DirtBikeGuy Posted September 16, 2014 Author Posted September 16, 2014 Its getting there, had a discussion with our fab guy yesterday and told him it has to be ready for Halloween. Quote
DirtBikeGuy Posted October 27, 2014 Author Posted October 27, 2014 So the car is now together and running. Its off to heads up performance for a new tune and to have the wire harness extended in order to mount all the electronics in the rear wing. Once we get the dyno work done then its off to test run the car to make sure everything is in the right place and move anything that needs to be moved before going off to powder coat. Hoping its will be done before T-day if everything works out. Quote
dunefreak Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Great job! Can't wait to see some pics of it tearing it up in the sand. Quote

FireKracker Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 My first dog is buried right under where it is parked in those pics Did anyone else wonder what this means? Quote
DirtBikeGuy Posted October 29, 2014 Author Posted October 29, 2014 My first dog is buried right under where it is parked in those pics There used to be a ditch there so you must have worked extra hard as a kid to dig that deep of a hole... Did anyone else wonder what this means? My parents built on his families land. Quote
DirtBikeGuy Posted November 17, 2014 Author Posted November 17, 2014 We have been working on some graphic and paint designs. Should come out pretty sweet when its done... Quote
DirtBikeGuy Posted October 6, 2016 Author Posted October 6, 2016 Figured I would give this thread a little update... Here is a list of a few of the things we changed up/added: -Custom fuel tank to allow for more room for the rear diff box -more sturdy motor mounts -power steering and tilt wheel -moved radiator up front for better cooling -added oil cooler -raised shift handle -added tom pro alternator As of now just fixing up a few voltage issues and then off to CHP for a vin tag and hopefully be out at G for Halloween...

dunefreak Posted December 1, 2016 Posted December 1, 2016 Have you taken it out for a shakedown yet? How did it go? Quote
DirtBikeGuy Posted December 1, 2016 Author Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) 1 hour ago, dunefreak said: Have you taken it out for a shakedown yet? How did it go? Took it out to Glamis for Halloween and blew out the jeffco diff box. Got that all fixed up and took it back out for Vets day and dropped a valve in the motor and put a rod through the bottom of the case.. So had to order a complete crate motor and going to build it back from there... Still debating on scraping the busa set up, for a subi and 2d, but its tough to come to terms with dropping another 15-20 grand on a drive train. Edited December 1, 2016 by DirtBikeGuy Quote
dunefreak Posted December 1, 2016 Posted December 1, 2016 Aw man that's too bad. Sorry to hear that. Busas have always been super reliable for me. Quote
raspadoo Posted December 1, 2016 Posted December 1, 2016 Damn Brutha you guys are having zero luck with that ride. I know its not you families style but could you ease off on the boost and get rid of that gearbox.I know reverse is handy but….. Quote

Ya the new motor should be a little more tame... the gear box issue was the same thing that was causing problems back when we came out for the day with you, just didnt fix it the right way i guess. I did see though that RPM makes a reverse box that has the same specs so if we have any more issues we may change to that one and keep the jeffco as a back up Quote
