totally random find, and what a find it is.

BWAHA!!!!!!

Attack? Huh? Gixxer how the hell do you fine shit like this? You have way to much time on your hands. Pretty funny though.

CRAIG

yeah i dunno, i call it a useless gift ;)

i just remember jet talking about his "secret lightweight roadster thing" all he said was that it was very close to a lotus elise.

if you read the thread jet then says booo to the attack, and says he's gonna go with this
http://www.factoryfive.com/table/ffr...TM/GTMkit.html

make up your mind foo!! ;)

That GTM car is pretty sweet. I'd love to see that with high horsepower, now your onto somthing...

I knew what JET was going for a while ago... Notice his avatar? Notice his long discussions on mnracing.org about the VQ35? Oh yessssssss....

Yeah, it is no real secret. I just didn't want it spread everywhere in case I changed my mind, like I did. I am pretty set on the GTM Mulsanne now. Kits won't be readily available until 2006 which should be about right for me having the $20k to buy the kit. Then add in $10k for a donor car and $8k for a built tranny. Ouch! Then there is the turbo stuff, stand alone, etc. It will definately be an ongoing project.

Really, how come none of us have ever seen this car?

I read that too and couldn't help but chuckle. Internet rocks b/c you have zero accountability!

what is an Attack. is that a kit car? how much is the Kit it looks fucking sweet!!!!

Yea I saw that quote too about the 650. Didnt your car die on the dyno and not put down more than 450 last year? So is you car back up and running or are those "specs" from last year?

LOL, nice find gixxer!

That is funny. Some day I will go through my bookmarks and find all the old newbe posts I used to find for the amazing Niterydr, some of those are good reading as well ;)

My car should be close to that in weight (maybe high 2700's) and I better have at least 600 whp (once it gets back together). I said that it wasn't on the dyno with the new setup. It isn't like I said that I dyno'd it already and got that.

i wish you guys hadnt posted that link. ive been sitting here for a few hours reading about it. looks incredible. hope theres still this kinda shit around when i hit my midlife crisis

LOL,

"Insert foot in mouth"

but then again, he said ~ and said it didn't hit the dyno, as well as aproximate.. so no ripping is necessary i guess..

-E

Oh no, commence with the ripping ;) We take great fun in ripping each other apart! Besides, it is pretty well known by now that you have to have pretty thick skin to hang with this group. Sallies usually don't last very long which makes me wonder how your still here E.

I was just joking.

lol. This thread rocks!

Good, it is hard to tell sarcasm on the internet. That is why there is smilies! :D

I guess I better make 100% sure I get over 600whp next year!

JET- what will you be using for a tranny? Over 600whp won't do much good if the drivetrain won't hold it. I don't remember who it was, but Brian told me that someone with alot of power was always breaking shit at Rock Falls. Maybe it was Shane. I don't remember all your names just a few that Brian talked about. When i used to have my GST i always dream of turning the engine so it was parallel to the rest of the car like a Supra or Skyline. I heard of guys that were working on it but then never heard from them thereafter. Our shop definately has the means to making such a car but i don't want my car down for a year and further don't feel like turing it into an all out drag car. If i can get 450whp out of mine and she holds i'll be happy. Anyway, just wondering what you plan on using for a tranny.

I have a fully built Shep tranny. My car is also pretty light, so that relieves a lot of stress on the drivetrain. I have decided to make my DSM more of a fast daily driver and start saving for my GTM. I am hoping for a daily driver that puts down 500whp on pump and runs 10's (on race gas).

450 whp is pretty easy, just a 50 tim and a stock motor. Of course you need the supporting mods, 2g MAF (easiest), SAFC, injectors, FMIC and exhaust.

Dont make me confuse you again old man!!!! Next time i come over i'll bring you a cane so you can get around the shop instead of sit there in front of the pc and try to be a smartass!!!

Brian is the king of breaking trannies.

