some more

 

oh and started to paint mani's

 

loler at the topic name

 

UPDATE: So the motor from Seattle fell through and I ended up buying the RX7.com rebuilt motor from a forum member here for a GREAT price. Since then I have been busying buying the needed parts to get this beast running.

For my EMS:

I got my Apexi PFC and commander(thanks turb0x2) and my Banzai racing adapter with sensors. I also got my trailing coils wired correctly for the PFC mod

Exhaust:
Finally got the welding done for the flex pipe on my RB presilncer. DP bolts up perfect to turbo now!!

Interior:
I am in the process of wiring my BZ adapter to knock box and spped sensor. I also installed two new gauges in front of the idiot cluster. They turned out very nice for the amount of bullshit was required to hide the wiring and mount the cups.

Exterior:

I got a little inspiration from erikseven and smoked the FTP and front/side turn signals. I used Lamin-x on the FTP and VHT niteshade/clear coat on the turnsignals. As for the rear wheels I put some 5mm spacers to get that rubber flush if not a little beyond the fender. Should look good once I actually get this pig on the floor.

Engine:

I have been doing a lot of painting! Got to make it pretty! I still need to install the pilot bearing, turbo oil lines and RB oil adapter.
I alos heard that the knock sensor is best on the rear housing of FC's SO I tapped the rear rotor housing and installed.

More to come as I get closer to payday. Still need to get Datalogit, old school laptop and radiator.

will keep posted..

 

Pics of engine, exhaust and EMS.

 

Rear wheels and interior

 

exterior. You like?

 

lookin good!

 

How did you tint the running lights?

Nice color to.

 

VHT Niteshade. Make sure you clear coat it or it looks too flat.

 

What did you use to paint this stuff? It looks great and I am in the process of rebuilding and would love to have my manifold look that fantastic.

 

I actually used the Engine Block paint you see at any Schucks/Checker/Autozone. You know, the stuff that is tough up to 500 degrees. Just put on about three heavy coats then used the 500 degree clear coat and put on a nice wet heavy coat. Stuff turned out great for being rattle can!!

 

UPDATE:

I have got everything installed on the engine besides the radiator hoses and oil cooler lines. I re-finished all my grounds, installed new pilot bearing, wired in my PFC and retro fitted a turbo blanket. I also re-finished my wiring harness(what a f*cking nightmare)

I did a whole lot more but am just beat today from this pig and can't think right now.

I am just waiting on my Koyo, Datalgoit and a laptop, after that she should start up and be ready to fine tune.

Will keep updated..

 

I don't think those blue fuel lines are ricey. If they were a color other than blue, then maybe.

 

Thanks man. I don't think so either now that 50% of them are covered by mani's and what not

 

clean ride dude, i like the color and the fuel lines dont look ricey

 

How long were you in Iraq?? And speaking for all of us on the forum thanks for being out there for us!! Were all glad to have you back home!!

 

Thanks man. Only in Iraq for a 60 day ANG tour.

 

looks nice bro someone is shooting for 400+ whp

 

Yes sir I am! Saw your vid El, looks like your already there.

 

yeahhh booyyyee

you are already there too bro

 

good job man, car looks awesome

 

****! I have hit a road block. PFC won't work due to a short possibly. Check out my threads in 2nd gen and PFC forums if intrigued.

 

nice job bro

 

Thanks for the compliments guys.

unfortunately I have hit a road block and have to send in my PFC to get it bench tested. I am unsure if it didn't work when I bought it or it accidentally fried so they will let me know what ghosts are in the machine.

will keep you updated.
