Idaho Tuner's 240/|SR Build thread

[idahotuner]

im liking the progress. how much is the entire z32 brake setting going to cost?

around 500 probably.

here is a pic of toms car thati really liek except for it is outta focus, but you can kinda see waht i mean by a hot rod look from behind.

my wheels will stock out a little farther. which is the hot rod look i am talking about.

OK, we are pretty much halfway through the month and you said you'd be running your car by the end of the month... Is this still gonna happen or no?

Edit: BTW i updated my thread!

we are half way through the month and my car is sitting there waiting for a test run. i am just wating for my suspension. Damn PBM need to figure out a quicker way to get their sh*t in stock. i really hope it is worth the wait.

as far as paint i really doubt that i will have it painted by the end of the month. but i will have a few test runs under my belt and have gone over everything to tighten it down for the last time as far as stuff i have taken apart.

i checked out your update man. i need to get my stero set up figured out.

[pflicht]

So you're only waiting on suspension??? That must suck balls!

[idahotuner]

Yeah tell me about it. i think dan at PBM is getting sick of me askign when the coilovers are going to be instock.

[tEknoS13]

[idahotuner]

i have been searching and cant find a write up on how to hardwire the fuel pump if any one could hook me up with a link to a how to.

[tEknoS13]

u got mail! what do u mean by hardwire? i always hear it but not sure what it means lol.

[tEknoS13]

agreed...

[idahotuner]

it is using a smaller gauge wire to power the fuel pump. when your running at higher RPM's and drawing more current, that current can actually get there.

[tEknoS13]

understood.

[idahotuner]

well i am in the process of uploading videos to youtube. you can heard the idle, but once the car warmed up it went away.

the ecu learned everything and it is running great now.

[pflicht]

upload videos to dailymotion.com as well.... i wanna watch the videos!

[Slideways^Jordan]

nice exhuast clip did you ever find out whats wrong with the ideal?

[idahotuner]

here isa pic of my engine completely done. I just have to mount the catch can, and adjust the throttle bracket.

[idahotuner]

nice exhuast clip did you ever find out whats wrong with the ideal?

the ecu just had to do a little bit of learning.

so i am gettigna deal on Z32 aluminum calipers. if i sell jsuta few more parts i will buy thm other wise i have to wait tell the end of the month.

[sbird1]

See second video. Yes, the idle issue is resolved. That thing sounds MEAN.

[idahotuner]

thanks man. i really want ot drive it now. but it is taking forever for my suspension to get here.

[Didderson]

Man she sounds GREAT! I'm so glad you fixed the problems. Nico should pay for your gas so you can tour the country showing off the build cuz i really want to see it on the East syde.

When I rev my engine by using the TB with the hood open it hurts my ears. Doesn't sound like yours is as loud, do u have a cat? Maybe u didn't take it to WOT.

Can't wait for the car to be on the streets.

[pflicht]

yay! pickshurz!!!! looks great!

that be awesome if nico paid for my gas. haha i would love to hit up some meets with you guys over there. i am not reving it to WOT cause it gets so loud haha. the video doesnt do it justice.

i dont have a cat. i have a resonator cat delete and a resonator section.

i have to figure out how to get my Greddy sticker to stay on the intake manifold.

[idahotuner]

o k so i got a question for you brake smart people. why do i need a different booster and BMC for the z32 brakes?

[Slideways^Jordan]

Becuase if you dont change the BMC with the Z32 BMC the pedal will be all mushy and wont have a more effeciant stopping force to back up all the pistons upgraded on all four calipers. You can keep your Brake booster you dont have to change that.

[White Comet]

around 500 probably.

see thats my only thing right there, i cant justify spending that much. my q45 setup costs less then half of that

[duffman1278]

You don't really need the 1-1/16 BMC, you CAN use the 240 one, but just like Jordan said, it'll feel mushy. You could always put them on, drive it for awhile and save up for the BMC later. I heard it makes a HUGE difference.

[sbird1]

I drove with Z32 30mm brakes on my old S13 with 0 problems for about a year or more. If anything, it gives you more of an "all or nothing" feel, but it's not bad at all. I personally think the Z32 BMC is a waste of time and money unless you're going to be doing some serious auto-X'in. My .02!

EDIT: Yes, I had front and rear Z32's on.
