it will be interesting to see what kind of power band you can squeeze out with the gt35r. Have you considered heat wrapping exhaust components?

Oh man that does look amazing. Is the pump able to keep up with the added amount of work it takes to flow the water around that size unit?

I would like to do some of those mods too. Oil pan spacer, dual oil coolers, giant water heat exchanger and the bigger reservoir.

Let me know man, it looks awesome!

To bad your half way across the country. I would help out.

RCZ 12-03-2010 11:25 AM

Jay, worried about airflow to the radiator? I Just looked at the pictures again and it looks like you might have completely blocked off flow of clean air to it. If you put the oil cooler in there also, its going to be even worst. We both know we're gonna need more oil cooling too, that single one is not going to cut it. Maybe its time to pick up a stillen front bumper?

prolly going to move the oil cooler to side and vent the fender liner. but we will see... if it needs it then it will get a second cooler.as for the stillen front bumper, it would be awesome with the sides open but it doesnt flow with what im doing.

Kastley85891 12-20-2010 01:38 AM

Speaking of, the original Batmobile is owned by someone here in the Tampa, FL area. I saw it driving around yesterday. I didn't have time to snap a picture since it was driving in the opposite direction, but this is the one I'm talking about:
