Thanks Paul

Looks very nice, did you get the covers from America?
Yes, I am over here every three weeks (i am here now) so it is the perfect place to get parts

FAST LSxr, I bought the fuel rails, manifold and "big mouth" 102 throttle body from them. It is all now on a different Topcats Racing customers car.

It has a different ECU, custom exhaust, 6 speed box, uprated front brakes, better suspension, wider rubber to name a few smile
Hi, lovely Tam.

What size rubber did you manage to fit without fouling the arches?

Did you just go with the 322mm AP front brakes, or have you fitted something a bit more exotic?

Cheers

Ed

Hi Ed. And thanks.

I did not build the car, I bought it from an enthusiast. I think some of the build is documented on PH somewhere. Look for STEVESPG.

The rear tyres are 265's I think. I know the inner arch has been modified to accommodate them. The car sits on Toyo Proxes R1R's. They're cracking tyres, very grippy.
I believe the front discs are slightly bigger (size unknown), and the car has fast road pads on it. They seem to cope fine.

Mark.

Know that car pretty well, Steve is possibly the best person to buy a car off, he is so meticulous with his conversions! it is probably the best I have seen so far, the quickshift he fitted is a personal favourite! and I personally think he had it up WAY too cheap! if I hadn't already of bought my LS3 Tam I would have snapped his hands off!

Hope you enjoy it, the power takes some getting use to!!
