Just a general comment. I’ve driven many times to the Le Mans 24 race. One year I camped in the grounds of a chateau about 10 miles from the track (GM team were staying there too). It’s a tradition that thousands upon thousands of cool cars drive to Le Mans & many many camp (over 200k Brits drive every year). The selection of cars is are always pretty impressive. This particular year a whole gang of Ultima’s were at the same chateau which was accessed by very long straight roads. The sound of this gang coming back to the chateau from the track was absolutely epic & not dissimilar to camping right next to the race track. If you’ve never heard the 24 hour race cars at night, you haven’t lived. They sound just like hell & fury screaming on their way. The Ultima’s always stayed in my mind as epic simply because of the noise that heralded their arrival. I’m a lightweight Lotus car fan, but those cars were truly menacing. Enjoy the car when it’s done!
Building the car is only 50% of what you have done. Director, editor, writer, cameraman really amazing. Binge watched faster than any scripted series. Thanks for the content.
@@taylorrobinson4900 If he sticks a tire on it and takes it down the track do you have any guess on what it will run? I bet if it's on a tire it will run some 8.4-8.6s at 170ish
Wow i just came across this channel what a awesome build. Why haven’t i seen this before been showing all my buddies no ones seen it. Cant wait for more. Love this build. Sir you have excellent taste.
This dude has waaaaaayyyyy more patience than me . I'd be working on that thing 24-7 . IV Redbull drip . I wouldn't be able to sleep knowing I've got a supercar in my garage just waiting to be driven . I literally couldn't handle the waiting . Props to you . Cant wait to see it rolling .
@@UltimateUltimaRS I see a black one most weekends in the summer blasting past my golf club. Last year it decided to overheat one time and pulled into our parking area. The noise didn't go down well with those teeing off on the 1st hole 😂 but I loved it. But then I used to sometimes drive my Cobra replica to the club and now have an Aston V8 Vantage with modified exhaust so I guess I'm not golf pc myself.
Just came across your videos today and I have to say.. You have done a phenomenal job with this car! Incredible patience and ability to advance your learning as you go with each part of the process! Much respect to you my friend! I look forward to seeing how the rest of the build comes along!
Such a great build this is turning out to be! I literally stood up off my couch and waved my fist in the air when I saw the engine with the headers on.
@@UltimateUltimaRS Don't stop when you have your car running!! We would love to be along for the ALL rides and track outings your going to do! Loving this whole series!
Good on ya! I am so thrilled for you. You are doing something that 99% of guys could never do and 100% want to! Building their own car! Great video and job!
With your 3D printed parts where they bolt on, add some alloy tube into the bolt holes to stop crushing and cracking. Just trim them very slightly short to all pressure on the part and gasket
FOR ONCE! - it's so nice to see a TH-camr working with an engine hoist/crane that actually has well-lubricated wheel bearings and spindles so that they're not having to kick and knock it into place!! Although that could be temporary given that it's brand new!!
Amazing build brother. I got lucky when I came across your video. Mad respect 🙏 to your skill. Your Ultima RS is looking incredible. Your attention to detail is definitely on another level. I'm really looking forward to seeing your future videos and one day see her run. Thank you for sharing this amazing build and your journey building her. Be safe and please keep sharing.
In the home stretch now! I know exactly what you mean when you said it doesn't look like you got much done on camera, but all the progress now is going to be incremental. Just seeing the canopy on after the first several videos was a huge leap forward. Can't wait to see the final product.
Absolutely pumped for start up vid! Great progress and thank you for sharing these videos for us. It's really awesome just being able to see what all that goes into building a kit car...badass!
I have find your channel and so I have see all episode directly. Really good work with accurate and fastener. The episodesare well done. In my country we can not drive a car like this in open road no chance for me.
Jeremy at fasterproms is awesome. I'm subbed to all those guys, JH, cleetus, fasterproms, Cooper, boosted boiz, Emilio, and PFI speed. Will be very cool to see this on the dyno
I don't know if you are aware, but that wheel alignment gauge was invented on an Ultima GTR build, built by my son Nick and I. That is now his business. You may want to upgrade to the four-wheel system. I more recently built an Ultima Evo roadster as well. I have an orange RS on order, which should ship in a couple of months. That will have an LT5. Thanks for the great build videos!.
