Not sure you can get in Europe but get some POR 15 and do all the susp etc in this stuff.. stuff is awesome and will not come off and will not rust ever.. I am doing my st205 in this .. Also it dries in gloss black so all the bits underneath look brand new http://www.por15.com/POR-15-Rust-Preventiv...int/products/1/ Only place in Europe is Germany (as searched through the dealers list) however it reminds me two products available in here: Hammerite paint or Alkyton. However small update: It has begun! First results of sandblasting ![]() ![]() ![]() This post has been edited by malpaso: Feb 28, 2011 - 4:18 AM -------------------- No more replicas...

Oh wow, that's fast work. Ferdy, In this case I was lucky with progress. Next parts should be here by the end of the week and everything sandblasted and painted next Friday. So after 10days from now. At least there are a lot of other things to do so updates will be more often than once a week ![]() -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)

splendid ![]() Thanks a lot. From someone who put a lot of effort to the car as you it is the real compliment. I believe that no other problem occurs and that you will have your celi soon. Can't wait to see your car again ![]() You bet you see it first ![]() Again small update: wideband O2 sensor flange is ready ![]() ![]() And also OEM instructions how to maintain JDM car ![]() ![]() I know it is more for fun because now the engine will have different specs but it is so cute to see those instructions there and interesting to compare differences between markets when to change what, etc... only what I do not understand is what is that LLC??? -------------------- No more replicas...

Coolant! It is in years (年:)) and also it is mention difference between first change and other changes. The rest is absolutely clear (oil, oil filter, cam belt even also other things like clearances or idle rpm ![]() Only note about aircon filters is funny - "clean every 12months and replace after 50K kms". Manual A/C in European/US models has no filters to replace or clean as I know ![]() ![]() -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)

That's great! Another part from the schedule completed!
So the rest of the exhaust will fit without further modifications now, right? |

Looking good Martin, keep up the good work. I'll need to return and visit you again to see the finished version. ![]() Thank you Collin. I really bet it will be different car than you remember ![]() Now. Let's look at the "to do list": - install all refurbed parts back (in next 5days hopefully happen) - make and install cold intake box - install trans shaft, rear diff and supports - finally install exhaust and... at last switch the engine on and make running for 30 minutes. - very first map check to avoid any detonation with stock PFC map - check wiring and Datalogit logs (especially O2 sensor) - check everything (leaks/levels/pressures etc...) - had a little trip to control boost controller is working That would be the moment I will travel to Italy and to follow with: - 1000 kms running in - change filters and oil - Dyno tune - recheck everything (leaks/levels/pressures etc...) Get her home ![]() So bit shorter, but still a lot of things to do... -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)

When you're done, I hope you have a picture of the underbody of your car on a lift. I want to see it all.
