hey guys, brewer made a post awhile back about aaron's car, and i just thought i'd post up some pics, update info, and a partial dyno graph (blows the tires off at 6600 RPMs, no matter how we strap it down. probably gonna get on a dyno with a bigger roller, or maybe a dynapack)

here's the outside. nothing blingy, just all jdm lighting and side mouldings, ek sideskirts, a cf duckbill and hood, some rotas, and a big-*** radiator


here's the engine bay before we wiretucked it and repainted it


here it is after the wiretuck (thanks for all your help EF8kid!!!!!!) and bay spray


a new exterior pic:


and finally, the dyno graph. this is only up until the tires blow off at 6600 RPMs (the car revs to 8500, and pulls harder and harder


peak hp is estimated at around 600-650. this is at 25 PSI with a GT35R peakboost kit.

I built the engine, and Aaron broke it in for about 2500 miles, then we turboed it. i tuned it on Hondata S300, and it runs incredible! you can't hardly hold onto it in 3rd or 4th on the interstate

Much thanks to brewer for the awesome pictures!

How does one go about getting a safe tune without being able to keep that thing strapped down?

nice, the car looks great. those are good numbers too.

well, i've tuned plenty of cars to know what it's gonna need in unmeasured conditions. the fuel's there, and the timing is perfect.

That car is pretty sexy indeed I really like that valve cover

To bad the IC pipes arn't hooked up in the first pic...haha

yeah, lol, but that's the only pic of the outside of the car that i have. for some reason, all the pics end up being of the engine

awesome! love the setup, congrats on the wheel spin

looks good

any shot of the interior? Car definitley is one of the best looking Honda hatchbacks ive ever seen, yet so simple. MAD PROPS!

HKSuperSi

very nice numbers.

stdefhatch

very nice #'s, and clean bay

Mase

uh how are you strapping it down? and what gear are you using?

you shouldnt have any issues with traction on a dyno jet. ive used the cheapest tire known to man on stock gsr blades and been able to hold 650 whp just fine on a dynojet.

when the tires break loose, the rpms should rise but the acceleration of the roller wont increase.

how does the graph look in mph mode?

Call me crazy, but if it is hard to hold on to in 3rd and 4th on the interstate, is it actually safe to drive on the road. Still, very good numbers, and nice car.

thanks. the interior is totaly stock besides a momo tuner steering wheel. he's about to get a kirk racing rollbar, some recaro SRD's, and probably some harnesses, just to make the car safe.

we put 4 straps on the front of it, on the tow hooks and the LCAs, we tried 4th and 5th gear (in 5th it blows the tires off at ~140 mph) this was with 16" NeoGen's with 32, 25, 20, and 16 psi in them.

trust me i tried everything i could because a big show was coming up and i wanted a complete graph. in MPH mode, the speed stops going up, slows a bit, levels out, slows a bit more, etc, but it's just for a split second, because it goes from 6600 RPM to 8500 instantly. it's got an LS tranny with a quaife, so there's just too much power and too long of a gear for the tires to hold.

if i can, i'll get somebody to get a digital video camera of a couple runs. it's pretty insane. if i had some way to pull the front end straight down, instead of forward and down, i think it would hold. plus it was cold as hell in the shop when we were dynoing.

i mean, you can drive it normally. it's an awesome daily driver, but downshift to 3rd and punch it, and it's pretty much terrifying

what are the insulated rubber lines on the right for? oil cooler??

DelSolDon

how about you fix that negative camber to get a larger tire patch on the ground/ dyno.

**** looks sickkkk

Looks great, sick numbers

19sec beast

What engine? LS/VTEC, GSR?

Race gas or pump?

Nice

That is an awesome car, Shawn. If you get some video footage, Post it up. I would love to see a dyno run on this thing.

This car is INSANE!!!!! 4th gear on the interstate just lifts up and then torque steers like whoooowhattt!!!!!

Thanks to who for the help
