StaSIS Engineering Turbo Kit Proven with our Audi A3

Publishsed by Dan on October 1st, 2008 | Posted in Project Cars | No Comments »

Listen to the jet sound of the Vivid Racing Audi A3 on our Mustang Dyno as the Stasis Engineering turbo kit rips past the 300 horsepower mark.  The Stasis turbo kit takes the stock 2.0T to the next level like the European S3.  In conjunction with our other parts from Agency Power, K&N, and Neuspeed, this A3 pounds through the DSG gears at an incredible rate.  Stay tuned for our next modification with a Forge front mount intercooler!  Check out the YouTube video of our A3 in action.

Project 997TT Adds New MAShaw GT2 Wing and TechArt Side Skirts

Publishsed by Dan on September 26th, 2008 | Posted in Project Cars | No Comments »

Vivid Racing’s Project 997TT is undergoing some new changes to keep it looking fresh.  While the car has been kept on the download during our prototyping of the new induction system, we thought we would post up some sneak pics of the new MAShaw GT2 rear wing and TechArt side skirts being installed.  The MAShaw GT2 rear wing is a COMPLETE replica of the OEM 997GT2 wing.  MAShaw includes a new wiring harness and the factory brake light fits just like stock.  There is NO modifications for the underside needed.  The fan bolts in place and the scoops connect to the stock airbox inlets.  We hope to have everything set for some nice pictures Monday morning.  Once we get our new induction kit released, stay tuned for our 800HP kit in progress :)

Check out all the Project 997TT project pictures here.

Blood + Sweat + Tears = One incredible Nissan 350z. ‘Nuff said.

The creation of a show stopping, pavement pounding vehicle requires great care, attention to detail and that certain touch of style. Like a special meal, it’s a delicate recipe that if altered or unbalanced, can leave a sour taste in anyone’s mouth. Give the tools of the trade to that one proper chef though, who has just that proper touch and a true masterpiece has been created.

No, this isn’t a blog about Vivid Racing’s expansion into the world of the culinary arts, this post is about one of our customer’s by the name of Wes Banasan. I was contacted by Wes back in June to inquire for certain ‘parts’ that will remain unmentioned until further notice.  Wes is a member of famed Team Emotion.  If you’re into this scene, and haven’t heard or seen their presence, yes WEST COASTERS, THIS MEANS YOU TOO. It’s seriously time to wake up. They’ve been here, and aren’t leaving any time soon.

Wes’s 350Z is the real deal .His car can be seen on the cover of this current month’s import tuner.  Sporting some of Japan’s finest, his 350Z is netting over 4xx ponies with the use of Power Enterprise’s twin turbo kit.  Massive stopping power is provided by Project Mu’s front and rear big brake kits. He’s also sporting, the now ultra-rare Do-Luck widebody kit. There is much much more to this car, so feast your eyes. This car is definitely a dream crusher. Wes has a very nice list of things to come,  to STAY TUNED WITH VIVID RACING!

For any questions regarding 350Z parts or inquiries, please feel free to contact me, tony@vividracing.com.

PS - Thanks again for your business Wes.

-Tony
