Well, I guess you are going to be disappointed when you see the new turbo setup, and potentially future 1,xxx dyno numbers.

I built the car for the street, if you can follow me.

So what part of America requires 1,000 HP to do the speed limit?

You can just say it's a "Demo car" and we'll understand.

Because even the Bugatti Veyron wasn't built as a "Street Car".

Oh, you guys were referring to America, I thought you meant Mexico.

Yeah, I always run 60-160 in Mexico.

Speed limits are different down there, lol.

Ian · 09-10-2007, 11:23 AM

actually no they're not

umsports · 09-10-2007, 11:49 AM

Maybe the area I go to is just not patrolled very well then, haha.

Edgar · 09-10-2007, 11:54 AM

It's a demo car for sure.
Car is looking nice

j20accord00 · 09-10-2007, 07:58 PM

i dont get why people care so much..demo, drag, queen, whatever its sick..instead of picking out all the negative just be thankful that he took the time and energy to post up some pics of what hes got going on. idk about you guys but like i said before and good job well done..looks really good IMO. talk to you later man

-Evan

Ps are you going to be at nopi this weekend for sure? im taking the ride down there got our tickets and hotel room last week. hope to see you down there

umsports · 09-10-2007, 09:07 PM

Man, I doubt I'll make it.

From Dallas, it's a 13 hour drive, and not something I can justify in a weekend.

haha i hear that its a good 14 hrs from me as well..but my Aunts bf is Don Nase, father of Don Nase Jr. worlds fastest sport compact dragster so he hooked me up with a room and tickets just gotta drive..ahh whatever should be a good time..with the girl friend or without..

daryl337 · 09-11-2007, 08:51 AM

In all actuality, even if it IS a demo car in its primary purpose, UM owns it and they can do what they want with it, I just hope I dont see him on the news in a 190+ mph " try to outrun the helicopters and radios" chase... that would be a waste of a beautiful car.

I will give you 3$ for it.

Cmon! Even Trade!

umsports · 09-26-2007, 05:54 PM

Just an update, the new Borg Warner S374 (74mm) turbo is being installed on the car tomorrow.

The 4" piping will be fabricated next week, and then the upgraded fuel system will be installed.

I'm hoping to break 900whp in my street car, and I'll be posting photos of the progress.

umsports · 09-27-2007, 06:43 PM

I was hoping this was going to be a bolt-on affair, with just new 4" piping needing to be fabricated......right....

The new turbo hit the valve covers, so Jason @Matchless Performance came to the rescue to modify the exhaust manifold.

The block looks so lonely without it's friend.

Starting the modification work on the manifold, basically changing the angle on the flange so the turbo sits flush.

So now....the actions shots...

Man, Jason knows how to work by the clock. Took right at 3 hours from start to finish, very impressive.

Look at the clearance....Almost makes me want to go bigger, hum....

s13silvia123 · 09-27-2007, 06:50 PM

wow impressive makes me drool

maximus nismo · 09-28-2007, 09:17 AM

nice. very nice.

I don't think anyone has asked this yet, but what camera is used to take these shots? What are the specs? The pics are amazingly crisp.

Keep up the good work.

CursedGTR · 09-29-2007, 05:17 PM

I rike it arot.

slow40 · 12-05-2007, 01:11 AM

you got anymore of those fittings for the rear oil drain from DANE?
i saw the groupbuy, just wandering if you still stocked them

pm sent

umsports · 12-25-2007, 07:31 AM

No, those drain mods will never arrive it appears.

I hate it, because we sent customers money to him, and he never delivered.

I dont know what is going on.

240'suck · 12-25-2007, 01:56 PM

might as well relocte to floor pedals, and save the master cyls.

slow40 · 12-25-2007, 08:21 PM

updates? hows she run

btw i made my own fitting. its all good

mayco_86 · 12-31-2007, 08:58 PM

Still no updates. Want to see a dyno video and running too. LOL.

*S13Boosts* · 12-31-2007, 09:23 PM

nice just nice

drifting.8 · 12-31-2007, 10:04 PM

very nice
little too much for my tastes.
+1

umsports · 01-15-2008, 07:02 AM

Here's the latest update, the car is finished with the Borg Warner 74mm Single Turbo, and the new 4" Downpipe and Exhaust. The turbo back exhaust is straight 4” piping broken into three pieces via V-bands. Photos are posted below.

This thing sounds absolutely wicked, and we are putting together a dyno video to post up.

I want to thank Matchless Performance in Addison, TX for the piping work, as it came out flawless.

YoungGun · 01-15-2008, 10:10 AM

Wooooow lots of time and even more money were put into this car. Big props to you guys building such an awesome car. No disrespect, but do you think you'll be able to handle a car with 900+whp? I know I wouldn't.

a_ahmed · 01-15-2008, 12:56 PM

omg lol that exhaust is a monster! The steering column will vibrate :P

Ian · 01-15-2008, 01:39 PM

So not to split hairs but...what do you exactly do with this car when it's running?

bloodangels13 · 01-15-2008, 01:50 PM

IAN .... what ever a 1000hp rb powered s14 feels like doin..... eatin everything alive...

I've handled it at 700whp, and the car actually hooked on MT ET Street Radials.

On regular tires, the car is downright useless. The only tire I will drive on the street with is the ET Street Radial, and it may not hold up to the task with the new turbo.

That tire is working for the Big HP Supra and Viper Guys, so I have to assume it will work. Time will tell....

Ian · 01-15-2008, 02:12 PM

probably wanna switch to a better setup...what tire/wheel size do you run?
