What's the width on that wing?

I think it looks good. Seems to have a good airfoil shape from the pics. You tried playing with the angle of attack at all? Big seat of the pants feel?

I'm currently wingless... mulling it over in my mind if it's a big difference in feel.

lflkajfj12123 · 04-23-2009, 12:19 AM

its a huge difference

i've never had a wing

but they tested them with different angles in an option video and you can literally watch the difference in the guys runs

IIIXziuR · 04-23-2009, 06:06 AM

you can't spell GreaT with out GT WING

Johny5 · 04-27-2009, 08:55 PM

ummm yeah, i miss my cars a lot

did some work on the s13 gauge cluster setup

this should be the final product

did the gauge cuts but haven't placed the defi controller or volt readout..

its 1/4" acrylic that will be wrapped in 2-way stretch black suede, should look pretty spicey. the LED voltage readout is green to match defi gauges lit up

and i got to drive aubre's car on sunday after we put on the new ma knuckles and front susp. stuff along with tomei manifold, pretty damn quick for stock boost on a 28r!

car feels pretty damn good and the angle is hilarious, once again, thanks to MA-MOTORSPORTS!!!

...ls1 teardown and rebuild coming very soon

Def · 04-28-2009, 09:23 PM

So what's the width on the S13's wing? Just trying to get a sense for what it takes to fill out the available area beyond holding a tape measure up there.

Johny5 · 04-28-2009, 09:38 PM

the deck i'm trying on at this point in time is 1750mm wide d-drug

got the cluster all finished!

gonna wrap it up in suede and toss it in hopefully sometime this weekend!

Om1kron · 04-28-2009, 10:35 PM

stu I feel like you got to pick every good genetic trait on the perfect woman and the first time you fucked her turns out she had a bad vagina.

I wish you luck getting this piece of shit back together my man lol.

Z33dori · 04-28-2009, 11:23 PM

clear...... WTF?

onepuff · 04-28-2009, 11:49 PM

He said he's gonna wrap it in suede

Johny5 · 05-02-2009, 08:36 AM

finally finished

off to go pull the ls1, ta-ta!

ayuaddict · 05-02-2009, 01:44 PM

Damn, looks awesome! Definitely cooler than straight aluminum.

lflkajfj12123 · 05-02-2009, 06:30 PM

needs more viceroy.. velvet instead of seude

maybe add holders for wine and shrimp too

Johny5 · 05-07-2009, 01:31 PM

ok, good and bad. the good...

exedy is alive and kicking! looks new and surface material is 100%, my last one must've just been defective (thanks again brian 500hp zombie wilkerson for all of your help with that ordeal)

finally finished this ordeal, i love it, looks great! voltage works as well

the bad...

elongated pushrod path (possibly from the bent oem pushrod we pulled out of motor originally)

however, all the new manley pushrods were straight still

hg had a leak on just one cylinder, small amounts of coolant had gotten in with zero smoke from exhaust or milky oil/etc.

its the 2nd from left iirc

the cam is still nice and good, only super barely slight hazy normal valvetrain contact patch

the crank, haha, ohhh the crank.

rods/pistons/arp rod bolts/crank/all bearings, trash

the mains weren't BAD, probably just normal 70k wear plus a lot of redline at the end

this rod bearing melted on, it only had 1 run on it..ever

odd, haha

so much metal dripping down the cylinder walls

we suspect bearing material made its way into oil pump as well, via looking down in there haha

motor needs to be bored, needs new crank, all new bearings, new pistons, new rods, new oil pump, new main bolts

thats just in the bottom end, oh brother. time to bring her back to life

machien shop today hopefully!

Brian · 05-07-2009, 01:33 PM

i cant believe you fixed your motor on the track. and then had it ready for one more run!!

this thing is nuts in person! i need to drive to texas..

btw if you didnt remember. i was the guy with the black coupe. stockish looking. with the KA

Johny5 · 05-07-2009, 01:57 PM

of course i remember

it was very nice meeting you! (dug the car btw! nice driving!!)

HS13KLS · 05-12-2009, 07:45 PM

^

haha thanks man! i wish we couldve seen that car drive some more..

is t-russel and/or tcox on this forum?

i was goign to ship some vinyls out for you guys!

and not to get this off topic. but i got 6th out of 32 at my last event. haha i am just trying to be like you.

GSXRJJordan · 05-12-2009, 08:03 PM

Nutswingers aside, that motor is T>O>A>S>T ... toast.

Kinda depressing to see, especially because 70k isn't all that much on a non-high-compression street motor... and that's A LOT of material to find floating around everywhere.

Nice that you have the funds to rebuild it right though, can't wait to see some more vids.

Z33dori · 05-12-2009, 10:15 PM

Yeah, a C6 Z06 I saw at A&A in Oxnard (famous Vette shop, apparently) was 12.8:1, forged internals, big cam, full ti valvetrain, made 560whp @ 6800rpm IIRC. 540ft lbs.

Pump gas, N/A. But big $$$.

Johny5 · 05-13-2009, 04:28 PM

local lsx making 850ish wheel NA spinning to 8300rpm on pump. king of lsx

I guess you have dyno queens in TX too.

What're your plans with the motor? Stay N/A, go high rev? Boost, keep a meaty powerband? The people want to know.

Johny5 · 05-19-2009, 07:52 AM

no no, not a dyno queen. that car holds a lot of track records as well...unfortunately just 1/4 mile though :\

i was gonna wait on this but here we go...

ls1 comes back this week with fresh eagle h-beams, probe high compression pistons, arp mains, arp 7/16 rod bolts, another melling high pressure oil pump, MLS headgaskets, arp headbolts, all blueprinted and balanced for peace of mind.

for the time being, its gonna jsut be super reliable bottom end at 6800 rpm. when i can afford it...stage 4 drysump and 7500+ rpm.
