OK this is my baby. A 1989 turbo FC3S import. The car only had minor things done when i bought it, JIC Coilovers, 16" Alloys.

Soon after getting it i had replaced a few things, like a pod filter, oil filter, fuel filter, ignition leads, spark plugs, CD player and speakers, full custom exhaust (3" to twin 2.5")

Then the motor blew on my way to work on day... all six apex seals smashed on the stock computer, boost & and while going to work. I took the car to Rotary Motorsport in Brendale, Ben & the boys did a fantastic job and continue to do so everytime i take my car there, Thanks Team.

Ben had a fresh import motor series 4 that he had planned for his own project, but thankfully sold to me. He dowelled & ported it and added the microtech lt10s, 4x bosch coils, series 6 side and oil seals, 3mm racing beat apex seals, high flow turbo, K&N vortex pod, lightened flywheel...
It pushed out 286rwhp on 14psi at 6500rpm on the Rotary Motorsport dynolog dyno. This was without a boost controller and on a standard fuel pump, resulting in the motor leaning out. Therefore Ben could only reach 6500rpm and had to stop there.

With the bosch 040 & boost controller i am hoping for the 300+ with and injector upgrade.

Update*

Rotary motorsport did the fuel system upgrade all but the 1600cc injectors are in. I installed a front mount intercooler and a new Direct Clutch button plate as the organic plate was getting overpowered. Tim North of TNRacing installed a HKS electronic boost controller and we were now running 17psi. I never got it back on the dyno after all this but did do alot of on the real world tuning with TNRacing! the car was well up on it's last dyno figure and it showed where it counted...at the track. I got a 12.5 @ 116mph. down from the last time i was there 13.08 @ 110mph so the power figures have been boosted.
I have a few more things to do to the car so it is once again off the road... I have it ready for a body kit and respray after a few little imperfections were bugging me.
***Currently under constuction again***
