any guesses?

No idea. Tell!

i could only think youd finally be doing the flame project

i have no idea but i want to know tell me

Very intriguing. I think you're building a Warp Core with Antimatter Fuel Rods.

im guessing something with the exhaust.. or surrounding the exhaust

Nope, not the exhaust. The chrome pipes you see are 1.5" in diamater.

keep guessing.

Hmm...could this be those custom warp nacelles you were talking about doing on the sides of your amp rack?

I'm gonna guess some kind of door sill backlight project, or something to do with water, maybe some kind of glowing pipe idea...

that's what i had planned to build, but decided it looked far to simple.

Well i am probably way off but with your stuff it almost looks like this could be pulled off.

*DING DING DING* WE HAVE A WINNER!!!

Yup, i'm actually building a Warp Core with Antimatter Fuel Rods. Simulated parts include:
- matter/antimatter reaction assembly (M/ARA)
- warp plasma conduits
- Containment field generators
- Plasma core

HAHA WOW!!! I just randomly thought about that piece cause i have a friend who is all about it. And posted it up....Do i get a cookie now?

Can i have it

Update: With this cursed rain, I haven't been able to paint until yesterday.....but it yielded some awesome results:

First up: Containment field generators. in the event of a warp core rupture, it keeps antimatter from leaking all over my new leather seats.



Antimatter Fuel Rod: Similar in design to a warp nacelle but stores the matter and antimatter that feeds the warp core

Are these going in the car, or are you just building them for the hell of it? Either way there very cool.

This thread makes me go

It's going inside the car, inside the amp rack where the crossovers used to be. I used to have 4 xovers, then i went active on the front channels. I moved the rear channel crossovers to the walls leaving an open space in the center of the amp rack....space for the warp drive.

Here's a scale sketch of what I plan for it to look like:



it's going here:

Simply put....genius. You are def one of my favorite car modders. Unique, and you have the only corvette i really like. Which kinda looks like a space ship

Make me one........









now =)

wish i was this skilled

Update: Fuel Rods and Containment Field Generators mounted and testing:



Final construction and installation pics tomorrow.

Looking very good, Can't wait to see the final product.
