Some one must have been sipping on a little too much adult beverage last night! LOL

Looks awesome bro! What size turbo is that? I'd go with the oem corners as well (the darker shade of amber looks cleaner IMO).

tom, stay with the oem corners, all the way

turbo is a t3/to4e .60 .63 if I remember right, I just looked at the damn thing yesterday! hahaha

And ya, I'm gonna stay with the OE corners.

Alrighty then. I worked on the vert a bit more today. I ran the fuel lines and mounted the regulator. Also had to make a adapter bracket for the fuel rail. Be advised, the Greddy top feed rail is NOT a direct bolt on for the short port intake manifold! I think it came out ok for a quickie. The injectors are just used ones for the mock up. Anyways, on to some new pics!

Fuel Lab reg with a Tovic carbon look pressure gauge. Also notice the nifty fuel filter courtesy of my buddy over at Fujii SPL.

A quickie of the rail in hover mode with the invisible injectors.

Finally, my quickie adapter bracket for the rail. Note: I'm waiting for my injectors to show up before I mod the spacers that came with the Greddy rail, just in case they are a bit taller/shorter.

That's all for now! I'm probably going to install the Blitz down pipe, Catco cat and Greddy Ti-C exhaust tomorrow.

Post by **jspec603** » Fri Jun 20, 2008 4:57 pm

So as stated, the full exhaust has been installed. Blitz down pipe, Catco high flow and Greddy Ti cat back. Also had my buddy finish up the intake and hot pipe too. I've also been working on some guages mounted in the instrument cluster surround, running wires and wires and more wires. Anyways, on to the pixtars!

Ohhhh...Ahhhh.

Hot pipe!

Intake! Still going to make a bracket or somthing to stop vibration. Will also be replacing that silly filter too.

And another perdy engine bay shot!

Also, on Monday I'll be dropping off my fenders and kit to a local body shop. Should be starting it up soon too! YAY! That's all for now folks!

very few engine bays make me jealous of SR's, they generally arent my deal, but that is CLEAN!!!!

Post by **BigMACKenzie** » Sat Jun 21, 2008 3:33 am

/agree. This car just keeps getting better and better. This is the new gold standard for me. Good show man, good show.

I know you already stated that you're gonna stick with the OEM corners, but I thought I might just offer up another option that I personally think would look nice as hell...

If you can pick up a can of Niteshades (or whatever the hell it's called) lens paint, you might try doing a smoked effect on the clear corners, just enough to match up with the OEM Halogen headlamps.

I just think it would look clean... and I have a slight OCD about symmetry so the differing shades of amber would piss me off everytime I saw em... and it would be in the back of my head whenever I was around the car.

Post by **jspec603** » Sat Jun 21, 2008 7:48 pm

I've actually thought about doing that. I've also thought about trying to paint or tint (with a film) the clear corners solid amber, along the lines of the Tomei covers. It may/may not look decent. I do agree about the different shaded OE corners. I personally think it looks like crap. Thanks for the suggestion!

Looking bad-***! Wish I could have th etime to make my engine bay all cleaned up, but I have to get my build done ASAP! haha

Keep up the good work.

Thanks again everyone for all the nice words! I'll be sure to post more and more pics as this car comes together. I dropped off everything to the body shop today to get color matched, should have it all back by the end of the week. Oh and I got my top working again on Sat!

keep the pink bumper

Post by **jspec603** » Thu Jun 26, 2008 3:50 pm

It's alive! Started the vert tonight! Only ran it for a min cause there is no coolant in it yet. The Greddy Ti exhaust sounds soooo good! I'm so super excited!

Post by **x240xdrifter** » Thu Jun 26, 2008 4:00 pm

YAY!!!!!! I want vids now!

Post by **S15nS13vert** » Thu Jun 26, 2008 5:06 pm

i agree /\ /\ /\ /\

Post by **jspec603** » Fri Jun 27, 2008 1:27 am

Maybe once I get some coolant in it so I can run it longer. This gives me even more motivation to get it finished!
