My '93 Build... almost done!
So since i popped my motor in August I started spending thousands of dollars on stuff and started my build in late December. Now that it's early March I need to hustle since spring is just around the corner. As of today the car was ready to start for the first time, until I turned the key and burned out my igniter so as of tomarrow I will have a replacement to try again LoL. These pics are from 2 weeks ago so they aren't completely up to date. Here's my mod list so far. This is just for the engine/fuel/igniton. Much more work to do to the rest of the car.

Wow thats one clean engine bay your building up. Nice!

Oil feedline looks like a -8? 4 coils and one msd box?
Don't really mean to bust your balls, but I see vacuum caps zip tied on coolant bungs. All that time spent chroming should have been spent welding or plugging that stuff. |
Looks great! Keep up the good work!
I agree that the coolant lines should never be capped off, should either weld or run a line from the rear iron to the front. Running a cap is like having a stock AST again, you're just waiting for it to go. Aaron |
I missed the coolant caps, those things typically don't last.
At this point you'd be better off cutting up a stock heater hose and plugging it with a 1/2 inch threaded plug from home depot. for the passenger side one, use a 90 degree bend portion so it's not as visible, and for the one on the driver's side block just use a short straight portion. Pretty sure it's 1/2, bring a piece of hose to test fit, your adventure begins in the plumbing section of home depot :lol: P.S. make sure you use some sturdy clamps :) |

Speaking of AST's... where would be the best spot to mount it?? |
heh nice build buddy :P
you BETTER have that running at my place pretty damn soon! |

I've become a fan of deleting the AST, i used to advocate keeping them but I've since defected :D
|
Nice!
|
Beautiful! Very nice looking ignition system. I had never heard of that setup. Any more details on it?

anyways... where would a good place to mount it be???? |
Heh, I know you like shiny crap, I've probably mailed 7 boxes of it to your place :D
Mount it as high as possible, wherever you can find a spot for it. you can use a bracket and mount it to the top middle of the rad, above the fans. |
like the fuel system A++++++ ill be upgrading mine soon cant decide between your setup or the Ultimate Fuel System on rx7 net. if you dont mind me asking what made you decide on this one?
