This car was my father's daily driver and has been in my family since 1995. Built it not once but twice. I think the pictures can explain what happened..

When I was 10 my friends got bored and decided to spray paint it black and write on it with chalk.


Painted championship white when I was 16. Stock LS with a b16 trans.


Stock LS


I did not take these, the Chief of my fire department did (Yes I am a fireman and couldn't do anything )

Setup 2010


Here is my horrible run at Atco Honda Day. I don't know what happened my clutch seemed to be slipping so I sprayed some brake clean around the transs and it solved the problem. At the end of the day my best pass was 11.3 @ 121.





The Current Setup:
-81.5mm Stock Sleeve B18A Bottom End
-GSR Head, gasket matched intake/exhaust side.
-InlinePRO Valve Springs
-ITR Cams
-T/3 Go-Autoworks Ram Manifold
-Precision 6765 Billet
-Injector Dynamics 1000's
-Skunk2 Intake Manifold
-Precision 750hp Intercooler

Made 466 on Pump Gas at 17psi. I didn't want to push it so we stopped there. I also went 11.1 on the old setup and am hoping to go 10's this year..

Pics of the engine bay present will be up whenever verizon will fix the freakin' towers where I live so I can send the pics.

Please let me know what you think!! Thank you!!

 

im assuming this is all the same car? if so thats some serious dedication!


congrats on sticking with it. i am also a fireman. why wasnt the chief putting any water on the fire?

 

Yes it is the same car. The reason my Chief wasn't putting water on the car is because he doesn't have a pump built into his truck. Where I live it is 100% volunteer. Are you career or volly?

 

for sticking with it.
The car looks great now

 

Thanks!! Check out the last pic, it has your manifold in it!!

Awesome!! I myself am a truckie at heart as well but when/if I ever get the chance to go career with the way the economy is I plan on going to an engine company first and then to a truck.
