Why is there several of the same image?
**edit** never mind about the "mysterious oil cooler in the door," bigger pictures reveal the door is missing.... But, gives me an interesting idea.

why WOULDN'T this be ready in time?!
they fixed Eric's Subaru in 4 days after the crash in Seattle, and that had a ton of fab work on the front end. All they have to do is fab up a cage, replace everything with CF panels (which seibon already has), drop in a motor, add an E-brake, add suspension, and they're set to go. 60 days of working time, 10-12 hours a day with 2 guys... I don't see why it couldn't be done?
Dai's car in 8 days from almost scratch. Eric's car in 4 days from a bad wrecked. What's so hard to believe about 60 days?Comment

...and, hoping everything works right the first time they start it up, they can make time to go a place where they can test it, shake it down...take notes, develop an original program further, take it there again, etc., etc. I don't think they can learn from others when trying to make a drift car out of an R35, so they are going to have to discover things on their own for now.Originally posted by Slapshotnerd View Post
Or, they can just shake it down at Long Beach. ;-)Comment

Rebuilding something that was already competitive or proven competitive is much different from building something from scratch that has never been done before... IE JIC Porsche.
I will be really surprised if we see this anytime before the east coast leg of the series. And I will be even more impressed if it is competitive at any time during the 2010 series.Comment

You know, we also had our doubts with the AEM tC. It worked out fairly well for them.Originally posted by blaze1 View PostComment

Which is why I've been thinking about something. Can anyone confirm that these photos are up to date or if the photos and story are behind the actual build? (In other words, is the car further along than we assume)Comment
