i might leave it like this as i dont think it will affect the handling at all, may even improve it give me a higher perspective of the track. you know im right

 

getting there now mate looking good

 

could bring a whole new perspective...SUV TA Stylee

car is looking really good, look forward to seeing some better pics though

 

well they do say they are 4wd im just going back to its roots, its had a full respray inside and out and the fit and finish is so good, just wish people could see it in the flesh, its immense, and as kev said its a shame its going on track

 

i cant believe you forgot your camera Mat
i think you are trying to keep a lid on the finished product till TA starts

 

Thats monsterous

 

dont think its going to be done before round 1 anyway mate, to be honest it will be pretty close to round 1 before i even see it completed, nearly there now though

 

i like that mate, monsterous

 

ask Kev to mail you some pics

 

believe me ive tried, their internet is pretty slow so no one is ever up for sending them over, im off up again on the weekend to make some big front winglets so ill take some better pics then ill put it on a ramp aswell to get underside properly.

 

coolio, look forward to seeing them mate

 

i cant say too much but there is another hawkeye rolling out of the clinic that is so humungously wide it makes mine look standard
oh man its absolutely criminal, got monster power to match when its done mine becomes the baby, with the fat boy getting ever closer to re-emerging for 2010 will have one of the craziest engine setps for a scoob i know of, dont know if its been done before but its intended to be running so much power it will make your eyes water again i cant say too much but its all very exciting.

 

^^sounds interesting...I guess it must be a new TA car

 

mite be, mite be for summin else
the owner will start a thread soon but were talking like 295's all round no joke
fat boy is t/a and really hope it to be doing a few o.h.w rounds, hasnt been run for such a long time now

 

OMG...295 all round.

Must be really FAT!!!

 

285s to be exact

 

IS that owner knowledge?

 

Having just read your last post in your old project thread I wonder if your new thread is going to be hawkeye shaped

 

finally kev your online i just coulnt believe it 285's all round my whole **** fits on the arch extesions, it will be a good seat to pose on when you win
you gotta put just one teaser pic up like i did, go on mate get em drooling

 

Yes

Yes

They're to put cups of tea on while working on it, no other purpose

 

coolio, look forward to seeing it

...which class you in this year Kev?

 

None yet! Just weighing up a few options, all depends on how the build goes over the next few months, not a big fan of doing my testing in public but it might end up turning it's first wheel at it's first event, far from ideal!

Now, back to Mat's build

 

Cheers Kev...best of luck with whichever way you decide to go

Back on topic; where are these pics Matt?!

 

fair play kev.
pics on weekend when i drive up again

 

since we began the build i have been trying to get a set of voltex giant cannards for the cyber bumper. the smaller ones are ok but the larger ones are preferable. so after contacting a few places in the usa and trying to speak with voltex directly still no joy, it looked like i would have to make some up myself or try and modify the evo ones
after trawling the net one night i came across vivid racing usa, i then noticed they had a uk office, down the road in gloucester, so i gave them a call and spoke to a very nice chap darren moseley, i e-mailed pics and he said he would speak with the usa office as they stocked some voltex parts, any way today only two days after my initial enquiry i had a phone call back, voltex did not release any of the cyber subaru parts at all outside japan, only the street parts were sold outside japan, but they have contacted voltex direct and they have secured me a set, and we came to an agreement if i put two a4 size stickers on the car they will pay the shipping and the import tax which will be minimal due to size and weight and they will be here in 14 days so i now have these
http://

i can also import the bonnet but that is expensive, trying desperately for weeks to find some bonnet vents that big but no-where seems to stock or make anything like it? can anyone help carbon bonnet boot and doors will be on the 2011 list but this year i just need some bonnet vents like these
http://

 

do any companies make full proper splitters for the subaru, i have been looking for one for ages, if you own an evo your spoilt for choice, all you have for the scoob are flat pieces of carbon sheet which my nan could make, looking to bolt it to the chassis not bumper

this is for an evo unfortunately, woner how much modding to make it fit

 

Start with a flat ply splitter for now, you don't have the luxury of developing the car 100% before the season starts. Unless you're doing something to manage the airflow elsewhere on the car, a fancy splitter with diffusers to the front arches isn't going to do a great deal more than a simple splitter.

 

yeah probably sensible an off would ruin that a treat id imagine, if it was an item i could get hold of with ease it would seem more appealing, my local travis perkins howere is open 7 days a week
the kit has been constructed with huge front side vents for exactly that reason if you have a look a couple of pages bk its als got a rear diffuser fitted now with flat panels underneath

 

Didnt see a rear diffuser.

 

the diffuser has 3 centre fins been fitted this week and the two outer fins have been propoperly finished and fitted now fins are carbon floor and diffuser body are alloy,this joins to a flat floor section i tried to take some pics but camera phone is crap ill get the completed diffuser and underbody flat floor pics next week

two weeks ago BEING MOCKED UP
http://



last week fins templates removed and made in carbon so not fitted in pics
