Went to a PDR (painless dent removal) day this weekend down at Zivman's farm to get some dents taken out of the STi before she goes to the shop for the build. Thought ide post a few pics. The 350Z is Aaron's car with the APS twin turbo kit, puts down 450/480 :eek4: :yumyum: :eek3: I just decided to make this my project thread also Ill be updating it with pics through out the next month. Stay tuned! EDIT 5/15/06 My final #'s.
The day turned out awesome. A lot of cars got worked on, we had a little fun with a few car; my car and a 3KGT on the street, and Matt's RS on the back roads, Erik got his car to the shop, and best of all, nobody got hurt VIDS!!! RIGHT CLICK > SAVE TARGET AS Pass 3 VR4 Wish we would have got a vid of Matt ripping it up his RS.
I'm not going to lie... the vids were a little disapointing considering the caliber of cars that were in attendance. :hsugh:
Hey how did the PDR come out?? i have two dents on my drivers side both about 1-2 inches. How successfull are these? I am interested in getting this done.
Came out great! He did a great job, Matt even brought all three of his cars down to get done. Im going to get the guys contact info and see if I can stop down where he works, I forgot to get one pulled
Y y0u stealinz my turboZ! heheh .....you know..I might just up from 30R to 35R as well....(in my mind I mean...not that I have the infamous 30R yet....)
Oh snap! Just got some more pictures Uh Oh's Stock clutch looks alittle....burnt:hsugh: Look's like were missing something:eek3: Tranny Ready to go under the knife!
I spoke with Erik today and it seems he is using the forged pistons in hopes that they don't melt, but instead shoot through the headcovers and out the side of the fenderwells, clear of the car so no one inside gets injured. It is more of a personal safety measure than an engine longevity thing. Also, apparently, that turbo isn't going into the car at all...well maybe it will on long trips...he bought it for sex.
That is going to be one fast sweet ride, When it is done I would like a ride in it if that is cool with you!!
LOL @ Jason Erik, I dont plan on coming close to what Rich has got, he should hit 500's + with all the work he is doing. I wish though 02blu, Anytime after the dyno day works for me!
With all that additional power, what if any are you doing to keep it on the ground? Glue, Magnets! LOL Awsome pictures, keep it coming.
Actually, from what I've been hearing, he is going to get his girl pregnant again so she can weigh the car down properly.
Everything looks good buddy. I saw yur turbo at Matt's yesterday...its a bohemiath. Yur takin me for a ride in that thing when yur done cuz I'll be t3h sl0w!! O yeah, u can stop being emo now, I posted in t3h yu0r picture gallery!
Dream, wasn't your car in service to be upgraded because you wanted to or was it because you had to? :bowdown: Those pistons don't look too well.
