sideexitsupra Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 Just done the boot rubbers. Not as bad as some have mentioned with only one bolt proving a bit reluctant. Will try to get the stubby on this week and sort out when the new side exit can be fitted :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luc, it all comes down to whether you trust Paul/Darren to attack your skirts! I trust Darren and Paul ... the only problem is that I won't be able to get side exits MOT'd over here.

sideexitsupra Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Sorry, no pics or videos yet but I am now the proud owner of side exit exhausts. These really sound the business especially with the window open. No need to sort the aircon now! Had some issues making it all line up correctly until we put a Whifbitz Decat pipe on in place of my HKS item. Also fitted last week were some BC Coilovers and the fmic I got from PeterP. Darren had some fun (not his words!) getting it to fit, but did a sterling job. Had to lose the stock Airbox but he managed to fabricate a set up with a K&N cone filter. Not ideal but better than nothing. With the RLTC now set up all that was left was a trip to WIM to get the geometry sorted. Now, I'm no racing driver but the difference is phenomenal. The car was so far out before it was almost embarrassing. Will get pics and videos soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I really like that OMP wheel, as Chris said only real aftermarket one I like. Im thinking that could be the next investment Maybe we can get a group discount on wheel bosses from Paul Whats this first engine mod then? You going single already ?

sideexitsupra Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 Whats this first engine mod then? You going single already ? Not yet! Brakes and cage next on the list, followed by valve stem seals and maybe some cheeky camshafts. Thanks for the piccies Paul. I will try to get some photos of the Super Pro exhaust rubbers as they have really improved matters. Still need to make the holes in the skirt a little bigger and trim them with aluminium though.

Chris Wilson Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Nice exhaust, keeps the weight within the wheelbase and very low. But, err, cough, cough. Fuel pipes? Heat? LH silencer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sideexitsupra Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 Nice exhaust, keeps the weight within the wheelbase and very low. But, err, cough, cough. Fuel pipes? Heat? LH silencer? Taken care of already. The box is wrapped and the fire extinguisher is ready! Seriously though, will be keeping a very close eye on this. I was a little nervous about this but the wrap appears to be doing the job for now. The exhaust manufacturer seemed to think it would be fine as was so the extra peace of mind from the wrap is welcome. SteveL has been running a similar set up on his racer this year with no issues, and I'm sure his will be getting hotter than mine. 200 mile run home after visiting WIM and all looks fine so far. Not had any issues with grounding. The new system is actually higher than the lowest part of my Super Dragger that was on before. Thanks for the pointer though.

sideexitsupra Posted August 6, 2011 Author Share Posted August 6, 2011 Fitted the removable wheel boss and made the trims for the side exits. Some may think that the trims are a little large but decided that if o had side exits, I may as well make a feature of them. They are made from 1mm aluminium sheet cut to size and riveted. http://tapatalk.com/mu/5ac877db-0b85-2b7d.jpg Possibly some other bits before Suprapod!

Then off to the powder coaters before its fitted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sideexitsupra Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 Dropped the cage off at the powder coaters this evening. Small amount of prep required to clean up some welds and remove the ears to attach it to the "b" pillar. Will have to see if it comes back red or black. Hopefully red. Can't be too picky as they are doing this bit for free! http://img.tapatalk.com/d55168f7-e323-8c1c.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sideexitsupra Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 Still waiting for the cage to come back but finally got all the left over adhesive off the back screen from when the tint film was removed. It only took 2 x 30ml bottles of nail varnish remover! MOT time on Tuesday so looked at some of the little bits and pieces that needed attention. Most importantly tracked down my boost issue. Loose vac pipe. Not that this will shock anyone. Also decided the diffuser would look better sitting a little lower so did this. http://img.tapatalk.com/d55168f7-041f-f654.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/d55168f7-0430-2f6f.jpg It only drops by about 20mm but think it looks much better.

Noz Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Looks nice that. Where you get your diffuser? You also have blades in the middle, did they come with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdavies Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I LIKE that diffuser, would be tempted to get the exhaust hole smoothed out the rear bumper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
