LOL, well the umbilical cored is done and I need to route to the passenger compartment now.

Got some parts recently, two Synapse Engineering BOVs, these just became available in limited quantities. Mostly complete fuel system setup, got the secondary rail and fuel reg from GZ and the rest at Oil Filter Services (they have everything!). Just need to get injectors. Anybody want to buy 4 brand spanking new 850cc side feeds?

 

Pic Pic Booger

 

Mostly done with the wiring in the passenger compartments. Still need to tie in the battery cables and finish the main distribution box mounting. Turning out pretty clean. Also Spider and Bobby found a spray that dyes interior plastics to the exact same color as if they were new. Hit them up for it.

Peace

 

Interior wiring complete. Attached is a pic of a before/after refurbish body panels.

 

Grrr slave moan bitch wine!
:p

 

Man did Apex strip the Apex Restoration stickers off his car ?

 

yep

 

My car is starting to look similar...

 

Been sick for the last four days has slowed me down, but progress is being made. Well nothing special to report, putting parts back on now. Finally got all four corners of the suspension put together (had an issue with recieving a wrong half shaft assembly from MC) and put on the heat shield material for the exhaust. A bit overkill, but the passenger shouldn't have an issue of being slowly roasted.

Spider, nice, think you will be done before I am?

 

Well I was hoping to have the motor in the engine bay by today, but in order of ease of setup and installation I need to wait for my injectors to come in and I need some fittings for the FPR. Then fabricate a mount for the FPR and the pressure vessel for the wastegate control. Easier to remove and install stuff with the motor out.

So mostly done with mod'n the engine harness, just need the injectors and injector clips. I went with 4 1000cc secondaries, two in series per side. And two new 550cc side feed units (main reason on holding off on installing the motor, major PITA to install those).

Peace

 

Is that a Synapse product? It Looks similar in build quality to the BOV they make.

 

Yep, got two of them.

 

man can't wait for a ride. Looks good

 

Get ready to loose your doors in Aug...Because I'm going to blow them off!!! hahahahahhahaha

 

Finally got my 1000cc secondary injectors, need to make new mounting tabs for the rail to seat the injectors better into the LIM.

Expect my primaries to be clean and ready to go today and I will be getting my BBK!

Wish John luck his car is going to the dyno today to finish his incomplete tune.

 

Big Brake Kit in now, had to modify a few things, but that was to be expected. Finally got all my injectors, should have the motor in the engine bay later this week. After looking into it, I will be add an FJO low impedence fuel injector controller to the mix for proper fuel control.

 

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you

 

Your new rims going to fit over these ?

 

Yes, but the stock wheels and small spare won't. lol The spare wheel well area will be uses for an amp and sub, possibly something else too.......


Modified my Nardi steering wheel to accept the cruise control switch module and installed the wheel on the steering column.

 

Motor and tranny are in; secondary fuel rail fits, but is a bit tight with the Marren fuel dampener in place and the synapse bov may not work at the secondary boost control setup because of clearances. Will have to see when everything is in place. Rear brakes are also done, had to sand off material on the pads in order to fit. I had this same issue with my stock brakes and HP+ pads.....

And the dash is being repaired, the back lip of the center speaker pod was peeling up.

 

Not much progress with the FD lately, but I did fab up a fuel line splitter that will split the fuel into two stock fuel lines aft of the fuel filter. Bobby did some repair work on the dash and I currently fab'n up a swaybar mount crossbar/oil thermostat mount.

Working on other peoples cars this week for the PIR track day Sunday.

 

Well, back to the grind. I modified the oil thermostat to include a section for an oil temp sensor; I did this to eliminate the giant cluster F the Mocal temp sensor adaptor would have caused. Just need to fab up a rubber isolated mount to the sway bar mount stiffening bar and oil lines can then be routed.

I also removed all the old pealing top coat on my 93 center console and retextured it to look and kinda feel like a 94 unit.

 

Almost done with the oil cooler mount/swaybar stiffening bar. Had to make another fuel Y splitter, the original was to big of a diameter tubing, doh. Got my RE street diffuser, nice piece, but it got damaged during shipping, will fix cracks and coat with rhino liner, or something with similar properties.

 

Re-textured with what or how?

Thanks for keeping us in the loop of you entire rebuild.

David

 

If what I did pans out in the long term I will let everyone know about it, until then I need to validate what I did will be durable or not. Don't want people to follow suit and find out they need to buy a new console in a few months.

Thanks for the props.
