Wow hadnt heard about this issue... thanks for the heads up.

There are 4 other cars that I know of that have had this issue. Because of that I've been keeping a close eye on it, sure enough hair line cracks. Other than that problem it handles and rides nice.

Tony,
I enjoyed talking with you at the local Friday night car show. The car looks better in person then the pics - top notch all the way around.

It is very rare that I see one done right in my opinion - fit and finish, top quality parts, attention to detail, etc.

I hope mine comes out close to that nice. Thanks for sharing some of the details about the build. Now I have to get back on mine...

The HP #s are down, I think the inlet to the blower is restrictive. Will know soon.

Simply badass! Black, stock looking (body anyway) 69 z.....cant go wrong there!

I might have missed it, but what kind of power did you end up with at the wheels?

Edit, just saw the video. Got goosebumps hearing that wind up. Awesome!
