The Turboyata goes tracking!

Wooters!
Gauge install complete.
My personal mechanic Ahmet doing his thing.

I have a stock center surround/bezel coming from Stateside...we're going to make a FG copy and then redo the install for a cleaner, meaner, yet more visually appealing look.
The A/F gauge is freaking useless...except for the fact that it has the Voltimeter built in...WB June or July.

ew @ cheap gauges

Money well spent..because they are cheap & work great (except for the A/F one)

I mean...it works..it's just not going to do crap for the tuning though.

I <3 my prosport gauges.

boost, oil pressure, and EGT.

the egt gauge started wigging out on me though.. but I'm gonna go ahead and assume that it's all my fault (ziptied wires rubbing and shorting out or something).

Me too....I dig 'em...with the top down...the oooh's & ahhhh's own....girls seem to dig them too...because they "are ok gzel" (pr: chock goo-zell = very beautiful/pretty). (godown)

I ensured that my line was not half-assed. We ran the wire through the hole left by the cruise control delete.

FINALLY...update time.

Painting time.
The car has been shaved and sanded down. The paint is not quite spicy..but extremely close & gorgeous in the sunlight...as seen by the sample shown below. Those "cloudy" spots...are clouds.
The car should be out of the shop on Saturday.
Just remember...this is a free paint job...3-stage. They also made a fiberglass body of the car...lol...as shown below....crazy.

What's with the fiberglass body? Very interesting....

 

[JDM-P5]

They are building a racer & a show car...it's interesting what these guys can do.
The show car steered etc. show stuff.
the racer...they won't disclose any info just yet.
I told them I want a hood & trunk...and fenders....and a front spoiler.

 

[aMaff]

The hood's already light as hell. Aftermarket CF hoods are heavier than the stock aluminum one.

I know that.
but a FG one just for the track use...lightweight....but probably not very safe..haha

 

[aMaff]

[JDM-P5]
