i gather it servers a purpose, im thinking of getting rid of interior and carpet so is it just to keep your feet a bit higher?
oh and what seat are you using?
Gets the feet a bit higher. The pedals sit higher than standard.
aaah the new pedal box, i didnt think there was that much carpet and crap on the floor.
So whats the go with wiring etc, is there any hidden under the carpet that will be exposed when it comes out?, i guess the rear window demister is the only thing that will be in the rear of the car that ill need a wire running from front to back.
Hey i seen that race one at 'Premier Auto' in Mt Druitt, nsw. Dave at there said it was a customers named Greg. If your out there Greg can you tell me more about your beast, hp? setup? work thats done? Im just curious cause it looked awesome dude, well done

Cuss Cuss, there is plenty of wiring to come out from the back. Just leave your fuel pump, brake rear lights and blinkers. All the speaker wires and useless crap can come out. On the JB the electric window wiring and console stuff runs midship across the floor under the carpet. JAs sont seem to follow the same route.
Coltfiction, yes I am Wantsom and its my car. Dave was trying to tune it (to no avail). numerous gremlins in the ECU setup which Merlin, MRB1 and Cookie and me are now sorting out.
The car is running a DASH motor with Haltech and intercooler. Turbo is hi flowed TC06 and split pulse manifold. Power/torque not available yet due to tuning issues per above. Hopefully soon. Previous owner of the motor "claimed" 150kw atw but that should be taken with a grain of salt. I'll wait and see for myself when we get it finally sorted and running properly,
What else- 4 spot brakes with pedal box and bias, bigger rotors, Noltec adjustable suspension, Supra box, LSD, and all the usual gear. Game plan is to use it in Supersprints next year with Cookie (check out his webpage for his car - pretty cool). We're both sort of developing these things together.
Happy to talk to you about it if you want to give me a call on 0418 693 024. Dave mentioned to me there was one of his customers looking for a Starion to set up as a track/club car. Was that you?
Cheers dude, give us a call.
Greg
Never argue with an idiot, it brings you down to their level and they beat you with experience.
Awesome :drool: Yeah that was me and my bud 'Maher'. We found a doner 84 JA starion with 122000kms, reco cyclone motor and drives really good, cost $1000 and just put 12months on her today. Good buy? Question, where did you get that front dam and rear wing/spoiler? Cause i know its hard to get the genuine stuff but what you had is perfect anyways and would clean this old JA up a tad bit. Maher or i will contact you in tha future for a chat, good stuff dude!!

having a quick look that front bar on the race car is either a coltspeed or a JD bar (cant tell...too tired) and the rear is a 3 piece spoiler which came standard on some cars and we are working on getting more imported.
lol u shud be on one of those late night call shows greg "call me, call me now ":D
The front bar is from Coltspeed. The rear is from Aerotech in New Zealand.
Maries silver car has the Aerotech front and rear spoilers. The Aerotech front botlts up under the standard JA bar. The Coltspeed one is an integrated bumper/spoiler.
I went for the Coltspeed one for the track car as it is a fair bit lighter overall when fitted.

Yeah i thought it was a 'coltspeed' one cause my mate has a GSR-V and that has the original plastic Group A front dam, which is a little different and impossible to get. It also has the rear spoiler/wing with the starion badge in the middle but as we all know, also hard to get so i was think'n if there was any aftermarket one avalible some where? Hmmmm? Hey Jeff, cause you live near by, when you have some spare time, should check this Jap import JE GSR-V out? (paul, one of my mitsy buds), its smmiccckkk. :drool:
