Any one see the K&N ST G35 in Import Tuner Mag. ? They have Custom plenum made for it . They say it flows with in 1cmf in all cyl. They made it for the Time attack . They stripped the chit out of it and have the Wt. down to 2800lb's .
The plenum has the TB on the passenger side . The turbo is on the driver side , a little furter back than Turbo-N has thiers , think its a big turbo also .

 

No, haven't seen it, but sounds interesting. You have any pics you can post?

 

I'll see if I can scan it and have it turn out

 

Pics plz.

 

best I can do . The Turbo wasnt as far back as I thought

 

i read that while sitting in the airport. pretty bad ***.

big XS Engineering turbo IIRC, T67 maybe or something like that, custom one-off manifold. they said it was only good for 3-4 runs tho. still a very nice ride.

 

yeh...probably over heating and or head lift ,Said it had 650whp

 

Is this the same car?

 

yep...same car

 

my car 2900 street daily driving weight. these cars are easy to take weight out of. race weight NA is about 2820..


edit, mine is a Z though. thats nice for a G

 

howd you do that? drop the weight i mean. Race weight usually includes a full tank of gas.

 

Stripping the interior and replacing body panels with corbon fiber . Lighter wheels ,

 

I read that article. Cool car, but all that money and it still will only last 3-4 laps at a time? IMO, there are much cooler cars out there. I still don't think it will be a match for the XS Skyline, Mullerized EVO, Works EVO, Sun Cyber EVO, for the overall title. Should do well in the RWD class though. I guess we will have to wait and see.

 

I would think they are having the head lift and over heating problem . Thats why it only lasts 3 or 4 laps

 

From what I remember of the article, its the way they mounted cooling system because of the custom F/I setup. I seem to remember them using a small radiator mounted in a strage position, but I don't have the mag in front of me to confirm that. I think they have a smaller fuel cell as well.

 

yeah...smaller radiator mounted facing up , I think

 

That car looks like its more show than go honestly. HKS Time attack evo would rip it a new 1. But then again all the super fast track cars now a days are AWD (damnit).
