Well it's Friday afternoon.. Holidays start now so I'll party this weekend and then the next two weeks will be spent working hard on the cars
Not much working getting done.. Just a lot of drinking! Haha
Motor came out yesterday..
Now time to start swapping everything over.. Hopefully engine will be in by end of next week and then will just need to re wire everything
So got a bit done over the weekend and today
Pedal box is over and bolted in clutch master cylinder has been cleaned up repainted and bolted in
Cross member
And steering rack is bolted in.. Have a bit of a problem though as I'm only running standard lower control arms and the steering rack has a lock spacer in it.. I can get one wheel pointing forward but the other is at full lock pointing in.. Any ideas guys? I've tried adjusting it as much as I can on that side but it's no better
Also got my inter cooler mounted in and oil cooler is mounted!
Need to go over everything over the next few days and make sure it's all tight and clean up the engine bay!!
Hopefully drop the motor in on Friday and hopefully have it running by Sunday!!
so is it running yet?
Nah I wish I had it running and ready for all jap day tmrw
Motor is all in wirings all done just a few little electrical gremlins and now it's all the small fiddly stuff that needs to be done.. Mounting the battery and mount gauges.. Still need to order a new radiator etc etc.
So been a while since I've done an update but motor is in and running and doing everything it's meant to be doing
Just need to sort out suspension...
At the moment I'm running sigma LCAs but it's just too much track for me so I need to get my hands on some XT130s.. So if anybody is wanting to swap from xt130s to sigma LCAs let me know or if you know of some up for sale send me a link.. I keep my eyes out as much as possible but not always quick enough
And then I'll be needing to organize some coil overs and ae86 hubs for the brake upgrade
And there is always more work to do in between.. So while I'm hunting and searching for stuff I'll be doing some cosmetic upgradesand a good cut and polish.. Fix up some rust etc etc.
New radiator arrived today from the land of US took just over a week!! Pretty happy with that!
Can't wait to get it in and wired up!! Massive coolant flush will be happening so she should run cool as a dream
