Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Had some good friends help me out with the welding, now I need to install the new cooling system (Thanks Carltalon), my VC with (2) -10an lines, calan catch cans, and UR Ultra light PS pulley with all the latter being powdercoated Satin Black. (Thanks Dark2g).

Just need to find time between work, house shopping, idiot landlords flooding my bathroom/hallway, etc. Week of the 9th I should be able to get some stuff done.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Awesome to see you've had some time to work on it now. Feels good to get shit done that isn't just cleaning up after the kids haha

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

yeah it really does. Just need life to stop throwing hurdles. But it feels really good to feel determined about stuff again and make progress with it.

But it's also thanks to a lot of good people around me too. This upcoming week I should make some good progress.

Sorry for the lame, no pic updates.

Last night, cleaned up a spare oil pan and oil drain line. Got it installed, along with the Tcase.
Put on the thermostat housing tonight, need to find my sensors now and I can't find my TB.
It's gonna be all kinds of random shit that will kill me with this car.

Tomorrow I'll pick up a FP manifold and try to get the turbo system all bolted up (exhaust, IC pipes, then I need to figure out an intake pipe and such.)

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Another lame no pic update.

But now finally have all the pieces I think. FUck i need to order a battery, but I found my S90 buried in the attic at my moms, then found a box of hardware of mine at my ex's.

Hoping to have it done soon, gonna stay up late the rest of this week. But I need to pack to move, pack to get the place I live sold/shown/listed, ready to host family members in about 2 weeks for 5 days. It never ends.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Left to do:
Fluids
Front and rear motor mount (gonna be a bitch)
Get IAT bung welded and reinstall upper IC pipe
Boost leak test
Order spal 13" fans x 2
install current single 10" fan for now and new radiator
Cut mounts for radiator
Install shift box
Pray it fucking works with no major issues.

Longest story ever.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Went to start it last week, found my water pipe was checked and then it wouldn't start. Pulled the injectors and they are currently with the injector cleaning place. I'll get them back Friday when I get back into town.
But he is saying they are seized so i might be fuckdd on that end. Goal was to be driving it by this upcoming Saturday for Jaxon's birthday.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Good news, my injectors were salvageable.
I'll pick them up this evening and see I can get this tucker started. It's been 4 years to the day since it has run.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Woo Woo!

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Get that thing going! Hopefully that was the only issue.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

:D

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

It runs!
Thanks to Mike K. He came over and helped teach me some SD stuff.
Been driving it a bit and it's fun.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

w000t w000t!

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Awesome 👍

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Been crappy about updating this, but I've been driving it a bit.
Turned up the boost on the 16G and I've found an ignition miss. I need to figure out if its wires or coils.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

I think i have an extra set of wires around, I can look if you want.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

I appreciate it, I have a new set of NGKs I got from rockauto.com.
Just need some time to mess with the car.
