i found a bearing seal and syncro kit for 255 which is pretty good considering the local shop wants 600 dollars.

 

slam car, roll fenders, s5 tails done. clean car dude wish i could find one around me like that

 

getting it running and driving comes first. when my back account recovers then i would love to have a set of work ckai emotions <- I think thats right, i love them

 

update kinda
got a free intercooler ( i need pipes now )
i cleared the intake manifolds and plugged the nipples by the throttle body with set screws
installed the block off plates ( need one for the turbo coolant )
acquired a variety of metric Allan bolts ect.
painted and cleared the hks mani, might stay like that for a while
and put the Christmas present on the crank angle sensor

found out there was for sure no engine management on the car, but i did find the innovate controller

 

Nice build, looks like its coming along great.
BTW your car is sexy lol...



PS, makes me want to paint my car white...

Turbo not watercooled?

 

^^ nope its oil cooled its a GM8 off a 6.5L chevy truck. it worked very well

 

yay the milling of the rotors is done, 3mm ! looks great, gap is good, fitment with the corner seals is A+ local machinist did a great job although he was gunshy at first. now we just need to do the side seals.
note : he didn't take all the bottom out to be safe, we were told this is how it needs to be.

stripping the engine bay is a pain but ive been working on it after school. wish i didn't have to do this but it needs paint because of the POS abs system and a leaky brake booster O ring.








this garbage caused

THIS





Not a huge deal because its just surface rust. but id rather not have to do it !

Wow man, looks amazing coming along great! You wouldn't happen to know the size on most of the allen head bolts would you? I'm guessing not because you just got the bin of them. Love the color too by the way.

Makes me miss my motor I just rebuilt, too bad mines still in Kansas and I'm at school in Arizona

 

looking sweet.
I guess you are going premix. i see you blocked off the oil injector holes..

 

damn thats sweet work!! cant wait to see it running

 

thanks man. i love the colors too, i had it all laid out in my mind and it looks like i wanted it to. and i dont know the sizes, my dad got let loose in a machine shop and the guy said take what you want. he came home with those probably a good $50 at least of allen head bolts.

thanks yea im going to be premixing.

 

is that stock seats? interier is really clean.

 

yea man there stock. the drivers side bolster is a fixed/ beefed up version i made lol but thanks i spent a lot of time in there

 

great build

 

super clean nice!

 

Thanks yo

im about to pressure wash the engine bay when it gets warm enough outside. then sand and paint.

then i need to rebuild my tranny. anyone have any cheap rebuild kit hookups?

then i need new engine mounts

then a new FPD lil screw was out.

THEN i can drive it like i stole it. lol jk i can drive it like a cop is behind me trying to figure out something im doing wrong, for 1k miles then get the E6x Haltech installed and dyno

 

Wow lots of progress happening here...


How did it turn out clear coating the intake mani?

 

it turned out good. im glad i did it. the glass beads cleaned everything up then i just wiped them down with carb cleaner and sprayed. they got a lil darker when the clear went on, but i just wanted something on there to fill up the pores.
