Black Starion

Post by RiceThief »

Last month month Tangcla came up from Melbourne and took some photos of several cars. I was sick so I didn't get a chance to do much to the car but I think they came out alright considering, let me know what you think.

Awesome.

Life is wonderful when you own a Starion unless it needs to be fixed, lol.

Very good pictures.

waaaah, noice one!!!

I never even knew you had a twin cam widey

Looking phenomenally good! Those are the exact kind of wheels I would want if I could afford original BBS :pimp although personally i favour black or darkish centres.

dyno chart? what turbo is it? cams? forgies? comp ratio??? I'm getting too excited... lol

Mrbishi - We'll have to arrange so we can take photos of both starions there.

Thrash - It's grouparalliart's old widey so all the specs of it are on the forum.

Thanks for the comments, it's still a way to go and there are alot I still want to do to it as its not quite complete yet.

Your engine bay looks brilliant, I especially like the turbo placement, looks so 'right'.

Cheers! I wanted it to be able to use the stock heat shield & miss the power steering, fulfils both objectives. Put a heat shield between the alternator & number 1 pipe too, and an additional one between the compressor outlet hose & the manifold too.

I actually half built a jig for this so I have the position right for a dohc. Go for your life though man, this is the spot I put sohc turbo's too, misses everything that way.

Redzone definitely did great work on the car, power delivery is pretty savage though, went sideways a couple of weeks ago when I wasn't expecting it, my eyes would have been the size of saucers when it happened.
