I finished setting up my new "Scan Gauge" today. Now reading RPM, Engine oil temp, Engine water temp, and Automatic tranny fluid temp. Not bad for 170 bucks.

I just added a belly pan to my FRS, Nothing fancy, just a 3 by 4 foot sheet of .053 aluminum. Jetting tired of dragging my exhaust pipe joint over bumps. It starts where the vented transmission pan ends so should not interfere with engine or tranny cooling. Might even smooth out underside air flow a bit.

Look what I did today.

Lunatic · 01-06-2017, 12:14 PM

Been a while since I up dated my thread. I decided to go with the Edelbrock Supercharger kit and e-85 flex fuel kit. The car really loves e-85. This combination worked out to 323 hp at the wheels and lowered my 0 to 60 time to 4.9 seconds.

Lunatic · 01-06-2017, 12:20 PM

Next I mover my engine oil cooler and automatic tranny cooler out board behind the removed fog lights.

I also made a new splitter out of 3/8ths plywood. And made frame mounts so it's not attached to the body. That way if I go "Off Track" and dig dirt the splitter will break off and not distroy the body work. (ask Mike about this)

Because of more power I went with more tire. 255/40/17 Hancook RS3

My old cosmetic GTR look alike wing looked nice but didn't hold up on the track. Turn 8 at Willow Springs did it in.

So I bought a new APR GT 250 wing. But not liking the top trunk mounts I made my own Rocket Bunny copy mounts.

Lunatic · 01-06-2017, 12:46 PM

I like gauges which the FRS is very lacking in, so I made my own gauge cluster in place of the radio which I never use.

I also made a magnetic cell phone mount.

Just for fun
