Car doesnt smoke one bit, so the turbo was the problem from beginning. Going from a 14b to a 20g NON ebay knock off, It dont start boost till 3800 RPM and after 5psi, its all game :wiggle:. The WG is hooked straight up to the compressor and set 10psi. Hope you enjoy pics. Lots of new stuff coming and this is a nice clean ride:ropenana:

 

[JuGs]

Holy shit all those parts look like I seen them somewhere. Yeah man hopefully in 2 weeks I can make it back out there and do your timing for you. That belt is toast and I wanna slap who ever had this car before you. I will not let this car let you down. Ill do what I can to keep you running at its best. Im going to get my motor pulled here in a few days and start the BSE. So once thats done Ill get that blown 14b rebuilt and we can do a few pulls.

 

[wickedz]

how many cars you want as a head start? hehe

um if you cant make it this weekend, I may have to take it o a shop. I cant wait 2 weeks

 

[JuGs]

I know how you feel. Im sure I cant make it this weekend, but ill talk with the wife and see what she says. I got most of the parts I needc to fix mine again just need crank sensor I need to get that turbo rebuilt. Im guessing another 350 and Ill have her running again.

Head start Ill give you 2 cars man you will need it.

 

[adamtsi]

Looks like you're starting off on the right foot!

 

[JuGs]

Right path who ever was the previous owner need to be slaped. I like to ghetto rig stuff/ half ass it when it comes to MY car but the way this was set up made me look like a professional. BOV was hooked to the WG/compressor housing and intake mani(never seen it that way) I heard of people doing it that way but its was totaly wrong. All the IC pipes were exhaust piping welded up/painted. Zipp ties were comming out valve cover literaly under the gasket inside the head. The turbo was a actual small 16g just it was past blown(fixable tho). I gave up everything I had to make him almost perfrect and steer away from tha mass boost leak he was having. More work need to be done and that will soon be addresses and this should be a nice running car after Im dont with it. Granted he will still be slower than me but Im ok with that.

 

[adamtsi]

Wow , I believe there are way too many people out there that don't need wrenches in their hands and I believe the previous owner was definitely one by the way you described that

 

[JuGs]

Yes he was. I cant say a whole lot but(i half ass it too) that was some of the worst work I have seen. Not even 1 t-bolt clamp(condition of turboI can see why tho) bad hook up on BOV major oil leaks(has oil pan gasket) Whom ever had the car had money to do the 6 bolt swap but didnt wanna keep it running good I guess. The head looked brand spanking new once we got VC off I mean better than a fresh rebuilt head. I was suprised from how the worked looked that the inside was so nice. Any ways Im hoping to have his car actully boosting here in a few weeks and then its time to start mine again. Ohh I almost for got hangers were holding the IC piping up too. Sorry Wickedz I have to put it out there.

 

[wickedz]

Well yes Aaron you did help alot, BUT DONT FORGET I PUT AS MUCH WORK INTO THIS AS YOU HAVE. Im hoping we BOTH get our cars running right.

UPDATE as of 2/10/10

Updates, Well with all new gaskets and whatnot on the way in mail, I desided to clean it all up.

BEFORES of dirty and OIL build up

Do work!!! It's starting to look better

starting?????????


Hell thi car has already seen a complete 180 degree turn for the best. I havnt even owned it for a week yet

 

[JuGs]

Yea Paul we have done a good job on recovering the car. I hope my next week we can do timing and do a BLT and see how she boosts after all that.

 

[-token4g63-]

Nice ride bro good work

 

[helluvadsm]

Thank God you took that high rise off!!!

 

[wickedz]

I have the high rise on the car. the OEM GST wing, not that aftermarket fiberglass one

 

[92_6bolt_1290]

while you're revamping her with a 20g you might wanna go to poly engine mounts. they make hitting boost feel more sexy

 

[jestoy7]

Hey man, I'm in Jacksonville FL too. There is a big DSM meet this weekend:

Southeast Regional 4G63 Meet ~ February 12th-14th 2010 - DSMpurity.com Forums

Looks like you are making good progress. Also, I have a set of front and back energy suspension motor mounts that you can have for $20. I never installed them.

 

[JuGs]

I wanted to make it to that damn meet. But after 2 weeks I wont have insurance or a motor in the car. I might not even have my car. Im in to much of a clutter f*** I might just have to get rid of it well the shell at least. Well Paul keep me updated with the progress man Im hoping next we we can do the timing and almot be done with your car. At least till fuel upgrades start comming in and getting her tuned.

 

[laser92DSM]

Car has come a long way since the last time you posted it up with the videos. Good Luck with it!

Sucks, but you can still make it out and meet us and see the cars. You'll know we we'll be if you want to show up.

 

[wickedz]

can I buy your poly mounts and you ship them? PM me seriously NOW is the best time for installment when the car is up on jacks and everything out of way.

dsmtuners FTW

 

[jestoy7]

Just PM'ed you. It would be sweet if you guys can make it to the event on Saturday or Sunday. If you know any other DSMers let them know. 2 years ago we had 65+ DSMs.

 

[wickedz]

Well I tryed to get the car up as high as I could for a better job. I still see some spots I missed, which makes me mad but what can you do.

Nice, looking good there Paul, starting to really learn a few new things and get it accomplished.

BTW that wasn't a 14b.
