@Dustin do you have any pictures of the TSP harness they include with the turn key packages? Just curious to see if it is a built harness or a dressed up factory one.

I got more pictures, but there isn't much else to look at. They label it as a custom harness. I haven't look close enough at a GM factory harness to know.

I cannot wait to see where you take the car. Extremely interested.

Event?.....As in singular?........Trust me knowing Vorschlag there while be a campaign of events to take this car to the limit in multiple series, you will probably also see it on TV in the Optima battery sponsored series called the " Ultimate Street Car Challenge" stay tuned.......Just my two cents.https://www.optimabatteries.com/en-u...ative-schedule

Um...it's a series. And it's held at tracks all over the US. In the Texas Region there are nine events for 2017. We ran a 2011 S197 Mustang and set a lot of track records, a C4 Corvette, and now an E46 BMW 330i and our FRS. The first two have completed development. The BMW is about midway. The FRS has just started.

I am waiting to see what modifications need to be done to the front of the car to fit the wide tires. I know element tuning is running 305 slicks (mention of 325 in some other posts as well) and mentioned needing a bit of frame mods to allow full turning radius.

I want the rocket bunny kit to fit wide tires, but still on the fence whether I like the look or not. I may just go ahead and do it, but can't really go back.

It's that or get some 18x10 wheels made up to fit under stock body and run a 285/30 which is the same rolling diameter as stock tires.

Edit: Rocket Bunny or the Aimgain/StanceNation kit. Aimgain follows the stock lines better, and is rivet-less.

EAGLE5 · 01-13-2017, 01:36 PM

Aimgain. Rocket bunny is meh. Or custom.

This isn't an OEM GM Harness. It's been modified for its own fuses, relays, etc.

ILLSMOQ · 01-13-2017, 03:57 PM

I'd like to see more of that kit, looks pretty good in those pics.

Element tuning is running a 305 or 325 with a stock body?

The more I look at it, the more I start to love the kit. I can only find two cars that have the kit. The orange one I posted, and the StanceNation white car. Both stanced. Kit is rather wide though. 50mm front, 80mm rear.

Element Tuning is running them on a rocket bunny kit.
