^^ I fear for that 7's life

 

hahah awesome I want to see him do some intercooler piping

 

I bet he used teflon tape to prevent exhaust leaks...

 

 

 

haha YES! Here's my setup.

Early/Mid 2010:




had to break that motor open, and replace my front iron water jacket seal that failed, and decided to get nuts with it:

 

lol the duracell keg

 

He's trying to trick his motor to think it has the reliability of a duracell, lol.

 

so far its been working!

 

 

Whoa. A CA18 7?

 

wow. not something i would do but i appreciate any the work, well done.

 

slight variation...

 

mine, recently install E-fan Bosch from a E36 bimmer..

I hope U aprove!

 

very nice throw a koyo in there and you are set.

 

LOL i was trying to be nice for once.

 

hahaha ^
it's hard isn't it... i need to try it more often myself...

 

**** yea it is lol

 

especially when people are doing CA swaps... haha
SR is the way if you're going to do it!
helll, KA is better than CA! We did a KA-T FC about a year ago and it felt pretty strange (im used to my motor setup) but felt good/strong.

 

i honestly dont see a point in doing a CA-T swap. i mean its a CA lol

but didnt one of the guys from DA do a SR swap a loooong time ago? that setup was pretty rad

 

SR's are RAD. however the drivetrain is not.

Forrest used to blow his trans about every other event. then he got a $2k OS Giken gear set, and it fixed that issue.

 

Nearly there..

FP 3586r

 

 

i love you for taking your fenders off to paint it.
most people skimp the little things like that after doing all that work, and it turns out shitty when you have to move your fenders, or get wider fenders...

it's going to look good dude! don't skimp on any of the small stuff!

 

It's cheaper than an SR to do. The oil sump on a CA is sheet metal, so I just cut up the stock pan and flipped it around to make it work with the FC crossmember. An SR oil pan plays a structural part in the engine design. I couldn't cut it up and move **** around without having to study. I didn't need much power. So for this situation the CA works. I'm a lapping day guy, no drifting. So all I need is 275-300 wheel and some brakes... and that's what I ended up with. Car works great, no complaints.
