I thought about it. I think im just gonna leave them for now though. I dont mind the silver on black.


Thanks Sundownfire

I do have a little story that I was to lazy to write out yesterday. So originaly I tried to fire up the car before even having tuning software which I just got in the last week. I figured even with the green tops in there it should at least try to start and maybe idle. I got everything ready to go and when I turned the key it was almost like the battery was dead. It is a brand new battery and was reading 13 volts. I went through a bunch of other checks in my wiring, everything looked good so I figured maybe the injectors being so much bigger then stock it was not letting it turn over and felt like it had a hard time turning over, almost fighting it self. We unplugged the injectors and tried to crank it over and it turned over fast like it sopose to and we thought ok its the injectors. I left it at that until last week. I got my software, turned down the injector constant and was thinking right on she is gonna fire right up now. Not the case it was acting the same way, like the motor was really freaking hard to turn over. So now we are thinking what in the heck is going on. Maybe I have a really bad draw somewhere or maybe the starter is pooched and drawing way to many amps. Re checked that we had spark and fuel and we did. So what els can it be? Its gotta be timing. But how? I have not changed anything timing wise, I re checked the motor timing a boatlaod of times when the motor was on the engine stand so that cant be. I decided its time to investigate the timing a little more. I put a spark tester on #4 wire, and put a compression tester on cylinder #4, tried to start the car again and sure enough the spark is out to lunch, literaly sparking completely opposite of what it should be. So now im thinking what is going on, I must have buggered my wiring somewhere and was getting ready to pull out a bunch of the wiring and take it apart, start inspecting close etc. I glanced over at the 2.2 coil pack swap and though.......you know what, the coils can go on opposite sides of the module underneath. So the marked 1-4, and 2-3 where the wires go can be put on opposite what it should be. Jackass move of the year. I switched the wires to check first before switching the coils around and she fired right up lol. All this week iv been stressing about ripping back out the wiring, getting a new starter, which is another 250$ Sometimes its the smallest thing, I am glad I figured it out before throwing some parts and wasted time at it. I felt like such a tool lol Sorry for the long rant

Yah priced one out and it was 250, my face looked the same as the one you posted lol. It turned out I did not need the starter so all was good. I would have pulled one from the yard anyways.

Very clean set up....What cams are you running?


GMR has got nothing on this

Only a year and a half..........

Running the secret cams right now


"Straight roads are for fast cars, turns are for fast drivers"-Colin McRae

Upgrade them cams ASAP. As for the hole in the bumper it would look fine if the intercooler coverd up the whole hole. You know without showing the bumper support. Just pure intecooler showing through it.

Cams will be upgraded later down the road. I may or may not have HO cams and towers already..... Plan is to use it as it is for this season and build a block on my spare time for the future. Cams, 2.3 oil swap etc.

The intercooler is not that big. I thought about cutting the cross brace on the front to bring it up but I dont have any clearance issues and with it being on the smaller side I figured id just leave it on the bottom. The opening will help a lot and you can not see the cross brace or rebar throught the hole, only if you were to look from the bottom up into the bumper, even then its all black so you dont see it.


"Straight roads are for fast cars, turns are for fast drivers"-Colin McRae

Well guys the car is alive and seems to be working great. Got a bunk brand new blazer fuel pump that gave us some issues so we went to a racetronix pump that solved a bunch of tuning problems. Only running 5psi as of right now but planning on getting into the 10 range soon. I should have some pics and maybe a video in the next little bit. Stay tuned


Big thanks to Erik Nyman!!! Your help with the tuning has been incredible.


"Straight roads are for fast cars, turns are for fast drivers"-Colin McRae

Nice

A little change coming this winter, and the start of some new stuff










"Straight roads are for fast cars, turns are for fast drivers"-Colin McRae

those seats are freaking sweet







RIP JESSE GERARD.....Youll always be in my thoughts and prayers...

Some more progress. Things are going to be a bit different this year.
Rear bushing and hub spacer install. The rear bushings are a nightmare to get out.




Front end change







and this thing has been taking up most of my time as of late, just getting it ready for winter, doing some maintenance etc.





That was just before I lowered it. Sorry for some of the crappy BB pics, more to come for both cars over the winter break


"Straight roads are for fast cars, turns are for fast drivers"-Colin McRae

love everything except the front end change.