All right I feel the exact same way I don't remember when or how I stumbled across this build series either but I'm definitely glad I did not trying to make a bunch of jokes or have some type of skit or anything it's just to the point and all about the car build definitely digging it
Instead of using rags to stop the chains damaging the super charger, get a bit of flat bar stock or angle iron and drill a hole in each end, use it as a spreader bar for the chains. You have some short pieces of flat bar in the chain already, use these as the points to pick up the spreader bar, no chance of damage. You will have the engine in and out multiple times so it’s worth it 👍 @03:35 you can see the chain and flat plate/bolts slip on the rag.
to test the strength of the scrap air intake you printed you could run a chain through the center and around the legs of your hoist, get a digital 6600 lb scale to put between the top and the hook of the hoist, then you could see exactly the load rating it is showing.
Amazing effort, its not just a car, that is a work of art. I've got a question though, i design and work with 3D printers and printing a lot. The comments you mentioned about viewers commenting on your print are correct. I must say I'm really sceptical about any print or material holding out to the temps involved. I've a suggestion, print it then get that print cast and made out of aluminium or another metal. You really don't want to be working with melted carbon or whatever material it is your printing. As for the carbon material your printing. ( Can you please send me a link to the filament your using.) I've worked with similar products before. The possible reason your carbon print turned out like it did was the carbon filament wears out the printing nozels due to its courseness. If you've ordered new tips, make sure they are stainless or harder. And with that been said, you will need to up the extruder heat to compensate.
Oh yes, I'm printing using a hardened nozzle. The first attempt was with a .4mm nozzle and it kept getting clogged. It is printing now perfectly with a .6mm nozzle @ 260C.
CFR nylon is like 20-30 KSI which is basically the same strength as a mild aluminum. You will have no issues as long as you can keep temps reasonable. I would foil the outside of it or insulate somehow given how close you’re running to the Exhaust it should be kept cool from intake air being pulled through it but you definitely want to be keeping temps below 190F just to keep it from warping and fatiguing.
@@UltimateUltimaRS Just wanted to add on to my previous comment. There is a huge difference in the strength of injection molded nylon and FDM 3D printed nylon, carbon fiber or not. It may work and it may not but I wouldn’t put it to the test in this application. I don’t want to come off as negative because everything else about the build is fantastic and entertaining! I just don’t want this one little part to cost you a lot of time, money, and labor later.
3d printing is such a valuable tool for projects like this. Sure a cnc would be better... But 300 bucks vs 30k is such a better value proposition. Nylon is very strong and holds up to heat well. Not sure if this was carbon infused nylon but that is another option. Awesome build. This car is going to be nuts.
Great build! I would suggest placing some type of protection over the chassis etc when fitting up an engine like this. Very easy to chip paint and do minor damage with an engine swinging around. A couple of layers of cloth tape would be good to protect those chassis bars.
Coming along very nicely. A few tight tolerances but hopefully ok. Damn those headers are close to the fuel tanks - maybe add that gold film to your heat shields for added safety there? Looking forward to the start up. Great work man 👍
Just seen this and love what you are doing.....Can't wait to see her running.....Now if it was me I'd probably have used a NA Honda K20 4 cylinder built engine with around 300hp and if I needed more power I would probably supercharge it for at least 500hp. But having said that it's going to be sweet to see what your 1,0000hp LT5 will do to this machine.......Can't wait for the next video.
Glad you reached out to Fasterproms for your tuning! You could probably take that car there and meet ol' Cleeters. That would make for a huge video for your channel letting him drive that beast!
I wouldn't be able to sleep at night. My mind would be racing constantly thinking about next steps, what else I can do to make it better, and when I can do it. Would drive me nuts! I'm a wood worker so I basically do that any way but this would be extreme thinking all the time. Good job so far though, can't wait till it's done!
I've been that way since the start and just last weekend, my girlfriend told me I was sleep talking and mumbling about spark plugs. I thought it was hilarious.
The problem I had when I re-built my 1976 Alpine A110 was to rebuild from scratch the engine bay firewall...I used the british Morgan technic using wood(walnut) and heat shield wrap(sandwiched in two layers of thin aluminium(amazing results) ,I added 3 powerful extractor fans(on demand)with heat sensors and gages ,just so the car would never dictate me when I could use it (on hot days or super cold..!!)AC or not/also mobile windows are a must ,if you want to travel and daily your dream car(simple toll-both action..!!!) claustrophobia being the worst feeling ever ,without real fresh air....!!!!.........
