i actually bought the car and have a new subfame i made that clears the stock hood using a greedy style manifold. i did modify the front to make the TB exit to the front not at a angle. All i have to say about the prior swap parts is i canot belive there were 2 people that stupid, one dumb enought to fab something that poorly thinking its legit and another to let them put it on there car.

i am waiting on the exhaust manifold flange to start building the twin scroll manifold with dual vband 38's i already bought. ill be running a HTA86 i had on my civic, it made 748 on my civic at 32psi. i replaced the t3.82 hot side i had on it with a t4 1.06 so it should have a very nice power band on the 2j. i have a dual 255 setup i made with 8an feed and 6an return feeding a ross machine racing fuel raill and FIC 1650's(e85 here i come) i am looking to max out the turbo, i have no idea what that will be but i am guessing around 650whp( i need to look and seee what 75lbs per min turbos do on 2j's) i will be ordering my Pro efi in about a month so i should be trying to start it then. o yea im running a r154 trans with a os qiken twin disk. i am looking to do paint and wheels this winter and a 6speed v160 and cobra 8.8 rear after that.

tie rod angle with bumpsteer kit, it clears the stock wheels with the suspention fully compressed
|
What did you end up paying for it?
|
it was a good enough deal to save it...
|
I hate to say it, but... I think we all saw that coming.
Good work on trying to resurrect it. Backyard "faux-gineers" upset me... |
got the intake mani all welded up and ready for the new TB
|
Where did you get your extensions for the bumpsteer kit? I need some for my swap.
|
they came on the car, he said they were henson super car ones
|
Sweet!
|
Car is all together... pro efi issues now.
|
Any updates?
With my 2JZ swap, we ended up relocating the steering rack forward to where it clears the oil-pan and is now completely straight across. It sits at the stock-height now as well. We had to extend the steering column, shorten the tie-rods, and make some custom brackets for the front swaybars. No bumpsteer issues now, though. :] |
This site hates me it never let's me upload pictures. I also moved my rack forward. I wish I was a little more computer savvy

That's great news! Mines is almost complete. Where did you get your wiring done by the way
|
Nice save any videos of the dyno or drag run?
|
I'll have to see if I can find some.
