Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Nice cam gears!! Are you gonna have your 255 feed that Bosch 044 then or what? Thats what it is right?

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

that is what I will be doing is using the 255 to feed the 44. just need to pick up 2 push lock fittings and get it put in. then save up some more cash and off to Shane for a tune as it sits now

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

You should powder coat those wiper arms, too.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

nothing has really haped to the car in a long time it has just been sitting. I have no money to finnish up the 2.4 for it. So I have been thinking of selling off almost all of my car's lately not sure if I will for sure or not yet.

but what would go if I start selling things off
the evo
the spyder
the hatch
the 2g gsx auto (what I am getting for the 93 mirage) this will be sold for sure

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Evo 1-3 doors are much heavier compared with stock, Because side impact beam was installed on the inside of each door.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Uh wat...?

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

I would guess that the evo is worth the most money, then he could finish his other projects.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

it has been a long time since I have done anything to the car since the engine died last april.

got the extra evo engine bay harness out of the bin today. Since I have not really done much to the car in a while I am starting to redo all the wiring in the engine bay and the engine harness. The fuse box will be in the car by the glove box. once it is all in I will extend the wires that will need to be extended out. also so much better than the harness in the car that has a ton more wiring with the abs.


here is the start of it. all marked to what they are for
http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...o/IMG_9704.jpg

after a few hours now just to take the car apart then get some new loom when I get it in and all hidden

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

took the engine harness out so I can take it all apart and shorten up wires and reloom the full thing and get it tucked. Also got the engine bay harness out so I can get the other one that I took all the extra wiring out of that was not needed. One of the nuts came off the front bumper bracket and had to cut a hole in the frame rail to get the bumper off the car.
http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...421_153841.jpg
http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...421_153858.jpg

started on the right side of the engine bay. Took out the cusco brake stop bracket,brake booster,clutch master,line and slave.
Then I went after the body glue with the torch and then the wire wheel to get the car ready to seam weld the car to make it stiffer. Also wire wheeled all the bolt holes that are not need on the frame rail.
http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...421_153830.jpg

got all the bolt holes welded shut just have to go after them with the flapper disk to make them look better.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

I like, hopefully you have time to paint her this summer. :)

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

The parts are spray painted it is the same paint I used for the brembos.

The car will get painted this summer since a cam broke the windshield so I am going to do the roof skin and paint it now. My parents gave me the money for the sealer and paint money for x-mas and my b-day.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Blasted and hot tanked the oil pan at work last week. I got around to painting it yesterday. It is flat black with a satin clear.

Also decided to paint the oil catch can also. If I get tired of it I can blast it and polish it later on.
