
TT350 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Aren't they just parts Cosworth has let use their name? Like Ibanez claim to use EMG pickups in some upper lower range models but they're really just budget Ibanez Infinity pickups. Quote
Snjur Posted March 25, 2017 Author Posted March 25, 2017 Actually they are Kelford cams. Thing which bothers me the most is that they just cover their butt with sentence "No warranty on racing parts". Part which is obviously defected you are putting in sale Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk Quote
