Nice. I'm on the fence about polishing my FMIC. I don't think you can see the polished bits once mounted... but polished looks so :yum:

Ceramic coated exhaust pipes too? Nice.

Thriller 11-28-2012 10:32 AM

It. Looks. AWESOME!

98intrigue 11-29-2012 04:38 PM

I'm off work tomorrow. Where in Tampa are you staying? I took off to detail the Viper for the big Festivals of Speed event in Orlando this weekend. Maybe you could swing by and let me see it?

Glokwork 11-30-2012 10:05 AM

Hey Kelly thank you very much for the offer I may take you up on that!

Ryan I'm back at S&R this morning making some changes and cleaning te car up.

My plan is to head out sometime today and make up time. First though I do want to put some miles on in Tampa to make sure it's good for the long journey.

Decided to tear up my front bumper since I have to replace it anyways.

I wanted to experiment :eek:

I think some black vinyl or paint on fangs and left over black piece is cheap way to clean up my hack job.

Why not? :)

I have to replace anyway.

Lets see how this affects my oil temps and driving over all.

GaleForce 12-14-2012 06:30 PM

I wonder how it would look if you extend the fangs up...

Glokwork 12-19-2012 06:56 PM

There was some issues that I was not pleased with and I wouldn't accept. I made them take the car back and make the changes. It's done now just waiting for the shipping company to bring it home for christmas!

Wow that looks dope and props to you for trying it! I agree that I think the fangs extended up would improve the look even more.

Have you had a chance to test everything out yet?

W.O.W. 370Z 12-21-2012 08:53 AM

Not hijacking your thread Glokwork just updating. :)

So my oil temps have been noticeably lower. I have a 72 row oil cooler but with the huge intercooler not much air flow was getting through.

I knew it wouldn't look good but the increased function( more air flow) and look of intercooler works for me.

Glokwork 12-21-2012 10:35 PM

I don't mind at all sir I'm always open to sharing experiences! Mother of god where did you get such a massive oil cooler?!

Glokwork 12-31-2012 12:42 PM

Got a few mods saved up to start putting on the car in the coming days. Sway bars, lug nuts, dry carbon engine covers and partial cf front lip!

Here is a sweet canvas my friend had made for me thanks buddy!

Here's a few quick crappy phone pics before class today. Cut the center of the front bumper out and added the evo r partial cf front lip.

What do you guys think?

Looks sweet. How do you like the boost?

Jasonle 01-08-2013 05:56 PM

so jealous man. looks really good

Mr&Mrs 01-08-2013 08:22 PM

Looks great! Tell us about that powa!

MIGHTYMOUSE 01-08-2013 09:49 PM

no more raptor front end?

PharmDZ 01-08-2013 10:02 PM

Hmmm how much lower would you say the front end is now with the evo-r lip? I just lowered my car and BARELY scrape my factory plastic "sport lip", but really want that Evo-R lip! Looks so good with the CF in the center.

I love the boost...it's definitely addicting and the power is raw.

Thanks man...the power is no joke at all. On 7psi (low boost) it's making 480whp and its plenty of fun. On 10psi (high boost) it's making 551whp/482wtq and is a complete animal. I have broken traction at 85mph+ and my wastegate is opening around 3500 rpm :happydance:

The center isn't much lower at all, but on each side, I would guess it adds about 2 inches to the drop. I can get you some measurements this weekend.

GaleForce 01-10-2013 06:40 AM

Sounds awesome!

sfearl1 01-14-2013 09:35 PM

Looking good! Diggin that lip :P
