What have you done to your car today?

[rskikn]

fitted new fmic and uped the piping to 3inch with a new 50mm bov.. got out the angle grinder and shaved the bumper back sum more to get the cooler to fit behind it with out having a whooping great hole in th middle o the bumper (im a big fan of the factory stealth look) which was a mission on its own as the coolers 600x300x110..

threw a carbon fibre strut brace in today ;D

after selling off my old alloy strut bar and getn this sti one i realised how light they are when you compare them....

carbon fibre one was half the weight of my old alloy one

/quote]

WRXONP - evidence, as per previous discussion..?

can only get evidence if al is willing to take my old strut brace of his car and weight it as its no longer in my possesion......

but i cant tell you that the carbon fibre one was about half the weight of my old alloy one

as for you WRXONP....you must be on crack if you think that FHI's aerospace division cant make a lighter and better strut bar than them cheap chineese ones out there......SNAP! :D :D

Yes I can do that at some stage, thu or fri if I remember. I have smokn4's old alloy brace and my carbonfibre brace. Need to remove cf brace from sti and weigh it. 15 min job, but getting a round to it may take longer

STI carbon fibre: 1.500kg

Other nice pink and alloy: 2.245kg

Weight difference: 0.995kg on a 1300kg car = SFA

but it looks way pimper right?

[aim]

having CF in your car is like having a prince albert. Pimp, but only when you pop the hood.

[nickch]

I still regard Cusco stuff as top of the line.

So seeing blue and chrome in your engine would have a larger impact on me than the CF STi one.

gt3071r?? or 76? its got a 98 sti gear box and rear diff (4:44) and sum red line shock proof gear oil.. seams to be holding up ok so far was gonna go 6 speed but to much work u basicly gotta put all the running gear under it be cheaper just to get a v7 lol.. yea ill take sum pics of the dyno sheets one of thems got my old plate on it tho slitha.. tune wasnt finished when kent pulled it off the dyno tho cos the pump maxed out..

[funkytown]

oh true true! yer i only have a 3071r, is putting out 278 atw currently and pulls like a porno star.. will do more it has some more boost wound into it. Definitely helps having the 6speed behind it though.

/cut the rest of what i was saying. its OT. I will pm you for some chit chat.
