[JayRome]

[JayRome]

LSD fun

conversion shafts

609/055 high velocity intake pipe

Alloy heat shield

 

[JayRome]

Finally finished..

 

[Beaubo]

Your engine bay looks amazing!
I wish I had the fabrication skills you have.
Some of the things you implemented I couldn't even dream of in my wildest dreams let alone build it and test the idea out.

Keep up the amazing work. I look forward to what you come up with next.

 

[JayRome]

Hehe cheers!

slight redesign of the hot side cooler pipe..

so took it for a quick shake down (fuel tank is still missing a cover).. and the turbo is hanging to be boosted!!

 

[dsmcrzy]

Love the intake. Cool simple idea that you didn't need complex tools for.

 

[JayRome]

75amp alt decided to shit it self... I had a 110 amp GTO/3000GT 6G72TT Alt lying around... not a straight fit, but all the wiring is the same

Mock up

fitted

almost ready for the streets

new home for the battery

And gooooold...

 

[JayRome]

Jap spec projector fog lights with caps and no CRACKS!!!!

Designing rear CV cups for 3 bolt rear shafts to adapt to LSD (no longer needing to find "4 bolt parts")

on photo: LSD cup, Front inner CV cup, Rear 3 bolt inner universal CV, Customized cup

Unfinished prototype, but should be thicker and stronger then 4 bolt cups,

Installed

This looks fantastic. I love seeing a car that is built after years of ownership and desire to make it into something.

Now thats a build. Looking forward to seeing it finished

 

[JayRome]

Got sick of cleaning the leather/rubber shifter boot

And another exhaust to give it a little bit of stealth..

Mazda RX3 rad decided to die.... so replaced with VW MK2 radiator (slightly modified)
Modified stock fan to work (much quieter then slimline fan)

Upgraded fuel lines to nylon/stainless braided -6 line, weld on bung for fuel rail, Sard FPR

cleaned and painted cooler and rad

 

[JayRome]

Finally tracked down an Evo7 EVOLUTION Valve cover..

 

[JayRome]

Not bad heat sheild...

and not sure if i'm going to use this yet... might be a tad over kill

 

[GST with PSI]

Jay, this is such an epic build. I just picked up another Galant VR4, and have some cool ideas for it. Some of those ideas are coming straight out of your thread, so I hope you don't mind! Keep up the good work.

 

[92AWDHX40]

Hey that's really a cool setup.

 

[JayRome]

switched turbo's .... again....

Evo7 RS TD05HRA 16G6 9.8T with the Titanium Aluminide front wheel, very responsive stock turbo.

custom braided clutch lines, a hell of a lot better clutch pedal feel

 

[johnmel]

WOW this is a amazing build man

 

[JayRome]

Wired in CP9A Evo 6 ECU with patch loom and mounted on stock ecu mounts

Meticulous work. The time spent definitely shows in the final product. Great build!
