My 2006 Wuerth Motorsports Build

[Greg Rakes]

Careful with those Tatum spindles. The billet is nice but the geometry is not the best. you may need to change some things around or deal with a little more bump steer.

that was my worry too. i actually saw a set on another wuerth car. hopefully only have to modify the tie rods.

And Lastly some randoms of other Wuerth cars.

So my buddy built the first 2 seater, we kind of built them at the same time. he did a nissan vq35 w/091.



Here are some pics of the big pre runner Steve built.

This is so cool to see!! I wonder where all of his jigs ended up. I heard Wicked Sand Cars or Amplified Performance or one of those companies ended up with them. Not sure if that was true or not.

Interesting to see the very early cars. the rear shock mounts, and didnt realize until seeing these photos that some used bump stops!

What year were these photos taken?

I added the air bumps to my car. They worked pretty good, car was setup good for just the wife and I and the bumps helped when there was 4 people in the car.

Well per usual I was looking for more things to mess with, so decided to modify my existing intake pipe. I had been running a simple 90 degree coupler with a piece of 4" aluminum tube and a smaller oiled filter up until now. The filter got dirty so quick, and practically had to clean it every day.

So decided to make/modify an intake pipe to fit a 6637 filter where the original fuel cell was. Forgot how huge these filters were. Ran them in my 7.3 days!

Ordered an outerwear for it as well.

But it fits nice and tucked up within the cage and looks nice! welded on a tab to use as a mount for the intake pipe. Gave it the ol' VHT rattle can treatment.
