Project AutoX domination!

Looking good! looking forward to seeing them all mounted up this summer

[MustGoFaster]

Unless your autoXing you probably won't see them. Unless I drive to OC with them once. These are for my R compound tires, they won't see much street time.

[FattyBoomBatty]

You need to go full baller on this one and drive them on the street.

^word.

His street tires have enough grip for daily driving I am sure. Plasma cutter might be in order. Do they stick out more then Jessie's rim/tire combo?

[MustGoFaster]

Yeah, they stick out more than Jessie's by a lot, he only had 9" wide rims on his car.

[Shotgun!]

What are their specs?

[MustGoFaster]

17x10 and only 17lbs. 18mm offset.

[Shotgun!]

Dang, thats a crazy low offset!

[MustGoFaster]

About the highest I could go would be ~25mm, that would get me ~3mm clearnace to the strut. But with the lower offset I can run wider tires later if I chose to.

[MustGoFaster]

Since I'm planning on more TQ and more traction I decided to add a little more strength to my drive train. This is called a Transfercase brace, and it eliminates the 1st weak spot in my drive train. The transfercase housings like to crack when launching with a lot of power and grip. The braces are proved to be quite effective, a number of people have run 10 second 1/4 mile times for a few years with out cracking the case with a brace.




It goes on this thing in case your wondering:

[turbotalon1g]

Sick.
10" wide. =

[MustGoFaster]

10" wide SLICKS =


Update: I hooked up my oil temp and pressure gauges. The coolant temp is wired, but I need to install the sensor. The boost gauge will be down under the radio.

[Pushit2.0]

Gauges, those are only used for tuning of is something goes wrong. I do not think I looked at any of my 5 gauges in my car when I was driving it. But that is a really nice Tcase brace, so nice I do not see the need to make a better one, that does not happen often, enough.

Very nice brace Ryan.

I knew I shouldn't have read through this thread..haha. I get the itch to get a 3/s sooo bad. I should just man up, fix the talon, and buy one this summer.

The blue thing in Niterydr's avatar is what tainted me.

[FattyBoomBatty]

The blue thing in his avatar got my taint all over it when no one was looking.
