[WhitEvoMr]

cool

[WTF?]

nice

[Drummerboy]

Looks good. I need to come up there for some piping work. Armond and I were talking about you the other day, lol.

[Batlground]

Oh yeah? Whats Armond been up to?

[Batlground]

We just finished this car yesterday.

It has an upgraded intercooler and custom piping that we made at our shop. It also has a custom exhaust that we made about 2 years ago. We tuned it today with an safc and ran 14 psi of boost on it with a greddy profec b. Here are the results.

Stop post whoring Dan

[awestun]

looks complicated. Reps.

[roscoe]

damn nice lookin work

[burke420]

looks like yall gots some work youve been doing.... nice swaps you did!

[cm7k24]

pretty bad ass.

[Drummerboy]

Oh yeah? Whats Armond been up to?

Hes rebuilding the tranny on the VR4 last I talked to him (last week). Says by August 5th he'll be back on the road with turbos making somewhere in the 800-1000hp range. that thing is beastly. He was running it NA, and it was making the same power I am with 12lbs boost:(

...Then he shredded a carbon fiber drive shaft... But thats replaced now.

[Nittanys1]

nice work but are you not worried about that screw/bolt being so close to the sidewall of the tire?

[Batlground]

That is on the body shop to fix that. I have dyno'd the car and it does not scrub. The wheel cambers in under that compression as well so it does clear. I would not have made the fender flares mount in that way tho.

[Nittanys1]

IC, I forgot that the body shop had done that. They should get it fixed IMO. Good work as always guys!

[Digipix]

car's ugly... just saying

[Batlground]

Well as with just about any car...some will, some won't. Thanks for lookin!

[RL...]

lol those brakes are as big as half the ppls rims on this website...

[WTF?]

nice build but i agree the apperance is not all that appealing

[Elbow]

lol those brakes are as big as half the ppls rims on this website...

They aren't even that big looking lol. :???:

[bowdown201]

Do I spy a little N20?

[Z0_o6]

If you don't mind me asking, what made y'all choose not to go with a oil catch can? I see that the vent from the valve cover is plumbed back in before the turbo, is there any reason you did that vs. running the common catch can setup? Doesn't any blow-by oil that gets in through the turbo lower the effective octane of the fuel?

[FasTech]

No comment on this one. I'll say I admire the hard work, I know went into it.

[Me86Rob]

i think a different wheel selection would do this car tons of justice

[Evolunchbox]

Not feeling the look at all, but kudos for the hard work and completion of a project!

[©hris]

interesting car

[JITB]

i kind of like it.. maybe because it has some personality....or maybe bc ive been seeing alot of black clone gs300 lately.

[Batlground]

thanks guys. Catch can was not wanted. I agree that it can cause a problem "polluting" the clean air. I also agree that maybe a different lass busy wheel would make a huge difference in the over all appearance of the car. there is NO2 ran but not functioning, as well as a really killer ICE system.

[Me86Rob]

idk if its so much that the wheel is busy...but it just shows off alot of the under-carraige of the car. so it looks dirty. plus the flash from the camera shows off all the imperfections in the wheel. im sure it would look much better with natral sunlight on it

[Batlground]

This is a customer car we are currently working on. Pretty bad ass set up that had been murdered by someone. Wiring nightmare has been remedied, as well as some mechanical and tuning problems. Precision 67mm DBB T3 turbo with front facing manifold. Hydra EMS. CCW 19's look killer in black with this colored body. Will have some more pics and numbers when finished.

[JITB]

look at batlground getting back on grind mode on IA!

[WTF?]

sick!

[ZenMotors]

That thing looks familiar. I remember that car several years ago. I dunno what was done but I had some pictures of it from way back. Hope you guys get it squared away. Nice car! Very hot with the front mounted turbo, and the wheels.


Here are some old pics I found.

[Tracy]

I like the wheels on that car. Hadn't seen em on the Evo yet.

