Engine Wise,
My target horse power is always 100bhp more than I have, The foz has nearly 200bhp more than when she rolled out of the factory, and I'm still not content!
My Turbo will probably do the guts of 500bhp / 600lb/ft with my motor, so I suppose that's the realistic target for the time being,
I'll need a better intercooler to acheive that, but defo don't want to go for the traditional FMIC setup and pipe work, So when that deos happen, it will probibly be rotated inlet manilfod, and rotate the compressor wheel of the turbo 120 deg to face up and over the passenger side of the motor, maybe a narrower rad so the pipes can go straight out the front, so pipe work should only be about 1.2 Metres in total!

Body,
I don't have a big spoiler, So I'll go for a gobstopper 2 style rear under body defuser, cut up into the bumper and they don't start working untill very high speed so it shouldn't affect my arse out messing at mondello, but will help keep her planted when I get to the Ring! I'll move the back box as far to the left as possible and put an other one on the right hand side for symmetry and quieten her down a bit, that would leave abou 1.2Meters between them for the defuser, also some 10mm spacers for my black road wheels (making 35mm offset) and wider tyres,

Suspension,
I'd love in car adjustablity, I know there are adjustable shocks available, But in my carpenters head, I think it would be do-able have a motor on the front camber adjustment bolts, so you can go from tyre friendly 1.5 deg neg camber to track friendly 3.5 deg neg at the touch of a button, same applys to the the Rear anti roll bar adjustment, by a hydrolicly powered sliding drop link mounting point!

Interior,
I'd love a Type 25 style leather interior,

That's all, for the time being, :icon_biggrin:

What are you guys aspiring to??

dan trying to make a fesibal list , but my head and my heart are having a fight over what i want, and what i need/can afford . :hammerhead: :wall: :icon_hang:


as the man says , its not a matter of how much you want , its how much cash can you throw at it without being stupid/crazy/mental :icon_eyes:


personally a wide arch with 400/400 would get me started , but from reading forums , enough is never enough and will always want more .

gave a mate a spin only last night , and he was saying how quick she felt, as 1 or two others have recently, but from my eyes , it could be faster

currently about 324bhp @1.4 bar



may the hunt begin !! :icon_headbang:and the saving s dissappear :icon_cry:
 
As mac mac said when money is there I would do the following.

Engine
Few things I want to do now after the 2.1 stroker I got this year is to fit a 20g turbo and bigger injectors
and then a remap to suit. Should be happy then but will need a better gearbox also to hold everything together.

Body
Finished with exterior plans but something carbon might pop up.(side skirts/roof) :icon_grin:

Suspension
Front and rear anti roll bars and a set up.

Interior
New age blue bug sti seats and fit my gauges will finish the car off. :thumbsup:
 
Went down the power route with the last car so this time its styling and drivability.....
 
also when ever the money is there...............

engine and drivetrain : full running gear from a v8-v9 sti jdm including twin scroll engine setup gearbox drives subframes wishbones everything then fit owen developments uprated twin scroll turbo with injectors and front mount and remap to suit would hopefully buy a crashed donor car for the parts

suspension :set of ohlins road spec coilovers already have poly bushes and whiteline bars and anti lift kit so coilovers would finish it nicely

brakes :6 pot ap kit up front and 4 pot ap kit for the rear

wheels:i would fit a set of 9x19 ultralite atec 2 rims in black or antricite for the road and a set of oz allegera hlt rims for the track as they are very light with toyo r888 tyres

body :; full conversion to saloon body panels front wings, front bumper, rear doors, quarter panels ,and v9 arch lips carbon boot lid and carbon bonnet also carbon wrap the roof and fit spec c roof hatch

interior; full retrim and change the grey leather to black dye the roof cloth black and change pillar panels for black ones .

exhaust :buy another blitz nur spec and get it fabricated so i have one each side of car


better keep doin the lotto me thinks :ponder2: :thumbsup:
 
Aiming for a low ten sec 1/4 mile.
Iv already done 11.5 with 538bhp so with my new bigger turbo coming in i should be pushing 800-850bhp

Short term: daily reliable driver that only requires proper servicing at the right intervals.

Long term: striped out track car with a blob or mint bug for daily use.
