Everything is coming along. Still a work in progress cosmetically, but mechanically killer. It's Chad @ ASI's vision underneath the hood. Some polishing and breaking in to go....700 miles till boost. :-P Thought you guys might like to see...

 

:applaud:

What's the mod list, there, buddy?

Oh..and did you paint your calipers? (duh...I just mean it looks nice).

 

NICE car! Very clean look you got going there. Keep it up

 

Very nice job...looks like itd coming along real nice cant wait to see the finished product

 

Very nice! I thought the radiator had to be tilted upright for a fmic to fit.... so does that mean you can remove the a.s.t.?

 

What kind of fmic are you running?

 

rotorrooter: I'm a "leave the AST in" guy I don't know if having it upright negates the need for the AST, but I don't want to start one of those debates. I figure I have the ASI ast with the billet top, so it's bulletproof...leave it there.

The intercooler is also made by ASI. The engine was ported and rebuilt by ASI with hurley 2mm.
Greddy BOV, Elbow, ProfecB.
Um... Brembos, Hawk HPS pads.
Racing Beat springs.
ACT SS clutch.
9.5 flywheel
DP, MP with Edelbrock weld
Peittit boost gauge, Unlimited ECU
Supra pump

Still need: aluminum radiator, short shift, torque brace...

Any other suggestions?

 

Wow, Leprecaun, that is very clean! I have a silver FD with a blown motor that is my next project car and yours is just the look I am after.

Congrats and good luck!

 

hence the need for the ASI sticker
j/k w/ ya! looks

 

You forget to mention that you are non-seq. I see that a little plastic tank is missing

Anyways, it looks good man
can you get any closer shots of how the FMIC fits with the rad?

 

did ASI make the metal piece (with the sticker on it)? or did you custom make it? it looks really nice, along with the whole car.

 

Leprechaun, what pulleys are you using? Is it the complete set from Unorthodox or .....???

Thanks dude.

Hehe. When you see it on my hood, on my windshield, and as my avatar you can make fun of me.

Oh and I'm not non-seq. Chad must have hidden it. :-x Just say NO to lag (at least until I go single).

I'll get some more shots tomorrow in daylight if you want.

The metal piece was custom made by ASI. And I'm not sure which pulley set that is, actually. Chad would know...

Thanks for the compliments, guys.

 

Thanks Lep for posting some of our work! If you guys are interested in the aluminum cover you can contact me direct or Jason at Rx7store.net Yes we do make the covers and have them in stock.My # is in the location box or you can email me at asiracing@worldnet.att Heres another pic of the covers if itll post.

 

another pic. the cover comes as a 2 piece set w/waterneck cover as shown in picture
FYI before someone ask ,the sticker is not included unless you order direct and even still is not stuck to the cover.

 

oops

 

There are a couple pics of the install process underneat the cover, for you guys that were interested.

 

And as a bonus here are some more pics of the aluminum covers. Call chad at 954-566-2472 if you are interested in one. He makes them.

As you can see, gives the engine bay a really clean, put-together look.

 

How much are they and will they work with the Blitz FMIC?

 

I would imagine you could make them fit around that stuff. You have to keep things below the level of the cover anyway, or the hood won't close.

ASI's # is 954-566-2472 . He will tell you how much they are. Mine was a package thing with the intercooler-engine, etc.

 

the panels do fit with vertually any fmic and more information will be available with pricing through the rx7store.net over the next couple of weeks,but momentarily pricing is being negotiated,but if its something that cant wait you can call me at 954-461-5453,my names Chad with ASIracing

 

Where in Ft. Lauderdale is ASI?

 

It's coming along nicely.
