How the hell did I miss this build for so long? This thing is sick, nice work.

Gunzero · 01-19-2012, 11:58 AM

PLEASE help me paint my car matte black XD

Perf.Des · 01-19-2012, 09:44 PM

Just pieced together an oil cooler setup.

Ark exhaust arrives tomorrow, Stillen SC on Monday

Has anyone used the HKS Comp2 to moniter things such as boost pressure? Instead of putting in a bunch of guages, I was thinking of using that and a screen to monitor everything.

Stillen SC showed up....kinda. UPS pretty much destroyed the box which in turned did some significant damage to the main pipe, the pully, and the fuel assembly. Now the fun process of filing a claim. Grrrr of frustration.

Neat...z1 oil cooler kit arrived

still working out the ups claim for ruining the sc kit

I was going to say if paint comes out looking that black.....

Wheels look good though1!

What's the point of paying for UPS insurance if UPS can deny any claim on the basis of "UPS didnt package it"? Now I get to shell out for replacement parts that got damaged in shipping. Grrr of epic frustration. We'll see how the appeal process goes.

Gunzero · 02-05-2012, 02:49 PM

Good luck man.

captain-nok · 02-22-2012, 08:44 PM

car looks good.. nice way to be different.. but still keep the jdm look..

Perf.Des · 02-23-2012, 08:22 AM

Thanks. Spent a ton of time in the paint and airbrushing phase. Looking forward to installing my exhaust and SC this spring.

Perf.Des · 02-23-2012, 01:02 PM

Well, now that UPS officially sucks...I can start with the supercharger build. Ill post progress pics as I go.

I will be making slight changes like thermal wrapping the intake, braided lines with AN fittings on everything, and things like that. Will also be installing my Ark exhaust and hfcs.

captain-nok · 02-23-2012, 08:09 PM

looks like we got the same exhaust... any how good luck with build.. looks like you pay attention to detail.. so finishing up the ride wont be any trouble for you..

Perf.Des · 02-27-2012, 09:40 PM

Just ordered all my hoses and fittings. Now I just need the hfcs to show up so I can get started.
