Thanks alot, Red was the color I origianally planned but that was before all that crazy body work came to mind. I still may go with red but the door is open for suggestions. I figure as much work as I have left I have time to figure out the color.

I think that orange on your S2000 would look great on it.

no pun intended right... :iceslolan

Amazing job so far. looks even better with the doors in the air.
May i suggest a candy color, maybe candy apple red, or candy brandy wine for a blood red look. whatever color you chose, it should come out awesome.

so much work and time! All those little details are worth the trouble, Mike is right, the doors and door jams came out great. the front facia looks sick, engine work is killer as always.

two questions:

-what did you do to build your supercharger? :dunno:

-why turbo and supercharger? realistically, if that were even possible, the engine mgmt issues would be torturous! -But I like your style- :iceslolan

two questions:

-what did you do to build your supercharger? :dunno:-for the part of the SC that has fins I used a piece from an old hot SC I had in my parts box, the pulley part I actually used the input shaft off a 4x4 differential and the pulley was easy, I just cut the right section out of styrene rod.

-why turbo and supercharger? realistically, if that were even possible, the engine mgmt issues would be torturous! -But I like your style- :iceslolan---Realistically it is very possible but you are right, the tuning would be a nightmare. It's a good thing I don't have to start this motor once its done, huh :rolleyes: j/k. I just wanted to go insane on this ITR since it is the 4th one I have built, I figured in my imaginary world this ITR would Reign!!!

it IS realistic, because i've actually seen a car with both a supercharger and a turbo
you know about turbo's lag right ? well with both of them you dont have it anymore, the supercharger boosts you up as soon as you hit the gas pedal, then when the big turbo spools up, the supercharger stops itself.

guys that did this prolly had HARD times setting this up, but they did it.

For turbo and supercharger, I would build it like this.
Supercharger wakes up the turbo. Like they are in series.
Other way around i think that turbo would push too much boost for the charger.

I could draw a picture tomorrow.

Jurva

Here is a drawing that i made. As you can see, air goes from filter to charger and trough turbo and intercooler to manifold.

Normally charger puts something like 8 psi and turbo 28 psi.

this thing is going to be sweet! Love the body kit and jams! IMO the doors, when opening, should go up and angle towards the center of the nose of the car........looks killer, nobody can say anything about how long it takes me to finish a build now! lol Keep it up!

"IMO the doors, when opening, should go up and angle towards the center of the nose of the car... "

I'm not quite sure what you mean, I saw the HB you have with doors that open similiar to mine but they came away from the body more, is that what you mean???

"nobody can say anything about how long it takes me to finish a build now!" :lol: :lol: Not sure how long it takes you but between work and a social life and all the detail this kit is taking, DAMN it's taking forever..I want to paint it already!! but it is turning out well enough to take my time until it is done right. :smile:

Well I got the intercooler and intercooler pipes mocked up now, I still need to make the blow off valve and intake pipe among other things. I am not far from being able to paint the engine bay but I still have a hell off alot of work to complete before shes done :smile: hope you enjoy.

Excellent job bending the IC/intake piping! Very smooth.
Are the heat stains from bending over an open flame or something more subtle?

I just used my classic ol' bic lighter to bend them. Does not take much to persuade them where I want them.

The engine bay is finally painted so now I can really make some progress on this thing. I still have alot of detail to add but most of the parts are already built and painted, I just needed the engine bay painted before I could continue. More progress will be very soon to follow. I also have to move the BOV over since it is hitting the distributer, other than that it is coming along nicely.

I have but this one on the back burner for the past few weeks because I noticed a little more body work needed than I originally thought. I was so close to painting the car (so I thought) and then just got frustrated and picked up some of my less custom kits to mess with for a while. I will pick up the project again soon but I am moving sp It will be around december maybe when I post more progress, thanks for following the project as I will finish it sometime in the near future I hope.

Well I am finally over the hump of modelers block I had for a while and I figured out the front end, now I just have to clean it up and move to the back bumper next since it to was a problem. Sorry the pic of the engine turned out so blurry I will definetely have a better one posted soon .

Wow, I can't beleive it has been over a year since I have posted progress on this one. Well I guess the new year has been an inspiration to finish some of my back burner projects with this one being at the top of that list. the doors are a bitch to fit right with the hinges in place but I want them to line up when they are closed so I can display it open or closed w/o worry. The rear bumper is a new one since the old one I had just did not work well because the vents were not even on both sides and it was way to much work to fix. Since the basic body kit is in place now all around all I really need to focus on is makeing it all even so I can paint it in the next fews months (I hope).

Well here are the pics of it as it stands right now:

Thanks alot, that is pretty much why I pulled this one out of hiding. I fell like I added more detail to this one than any other of my builds all though my current CRX build is becoming a close rival IMO.

I can't believe you put a supercharge and a turbo charger on it looks cool although IMO too much for a 4banger looks cool none the less I was thinkin bout makin a twin turbo hatch with big azz t4 turbos combining cylinders 1 and 4 and 2 and 3, that'll spool quick, prob no real bottem end power though so you gotta add the super charger haha nevermind all this junk I said, cool car I like the bodykit also

I am kind off on the same page as you but I wanted to try something Different with this bumper so when it is done hopefully it will look as sweet. I thought of makeing another rear bumper like the first one but just had to try the one I went with (modified from '93 Civic tuner kit).

Wow! Great job with the body work, the RHD conversion is great, and the supercharger looks fantastic! Is the radiator scratchbuilt or just modified?

It's just modified for the hood latch, the rad support is already molded to the body..... the REX I am building has a scratchbuilt rad support.
