The Project Pad

So, when's the funeral for the person that hit you?

Hey Martin,

Sorry to hear this when you called earlier. We can fix that no problem.

It could have been worse. It looks pretty cosmetic so far.....

I can't believe this happended ,especially when you've been working you ass of
for the last 2 weeks getting this ready for Carlisle.

Good luck with your tune.

Cheers,

Craig

:(

Sorry to see that, Martin. Here's to a quick fix. :cheers:

Damn looked sooooo good last night.....

Gutted...... :(

I'm sorry to hear about this Martin. I read the headline and my jaw dropped. :(

I hope everything works out.

Wow, that is insane. At least you'll be blown away with the newfound power after Brady's done with it! I'm guessing 350-370whp

DAMN! Just saw the pictures man and I gotta say, that freaking sucks. :(

This is a sneak peak of the goodness that was today



numbers????????!!!!!!!!!?????????

I'll let Martin divulge the results, but I'll say this: when he first drove it after it was tuned, he couldn't stop giggling for at least 2 minutes solid! It runs well.

And Craig, holy crap does that exhaust sound evil! At high revs, it's like nothing I've ever heard. Evil = good, BTW.

Thanks Brady,

I really wish I could have been there today!!!!!!!

Martin it sounds like you had a really good day. I'm happy for you,
especially after your accident on Friday.

come on I need to see the numbers.............................................................!!!

Carlisle her we come!!!

Cheers,


Craig.

Nothing like a bit of good with the bad!! I feel for you on the rear end. Like Craig said, it could have been much worse, but it has still been hit and that just sucks. Good luck on getting it back to acceptable to your high standard. The car looks and sounds great!! I am really interested in the 3071 numbers as I am in the process of swapping in a 3071 billet turbo into my Urq. ?????

God damn I cant wait to see/hear this thing at Carlisle.

Maybe I could even score a ride...?

Sorry to see this happen on a really nice car. The insurance company for the other guy, is really really not going to like the cost of replacing that bumper or the repairs costs. Stick it to them. Maybe the ass will drive better once he finds out how much his insurance is going to increase. Maybe enough he can't afford to have a car at all. Can only hope.

Thank you Brady for all the hard work... I am thrilled with the result, Craig, you will love it!!!
The car is so light it feel like there is no lag at all... just gets up and go... and the noise!

With all the excitement I did not remember the final numbers but 320whp and 380wtq rings a bell, Brady, you can correct me please.

Here is how to get in toruble with freshly tuned car.. here is Michael Wack demonstrating...
Now I know how Craig felt!!

The numbers themselves do not describe how brutal this car is... it will take time to get used to it..

You're very welcome!

Torque is right on, but power was 336.

awesome results Martin! the car looks fantastic...

seeing some of the work here (and not meaning to hijack your thread) I have a few questions:

1. Assuming Shannon is powered by the stock AAN ecu is it safe to assume Brady can custom tune it? I've got me a Holset coming up in a week or two and am currently running the 034 Stage 1+ chip that will need a touch up with the new turbo...
2. I can't find anybody in Ottawa that does IC piping (alu, bending etc) - does Craig do that and where is he located?

oh - ice rckt and I can pay a visit to the suicidal maniac that rear-ended your girl...you don't mess with family!

That car looks awesome, better still with the Euro front and rear bumpers. I've always felt the North American versions killed the car, they almost look aftermarket, they stick out so much.

Sorry about the rear-ender, but could have been worse. When you get her straightened out, I would be inclined to delete the North American reflectors below the tails. Makes the rear end look pretty busy, seeing as the Euro bumper already has them in place.

1. I think Brady can anser #1 directly
2. I used prebent piping from JRP, I bought a J pipe in 2.25 and cut it up as needed.

No need for violence, it's only a car.. :wink:

Thanks for all the comments, I think I can get her back to gorgeous in no time.

Cheers

Congrats on the new found power Martin! 8)

Considering how much work you guys have into these cars, perhaps you and Craig should start thinking about remote kill switches. Just in case.

Amazing work across the board and props on "No need for violence, it's only a car.. :wink:"

That genius who hit you will get theirs, karma's a bitch...

Wish I could have seen this car as it passed through Ottawa. Assuming you hung around for a while. On the upside I'm in Cali right now and ran into some guys from the 914world.com forum . 914s =awesome

Couple more for you.

Thanks, can you please email me some of the plots so I can post here.

Cheers

Took the bumper off... few pics of the damage under.











Thoughts, suggestions welcome!

use a hammer....if it doesn't work - use a bigger hammer...if that doesn't work - the problem is electrical...
