yep, you heard me. I'm coming back to the 5sfte community. Doing things a little different this time around, here's what I can remember so far that I'm doing differently:
Genuine HKS BOV, the new 2007 design Got my injectors cleaned and flow tested at witchhunter. They were is poor condition before and are great now! Going with a SAFCII instead of a neo. I got it for about $75 cheaper, and it measures knock. I was gonna get a greddy emanage ultimate, but I don't have a laptop to tune it with and it just looked too complicated for me to figure out how to tune it by myself, so maybe I'll upgrade later. Got a custom stailness braided oil feed and drain line kit made specifically for my 5sfte. I just gotta weld a fitting onto my oil pan but I'm having a hard time finding someone willing to do it. I'm fixing my radiator fan which was broken before. the motor fell out of the blade cause it was hooked up wrong I'm using a regular sized radiator instead of the koyo, for a little more engine bay room I'm relocating the battery to the trunk and I'm cutting my IC piping down a lot for a cleaner install, might even paint them like LewFX that's all I can think of right now, pictures to come. hope to be running by the end of the week after 6 months of down time! -------------------- 94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |

This is what I'm atalking about. Some of you kids get pissed when I reply to your posts. If you're going to post such non-sense, you need to have the thick skin to take what others have to say instead of getting pissy and smart-ass about it.
"I'm fixing my radiator fan which was broken before. the motor fell out of the blade cause it was hooked up wrong" How did that happen? "btw, I got my oil pan back and the drain line did turn out to be about an inch too short" What's so hard about taking a piece of string and measuring the distance between the two components? I mean, it worked with helicopters I worked on when I was in the Army. "I put some heat wrap stuff around my oil cooler lines to keep them from melting again!" Rubber lines for an oil cooler? Plus, the lines are supposed to be as far from a heat source as possible, so the cooler can effectively do, you know, what it's supposed to do. "I tee'd off from the throttle body coolant lines." Aren't those coolant lines supposed to run hot coolant to warm up the throttle body during cold weather? What are you doing feeding hot coolant to your turbo? I'll be back with some more. -------------------- |
