I bought this car as a bare shell, no struts or wheels, no interior, engine or driveline. I trailered it home and began building, transferring most of the parts from my first SRT4 build on over to this shell but also building it over time.
As it sits now it has a fully built engine, twinscroll tubular big turbo kit with a S258sx-R, a built transmission with billet input shaft and straight cut 1,2,3,4 gears. It has a billet 300m intermediate shaft and hanger bearing. Its on coilovers, billet lca bushings, ST Sway bars. My brother in law and I built and installed the 10pt rollcage in my home garage as well. All work on the car has been done in my home garage as well.
Its come a long way as it won best in class at Driven (Canada's largest travelling car show) 2025.
The car has made 530whp on pump gas and we are currently in progress of tuning it on E95, but it should be north of 600, closer to 700whp by the time we're done.
The goal of this car is to try and run a high 9 or bottom 10 in the 1/4 mile. We want to compete and have fun.
I wish I would have had a more defined vision and more paitence when starting out on this car and that I would have done certain things sooner and with more confidence. The car is on revision #4 and is finally extremely close to exactly how I want it.
