I also have heard this from many sources....SO....... I am now running 4 EV14 injectors that I purchased from FiveO motorsports for under $500 shipped....

 

^ agreed. Id injectors are not the same injectors as EV14's.

 

My friend in Tampa has a turbo / fuel injector servicing shop and he confirmed that ID does little more than "dress up" the injectors with the fancy hats. They service thousands of injectors every year. He flow tested an ID versus a normal EV-14 and the results were identical.

Yes, when you buy a set of injectors from ID, they do match dead times, but you can request EV-14s with matched dead times when purchasing from other sources as well.

I know lots of people running the non-ID EV-14s in their high-horsepower cars. Never heard any complaints or problems.

 

Thanks for all the advice and heads up on the injectors.. I ended up getting another pair of ID1000's.

All in all i spent less than $400 on 4 of them.. So I cant really complain.


As for the fenders, i got them on. just need a bit of cleaning up and finishing touches and should be ready to paint..







Also I will be selling my NSX lights and going a different route..

 

love your build ! :o

 

thanks




so i got my other 2 id1000s in.. and I couldnt be happier, because all i need now is some AN fittings and im set to go for the fuel set up..








BUT.....



today I found out my motor needs a rebuild....


I originally started with the intentions of taking off my turbo set up to get my manifold modified so that the turbo doesnt sit so close to the LIM..




You can see how much room i have towards the strut to move the turbo.


After removing the turbo, you can see were the vband hits the LIM. hence why i wanted to get the flange modified so that the turbo sits further away from the LIM.

\



And this is were the fun began...

 

Upon removing the turbo i noticed a hint of gas and coolant..

I took a look inside the manifold and saw fluid.. That caught my attention immediately.

I started loosening the turbo manifold, and coolant started dripping out.. As soon as I removed the manifold a gush of fluid came out..


I cranked the engine over by hand, and gushes of water came out. almost like a water hose was open in my engine.( which would explain why my coolant would disappear).

so now I need to take the motor out, rebuild it and hope the irons are good and not cracked..

enjoy these gay *** pictures of fail...


You can see water pouring out...







HOW THE **** DOES THIS HAPPEN!?!?











Enjoy this fail.

 

2 words for you. Rotary Aviation. That's where I got my o ring kit from. Plus there reusable.

 

Ouch!!! I hate setbacks...just another obstacle to overcome bro.

 

Jeez man, sorry to see this sht. If it's not one thing it's another. Just stay positive! At least this gives you the opportunity to build it yourself. I'll be down in a couple months and we'll start 'em up together.

 

Bummer dude, like blackadde/// said gives you a chance to build the motor exactly how you want it. In the long run you'll end up with a great motor.

Love the style of the body due. Will look sick once its all finished.

 

Mike you better come to LA with your fd!!.


thank you...


Thanks Gordon.



Thankfully i found another motor im picking up that has blown water seal. Going to use the best of motor motors and build one solid motor.. Hopefully everything is still usable on both motors..

Also plan on piecing together another rebuild kit. and build it like the RE I had.

 

+1 can't go wrong. . .

sucks to hear dude. . .if you need any 13B-RE stuff let me know. . .I think we still have 2 of them left here. . .I went with the REW instead. . ..

 

im staying REW for now.. thanks though unless its 94-95 re then we need to talk haha



I ended picking up a 97 series 7 13b-rew to build up...

has about 70k kilometers on it.. should be a good base to start my rebuild.. since i dnt trust my current engine...

hopefully i can have booth motors torn down by the weekend...









more updates to come.

 

yea the motor with coolant in the ports looks bad... rusty coolantish or something. Thats a bloody shame. Where'd you get that motor anyhow?

 

Yea im thinking it has broken coolant jacket.. I got that one from my friend... makes me wish I kept the re...but the new engine shall.be built right.

 

hope you got it cheap.....some friend.

 

so heres some small updates ...

I ended up buying some authentic D-max rear 50mm fenders.. couldnt be happier.. love these things.. hopefully Ill be able to get them on some time during the week.






also started doing my Haltech Sprint RE wiring.. hopefully I can get around to finishing it or its going to my friends shop to get done..



also got some stickers made..

 

Had time to crack open my series 7 engine.. This thing was super filthy and full of carbon... but no signs of major wear on the rotors or housings and irons.. so not bad at all.. not too sure about the discoloration on the the E-shaft though..








******* filthy and covered in carbon...



not to sure if this is good or bad for the eshaft being a bit discolored..







more filth




not much wear on the irons..

 

when are you planning on having this thing on the street/track?

 

2037

 

never*

 

well that's disappointing.

 

the moment i stop hitting set backs..


EAT MY DICK benny <3


suck it John.

 

What size ccw's did you have ?
