Proof that I blow thru more cars than Cam...

[JeffreyCole]

Truth.


I got my wheels for $240 off craigslist with tires. Winning. lol



I do love some dish.
Got you beat.

Paid 40 bucks for mine. [emoji2]

Vivid Racing.

[Seer]

Howdy industries is direct with forgestar. Took me four weeks

[thedak]

Those cute little 10" wheels must be easier to come by.

[Seer]

If you're referring to me? I'm not running 10" wide. I'm running 11 in the rear. In a CF10 design.

What I've learned with forgestar after owning five different sets of wheels from them. Find a vendor who has direct access to their inventory and you'll get your wheels built faster.

[thedak]

I'll never buy another set of anything from them. Forgestar is the one that lied to me then strung me along.

It wasn't Vivids fault. At this point I call Forgestar about every 3-4 days and hassle them.

Vivid also told me I could still cancel the entire order, they would refund me or allow me to get another set of something with a discount.

If you just guess on what blanks you have and tell me some BS then I'm out. F that company anyway.

Shame too cause I buy a lot of shit and always come back if taken care of.

I tried to save a couple bucks and in the end I have Bullshit wheels I had to wait forever for.

Couple places have Volk G25, TE37s and Advan GTs in stock right now and can have them by Monday afternoon.

I may just order what I wanted and sell these Fin' F14s next Fall when I finally get them.

Thats not the first time I've heard this. A lot of vendors who sell forgestar cannot see what blanks are available. I've only seen a small handful of vendors who can. My first go round with forgestar was similar to yours. My second, was like a third of the time, since I went with Howey Industries. I don't know the price difference of those other wheels, but it sounds like they might be a better way.

[thedak]

At this point I'll be on all seasons again for the rental and a SCCA track day.

Gots to love it.

GTR is 5x114.3 right? What offsets?

[thedak]

I do appreciate your insight with this situation.

[thedak]

GTR is 5x114.3 right? What offsets?


Yes

Front - 20x9.5" - Deep Concave - 31mm

Rear - 20x12" - Super Deep Concave - 25mm

[Seer]

Yes

Front - 20x9.5" - Deep Concave - 31mm

Rear - 20x12" - Super Deep Concave - 25mm
Not sure if it would work, I am running 20x11 at around +56mm in the rear. But I do have a set of NT555R in 305/35/20 on the back. Could've ran those at the rental. I don't have stronger axles in so I'm not drag racing. I just daily drive that NT555R drag radial to keep some traction.

[thedak]

I'm so fed up I may just scrap the whole wheel thing until Winter.

[zxgto06]

Matt, when your wheels do come in who were you going to get to mount the tires?

seems like every tire shop I go to I'm a nervous wreck about them messing up one of my wheels.

[Seer]

I can tell you Jeff at first try has a lot of experience with forgestar. Reason I say this is forgestar had these outter spokes that protrude around the lip. Need to be super careful.

[thedak]

Matt, when your wheels do come in who were you going to get to mount the tires?

Use the guy who does our state car tires.

Never head of them, but I live close to them. I'm in South Fayette.

[TooFast98Cobra]

Look into them . Not the cheapest but IMO the best and your wheels weren't cheap so mounting tires on them isn't either . Close to me also . I'm in venetia.

I have a set of HKS GTX33s Turbos, Cast Manifolds, Tial wastegates, Etc... sitting in my garage.

I was going to attempt to get one early as technically I'm supposed to wait till Sept.

Went on a 30 mile back lumpy road ride to shake down the suspension.

Settled in at 28.25" all the way around to the tops of the wheel arches.

100% happy. Rides much much better with the Non-RunFlats and softer rate springs.

I did up the air pressure to 34psi to give the tires a more precise feeling.

Traction seems much better as well. I didn't launch the car though so we shall see.

I didn't think there was much to be had with a BL intake mani and stock turbos? It might actually hurt your power curve. Looks pretty tho. :)

If you're looking into stock manifold turbos you know I have to suggest you look at Buschur's stuff/Xona rotor.

Just stop and enjoy FBO on E.... Will make sure to quote this as "I told you so" for future reference.

BL is worth 20/20 on a stock turbo set up. Vivid did a back to back dyno test.

