Trev Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 (edited) i niticed that most have the bumpers removed, i know the plastic ones are quite heavy but it seems the trend to have none at all? I should point out that the clubman racing sprinter is all corolla (Steel panels etc), It even still has the working bonnet release cable, The engine bay shots are also very nice.

toyota1515 Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 ohh yes we have a trend of removing the bumpers 1rst cuz they weigh a lot and we try to go fast no matter what but in some cars looks real good like they ment to be without them hahaha, also casan~as said that i am like the rice and beans cuz i am everyware hahaha an ol saying from puerto rico, wel pictures will keep coming from us till we run out of em. here are some of the powerplants pictures of couple of the 7 second cars from Puerto Rico enjoy la baby turbo men in black west racing el elegido stephanie litlle gabriel nibo race el papote Quote
dookie Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 some very nice cars you guys have over there! Quote
ae174agze Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 i'm seeing that theres no intercoolers on those rotoarys ???? no lag i surepose Quote
Taz_Rx Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 Yeah pretty much none of the 6/7/8 second rotaries in the world use coolers. If they do then its a barrel cooler filled with dry ice! Yeah lag has a fair bit to do with it, but really for 7 second, if its tuned nice you can do without one. Quote
toyota1515 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Posted November 16, 2007 the reason on that isue is not because the lag is because they run on alcohol (methanol) and the engine runs real cold no need for cooling the charge that is already cold, in a alcohol car you need gods ammounts of fuel to run wright already if you cooled the charge more you are going to need more fuel then and it is a litlle hard to stabilize the intake charge and the tunning is not that presize so in order to a better tunneabllity the intake charge is not intercooled giving us a better and stable setup to tune!

Taz_Rx Posted November 16, 2007 Report Posted November 16, 2007 This one has a cooler! :lolcry: Just saw it and thought I might post if for you PR/USA boys, just incase you have never see/heard of the QSR quad bmw. Quote

Taz_Rx Posted November 17, 2007 Report Posted November 17, 2007 out of interest, what do you guys pay for Microtechs over there? Is there local dealers, or do you just buy them direct from Microtech in Aus? Eg, this is what's in that car pictured http://www.microtech-efi.com/product/9.html So with the current exchange rate, thats about US$1000. Quote
toyota1515 Posted November 17, 2007 Report Posted November 17, 2007 (edited) well the lt10s i can get it for $999.00 US dollars! for the stand alone and $845.00 for the fuel only like the one in the picture! (THIS PRICES ALWAYS CHANGE WITH THE DOLLAR EXCHANGE) and that is my cost, i sell em for a litlle more to get profit, but i am not rely on this for my shop, i am not the best seller for microtech but i am one of the sellers that get the customer what they are paying for!
