Well the JMF catch can and SMIM should be on their way shortly.

Also just picked up a Used Laptop for Link. I had been using a real old Sony thing that got the job done, but this one should be a little bit nicer.

Went to install the fuel feed today, and was taking pictures to make a little write up article for anyone else looking to do this. I quickly found out the adapter fitting that screws into the OEM fuel filter is the wrong thread pitch. I edited my prior post with the part numbers in case anyone else was looking to do this. Originally I thought the banjo bolt thread was 12mm x 1.5, but it is actually 12mm x 1.25mm. Just putting that out there for anyone else.

very nice. my smim will be here soon also coming from japan

Yesterday
-Installed the Dual 255 pump setup yesterday. Tested the fuel system for leaks and so far so good.
-Attempted to install new fuel feed line but found I had a wrong fitting so the stock one is back on for the time being.


Today
-Got the oil drain for the turbo fixed up as it was kind of rigged earlier causing a leak.
-Put the EGT probe into the manifold.
-Primed the whole system with oil about 10 times just to be safe. No visual leaks as of yet.
-Put the front bumper and lenses back on.

-Right now Saables Gobbles is charging up the battery a bit before I go and just crank her over and make sure she fires up. There's no exhaust so it'll be loud, and will probably idle like crap considering the O2 sensor is just laying in the engine bay because it has no exhaust to screw into yet. Exhaust should be started sometime this week hopefully.

Looking good, are those HIDs on the Saab? They look bright as hell!

Ignore the flames, exhaust should be going on sometime this week hopefully. I'm just glad she started up and actually started to idle semi decently.

And yes, the Saab has HID's. Maybe the Talon will someday too.

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

yay it runs

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

woot~! its alive :)

since i put in my jdm headlights, i cant use my HID kit anymore. i dont remember what harnesses you put in your car (the ones i picked up for you), but its an H4/9003 bulb. you know you want to let the ricer out of you just a little haha ;)

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

nice! Glad it runs!

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

Pretty sure that is the harness I put in there. It's the same bulbs that the green dragon used.

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

Woot! Now get some exhaust on that beast and get it out on the street!

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

Towing it up to Momin tonight, and he's going to get at it once he has all the piping!

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

Got some other misc stuff done. Had to slot some holes to lower the hood latch a bit to get it to fit better. Also put the hood pins on which helped as well. Hood fitment is much better now then it was originally. Also got the vent attached to the new hood. Put in the new front speakers (thanks mr. hill). Got the interior back together for the most part.

Rinsed off a lot of the dust. It's still dirty but looks a lot better. Cousin should be here shortly to tow her away!

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

Couple things that arrived in the mail the other day.
- JMF Race Manifold.
- JMF Dual Chambered Catch Can.

Exhaust is still under construction. Hope to have her back soon!!

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

Also got the laptop in the mail! Got Windows loaded on it. I'm real happy with it for paying only $185 shipped. It's extremely light too which will be nice.

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

looking good

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

Nice. Where did you get the laptop from?

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

Ebay. Post 161 actually has the link to the auction I won.

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

Catch Can is dope.

Re: My Winter Upgrades
 

FedEx man left me yet another gift on my doorstep. Who keeps sending me these wonderful things??? :)

17x8 Rota Boost's
35mm offset
Bronze

No tires yet though. If anyone has some decent input or recommendations for a good size to go with, and a good brand that is a good medium between performance and price, I'm all ears. I'm currently researching that right now. I currently have 16's so I need new tires, but I was fairly happy with the Fuzion's I had on there before. Good bang for the buck. But I may need something slightly better now.
