(The 5K is currently for sale if anyones interested) The Brakes are terrific having Audi Front Vented Discs with VN Commodore Front callipers, Rear brakes are Series 2 RX7 Discs with Vn commodore rear calipers. Front suspension is modified ke25 struts, with kings springs (coilover), and Noltec Solid adjustable Caster/Camber top plates. It is fitted with a full alloy roll cage, Strut Brace, All seats and carpet removed, VELO Race seat with 6 point 3 inch race harness.

May 28, 200620 yr Author comment_119967 Thanks mate for the welcome! I'm glad i came across this site! Here are some pics. I'm after $1500 for the motor, with the haltech and exhaust and throttle bodies, the motor was completely rebuilt only 1 month ago for a race meeting, The injection setup is very unique, quad throttle bodies are from a GPZ1100 motorbike, The manifold is custom to suit. Hope u like the pics guys.!! Report
May 28, 200620 yr comment_119973 Love it!! What exactly are the rules for the Improved Production class? Report
May 28, 200620 yr Author comment_119976 The rules for imp production racing are very good actually, there is a few rules as far as Engine must be of the same configuration as your model car (eg 4cyl, 6cyl inline, V6, V8) and the block must be made by the same manufacturer as your car (Eg. Toyota, Nissan etc.) Cylinders heads are pretty much open to anything, you can use forced induction however you will need to run restrictors on the turbo, Brakes are open to anything that you can fit inside a wheel 1 inch larger than standard on that particular model, Gearbox is open but no more than 5 forward gears. The are obvioulsy alot more rules but that is basically the major parts. Report
May 28, 200620 yr comment_119983 Pity about the weight restrictions that apply though. Isn't there some sort of rule about any car being issued with a log book after 1 January 2004 has to run as a late model car, and therefore has to comply with minimum weight restrictions? Report
May 28, 200620 yr Author comment_119985 Yeah there is late model and early model classes, there are weight restrictions yeah. It is a great class with all sorts of makes and models, all sorts of engine combinations and very close competetive racing! and a great bunch of guys aswell. And you have to run on a controlled YOKOHAMA TYRES A048R Report
May 28, 200620 yr comment_119989 Yeah, that's going to be expensive for me when I finally get my car ready (years away yet). I know that 14" A032R's cost about $220/wheel, but I suppose the performance is worth it. I'd be the A048's will cost even more again though :(. Report
May 28, 200620 yr Author comment_119990 Well i still run 13 inch wheels at the moment, i paid $205 per tyre only a few weeks ago. Report
May 28, 200620 yr comment_120016 Sounds like fun. do most people run cages? did the jdm ke20/25s come out with a 12" or 13" wheel? Report
May 28, 200620 yr Author comment_120059 Hi mate, yes all cars ahve to run cages, These cars have to be log booked by CAMS. And cars are checked before all race meetings. I believe they came out with 13" wheels. Report

Hi mate, well i am converting the dizzy as a pick up for a coil pack setup, basically i just use the bottom of the dizzy with no cap, a waste spark setup. It is a tight fit but it does work. Ill have more pics for you guys soon. Report
