looking good......damn it, i have to get out and work on mine, your catching me in a hurry.........you using a truck harness on it??

 

ya we are using a modified truck harness it has all the un neccesary stuff removed along with the connectors for the drive by cable stuff ..all the stuff to do it came from current performance and im hoping it will work well it will be on a sd 2 bar tune from hp tuners

 

very cool build. i would love to have an lsx powered coupe

 

How bad?

 

shoot me a pm

 

Heres a few small updated pictures from the past couple days


Breather tank all mounted ... the drain is easily accesible through the inner fender



Our ubber trick gm power center -well i think it looks trick anyways



Some pictures of the harness all finished up and the vette covers just set on to see how they look , they still need to be trimmed to clear the fuel line etc ,but i bet you cant see the harness except where it enters the firewall and where the two pig tails are hanging for the o2 sensors:






And one of the fuel cell set up all finished up... gonna still add another vent line to the passenger side

 

Damn, looking good. Should be running real soon!

 

thanks alot ... if i worked as fast as you it woulda ran long ago LOL

 

hey, looking good, wish i was rich like you guys and could finish mine, lol......just got my taxes in for my house last week, dear god, dont look like mine will be running this year.


no offense, but the only thing i see under the hood that i dont like is the upper coolant hose. need to put a real hose on it instead of the flex one...just my opinion though. car is coming together nice though.

 

ya i am planning to change that hose just a tough one to find in a nice pre formed hose

 

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!! the car is running and running great on only 10 lbs and pump gas very soft tune , super soft launch the slip looked like this :

60 ft - 1.85
1/8 mile et - 7.3
1/8 mile mph - 103
1/4 mile et - 11.24
1/4 mile mph - 129.5










More coming soon including street trim 10 second et's

 

Congrats on getting it going. Do you have any dyno #s yet? What size downpipe did you use, and how did you route it? I am almost finished with mine, and it looks alot like yours, except I ran my dp over the engine. I wanted to use a 3.5 or 4 but could not find the room, so I am just using 3. Here's a couple of pics of mine.

damn that puts mine to shame ....... im also using a 3" downpipe only mine goes straight across behind the rad and dumps in front of the drivers front tire

 

Here are a few more short videos low quality but sound cool

Car has ran 11.0 @134mph on only 11-12 psi driven 6 hours to track raced then driven 6 home!!! this winter calls for a trans brake and two step to get the car out of the hole and make use of the power its making


Here is some totally bad *** pictures of my scrap rolling down the highway on the way to the track ....... Street car baby







Some burnout action from the track



And my favorite one ..... Just seems SOO fitting

 

sweet project. i am no suspension expert but it looks to me like your prety high in the back i bet your rear geometry is not ideal. i know your 60's isn't great, is that due to waiting for boost or loss of traction? tbrake and a 2 step and that thing will be low 10's. turn it up and go well into the 9's.

 

No more RX7? WTF?

Just kidin'! Looks awesome! Post some info over at v8rx7, we miss ya.

did you end up keeping the truck oil pan?

 

Nice!

 

Parish ya the car sits high but its not an issue of traction more of it building boost ..... i think i just broke the trans pretty good so car might be done for the year now, jesse after the site switched i lost intrest but i will have to come post what ive been up to, Yes i do still use the truck pan with no issues
