Re: Last minute Mitsustyle Cookout Projects

Engine is out of car... Just got done cleaning, repainting, and rebuilding (Engine looks sweeeettt!!!)

Cleaning transmission

clean out engine bay

still porting out turbo but pretty much done

Waiting for a new clutch (will arrive on the 22 even though it was supposed to be here today!!!! damn them) so that will only prolong when the engine is going to be installed and breaking in the new clutch

rewiring the battery relocation

Installing an turbo timer and a AFC

hopefully have time to wash and wax everything

so much crap to do.... why am i here typing!!! I am going to work on my car...

Re: Last minute Mitsustyle Cookout Projects

I love to hear about the last minute projects. Keep them coming.

I'll just be happy to get my cars cleaned up. I'm done with my Stealth already. I buffed her out last Thursday and put it in the back of the garage with a car cover on it. But I still have three more to go. Ugh.

Of course, I have about one million other things I have to do this week. Its kind of stressful, but I get pumped just thinking about all the awesome Mitsus that will be there on Sunday.

later,
Curt

Engine is finally in, and then it started raining....

Engine bay is cleaned up (as good as I am going to get it anyway)

New clutch and flywheel installed

need to install transfer case
rewire cas sensor
put the wiring harness back on the engine
Break in new clutch
Make sure there isn't any boost creep
See if anyone has 550 injectors
....probably more to do
Put the interior back together

Looks like an all nighter

Re: Last minute Mitsustyle Cookout Projects

I pulled off the timing cover because, I had a massive oil leak going on. I found my oil filter housing is cracked. I'm picking one up today from Kyle at MAP cause hes a good friend to me and has a spare!!! Throw that back on and see if there is any other leaks. It starts kinda hard at this point but oh well. I can work on the tune a bit. I might drive it there im not sure. I dont have any insurance on it and, the car is rather loud at this point.
