Starlight presents the next Lancia Delta Evo1 "Joyous LaSupra" aka "Joy of Machine", actually nearly the same as “LaSupra” but a wilder one.
As already said in the previous thread Peter Pentell’s wild ‘LaSupra’ build in spring of 2013 was an amazing project. See the separate thread "LaSupra".
Peters mentality, can-do everything, gave birth to a vehicle that is basically a space-framed, Supra-engined, Lancia-looking project that he created in his Swedish garage.
Idea for this car given by Slender_Man.
Now Peter added to the Japanese heart a little more power, for this "heart" transplantation we need a better “pacemaker”. You got it!
All those changes makes “LaSupra” ridiculously cool.
So when Peter agreed that it should use an Andy Blackmore-designed (Joy Of Machine) livery at the end of 2013, the result must be seen as a successful transformation of the Lancia Delta.
But Peter was not Peter if he did just a new livery… Oh no, not this Peter.
Peter has made of course a few changes. Let’s start with the new rear wing structure.
Second the fully removable front end makes access much easier than when it was all fixed to the car.
So now it becomes lighter as well, with the headlights removed and spotlamp covers which Peter has machined the rear rim off and inserted LED angel eye rings in for that evil look. But that’s only the start of it as there’s lashings of carbon and GRP too, saving over 20 kilograms (44 lbs) alone with the new structure.
Lift it off and there’s yet another surprise. The original twin turbo set-up has been replaced by a new single Precision 6266 billet turbo with a Powerhouse cast iron manifold for faster spool up.
On the other side there’s a new Powerhouse fuel rail with 1400cc injectors.
The “LaSupra” was running around 500hp and with this kit he has the potential for 700hp, so in time that’s where it’ll end up.
Ready for time-attack!
