I'm gonna agree with Gary on this one, I LURVVV that front bumper. In fact the whole kit is stupidly hot. Well done FLY 😀

Thanks for all the comments, worked had on this kit. On the way back from Margate I hit the nitros at 250km and melted a piston. Dont know what speed I was doing when I lost power, did not really have anytime to check.

Getting it ready for the drags on Saturday for the First Ave Drag event.

Good luck rebuilding the motor and running it in before Saturday...

FFly20020 May 2008, 11:20

Have never run a motor in. Lasts just as long, it only breaks when I do stupid things like press gas for 1km. Will have it ready Gary you coming to watch. Racing on Saturday night.

GGary5720 May 2008, 11:30

yeah I want to but dont smark sitting on the stands. Can you organise a pit pass??

FFly20020 May 2008, 14:32

could of, but its late now they have all been taken. If someone does not come I will let you know

Great man thanks. That sitting on the stands is rubbish.

A mate of mine is bringing down his 900Hp Norris Designs Evo 8.

Hey guys sorry for the lack of updates and or pictures, but I am now in Perth Australia. I still have the shop in SA but I am living here for now. The cars are still there and I was thinking of selling the SX.

I will post some pics of it so that you can see the finished results.

Me 2 and + 1, and where is the side skirts from?

LLindt22 Sept 2009, 16:06

me too, I'm sure you planned a while ago to make some?

FFly20023 Sept 2009, 14:06

Thanks for the comments guys. The front bumper was a custom build, I used a Corsa front lip and cut it to shape. Used a lot of fiber glass on that one. The side skirts are Skyline items I also had to cut and fiber glass them.

I miss driving it, the nos jets were drilled so the punch in third use to spin the wheels.

yo fly , im from pmb can i come check out your awsome ride?

FFly20025 Sept 2009, 09:15

Hi KC
You can drop in to the shop and check out the car, but I am in Perth so the car will be dusty and sitting in a bay. No one has driven it since I left, it is to easy to crash if they decide to press the wrong buttons. The Mazda is there as well but I let them drive it now and then, it's only running 0.8bar.