[Tracy]

What is an ICE system?

[Batlground]

That thing looks familiar. I remember that car several years ago. I dunno what was done but I had some pictures of it from way back. Hope you guys get it squared away. Nice car! Very hot with the front mounted turbo, and the wheels.

Hopefully none of the problems arose when the car was at "your old shop".

This car was a disaster and there is no excuse for the way things were done.

[ZenMotors]

Yeah, I'm not really sure. I just remembered the car. I think the vehicle was there for only a short period of time. Hopefully you guys get it right.

[Batlground]

In Car Entertainment. I think

[DrAE86Toreno]

hmm...i know me and dan would love that engine on our GS lol...

[Batlground]

look at batlground getting back on grind mode on IA!

LOL.........We are just posting what we do everyday now. We should have been doing it all along but its hard to do when your busy.

[Catnip]

They aren't even that big looking lol. :???:


It says they're 15" rotors... so... lol... that's big

[2rotor]

i think a different wheel selection would do this car tons of justice

agreed!
i imagine the underhood looks better in person.

[96Plumls]

The car is already up for sale

[Batlground]

post on craigslist has been deleted it says. but damn.

[96Plumls]

The post is still up, and thats not much for that car

[Evolunchbox]

The car is already up for sale
http://atlanta.craigslist.org/ctd/1273385998.html

WOW!

[Glides]

I like it. Not digging the stripe on the side much but other than that, it's better looking than this whole "Clean" stock look most people on this sight jack off too. The paint under the hood is a bit much. The swap is gangster. It's good to see someone actually make a car look modified instead of just putting stocks on it and lowering it and calling it "Clean" Good stuff.

[Batlground]

This set up was done for a 200sx that was having ignition problems at high (24+) boost. Running an AEM EMS, so this set up was fairly straight forward. I really like the way this turned out. Ultra clean and low profile. We also fabricated a 4" aluminum exhaust. No BS straight through no muffler. We made a 3" to 4" steel section and then band strapped the aluminum section. Almost exactly like our drift car.

[Batlground]

^^^^Love your car. It makes me happy.

[Batlground]

Long time customer of ours has sadly wrecked his supra. He is such a good guy, swerved to miss an animal in the road, and sacrificed his car. Insurance is trying to rebuild/repair it so we took the engine out and sent it off to the frame shop. Hopefully all will be well and I can post the finished job after repairs.

[carbongs]

hmm...i know me and dan would love that engine on our GS lol...

what about me!?! :taun:

[BexSican 408]

I bet it hauls ass but I would have completely restyled the car.

[Batlground]

Yeah it does haul ass! Amazing performance out of that built auto.

[Brian*]

Engine A+
Car C-

But power is all I really care about, so its a win in my book!

[DrAE86Toreno]

haha once u put the pix up then ill include you in there...haha...btw make sure u try out that suspension before u give me and dan the thumbs up lol


what about me!?! :taun:

[Tracy]

Oh no!!! Is that Chris's car???? :( Poor poor poopra.

[Batlground]

I still dont see the CL ad. at least through that link.

[silverDA]

in car electronics/




In Car Entertainment. I think

[Batlground]

gotcha. thanks I won't make the same mistake twice.

[batlbrandon]

Holy crap. That price is unbelievable.

[BanginJimmy]

it'll buff out.

[Nittanys1]

that sux, wheres the pic of the engine out ;)

[batlbrandon]

How long has this car been around? Where was it at before? thats crazy that there are pics of it in pretty much the same condition.

[Batlground]

Its gone to the frame shop already. Once its straight we will put it back in.

[Batlground]

Hes rebuilding the tranny on the VR4 last I talked to him (last week). Says by August 5th he'll be back on the road with turbos making somewhere in the 800-1000hp range. that thing is beastly. He was running it NA, and it was making the same power I am with 12lbs boost:(

...Then he shredded a carbon fiber drive shaft... But thats replaced now.


