While I'm not documenting Taz's transformation on NAM or Motoring Authority, I'd like to share it here. Too many know it alls, or people saying it can't be done on those public forums. So when it's all said and done, here's what I want to have done:
Engine Mods:
-Battle Tuning/DNA Stage 4 tune - Done (still needs to be dialed in...)
-JMTC e45hp hybrid turbo -DONE
-Gen 3 ported header - DONE
-NM Engineering CAI - DONE
-Helix FMIC - DONE
-Cold and hot boost tubes with noise maker deleted - DONE
-Alta mechanica DV -DONE (GFB DV+ diverter upgrade was always throwing a code... couldn't be explained)
-AR Designs 3”->2.5” catless downpipe - DONE
-VIP Custom 2.5” straight through exhaust - DONE
-HFS-4 water/meth system 80 meth / 20 water - DONE
-Forge/Samco coolent hose kit -DONE
-Sneed Speed oil cooler - DONE
-Saikou Michi dual OCC - DONE
-Ignition Projects Plasma Coils - DONE
-OS Giken STR Clutch - DONE
-OS Giken 1 way LSD -DONE
Suspension
-BSH engine mount - DONE
-Alta PSRS inserts - DONE
-Powerflex black series bushings - Done (didn't do rear top mounts, was told too solid will cause binding of rear strut)
-Vorslag camber plates - DONE
-M7 strut brace - DONE
-HVT custom 3-way adjustable coilovers with ACE - DONE
-WMW adjustable end links - DONE
-Helix upper and lower rear control arms - DONE
-Tarrett Sports rear sway bar - DONE
-TCE Performance front and rear custom brakes with Wilwood/Brembo setup - DONE
Wheels and tires:
-235/40/17 Starspec ZIIs - DONE
-F:275/35/15 R:225/45/15 Hoosier A6s - waiting on custom 15" wheels...and still waiting on custom wheels.
Other:
-Cobra Imola Profit seats on VAC brakets - DONE (with warnings )
-Scroth harnesses - DONE
-Craven Speed short throw kit - DONE
-PLX Wifi OBDII/iMFD with AFR,Boost,EGT, - DONE
-Innovate Oil Temp/Pressure gauge - DONE
-iPhone 4 with DashCommand, Harry’s Laptimer Pro, and fixed GoPro setup
-GP belly pan - DONE
-GP rear diffuser - DONE
-JCW fixed rear spoiler - DONE
-LithiumIon light weight battery - DONE
-LED fog/driving lights - DONE
Goals:
-2350-2450lbs in race trim
-280whp/310wtq
-Damn good looking car
I'll post pics as the ball gets rolling. Just doing test fittings and working out a wrenching schedule. I hope to starting tearing into Taz end of Feb, early March. First autocross is April 5th.
One result of this will be take off parts and gently used bolt-ons. I'll post those as I get them.
EDITED shows whats been done.
