Really sweet ride! It gives a throwback vibe to the original F&F Eclipse!

James has the log from this past weekend

it depends on what boost you're targeting. it hits 10psi by around 4500rpm. higher boost targets take a bit longer, lower boost targets reach peak a bit sooner of course.

Note that this only tells 1/3 of the story though. Driving around the 35r is as responsive (or more so) than a 60-trim.

Haven't posted in a while..

New Varis bumper is wrapped and installed. Fitment was a little rough but the sledge hammer made it easy. Had some issues with the wrap on one of the side skirts, so no photos yet. Front bumper is getting gelcoat blacked in the grill area before I wrap that, maybe 1-2 weeks.

Flex Fuel has been installed as well, dyno numbers soonish.

May need more parts, bigger fuel pump ( @FullBlown ) and aftermarket crash bar for the rear (varis kit doesnt fit with stock rear crash bar fyi)

amazing ! I have only seen your car once in Orlando

Ironsquid · 08-20-2014, 04:22 PM

Oh forgot about the brembo brake install. We used '11 subie brembos, painted them black, applied kiwi green brembo vinyl and cleared over top. DBA 5k rotors in front, 4k in rear. SS stoptech lines, dot600 fluid. Also new RS3's

Ironsquid · 08-20-2014, 04:28 PM

Dont have any pics of the new rear suspension.

Long story short we had fitment issues with our wheel offset and 265 wide tires. The only option we had in order to keep the wheel/tire combo was lots of negative camber up top, and then correct the camber on the bottom. We also had wheel hop issues last track event as well so we put in some adjustable trailing arms. We also bought adjustable toe arms in the rear as well.

We picked up the rear diff brace and mount brace kit also for some stiffness.

Ran a best of 12.5 @ 121mph

street tires, 2.2 60'

The track was pretty well prepped, one of the 86s had already broken an axle, so I was afraid to launch any faster than 2.2

I was more interested in the mph
