Hello! I want your input! Bushman-Teats thread~

I dont know where to put this. I just thought that the West section was the best place to put it... I mean since there are a gang of Dicks here and also OG ppls to give me their input.

Flame all you want. It makes it interesting.
"Project Rena[of the Moon]"


Is that an FD ECU? Harness is Mad cut.


Another part of the wiring cut.


I dont know what part this is, I know its broken tho.


Wiring by the Thermostat. Replaceable???


A hole... WTF is that for?


Damaged rear bolt.


Broken line, Will get better picture for better view.


Is this plug fixable? I mean can I resoder that?


More Cut wires.


Front and back of Turbo.


Thank you for looking! Positive/Negative feedback please! I need some input! MORE TO COME LATER!

J-spec FD ECU


Damaged rear bolt.
That's not a bolt, it's a nut. And it's reusable. It has that notch because whoever took off the flywheel at one point didn't have an impact gun and did it the old school way.

A hole... WTF is that for?
Something with the turbo system. It broke off. Replace that piece.

I dont know what part this is, I know its broken tho.
It's a coolant pipe that connects to the BAC.

Broken line, Will get better picture for better view.
Vacuum line. Take off the UIM and change out all the vacuum lines with new ones.


Another part of the wiring cut.

More Cut wires.

Wiring by the Thermostat. Replaceable???
I'm not going to even bother replying to this. Get a good condition used harness, period. The stress of tracing down wires and soldering things up will be too much of a PITA, especially considering a decent harness is relatively cheap.


/Good deed of the week

Thanks for the input guys! Thanks Andrewdruiz!

K well first off... I called the guy who sold me the engine and hes trying to get me a JDM s5 ECU and Uncut Harness... If worst comes to worst I can get a US ECU+Harness and use that right? Coz I know I wont be able to use that FD ECU... That pipe on the BAC is finished... I think I need to get a whole new BAC, but I'll get into that later. + I'm getting new hoses, coz alot of the hoses seem to be either really used/corroded or broken.

+ I dont know if I'm going to use the stock TMIC.... Its kinda fucked up. So... I might just end up going FMIC...

Sorry no pix update... Lost battery to my camera. I'm just taking the engine apart and cleaning + inspecting as much as I can before I swap it in. I will update tonight!

Thanks again y'all!
