3 Attachment(s)
Hey guys currently have a engine being build for me by rx7Specialists in Calgary Alberta. stock rebuild with better than stock rotor housings and race apex seals.
anyway im making progress. started taking the engine out yesterday ill throw up some pictures as well so far rad, exhaust, driveshaft, chargingharness, intakes are all off today i gotta pull the ecu plugs threw the firewall then im gonna hook up the hoist take the 2 mount bolts off and start taking bars off to lower the trans down, are there any plugs i have to remove on the trans if im taking the engine harness out with the engine? also what is this plug it has been off since i bought the car? |
That plus has something to do with your boost control, there must be an aftermarket boost controller in the car. That plug gets disco'd when you run a EBC. I believe that's the case.

i found this ecu and should be lifting the engine tomorrow sometime
|
so i took the 4 nuts holding up the transmission off and the 2 underneath the engine and it wobbles back and forth like it should, but for some reason when im using my hoist it will lift up a bit then stop lifting
|
Nice 13b u got right there :P
|
The starter is held on by one bolt and one bolt&nut... Underneath (once removed) there is another bolt under where the starter is...*
Before you disconnect it all, make sure you undo the clutch assembly... *Etc... There are a few videos online about it... Basically... Remove clutch slave... Remove access planes to looks into bell housing Push fork assembly forward, then with a screwdriver, 'twist' in between the gold circle clip... And the fork assembly to seperate This is a video, of what I just tried to explain... There are 4.... Connectors on the tranny that go to sensors,* They need to be disconnected, as they are apart of the engine harness... Cheers (from Red Deer) J. |
i got the engine out same day as my last post, then problem was a turbo intake piece getting in the way. ill post some pictures after this post,
anyway new engine from rx7specialists should be here anytime next week. i haven't taken much off the old engine frankly because im scared as fuck looking at all that shit is it really as bad as it looks? |
Hey engines done tonight apparently so here in a few days. Can't put up pictures until tomorrow but flywheel is off, turbos and exhaust mani off, upper intake mani off some other shit looks a lot easier now just time consuming I took tons of pics.
|
so engines out and every single thing is off of the short block, wasn't very hard at all, i was most nervous about the rats nest but i took it all out as one big piece as you'll see in the pictures. the new engine will be here this coming Tuesday and i should be receiving pictures of the new engine today hopefully

new engine-->
also getting a machined flywheel thrown on |
can someone tell me how i can get those long water pump studs out of the old engine??
|
well not that anyone cares but got the engine started today fixed a couple leaks and tomorrow ill add trans fluid and take it for a drive and see if any leaks come up.
|
Nice looking 3rd gen there, more pics all around and I prefer photo bucket to do forum pics,
just got to Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket it's free. As I have buttoned up an engine replacement a few months back I sympathize about the leaks and tracking them down had one that took a month to find on the back of the water pump housing. great to here you got it fired up, will be waiting to see how she runs. |
what do you mean better than stock rotor housings?

anyone know what could be causing this? i took a look under the UIM and all the vac lines are connected, it just happened once i boosted for the first time on my rebuild |
So nobody cares but winters over in Regina SASK. got my emissions delete all done. I used Rotary Resurrection's 3rd gen emissions delete guide.
I got the banzai racing block off plate kit. Had no idea how much shit the JDM intakes don't have compared to the USDM. anyway I also got the OMP block off kit. Also I heard for premix 1oz for every 1gal. If someone can confirm this that would be super. So I work in the oilfield and its break up due to mud. I have been waiting for EI for two months now. I haven't decided if I want to run the non sequential twins and drive. Or just go with my build and wait to finish to drive it. I already cut out the flapper doors, ill decide when I get my EI. If I'm still alive when that happens. Anyway for all those wondering. Official build: rebuilt Stockport (1,700km��ATM) Gt3582r ball bearing Turblown enineering turbo kit 2000id secondary's Stock 550 primary's 400lph pump A1000 regulator Power FC Custom vmount intercooler kit HKS twin power Tien super drift coils Haven't decided on brake kit Haven't decided on a clutch Anyway ill put up some pics of the engine all emissions free and also I rewrapped my engine harness and stripped all the emissions wires. |
So car is running basically stock right now with rebuilt stock port and race apex seal engine; power FC, innovative mtx-l wideband, Feed 3.5" full exhaust no cat and apexi intake filters. Full emissions delete and OMP delete. Full non sequential conversion. I rewrapped and deleted all unnecessary plugs from the harness. Waiting for my experienced friend to tune it Monday or around then.
Any idea what wheel HP I should be able to put down? |

Tuning her Tuesday.

Moved to Friday.
I have a issue. At idle my dash rpm's read 900 but my power FC reads 1,700 |
My breaks don't work, I bled them and they felt alot better. But the car was off and I started it today and there soft as fuck and when I press then my car revs higher
|
Both issues resolved, And car is now basic tuned and drive-able
