Project 2024 Global Time Attack UNLIMITED S650 Build

[Mod Mustang Racing]

Hey guys, welcome to our new Build Thread! It will be long, it will be full of pics and our journey to compete in the Global Time Attack and Grid Life Unlimited classes (basically anything goes rules) -more info on those sanctioning bodies here: https://globaltimeattack.com/ & https://www.grid.life/

Welcome to our project named: Equinsu Ocha

Our build started as a brand new 2024 Mustang GT, it will wear Darhorse front facia along with some new MMR carbon fiber fenders (coming soon to the MMR website), a custom high downforce aero package that includes a custom carbon fiber front splitter, fenders, rear wing and diffuser.

Just a few details (lots more to come) Power will come from a Forced Induction MMR 5.2L Coyote Engine making 1000+hp (stay tuned for engine dyno videos too). Engine electronics are by way of Fueltechs new FT700 ECU and ABS system will be handled by a Bosch Motorsport along with brakes from AP Racing Calipers / Rotors

All suspension components are MMR and can all be found on our website. For wheels we have chosen Forgeline (not the Carbon wheels shown in the picture)

Lots more info coming so be sure to follow the thread!

Enjoy the build!

Well, she is all torn apart and headed to the chassis shop where it will get a Full rollcage installed and seam welding in critical areas. In the meantime we have some new carbon fiber pieces being made and will update the thread as parts show up/get installed.

Stay tuned!!

Following!
Finally someone is doing something cool with the new mustangs. Been waiting for a worthwhile build thread on this website.

Progress on Project Equinsu Ocha continues.

Front portion of the cage all tacked together and ready for final welding.

Can you share what weights you got the chassis down to?
Any "chassis only" weights without the subframes?
Thanks for any shared info.

 

[ISLAND DARK HORSE]

Surprised you're running stock front suspension arms! Any plans to upgrade?

 

[Mod Mustang Racing]

Chassis Nearing Completion. Test Fitting of Carbon Roof and Carbon Fiber Doors (both now available from MMR) Firewall Trimmed and Smoothed, some seam welding done on front frame rails. Next we will be test fitting the MMR Coyote engine and completing the fab work in the engine bay. More progress coming soon.

Looking for December update. I see turbos!

We Finished painting Engine Compartment and Installed Manual Brake Booster and Divorced Clutch Reservoir. Coming from the GT350 we really disliked the brake feel of the S650 which was one of our reasons behind ditching the factory brake setup. Thankfully the Manual brake booster from the GT350 bolted right up. Next up we will be re-installing Factory K member and then Front Suspension.

the Manual brake booster from the GT350 bolted right up.

What is a manual brake booster?

 

[Mod Mustang Racing]

A manual booster (which uses vacuum) as opposed to the electric/hydraulic assisted brakes on the S650.