Awesome vid man. And I commend you for being so patient in your build. I’m in a similar process of building a factory race bike form the ground up machining my own parts and sometimes I just want to get it done fast.... but building something one off can be challenging at times. I’m sure your videos don’t show the frustration at times! Lol also this is coming from a 27 year mechanic and shop owner! You got it dialed and you know your shit so good job!!!
@@UltimateUltimaRS Yes, I'm sure you'll be ok, built enough cars in the past so I prefer to watch others deal with these kinda problems these days though. I'm looking forward to seeing this finished though, you've done an awesome job and I've enjoyed watching this series.
Great update. Car is looking so sick. I have to say though.... surely you have to do something about the washer bottle 😂 Its like mad supercar with an ebay washer bottle. Paint it black or something!
Congrats 🎉 well done!👍🏻 specially doing it all by yourself maaan!! One thing, I do a lot of dirt and asphalt midget racing and QA1, Afco shocks that all of us run that the shocks be mounted with the shock body facing up. The dampeners are always wet with the shock oil that way!!
The Alcantara on top of the dash behind the center gauge on the left is bunching up along the seam. Don't get me wrong, the car is spectacular in every way, but that would drive me crazy right in my line of site. 1000hp!!! Is insane by the way.
@@UltimateUltimaRS I thought to myself, this guy is extremely detailed oriented and does such high quality work how does he miss that staring him in the face from behind the wheel. Thanks for acknowledging my concern, I can now sleep at night.👌 Again, fantastic work
Looks fantastic, nice job! One bit of criticism: I don't like that inlet to the SC, it looks very restrictive and turbulent. I would highly suggest flaring and ballooning it out on all sides (also focus on a smooth transition on the short side radius). Basically make it more of a tear drop shape to maximize volume, and again focus on a smooth radius into the SC, what you have there will not flow well IMO. Looking forward to the next update!
For your printed throttle body intake part you could make that top right hole a slot/fork instead so you could tighten it down since it doesn't look like you have clearance to get a screw in there?
Also if you’re having any raw metal surfaces you might want to invest in some Boeshield as an anticorrosive coating. It’s not like WD40 which smells and has a tackiness to it that attracts dust. It just puts a thin film that prevents corrosion.
The headers look sick. It's difficult to tell from the video, but front engine access looks tight. It's too bad there's not an access plate from the firewall like RRRRe does.

@@UltimateUltimaRS I’m looking to order an RS. Any regrets or things you would have ordered differently?

Basically make it more of a tear drop shape to maximize volume, and again focus on a smooth radius into the SC, what you have there will not flow well IMO.
Looking forward to the next update!
Great build so far, but I would use a separate reservoir for the clutch...clutch dust can create havoc with the break fluid
It does use a separate reservoir for the clutch :).
@@UltimateUltimaRS ...That's excellent....
Great progress! Well done!
A bit of masking tape on the roll-cage before-hand to protect the powder coat?
Where's the next video? Been a long time since you posted. We all wanna see more
Very soon! Just working out a few things here and there. It is 99% finished!
I've been wondering the same thing..good to hear he's 99% there. Can't wait to see. At least we got to hear the engine a while back
love this build class work all looks awesome.
Sweet a FasterProms tune, if you collab your channel will grow!!
Wow! It’s close to the firewall.
For your printed throttle body intake part you could make that top right hole a slot/fork instead so you could tighten it down since it doesn't look like you have clearance to get a screw in there?
So close. Great build
Also if you’re having any raw metal surfaces you might want to invest in some Boeshield as an anticorrosive coating.
It’s not like WD40 which smells and has a tackiness to it that attracts dust. It just puts a thin film that prevents corrosion.
Great build series thinking about building one myself, not sure I will do as good a job as you have though.
This is gonna be like a street legal can - am race car.... Stimulus overload....
Make sure of the heat tolerance for your 3D printed part, some plastic 3D printed turn soft.
The headers look sick. It's difficult to tell from the video, but front engine access looks tight. It's too bad there's not an access plate from the firewall like RRRRe does.
It's tight but not as tight as it looks on video.