Not good gain for the cash. It's just another piece of the puzzle to me.

Slowly get the parts I need. Too much coin to do all at once.

Xona stuff does look killer. This HKS Kit I have dibs on also may be the way I go.

I'm guessing 637.4whp

I'm going to guess 622.7.

[thedak]

622 ?.......

ewwww

[u1arunit]

Better be 850+ or time to start over!

F Forgestar

[JeffreyCole]

622 ?.......

ewwww

I have no idea what is actually done to the car or what it should make.

So in the end I am totally full of shit.

[sutyak]

I guess 175whp at 2600 RPM.

[MrAudia]

It depends on what dyno you will use. Mustang Dyno (factory calibration) Under 600 WHP. Dynojet - over 700 WHP

[ERR0RMACR0]

How much boost are you going to run?

[thedak]

Boost should actually decrease a tad with this manifold.

Hoping Ben will be able to add a tad more timing to the tune.

I'm right at E84 consistently at Washington Speedway.

Def interested in the results.

Intake is huge...

Throttle Bodies reversed and flipped to the opposite side.

All new EVAP and Vacuum lines were needed as well.

3" upper intake pipes will need to be trimmed and fitted next.

[MrAudia]

Drooooooool!! So nice! Please use my slicks so you can get a great 60' and into the 9's on FBO

[Dan B.]

I actually saw a GTR on the racetrack tonight. There was at least one or two others sitting around looking pretty but were nowhere near the actual track surface.

[thedak]

I DD mine to work and Dunkin Donut runs as fast as possible.

[Tom]

Too bad you can't use it for work.

I showed this pic to Wifey and said, "Now, I have never put car parts on the kitchen counter. Once on the dining room table, maybe, but not the kitchen counter".

Her reply... "That's foul". :lmao:

It's a GTR. Those aren't parts. Those are decorations. They deserve to be on the counter.

Bank Balance, Idle Re-Learn and its running nicely...

Try to get some logs here this evening before dark.

27063

[thedak]

STFTs are adding 10-15% more fuel depending on the bank.

Emailed Ben the logs and awaiting a new tune.

It hunted for idle on hot and cold start up as well.

[MrAudia]

That's pretty typical after you increase the volume of you IM like that. Good luck!!

[PaxtonShelby]

So dang badass!

Looks awesome man

[thedak]

Tuning has def been a pain with this thing.

On Version 4 already trying to get this thing dialed in.

I hate having to go and log on the street (in Mexico). Real pain to find somewhere safe.

[thedak]

I agree, total pain.

I go to I-576 Turnpike as there is little to no traffic on it at times.

[Dan B.]

It's awesome living away from people.

[thedak]

27069

[thedak]

Ben has it dialed in nicely.

No real knock. Got a -1 for about 300 rpm. It is hot as F out and spiking at 1.45 Bar at 3000rpm in 3rd gear.

STFTs are within 7-8%. Drives really really good. Think the best it ever has. Even better than stock.

Did a clutch relearn. Cold and hot start up are much better.

Roll with this for a while and see if the car can get the STFTs close to 100 with some mixed driving.

Time to park it till Fall. Too hot out for garage queens. See you at the Hangar Party and or Drone Flying Seminars.

I think you got some grease on your camera lense!

Thedak,
I just found out how small this world is. I was chatting with your father in law at the beaver car show, I haven't seen him in a while. Great guy! It took me a little bit to put two and two together when he was talking about the GTR then we just started laughing. I told him I busted your balls about not having the car at the rental and your response about my car. He told me to give you a hard time so you stop messing with the car and enjoy it. LOL I am sure we will meet in person sooner or later,I would love to check out your car. We seem to know a bunch of the same people. My wife and I were hanging out with Bruce, Mickey, Kevin, Larry (I am sure I forgot some one) when he stopped by.

I've known all those dudes for a long time.

Myrtle Trips, Cruises, Car Shows, Xmas Parties, Etc.....



GTR is down for the Summer.

Too hot out

[MrAudia]

What?! It's not too hot out. It's going to be in the 70's. Bring that car to the shootout, throw my slicks on it and let her eat!

[thedak]

Aint looking good with work.

I wanted to get out there for the Open House, spend the night and watch a little on Sat.

[SK360]
