damn Jeff- I wish I lived next to you... I'd be in your garage every other day...haha nice to see you're still at it. Great builds....

 

Loving every second of this thread. Goodluck on the rest of the wiring, loving the glass bead blast look

 

Can't wait to see that. I've seen the SRT SC GS run 12's, however no one really post results on their TT GS's. Good luck on the build.

 

Jeff, did you need to drill and tap the engine block to install the oem gte oil cooler on the na-t setup?

 

Jeff, is that one of your custom turbo manifold or did you purchase it from somewhere. PM me with the info and pricing if you don't want to share it.

 

or you just dont look.....

or were poking a jab like some people do on here aimed at him,its one of those two things.BTW a OLD video of jeff's car at the track is the 3rd post



as always jeff nice build....how are those seats coming along? did you actually pick up the gs400 yet?

 

Awesome build! Wish I had the resources and space you have to build my dream GS. Subscribed!

 

Jeff continues to win!!!

 

My GS300 will be at the track set to kill mode in the coming weeks. It's getting tore down now for a 800 RWHP set up. Shooting for the land of the 10's.

 

Lol, isn't it funny that these pig heavy cars need 800HP to cut 10s lol. I'm going to be taking this car to the track soon as well once the season starts up. Hoping to at least break into the 11s, 10s would be nice too heh. Aiming for around 700WHP or so with the Comp 6765 at around 30-35psi on c16.

 

Yea I know. How much weight did you save by swapping to ISF seats? I was riding in Darin's ISF just yesterday and was telling him how nice it would be to upgrade to those seats in my GS. Also where did you find them?

 

Updates 12/27/2011

Tasks completed:
- Modified the throttle body and welded on the wiggins clamp ferrule/ring.
- Got a little further on the wiring harness.

Cutting up a rare and hard to find Aristo VVTi throttle body. Oops!


Love this freakin' saw. Cuts so straight and perfect every single time. Then again, it is a $1400 saw lol.


This is where the wiggins clamp ring needs to go.


Stock throttle body is not as big of diameter as the ring I need to weld on.


Bored out and chamfered the hole to give a better flow into the throttle body.


Cut down the ring just a hair. The clearance I'm working with in the engine bay is extremely tight.


Welded the ring from the inside...was a freaking PITA! Anyways, after welding I smoothed out all the walls to ensure good flow.


Completed assembly, o-ring reinstalled.



TB put back together. This is about the extent of the purple going on the engine.

 

Looks beautiful, good to see you back in the game. Im curious to see this $1400 saw.

 

jeff your middle name should be dexter cause that is one hell of a laboratory u have there... sick... can't wait to see the GS4 go under the knife...

 

Awesome work. Very nice.
