The season in Canada starts in April and we plan to be ready for battle.. Only thing we still need to figure out is what suspension (Shocks/Springs) we are going to use. We have The MB rear and Ken Kustom Chassis Hot-Rod Wheelie Bars already.

Exhaust Manifold is a custom unit. Intake manifold started life as a D16z6 stocker. Intake manifold was made by RLZ.

None has gone 9s with a D-series. We hope to be the first. Plus, we are Canadian, we like to be different.

Why do you need suck a big fuel cell are you running meth? How's about a 1 gallon. But I guess if weight isnt a factor then???

mark... why don't you just buy a one gallon cell to go where battery used to be. Be much easier as you don't have to make fittings locations and get foam for inside the cell and tie downs will be simpler.

Other than that looks good, best of luck.

I want to have more than a gallon of fuel. I will be driving this car back down the return road and around the pits. While a 1 gallon might of been suffice, I would rather have enough fuel for 2 complete passes, instead of just one. The car is Turbo/Nitrous powered so, I wanted to ensure the fuel is not going to run out.

Tabs are easy with John around.. John has been working his TIG welder overtime and I just have to supply the coffee and make the templates of the stuff.

Thanks for the folks.

Only way to go racing I remember when I used to use Bald snow tires for more grip at the track.. I broke my first Miata LSD with a set of 13" Blizzaks!

John fabbed up the Nitrous Bottle Mount today, and harassed me while I continue with the wiring mission.

Man,

You and wiring don't go well together. Remember when you wrapped my 4 gauge power wire around the steering column of my GTI? What a disaster, I hope your skills are better. LOL! Any more pictures?

I was trying to kill you!! Damn, you will not let me forgot that. That was a long time ago. Almost a decade dude. Things are better now. No more pics yet, just getting the wires ready to crimp with the AMP crimp tool. (I hate this part)
