picked up a head gasket from spaz yesterday and got the head on. Also clocked the evo 3 turbo and had to cut the bolt out of the o2 housing since I could not get both nuts on the bolts with the down pipe on. Just used a new bolt since the flange was slotted to start with and was able to use the stock nuts to bolt it all up with the help of spaz.
It is the first time in 10 years the car has had a full engine and tranny in it It is getting closer
It is getting cold out now. I worked on it a little bit today. got the a/c pump on,alt on, put power steering back in the car. also rebuilt the tial waste gate and made a j pipe.
Dad came by today and we put the timing belt on the car. Also put the cas and rail/injectors on to seal the rest of the engine up till I get a intake manifold. and got the lower piping all hooked up
also put the winter tires and rims on the hatch so it is ready to go now
Been working out in the cold the last 2 days. I got a new rear bumper on the car now I found at the junk yard. it has no holes in it like the old one. It was cheaper to buy this one over me fixing the old one on the car. also picked up a heat shield for 5.00 local. The evo 3 intake manifold and coil bracket showed up picked it up for 75.00 shipped since I sold the 2 that I had years ago.
What I got done. timing cover is on all pullys and belts are on the car. got the oil cooler mounted and -an lines on the ofh to the oil cooler. Got the evo 3 intake on, all the wiring is on. Just have to make the harness for the 94 cas.
I am almost down to what I can do with out buying parts to get it all the way done. I cant wait to get it running it had been a long 10 years of it sitting
thanks Chris. It is on its way to the spring cruise
just got done baking the head lights took out the amber turn lights. heated in the over @ 350 for 15min. With them that warm I was able to pull them apart and put them back together with the glue still hot to get them to seal back up.
I got the head light's in. the wire is broken some were for the pass side low beam. Other wise all the other lights work.
Also when to radio shack and picked up 2 8ohm 20watt resistors to go in line to get the rear turn signals to work right and rewired the brake lights,reverse lights to work with the talon tails just like they do on the talon from the factory. I got out all the trunk panels out and back in the car. I just have to cut the top off the sub box that is fiber glassed in and make a new floor so I will have a box to store stuff in also.
It is getting closer
