Thanks for the kinds words of you guys!
Last year I bought a American coupe body that was used as a 700 bhp racecar in the Dutch time attack series. It had a 22b kit on, full weld rollcage, tubed front end, lexan windows en some funky f1 style mirrors.
The owner of the company that raced the car texted me if I was interested, so I went down and bought the shell and the brakes of the car.
At the time I already drove a red impreza gtt and it would be more cost effective to use it as a donor car. So after a lot of dicussions with angry people it was giving up to a good cause.
I started the build on the first of november last year. I took the impreza turbo apart and build everything on the freshly painted coupe shell. Everything that came of the turbo was checked and bought new if nessesery. And I had made a lot of modifications during the build like a custom fuel tank, flocked dash, hydraulic hand brake, race seats, ect. The build was completed mid april.
some specs of the car:
- original LHD shell
- 22b kit
- legacy b4 rsk engine
- vf34 turbo
- 3 inch exhaust
- mapped at 1.3bar 320bhp/400nm
- k-sport shocks
- k-sport 8 pot and 4pot with 356mm discs
- 9j rota g-force rims with 245 federal semi slicks
- custom flocked dash
- defi gauges
- ltec hydraulic hand brake
- qsp circuit bucket seats
- custom 50L fuel tank
Now I'm saving some money to get more power in the car. It's now running 320bhp, but I want to go to 450-500. Unfortunately I didn't had the budget to do everything at the same time. I was 22 years old at the time and came straight of college.
Maybe I can make a topic in the project section if people are interesed.
