Updated Pics: Just needs a tune now

Post by **accel junky** » Thu Mar 10, 2005 3:02 pm

Here are some new pics with my body peices put back on and the coilovers installed. All I need to do now is tune the SAFCII over spring break. I'm waiting on the PFC to be repaired.

She looks good!

Is that a T3/T4 on there? How much power are you looking for?

Yep, specifically a Garrett T3/60-1 (.70 cold .82 hot)

Looking for 350whp to start with the SAFCII and when my PFC comes in, I'll go for 400-450whp depending on how my RB20 transmission holds up (long story, osaka ripped me off).

Man I got to give you some real credit for this. It looks really nice and clean. Nothing flashy, just clean the way I like cars.

I know you have had a lot of ups and downs, and you got to be pumped about the results.

Looks damn sexy! I give you props I want something like that when mine is done. No body kit no blingy wheels just a clean fast a$$ car that looks good from the factory.

Israel!? Did I sell you an RB25 turbo on ebay one time?

Thanks for the compliments!

looks real good. i tried doing my lights like that but they keep going back to normal while im still screwing with that little nob. can anyone help me with that?

Accel Junky - I <3 your car man. So clean, I dig it. Clean engine bay, super clean FMIC setup, that's how I want my car to be.. (one day )

How did you tackle the engine/transmission mounting? Mckinney or custom-made? 350hp from rb20? I'm sold, forget 4 cyl. it's all about straight 6 action! Good luck in your pursuit of power!

cheers,C

Big Nate: I just did that by hand, but they go down when you turn the lights on, so I'm seeking an answer as well. I think its been covered before, I'm sure.

S13 Charlie: Thanks for the props. The motor is an RB25, not a 20. I used the skyline crossmember and KA trans mount (modified). I would have used the mckinney kit except I somehow got shafted with an RB20 trans, so it wouldnt line up right.

Yahoo I'm not the only one shafted, I got an rb20 trans on my 25 too. yahoo go us.

I'm trying to wire and connect up my motor this today and this weekend. I am getting so syked. had my donor car since october

you car is SWEET but it's not how you stand by your car it's how you drive your car. what coilovers you have?

just jealous. yours looks so much better than mine. I still need.Greddy Intake, multi core radiator, suspension.

Looks good man. You used the SS autochrome manifold right? What injectors are you using? Mine is almost maxed out at only 9.5psi. Whats going on with the power fc anyway? BTW, you know that some lady messed up my S15 front and GTR intercooler?

Post by **fly240** » Fri Mar 11, 2005 12:25 pm

Hey accel junky... How did you get your turbo to sit up so nice..did you custoomize your self or you got it from some where else...and where did you get your pfc... thank you

Post by **accel junky** » Fri Mar 11, 2005 6:31 pm

Miata Master: I'm not alone!! Coilovers are Cusco's w/ Camber plates and adj dampening. Bought them used on ebay from a seller who sells them constantly for $500. Only took me an hour to install, easiest install EVER. Oh.....I won't be standing by it... I'll be hauling a$$ in it...well if the 20 trans doesn't meltdown.

y3llows14: Yes on the SS. Can't tell you about quality yet because the most I've driven the car is 30min straight under part throttle. Still looks good though. The turbo and wastegate and downpipe have been on it for 3 months now sitting in my garage, so it had held up in that sense.

My injectors are PE 550cc, I'll let you know how they perform next week. Expensive as ALL GET OUT ($800), but so are all side feeds.

The power fc is getting sent to Japan to be repaired. Remember that thread on freshalloy you sent me? Well, a guy that works for/owns maybe optionimports.com, mike lin, has a contact in japan that helped get his own PFC to Apexi for repair. So I'm doing that, just it might take 2 months.

That sucks a$$ so bad that your s15 front and IC got wrecked. I'm constantly worrying about getting in a wreck with the 240. ALL the money is under the hood, ya know? Hopefully your insurance company will be cool about it.

You should come to our Berry Car Show on April 16th man. E&E will be there with a bunch of RB cars and so will mine. Check my sig for the link. There WILL be a dynojet there as well.

Fly240: The turbo is an aftermarket Garrett T3/60-1. The reason it looks bada$$ (not tooting my own horn here) is because it is top-mounted with a top-mount manifold, a common thing for the inline-6 folk (and others).

looking real good man. going to have a simular setup myself, but my motor gave out, so it gave me the excuse to get forged internals. Keep us updated on you power goal and times.

Didn't think there was an intake mani like that available for our cars? Nice what kind? and where'd you get it?

Car looks better everytime.

Post by **accel junky** » Mon Mar 14, 2005 7:52 am

Nick, its a GReddy manifold...for the rb25....thats in my engine bay...lol

I'm REALLY being sarcastic, I'm not an *******.

Post by **goofynick6** » Mon Mar 14, 2005 7:57 am

HAHA, see I thought you had an RB25, but I read quickly through this post and saw you said "I'll see how my RB20 holds up", but you were referring to the transmission and I missed that.

I was excited for a minute!
