Green-Eggs · 07-23-2010, 01:50 PM

The first task has been completed which is getting the car to LA. Now to get a long list of modifications completed. The purpose of these modifications is mainly for track use.

These are the modifications in store:

1. RD Sport RS46 Stroker 4.0 to 4.6L
2. Stop Tech or Brembo BBK (leaning more towards Stop Tech Trophy)
3. KW Variant 3 or Clubsport
4. Rogue SSK
5. Performance Steering Wheel
6. RD Sport Sway Bars
7. Auto Power Roll Bar
8. Meisterchaft Exhaust
9. Afe Air Filter
10. Wheels
11. Sparco Seats - Maybe
12. Front Lip & Rear Diffuser - Maybe
13. ??

Here are some pictures of how it currently looks.

Hope Pencilgeek doesn't mind the pictures

Picture 1 - The motor should look like this soon

Picture 2 - Stop Tech Trophy looks amazing

Picture 3 - Looks so bare

Picture 4 - Can't wait to get the steering wheel

Picture 5 - Getting the Auto Power 4 point

you should look into a free flowing muffler and catless x-pipe, meisterschaft is very restricting, i use to have the GT2 and while the sound was amazing the power gain was non existent

Poppin Fresh · 07-23-2010, 04:03 PM

Doesn't "free flowing" usually mean it will drone? If not I think a Super Sprint sport will suit you well.

Same thing I thought. I was going to recommend looking into the FULL Gintani Race. Ridiculous sound, ridiculous gains.

couldnt have said it better myself

karussell · 07-23-2010, 05:54 PM

loving where this is going. my kind of mods. how are the stoptech trophy's compared to the brembo gran turismo set? I also preferred brembo because easier to modulate, but no experience with the trophy 6 piston calipers.

i had the brembos, i switched over to the stoptech trophy.. they bite MUCH harder

Powerbeast · 07-23-2010, 08:56 PM

Cant wait to see the final result. Im sure with you and Sam putting some major thought into this car the out come will be amazing.

aka_phox · 07-23-2010, 09:05 PM

Wow! There goes the warranty! I can't imagine...

Dartanium · 07-23-2010, 09:12 PM

does stoptech trophy system come in 380mm kit? what price range?

maybe even brembo GTR/Race system if you are dedicating the car to track

SleepyE90 · 07-23-2010, 09:17 PM

Lol thats why you were in SF the other day!
Sam, you still haven't called me back!

dvpouldar26 · 07-23-2010, 09:36 PM

Wow sam. Saw this car when I was at autotalent a few days ago for jason's e92 m3. Cant wait to see the final results. Everytime I see robert's car, it still amazes me. Seeing his block in the corner there made me wonder what he can do next lol Please post final pics.

PS: Sam, I'm still laughing to your reaction of how low Jason's car is. haha

leeor · 07-23-2010, 10:17 PM

nice! lets see this!

why stroker, if you dont mind me asking...

Bob MG · 07-24-2010, 12:00 AM

Stop tech trophy are really impressive! Much lighter. Go the route and go Akrapovic Evolution catless X pipe

For track, I would be trying to shed weight all over the place so above seems logical.

Are you going SC?

hey I saw this car at Sonic MS in norcali a few days ago!

MasterDank · 07-24-2010, 02:32 PM

Well $H!T if you guys have welding capabilities which it looks like with the cage .. Build your own exhaust and while your at it make some headers for the stroker.

DO WORK SON!!

Wish i had the chance to build a car for the track, But that would require a track.. stupid pacific ocean..lol JJ it makes it posable to live here.

Good luck with the build

H Bomb · 07-24-2010, 03:07 PM

after speaking with a few race car drivers and other people who know about this kind of thing i was told the Stroker is better suited to racing and track driving where as a SC is better for drag racing and bragging rights ie i got the most power

now i know there are some that use the SC on the track but from what i was told the stroker car can turn a faster lap with equal drivers. just like in case with a P car the race version like the GT3 RS are NA vs the 911 TT. the TT beats it in drag racing but on the track the GT3 will take it

this is what i was told i have no personal exp with the stroker or SC so don't hold me to it. there both awesome mods just apples to oranges depends what you want

Isn't that a function of the pad used more than the rotor/caliper?
