Engine bay looks compact as hell. And is that a steering kit (rack and pinion)?
Good stuff.

Looks great. Do you have any cooling issues with the intercooler mounted right infront of the radiator? What are the dimensions of that intercooler?

Looks like a REspeed kit. VERY NICE.
I spy an RX-3 SP in the background. Pose some pics of that bad boy!

Yeah its the ReSpeed Front crossmember and Rack and Pinion.. Its alittle tight in the engine bay but not bad at all..

Na never had a cooling issue.. The car still has the front vents to direct the AIR into the intercooler and i had the stock rad. before and now I have the Griffin so it should cool even better.. Another thing you can not see my intercooler from the front of the car.. I will post some pics of the front of the car...
Looks like fun. Definitely post some videos.
Nice RX-3, too. ;)
Yes the car is a BLAST... I do have a few videos of the car.. The car went 10.84 and its a street car.. FUN FUN.. And as far as the Rx3 its my buddies car..
Looks like a REspeed kit. VERY NICE.

Tires are pretty big, even without the IC out front, not many people would want to mess with you with a stance like that.
Interesting hood graphics too...

What are the dimensions of the intercooler. If you don't mind me asking, what brand is it, and where did you get it?
I'm about to swap in a turbo 13B also. That's why I ask. Don't worry, mine wont be as pretty as yours, or as fast from the looks of that turbo. :)

car looks great! I have that same intercooler on my FB. It fits very nice and it retained all the AC stuff. What is your best ET and mph? How much boost and RWHP are you making?

Looks nice. I haven't had a chance to see the vids but the pics are sweet. What's with the hood? The guy's head looks weird, am I not looking at it right?

My most recent best time was a 10.86 at 124 with a 1.4 60ft. That was at 13/14 psi... I will be turning it up for this weekend at Pan Ams.. Not sure on the HP???

well
Bryan@BNR
07-30-2008, 10:31 AM
my guess on the power is around 360-375 RWHP at that boost level. That 60 ft is great! What rear end and gearing are you running and also tires?
