Carbon Fiber DTM Pics- Its blows a 911 off it socks!

MASSIVE TYPE IV · Post by **MASSIVE TYPE IV** » Tue Sep 07, 2004 10:55 am

Anxiously awaited! Super strong, super light, and super awesome looking! I'll install it on an engine and get pics ASAP! I'm also going to have Joe make C/F surround tins as well for the complete install to be 100% composite! Imagine this sucker with the serpentine arrangement!

Now, who wants one???? Speak up ASAP!

I'll have price differences posted on the site as soon as we see how much extra work the C/F adds to making the shrouds complete with vanes and etc.

Colors will be available. They will be Red and black, yellow and black, green and black, blue and black and maybe even orange and black. The backing plate pictured is made from aluminized fiberglass. The material is very hard for Joe to get and I may only use it for my personal cars- guess will see what he can find on sourcing it elsewhere.

Looks great - here's a link to a site that might be a source for the aluminized carbon fiber stuff if Joe doesn't get it from them already.

What about offering the buyer the option of a backing plate in a different colour.... Same with the surroud tin. Could create some nice combo's...

I want one, but am putting money aside and am planning next year to ask about an engine

Cya,

Thats a possibility for sure.... Good idea.

The more custom it gets and the more time it takes the more expensive it is!

jake, you know i am in. will be talking with you as testing and approval happens. i will already be making my sealing tin in c/f in a few weeks. can the shroud be swapped with the engine in the car (late model)?

Wow Jake,
That truly is a work of art. Absolutely beautiful! Depending on what the price tag ends up being, I am definitely interested in having you install one on my massIVe motor. Will it be available in the same color as the one that you have displayed in the obove photos?

Jake , you know I'm in for one. since our last conversation I was bumed that you said the CF DTM wouldn't be available , I assume this has changed. Seriously sign me up for one and let me know how much the deposit is and I get it out asap. Oh yeah I want good old black carbon fiber.
