The Cage is now complete! Thanks to our friends at LRT Racing we were able to put in a very capable 8.50 Second certified roll cage for Chuck. At Chucks request we added in some nice door bar disconnects to make entry and exit into the car juuusssst a little easier. We still have some more painting to do on the floorboards but the cage design is done.

You will also notice on the drivers side two small upright bars running along the door bar. That is for the window net when the project is closer to completion

Next on the agenda is installing that sweet carbon fiber roof in matte finish on the car

on with the cage pictures!

Here are some updates of Chuck’s 1,000 HP+ Nissan GT-R Build. The next step in the casting process is to have our design done in a prototype casting. This brings us to today. We now have a few sets of prototype manifolds that we can begin to develop full kits around, namely Tim Sanders and Chuck’s GT-R. With these manifolds we can not only create the remaining components for the kit but we can actually complete two cars and put down some real world numbers and move forward with kit production. Here are a few sample pictures. Keep in mind the prototype casting is not as clean looking as the final production piece but on the inside (where it counts) its top notch!

We got some pics of the chassis work. please excuse the quality as we had to use a cheapo digital this time around.

Its time to remove the roof skin on chucks car to prepare for cage work and our new Carbon kevlar roof.

As you can see the stock GT-R roof bracing is VERY well done:

While we wait for casting we are finalizing all the bits and hardware needed for the kit including intercooler piping, Intake piping and downpipes. Here are some more updates as we further develop the kit on Tim’s GT-R.

I have seen a lot of turbo kits in my day but I think this one is officially the coolest kit ever! These heat shields look like something out of Transformers or TRON!

Below are some more updated pictures of the turbo kit with the prototype heat shields. The production shields will not have rivets and will be welded up. This is just a sample.
Also notice the very strong but OEM like integrated turbo support bracket.

Keep in mind the turbo is just a mock up turbo so you will not see any wheels in it

I love this kit!
