Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

Come on now you should know better. The burning oil was an excuse to go ALL OUT!

Should I consider it a problem?

No! Anyone know of some 278 or 285 35-18 and some 255-35-18s. Looking for some alright used ones to put on the new rims for now until the car is completely done.
It runs but will be torn down and I am not cutting corners so the build WILL be done right!

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

You said your dsm was going to be a stock rebuild too.

You might not think its a problem, I bet your old lady might, lol.

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

Fix it up, and sell it. Make some cash.

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

Not selling it. I dont care to make any $ on this one as it is already getting fun to build and I have not even done much to it yet. Got some sore goodies. Im done buying for a while and I am going to tear apart and clean.

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

Do you have the pic of the supra that you texted to Aaron and me, with those rims on it?

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

Ill look for it.

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

Well a buddy and I started taking the power plant out of this thing and I tell you this is a bunch of crap literally. This is quite different then the DSM's I am used to. Im going to put all of the useless garbage in a 55 gallon garbage can and see how much shit was not needed and the weight savings of it all too. We worked on it for at least 5-6 hours and I would say have it half to 3/4 out.

I also ordered custom made pistons from CP which are 9.5:1 compression :) too bad it will take a month to get them. The engine is going to WWW.MAPERFORMANCE.COM to be torn down, machined, bored over, looked at, this and that, and re-assembled.

The next steps are to actually get the engine out, bring it to MAP, tear all of the stuff off and out of the car for a full paint job, order cams, valves, springs and retainers, gaskets, turbo, manifold, tuning software of choice, piping for a custom 3" intercooler and 3.5" exhaust setup, tires... ok Im stopping right there because I can already see this thing costing me but it will be worth it. Photos of progress to follow.

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

SHiet.

Sorry I couldn't make it last night, sounds like you made some good progress and that this thing will be rolling first day of spring.

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

HA! Ya right maybe this time next year. Are you going to pay for the built auto, stall, new billet turbo, fuel system......

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

I forgot about those items. :O(

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

Yeah what a pita. I hope once it's out, things will make more sense. That wiring harness, driveshaft, intake plenum, can all go to hell.

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

Yea you laughed at me for not getting the intake off after forever it seemed and how many hours later did I hear that you still had not gotten the drive shaft off? Did you ever get it off?

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

Nope. Gotta get the rear end up in the air so we can spin the shaft just a hair. Couldn't reach that very last bolt holding it to the rear end.

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

Need moar pics foolio

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

We did try to get a couple pics of the last "hoorah"...

Re: 6 cylinders & 2 turbos, for now
 

Well the motor and trans are out! Thanks a million to Brandon for busting ass and a few knuckles on helping me get this hog out of there. Now the fun begins. Here are a few photos.
