After completing the build on his first SKECHY RX3 Sedan (Click HERE for feature article), self-confessed perfectionist Danny was never 100% happy with the car. Whilst everything on the car was outstanding inside and out, it still wasn't a complete ground up build starting from a bare shell. 


What Danny wanted was a completely brand new car and when he saw George's freshly painted RX3 Sedan shell come into our workshop, negotiations were made to purchase the car. Danny had one condition though, all of the mechanical work had to be completed by PACMAN himself. 


As with all of our ground up builds every component is either brand new or refurbished with George starting by installing brand new suspension. 


With the H/Duty Radiator & Oil Cooler combo, H/Duty Intercooler, 16" Termo fan and Suspension installed, Our in-house auto electrician, Scibbo made a start on the wiring the car from front to back. 


Dynamat sound deadener was installed to help eliminate noise & heat ensuring Danny can fully enjoy that sweet bridgeport brap while driving.


Next up George Installed the freshly built series 6 13B Bridgeport engine with our High Output 110 amp Alternator and Multi Rib pulley kit already bolted on. 


Supplying the boost to the 13B powerplant is the popular Honeywell Garrett GT51R Turbocharger regulated by a Turbosmart Pro-Gate50 Wastegate and plumb back BOV.


Anything that could be powder coated in the engine bay was coated in Matt black giving it a clean crisp look. 


Feeding the power to the H/Duty 9" Diff is one of our race proven 9 second Jatco 3-speed transmissions kept cool with a trans cooler also mounted under the car. 
 

Keeping this street weapon fuelled up with E85 is a Triple pump Fuel Tank & In-tank Pump combo and regulating the fuel pressure is a Turbosmart FPR-2000.


With most of the car complete it was time to send it over to X-Trim Motor Trimming where Luke and his team turned out another immaculate interior adorned in custom white leather. 


Once back from X-Trim our electrician, Scibbo set about installing the gauges along with the 7” MicroTech LTC Pro Dash mounted with one of our Moulded Dash Pods. 

Taking care of the shifting duties is a B&M Black Diamond Composite X Shifter which has been made to look like it comes standard on the car thanks to Luke from X-Trim. 

Helping to keep this beast under control on the streets while giving it a tough stance is a pair of Mickey Thompson P235/60R15 Et Street tyres which have been mounted onto a set of RC Components 15 x 8 Hammer-S Double beadlock wheels. To give the wheels that Pac touch we have machined the Beadlock with Pac Racing and the centre caps with our Rotor logo. 

On the front is a set of RC Components 15 x 3.5 Hammer-S Front runner wheels with Mickey Thompson 24x5.00R15 Sportsman S/R tyres. 

With his car completed just the way he wanted, Danny is now enjoying cruising it for a while before he gets back into drag racing, looking to make his mark on our #PACSTREETKINGS leader board.  

 

The car is now run in and it has already been back in for a power tune, check out the video here.