LOL LOL LOL...................... :lmfao:

Is he still trying to run an emanage in that car ..... :lmfao:

Hopefully he got an AEM EMS. Maybee he will finally bring it by here for me to tune it. Well, if it can successfully make it from his house to here without breaking something else.

[Batlground]

looks complicated. Reps.

Nah, it was pretty easy for us to do.

[Batlground]

updated, and improved

[j0natell0]

is this a asian guy named kawai's car? it has a sidemount bov i believe

[Drummerboy]

Im assuming this is Dan? Do you have any experience tuning an Aquamist MF2 injector controller? I've tried everything but im still running WAY too lean. how much do you charge for a really simple tune?

[Batlground]

Yes Dan can tune the aquamist and our tuning rate is $149 an hour. if it is a simple tune then it should only take an hour.

[Batlground]

Nah different guy. But if your friend needs anything we can hook him up. Brandon is really good with the 2nd gen MR's

[j0natell0]

thats cool man. ill let him know about yall

[Drummerboy]

yeah, i believe its called Periometer screws, 1 for each 1000 rpm, then an input gain and input threshold screw, but it is really pissing me off, lol. I may run up there soon.

That exhaust looks REALLY good on the 200sx, I'd love to be able to afford a full aluminum exhaust.

[Echonova]

Wrecked a $30,000 car for a $3.12 animal...:no:

[The Ren]

aww man thats so sad

[Batlground]

I think we will be trying out (fabbing) some aluminum mufflers as well. Do a couple in 3" and a couple in 4". I know I would like an aluminum exhaust on my DD car!

[Drummerboy]

if you want a car to test on, give me a call, lol.

[Batlground]

keep in touch

[SouthSide Tay]

nice welding on the exhaust

[Ruststang]

Sorry bout the huge link but it's for sale on Ebay now.

[drtyhatch]

just a question, but why would all of that time and effort go into this and not use the 6 speed transmission swap?

[5thgcelica]

wow that things swung way over to the right. that sucks looks like it needs new rails..

[BITCHING]

that sucks i would have hit the aminal

[Dville nismo]

that suck.

[Drummerboy]

:boohoo: :boohoo: :boohoo: :boohoo:


that sucks i would have hit the aminal

depends on the animal. A squirrel or bird, yeah. But something like a Yak or a T-rex? I would be swaggin and swervin for sure.

[Glides]

just a question, but why would all of that time and effort go into this and not use the 6 speed transmission swap?

I'd rather have the auto personally. Stab the gas and go.

nice

[Tracy]

Don't you guys have your sub-forum to post all your threads on? lol like are 12 threads necessary?We do and yes it is necessary. Maybe not 12, but at least the 2. Unfortunately, not enough people look in the sponsor sections to make it worth it to only post there. I spoke with them today about only posting it in the sponsor forum and ONE other relevant forum.

I find 12 threads annoying also (as a regular using member), but if we are to get the bank out of our buck (as a sponsor), we have to post at least ONE thread outside of our sub-forum.

[Dville nismo]

very cool stuff, reps!
edit: when i can, to many reps to you right now.

[Batlground]

^^^^^^patiently waiting....lol. thanks guys!

[batlbrandon]

Thanks for all the support ppl!

[2turbo4u]

Can't believe the GS is up for sale after all the work. Six speed swaps don't look good on these cars the center console is made for an auto(no jdm 5 or 6spd consoles). The graphics is a little to much, I haven't seen that car around Conyers/Covington area. Hit the stupid animal if he's small, a Yak you smack a tree.

[batlbrandon]

haha yeah. no squirell is taking out my car, unless I hit the brakes and skid on his ass.

[chnco]

You can test out fabbing alum mufflers on my M3. :)

[batlbrandon]

Come on with it. That would be really cool.

[chnco]

M3 muffler's are a bitch, I'm sure Dan knows.

Im sure BMW and Borla know what they are doing but that seems over engineered.
