A project car updates
Progress so far, partial body parts installed to rush for ECU tuning. Unfortunately, the car failed to start due to the fuel pump wiring problem. Hope can solve the problem as soon as possible.
As you noticed, the Mazda Speed GTC front bumper was removed and sold to Kuala Lumpur. Decided to use RE-Amemiya Front bumper instead.
Front view of the car. Really cant wait to see the car in action though!
Yo, Happy New Year! My first post of Year 2012.
Lack of updates about my project car, picture? Not much.. just a couple of them
good news is
Week 1 Progress…. RE-Amemiya AD GT kit…
Week 2…. The Body…
Week 3. Partial Installation…
PROFESSIONAL PAINT JOB. No wonder need to wait for so LONG!!! FINGERS CROSSING!!! Cant wait to get it on the road with RE-Amemiya body-kit.
Not forgetting to tell you that, I found a secret recipe which suitable for the Track Car… The ENDLESS 6POT Brake Kit. Should I go for it? Gonna need a deep pocket for this recipe… SUPER LATE BRAKE when attacking the first corner of Sepang International Circuit.
DROOLING when the first time I m looking at it.
In my previous post of FD3S track machine, i mentioned that my track machine still got a couple of things need to be modified.
Oil cooler is one of the list (the car only has 1 oil cooler for time being), if you are EVO, SKYLINE owner, your car probably only has one oil cooler even you car running more than 300hp but Rotary engine need two because is running hot in term of water temperature and oil temperature.
well, I managed to secure an used set of HKS Twin Oil Cooler Kit from Japan yesterday.
Check out the image of the item!!!
HKS twin oil coolers come with air duct too
another closer look of the oil cooler.
Check this out, this is one of the Japanese’s FD3S project car with major HKS parts fully loaded.
To compare the image below, which is my track machine engine bay, i think i still need more money to burn!
feel shame to post up my track machine engine bay actually.
Just to compare how far I need to achieve that!
Reason to build this machine is for Time Attack at Sepang International Circuit.
Still got a couple of minor parts need to be installed before go for a test.
Anyhow, I m still looking for the Tyre Sponsorship and Mechanical Sponsorship for this machine.
If you are interested to sponsor anything to this car, Do contact me by leaving a message here.

In next post, perhaps I will write about what are the parts installed into this machine. Stay Tuned.
Lack of updates recently.
The machine still in the mudguard shop for body kit readjustment.
Anyhow, will install Mazda Speed Bumper with custom made lips.
Due to the large size of Trust Twin Oil Cooler kit, we failed to install 2 of RE-Amemiya Bumper, either re-locate the oil cooler or replace the bumper, I chosen to use Mazda Speed Bumper.
A couple of images for different angle.
Forgot to mention, recently I m just built a RX7 Time Attack Machine.
Looking for Tyre Sponsorship & Mechanical Sponsorship for coming Sepang Event.
Just received this rare items from mail box, RE-Amemiya Sleek Light Kit H11 Type.
Bought this headlight from Japan because this item is hard to get from any Malaysia half-cut shop.
Will send this item to workshop very soon for the project car.
As usual, writing the same opening again, not significant progress of the car.
Installed the AD-GT kit into the car (6 pieces FRP to make the car slightly wide)
Planning to mimic Initial-D’s Project-D Mazda RX7 FD3S if budget permitted.
So, I m still looking for Genuine RE-Amemiya Hood and RE-Amemiya GT-Wing to replace the current knight-sport FRP hood and Auto-Select aluminum GT-Wing.
The car in the paint shop currently. Yellow or Pearl White? Please leave your comment. Thanks!
The rear view of the car, too much colors!!! Yellow, Black, White, Silver & Blue.. Ops
Also, I need to modify the fuel cover to make it have the same level as the body kit.
My next plan after the paint work, will be ECU tuning.
Bought HKS EVC 5 boost Controller for the tuning purpose to avoid my engine blow due to over boost.
Man, this device is not cheap. No choice but purchased a new one since this is a new model.
Well, some plans were changed last month due to a buyer called up to purchase the single turbo kit and inter-cooler which installed in the car. After deeply consideration, decided to uninstall the one in the car and replace with GReddy Inter Cooler Kit model “R-SPL HG Type 32″ which you can check out the image in this post too.
The Type 32 is a very huge inter cooler, we need to do some minor “surgery” to make sure the front inter cooler fit well with front bumper. Cut the Genuine RE-Amemiya Bumper which cost me RM6000? No way, decided to source from a friend for RE-Amemiya Bumber N1-05.
Notice something? Just installed the AD GT kit front fender.
The inter cooler is huge, no choice but do minor surgery to make sure it fits well

Hehe, managed to secure knight sport bonnet.
Latest Progress of the project car.
Almost Done! All hoses connected each other.
What I hope is not crazy scream of this engine… (that’s the reason to replace the bridge port engine)
Close up image for the Turbine, Pulley, Blow Off Valve & Bubble Tank.
Uninstalled the RE-Amemiya (RE雨宮) AD body part from the car, so I got the excuse to install RE雨宮 AD-GT kit at last!
Also, Kelvar Rear Diffuser installed finally (no KIDDING), and replaced with stock rear bumper .
Another rear view of the car. Planning to replace the door as well since I m just bought a 99Spec Half Cut engine recently.
OK, Check out the video….
Finally……..
What’s Next? Dyno and ECU Tune of course!
Latest progress of the project car.
Please do not confuse, this engine no longer bridge port rotary engine.
MSD coils, injectors, turbine, pulley were installed
Piping re-installed
Progress today!! Notice the different? Blow off and tank were installed too.
What’s next?
Downpipes will be the next task for the mechanic.
