[QUOTE=fbse7en;11016623]Sodrifter: Is that an Mx32 Cressida in the carport?! If so, much love to the Cressida!!
(i've got an '86 Mx73, Factory 5spd w/LSD sitting in the garage w/BHG *sad-face*)
Like your CV wheels too!

thanks. yeah its an mx32. blown head gasket too. but jus a lil. my woman is still driving it a few miles a day for now.

 

Well... (last 3 day recap)
Installed KYB shocks with Tein springs (all 4 points) 1" drop
Put on UltraRacing Strut tower Bar
Spectre cold air intake
Koyo Racing Rad
Installed fuel cut off switch

That is it this week.

 

installed a braided oil feed line for my turbo. then over tightened the bolt on the banjo fitting.... noob couldn't find one locally and was getting pissed. luckily a random guy that dropped off a set of ac schnitzer wheels for me to refinish. who happened to be a machinist and offered to make one for me. worked perfect and im back to boostin YAAAAY!!! for 0$$ STOKED!!!

 

ordering parts!
bhr ingition kit for rx8 new tail light gasket
outer tie rods for fd, new sway bar bracket and end links

then ordered weber jets and carb rebuild kit for my dads 13B with a 48dco he is going to put in his fb

 

I see some of you are keeping busy - well, so am I. Just installed a Dakota Digital tachometer adapter in my FB, works perfectly - converts the Skyline ECU tach signal to work the FB tach.
I am also accumulating parts for the big brake swap - got some GSL-SE axles from a friend. They were damaged when the bearings and retainer sleeves were cut off by someone who did not know the proper removal procedure. My friend Sean O'Brien welded up the damaged areas, I filed them smooth and then my machinist drilled them for the 5 bolt pattern and pressed in the studs. I recently got some almost new slotted rotors at PickNPull, and today I traded the used front and rear convertible/turbo style calipers for rebuilt ones, so now I have all the parts I need. I also just got one of the 15 inch BBS convertible wheels, so now I have a full set. This swap will be exactly like the one I did on my V8 car, which is shown on my Cardomain page.

I keep thinking of more things to do, like the stainless steel radiator catch can I made from an old teapot, the gas strut that holds my hood up, etc. Still trying to decide where to mount my air/fuel and boost gages - I really don't want to put them on the windshield post.

 

Mostly got the rear subframe swapped. Went and got some good used 16's for my 2nd set of wheels so I can put up my studs. Decided to start her up before I put the Y and duals back on and lemme tell you, a 3" in 3" out "flowmaster" in pretty loud! So I guess the 2 glasspacks on each side of the dual have a lot to do with how my car sounds.

 

After letting it sit for 4 months, I installed the rebuilt turbo and gassed it up.

 

Reinstalled AST bullshit after getting over my horrible cold. Car seems to not be leaking anymore, which is nice. Was pouring out so I didn't get to test out the new AD08s up front. ANOTHER DAY!!!

 

Got new headlights and heavy duty harness from Black Dragon installed.

 

Installed new Katech rod bolts to bump the redline up and over 7000.



Started installing my dry sump setup.

 

how much did the dry sump cost?

 

Did 3rd gear burnouts yesterday, ripped it around today all sick. AST is leaking from one of the welds, **** Howe.


More than you can afford pal, NASCAR.
... Did you ever get the RCAs hammered out Josh?

 

Tore out my interior to find a short in the power cable from my battery to my wire harness and I just ordered a throttle position sensor since mine won't calibrate....

She needs a wash...

 

Oh, you know Josh's budget? It wasn't bad at all actually. Must be more than you can afford though...

 

Got to work a little on the fc.

 

Very clean. Good job.

 

This drama reminds me of Fast and the furious when the MKIV raced the Ferrari lol.

 

All I is is drama.

 

I know from what Josh posts that he's fairly frugal, all was in jest though. There's very little for FCs that I can't afford if I desire it I saved my A/C bracket in case it can be of use should I decide to dry sump, I just don't see the point ATM although it has crossed my mind. I'd have to eat an engine first though. I'm content with a shimmed/ported TSP oil pump and a IR baffle. PS, I'm driving this weekend, are you?!?

So clean! Are you running speed density?

 

3/8s or 5/8s? My car is still in Yakima, I will be bringing it up from Yakima next weekend for Round 1 Pro-am. We competing?

 

Not a chance lol. This will be my first time driving in over a year, first time with the ls, first time anywhere besides SSS. I went from 100whp - 320whp, so this should be awesome.

 

Got knuckles? If not, I see you getting very dizzy soon. Have fun though! Just get out there and drive!

 

Thanks! I still have to install the harness. Its done just have to plug it in but yeah I'm running speed density.

 

I have knuckles, they're not on the car though. I do have the super now jammies on there, I'm content with s13 angle for now


I'm jealous, did someone local do your SD tune?

 

I got it from digital solo I bought his old set up since he switched over to bs3.
