Senza pari texas mile rx7

[SENZA PARI]

Thanks everyone for the kind words!

Looks an awesome build, one big ass turbo on there. Is this the current condition of the car or is there more to come?

Only dislike is the blended bumpers / wings / skirts, I don't like the overly smooth look and if you ever crack it slightly its fucked, but given you've done this yourself I don't think the latter matters so much.

There is much more to come. The body and undertay will be finished sometime this winter (fingers crosssed) and driven in its current state for a year or so until we replace the Eccentric shaft, up the fuel, and crank it up some more. Color scheme will be black on black (black chrome wheels)

Cosmetically it isn't my favorite either, however the body was done in the name of aero, so all seams and creases were eliminated where possible.

I've developed a response to seeing your name

Fun.

Thanks! Can't tell you what a compliment that is...

so much work, so few pictures.

Here are a few of our Flickr albums... these are from the past year. There is quite a bit that isn't captured, yes... we only started documenting everything starting maybe a year ago:-/

wow, i just look to your galleries on flickr, your fabrication and welds are just insane!
only to look at your weldings i am in for subscription!
keep up the good work!

[electricalbox]

Welding is very awesome... please keep this updated, such an amazing build!

[Obscevator]

fuck dude you seriously got skills man... the other prohject is very awesome too... both are in my top 5 greatest cars ever and they're getting VIP treatment now only the fenders are following the tires way down too low but hey that's my taste! the craftsman ship is very high rated here! well done!

[Heist]

envy your work. keep it up always intriguing to look at what you're doing.

[dropped.]

Why would you do this?

Why would you do this?

Because its his car??? Youve got 8 posts and already comin in here with a shifty face...

Thank you! As for the fenders its all about keeping the air out of the wheel wells, more function than form with the 7... the Z will be more form:-)

Why would you do this?

No worries... we did this because normal isn't exciting. Wheelspin through 120 mph is huge fun, but also rediculously scary in some situations. Big rubber is needed to tame this, yet big rubber looks a little silly without a flare... boxy flares are terrible for top speed aero, so they're as smooth as possible. It all has a purpose in some form or another...
I'll agree with you that these pics make the body seem a little ehhh, but the end result will clean all of that up. It may not be for everyone, but it will do exactly what it's made for very well.

That was the perfect response. Not rude, but got your point across very well and clearly. I'm a huge fan of this build btw!

[Obscevator]

Well you explained it to me perfectly now I see why the wheel arches are so low. function over form is a good thing when putting down those numbers! I'll be folowing this!

[SENZA PARI]

I'll have more pics of the 7's progress soon, but in the meantime here are a few photos from the various 20B 3-rotor builds that have been keeping us busy...

As most of our products do, life starts out as a 3D model in SolidWorks. The amount of guesswork and headaches you save your self is unreal. Many hassles can be worked out long before any metal is cut. So onto the intake manifold.... the customer wanted 750 on low boost, and 900 plus when cranked up. Having built numerous intake manifolds for high horsepower cars, we know the amount of power that can be unlocked just by ditching the stock manifold. You'll hear it in forums all over..."So and so made this much power on the stock manifold, it works fine"... It works fine if you want to starve your motor. The stock manifold had to go.

The radius of the runners is much more gradual than stock, which has a sharp transition into at the motor. The runners were also kept longer to keep the torque numbers higher.

Onto the hotside of things. The downpipe was made using laser cut pie cuts. Each section is also etched at both 0 and 180 degrees, so you're able to clock each piece just so.

Tacked and polished:

The exhaust manifold. Again, starts life out as a 3D model from which each piece is later cut out to exact spec.

After intital tack, each runner is broken down and welded independently, capped and purged.

The inside of each runner looks something like this...

Once each runner is complete, back into the flange they go.

4" exhaust out the back, along with custom trans-brace for the T-56 6 speed.

And the finished product... the car now goes back to the tuner for accesories and fuel components.

Not sure how I feel about the body. Keep up the orgasmic engine work though.

Coming from someone who does a little tig welding, you are amazing and must have alot of time in just the welding.
