    Brads Raptorcharged VS
    290rwhp


    My Ride:
    Vs commodore 1995 S pac

    Exterior:
    rear spoiler removed
    all badges removed including 2 holden badges
    18" rims (vy clubby rims hsv)
    dumped
    front end and rear end fresh paint
    20 grade tint
    smoked tail lights

    Interior:
    black painted cluster surround
    black hood lining
    blue courtsey light
    blue dash lights
    boost guage
    vx calais seats

    Stereo:
    pioneer head unit
    response mono block
    kicker 12' sub
    response 4 channel
    jvc components
    mtx in rear 6 inch

    Engine:
    raptor supercharger kit
    intercooled
    1.9/1.95 roller rockers
    12psi pulley (11psi at motor)
    huge alloy radiator
    reverse plenum
    all polished pipes
    twin bosch plumb backs
    semi tidy up in engine bay

    Exhaust:
    na pacemakers
    into twin 2 1/4 dual cats
    then into a single 3' with a muffler and resi

    Gearbox:
    corvette servos
    boost valve
    gearbox is slighty fuct

    Diff:
    3.45 gears fully recon
    tightly shimmed LSD


    In the future:

    i wanna build a motor to handle about 15psi of boost with a decent forced induction cam i will probablly go with an l67 bottom end standard stroke
    will have shaved heads and it will receive some serious porting on the inlet side of things
    once this happens it will move from daily drive to a weekender.

    hopefully soon i shall get her a fresh coat of paint just gonna stick with white but ill get those strips taken off and get rear door handles for front and paint them all and i wanna get rid of the body kit as im not a huge fan of any body kits.

    tell me wat u think

    as said above, looks tough.

    I stand corrected, didn't realise the clubsport had different rims to the R8. Well I guess you learn something new everyday.

    just a little update my diff gears have arrived today 3.45
    i went and pucked up a carrier diff and im taking it to my diff guy today.
    i also had a thought of vx seats instead of my seats and seems a few people have done it before and i had money burning a hole in my pocket so i have the vx seats at my house for 200 bucks front and back
    today im just gonna concentrate on the front seats.
    should be sik with them all done.
    as for the diff i have a freshly reconditioned lsd centre and the diff is getting a overhaul everything ill be new
    have bene quoted 550 for a tranny service boost valve and corvette servos think just 2 corvette servos.

    haha good to see my old diff is going to very very good use...

    This car looks killa tho, nice n clean look on the outside and a nice powerplant hiding under the hood. It will be good to see how it goes after the tune, with the work done it should be a qwik street car.
