Shadow Machine Update

Well, figured its about that time to give an update as to where my car is and what has been done.

Wheels, suspension, mounting
- 07 Gold Sti BBS w/ Bridgestone Potenza RE070's
- Koni Struts
- Ground Control Coilovers F450/R415
- $20/20 min mod
- Urethane Rear diff bushings
- Group N Transmission Mount
- Group N Engine Mounts

Transmission
- Ver8 JDM 6mt (close ratio)
- DCCD controller (shorting out... need to troubleshoot)
- Custom Short throw shifter
- STi Pedal covers for all 3
- Stage 3 Spec 6 puck racing clutch

Engine
- 100% Stock long block
- ECUtune Stage 3 supercharger (modified)
- Tomyx Intake w/ 200mm HKS element CAI w/ velocity stack
- Custom 1 3/4" Headers w/ Custom 2.5" Dual exhaust
- Hydra Nemesis Standalone EMS
- MadDad triple digital gauges (oil pressure, boost, EGT)
- AEM Uego wideband
- PWR all aluminum radiator w/ Motorsport Warehouse Silicone hoses
- Walbro 255lbph Fuel pump

This is mostly it. w/ a basic road tune I was able to catch a 12.9 in the 1/4 mile and I am waiting to get some dyno time for a good tune and graphs. Couple pics of the car below.

Re: Shadow Machine Update

It's a shame you Jersey guys have to have a license plate on the front. That beat up thing looks kind of wrong on the front of that SVX.

Yea, I know... But if I were to remove it, that would only make one more reason to get in trouble... And I don't need any more of those

Re: Shadow Machine Update

time for the winter slumber... I have removed my s/c and installed a gutted stock intake. I will be having the manifold, t/b adapter, and all other components powder coated over the winter.

Re: Shadow Machine Update

Hey Tom, I thik I've come up with a way to help you keep your "spider" covered in stock sheetmetal.

Cut along the recessed area of a hood, stopping at the end of the crease. Then, cut the part out that slopes down to the center. Take the two resulting pieces, swap them out. Then the slopes will be up, rather than down. You'll have the world's first "stock" cowl induction hood. It's guaranteed to match factory lines.

This would be a lot of work, most of it tedious, but the results could be spectacular.
