Re: after 10 years its coming back to life

some parts showed up the other day. 1000cc injectors I got them in a trade. hts 45 and 90 coupler. just need the 45 and they were new on ebay together and I ended up getting them cheaper than just buying a 45 coupler. Also stm s.s. full clutch line it was the only black fri thing I bought.

got the boost,oil gauges hooked up and the aem wide band hooked up.
ran the oil line through a pair of stock holes in the car


I had some extra 3in pipe and 3in couplers laying around so I made a extra pipe to make a cold air intake for the car. It fits though the stock smic hole


got the broken bolt out of the tranny so I could mount the shifter cable bracket and get them on. After I got them on and the speed sensor in I got the upper piping on the car.

It is getting really close now

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life

Maybe I just missed it, but what are you using for airflow metering? Speed density? I'm glad to see this thing coming together!

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life

You'd just need a map sensor and the wiring wasn't that hard from what I remember. I just bought a iat pigtail from napa for a few bucks and wired it up myself.

Looks good though! Can't wait to see it running around this summer

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life

I have a cable for a maft set up to run it in the car so I think I will just cut it up to make the SD cable. It would be just like the one dsm link sells.

Also today I took the intake out,sanded it down and painted it. It is now hanging down stairs in front of the fire place drying Will get pics in the mooring.

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life

painted the intake pipe in the basement shop last night and used the gas fire place to get it to cure between coats. also cut about 2in off the cold pipe were it comes through in to the bumper the filter was lower than the bumper.

used some vac hose to make a buffer so it does not rattle on the frame

intake all back in

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life

thanks.
took the dash back out today to see what is going on with no lights when the door opens,no home link,no map lights. found a broken wire and got it fix but still no go. Got the wiring fixed for the front windows now they work. Still have to figure out the pass rear window since it does not work. also the top switch is not working.

I did start making a oil catch can. Took it out of the hatch and rewelded it since who ever made it did a crappy job. just have to get fittings to weld on and then paint it.

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life

cut the top off the sub box to give me more room in the trunk. did not want to take it all the way out if I ever want to put some kind of 10in sub in it. It had a 15in flat ppi sub back in the day. just have to make a new floor since the one I have for it is cut out for the sub.

also took the tan carpet off the front panel and put black carpet on it.

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life

got the white face over lays installed on the cluster and hvac controls

now it match's the auto meter and aem gauges

got all the green led's in the car also

took out the rear seat belt guides since I took the belts out of the rear years ago and plasti diped them


Did some cleaning in the garage and found a few parts I will put in the car.
found a set of boston pro 4.5 that will go in the rear. It has boston pro 6.5 in the doors already

was going to buy a 10in fan for the a/c fan but found one in a box

also found a set of cam lock black 4pt belts that were in my brother's old talon that I might put in the car. I would have to make a harness bar for them.