I wouldn't have been confused if you hadn't of thrown that Bosnian logic at me. :)

Not sure how many trannies Brian broke but i completely broke 3 on my GST. I sold it and a couple weeks later the guy called me up saying the tranny was out of it. So i guess i broke 3 1/2 so to say.

I actually met Brian when i bought a tranny from him last summer. I ended up blowing that tranny out. He had given me enough other parts to build another one but that is the one that blew out for the guy that bought my car. As much as i thought i'd never get rid of my GST, i don't miss it one bit. Ain't nothing like stepping up to the plate with AWD! Was nice on the highway but at the track it sucked.

I went though 7 or 8 transmissions this year.
joe

What the f*ck are you guys doing?! If i Had broken one tranny in my life it would be nothing but BUILT trannys from there on out. I havn't broken one yet but I am still going built.

Well, Joe can't drive :D He did get better towards the end, but he liked to do stupid stuff when he first got his AWD. I think it was only 4 trannies or so though.

i'm with you on that one. i broke my first tranny this fall, and in goes the $1000 LSD. hopefully that will last a year.

No kidding I'm with these guys. I replaced a perfectly good stock tranny with an even better built-tranny. Its not that had to keep everything in one piece.

Re: hey jet........BUSTED!!!!!
 

When i broke my 3 GST trannies, it was never the Diff that broke. It was always the output shaft and the top of the 1st/2nd gear shaft. Has anyone ever had to take apart a 'built' tranny to see what was actually done in it? As far as i know, there is no company that makes aftermarket hard gears for these trannies. I know TRE does a process of shot-peening to harden stuff. I'm just wondering what they're actually doint to them to make them stronger. When i built mine, i always did it by the book with the endplays and preloads on the bearings. What usually killed my tranny was wheel hop though. It didn't break right at the time of wheel hop but wasn't long after. I had all the motor mount mods, etc.. and still couldn't prevent it. I don't think any tranny is built to withstand wheelhop.

Re: hey jet........BUSTED!!!!!
 

anyone know if a 4g63 can fit in these K1 Attacks? i know they have the option of having a H22 motor, but who really wants a car that looks that good with a honda motor.

Re: hey jet........BUSTED!!!!!
 

1) The H22 is a pretty cool engine, has some decent torque for being a Honda. 2) Yes, a 4G63 will fit. 3) Life does exist beyond the "DSM"

In a car so light and small, a high-revving and very responsive engine would probably be more beneficial to one with a load of torque.

Re: hey jet........BUSTED!!!!!
 

Dre is looking at putting a 4g63 into one. I had checked it out and one would definately fit in there. They put a ford V6 in them over in Europe. I was looking at putting a VQ35/40 in one. Should be great power and it is an aluminum block (maxima or altima setup).

Re: hey jet........BUSTED!!!!!
 

tom, just go read the attack forums, they have covered it all engine wise

Re: hey jet........BUSTED!!!!!
 

I still know where you can get the alluminum 8 from the infinity Q45 pretty cheap. (like 750) Wouldn't that be similar? Comes with the nifty 90MM TB as well;)

Re: hey jet........BUSTED!!!!!
 

The 1UZFE or 2 or 3UZFE (v8's) from the Lexus' would be a good motor also and they're cheaper than the Q45 engine (at least the 1UZFE is)

Re: hey jet........BUSTED!!!!!
 

I saw that too, it's linked through a NABR thread. I didn't post anything because I'm actually a *nice* guy. (I'd post a smilie, but I don't see an option for it.)

Re: hey jet........BUSTED!!!!!
 

Yeah after i posted that i saw the post on attackforums, I wish i had good credit because that would be a fun project except for waiting a year and a half just to get the parts. Why do they keep saying you need a doner car, I understand for the engine but why wouldnt they send all the parts?
that would be an awesome car to convert to AWD, someone might be able to beat shanes time with a t-28, lol.

Re: hey jet........BUSTED!!!!!
 

The donor car is to keep the kit cost down. They use a lot of stuff from the accord, rear suspension, guages, engine, wiring harness, etc. They actually have the kits in stock now, no need to wait.
