Ford Mustang and Rich Evans design.. No comments yet

We don’t know why, but this Ford Mustang is an incredible car itself, but for some reason, it always gets his attention.
Today we’ve spotted another Ford Mustang on the net, and it was seriously customized by Rich Evans Design .

This ride rocks really! What a beast! We all love this car, but how they build it, I guess a lot of men out there should like to drive this one!
Rich Evans really made this car look like the road devil :D. No doubt about that!

We will show you a couple of these images, but for the rest of this gallery we ask you to visit his website.

Intense Motorsports: G35/350Z performance parts 1 comment

Intense Motorsports is leader in G36/350Z performance parts in the USA. And they showing it!
They have made a great project, and they are thrilled with it! Time for us to come into action and show it you as well :D
Read the complete story below and also have a nice look on the images and video :D

” This is Intense Motorsports’ latest project. As the leader in G35/350Z performance parts and accessories, we were not content on having just one platform to showcase our capabilities. As with our widebody 350Z, we set out to build this car with a specific goal in mind. The G35 was built to draw attention. We wanted to build a car that can win at the shows, perform on the street, and draw a crowd anywhere it went.

The core of the project build is the new VeilSide Fortune G35 Widebody Kit. As VeilSide’s #1 Distributor/Dealer in the United States, they were the obvious choice. We have built many widebody cars in the past, but this is one of the best quality kits we have ever seen. All the body pieces were pre-drilled for ease of mounting and fitment. Even the widebody front fenders and rear quarter panels came molded with inner fenders liners.

Next we decided that an original color had to be chosen. After many changes, we decided on a shocking “Intense Money Green” 3-stage custom color. The color has many different dimensions that change depending on the lighting conditions. This is definitely a color that has to be seen in person to be appreciated. The bodywork was flawlessly performed by George Husar and Francisco Diaz at Intense Motorsports.

Next, we enlisted Vincent at iForged Performance Alloys for the wheels. Again we wanted to push the envelope and shock the G35 community. Since 20″ wheels were the norm, we decided that 22″ wheels were going to be the new standard set by Intense Motorsports. After careful consideration and the helpful advice from the iForged guys, we decided on 22″x9.5″ and 22″x11″ iForged Custom wheels. These wheels are not available on iForged website but available directly from Intense Motorsports. The color chosen was Anthracite with a high polish lip (3″ in the front and 6″ in the rear).

To improve the ride and stance, Moben Sport Suspension coilover were chosen for there high quality and comfortable ride. The coilovers offer 36 way adjustment and full height adjustability. IntensePower.com rear camber arms were used to align the new stance.

The interior features custom upholstery work from 1st Upholstery in Scottsdale Arizona and custom carbon fiber work from Intense Motorsports. A show-winning stereo is in the works for the 2008 show season. VeilSide once again was called upon to supply their new Kevlar VSD-1 reclining seats (only pair in the U.S.).

Finally, no Intense Motorsports project would be complete without some muscle behind it. We used this vehicle to develop the new turbo kit with PowerLab. We made and impressive 653rwhp with the GT35R and and 706rwhp with the GT37R. These are both dual ball bearing turbos used in conjunction with a Tial 44mm wastegate and Tial 50mm Blow-off Valve. We were able to stuff a 4″ thick core behind the front bumper along with a 3″ downpipe. Look for this new turbo kit to be released in early 2008. The kit is designed to be the best single turbo kit on the market.

After the dyno and street testing was done on the GT35R and GT37R, we decided to install a 76S turbo. These are what we commonly use on our high horsepower street Supras. This required a few minor changes to the standard PowerLab Turbo Kit and back to the dyno it went. With the new modifications done, we made a record shattering 906rwhp and 730ft. lbs. of torque. Changes included the addition of custom header/crossover pipe for added clearance and a new 3.5″ downpipe. Also changed was the addition of larger 1200cc injectors to supply the necessary fuel for the octane hungry 76S turbo. Power was then limited to the then slipping ACT clutch. Look for new dyno/track updates once we upgrade the clutch, axles and NHRA legal roll cage.”

Here some nice images :D Clink on it for a bigger view!
