Great weekend just been at Flat Nats 2019.

Congratulations to our customer Bobby for reaching the 11sec mark!

We had 3 of our customer’s cars we built racing. Unfortunately we don’t have pics of all of the slips, results are below:

Red Legacy: 11.95@115mph best run.
White GC8 STI RA: 12.08 @ 116mph best run.
White RS Legacy: 12.02 @ 115mph.

All these cars are capable of 11second passes. We’ll be out again to run 11s in all 3!

Here’s some footage from Sunday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf0-OS4gTkw

Another recently completed project is Bobby’s ‘97 Legacy RSB.

This car came to us stock-standard with twin turbos and a new EJ207 shortblock.
Wanting some more reliable power, we converted it to a twisted Greddy TD06-20g turbo, FMIC and wired up a Link G4+, 1000cc injectors and all the supporting mods for a reliable, 260kw+ sleeper!

We also installed a V7 STi 6speed gearbox to handle the increased power, along with the R180 diff, Brembo brakes and brand new BC Gold coilovers along with a bunch of other cool parts.

This car has a total new feel and is an extremely enjoyable car to drive. We had a great day out with Bobby at Meremere yesterday ending up with a new PB of 12.3 at 115mph. 11's are only around the corner.
