Mounts..

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/sr%20swap/P5100389.jpg

The mounts give you a lot more room to work and and nice and stiff...

[Zach-sr]

pretty decent job man.
Thanks man. You were actually the one that inspired me to tuck and use tex flex.

[Zach-sr]

For some reason I am not getting oil to the head.... I will be taking off front cover to see whats up monday.

[Zach-sr]

Well it started, now I just need to complete some little things.

I didnt like how dinky the old exhaust looked so...
http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/IMG_0826.jpg

and as of now...
http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/IMG_0823.jpg

To do:
Extend mafs.
Bolt seats down.
Brake booster vacuum.
New brake master cylinder.

[killer240]

how does that throttle cable bracket work out for you?
from the pic the cable looks kinda loose.. yeah you can adjust it. but is it strong enough to hold it down? looks neat.

[Zach-sr]

It is loose at the moment because I haven't kept it running long enough to adjust it.
It is strong enough to hold it though, absolutely no play at all when bolt are tightened.

[killer240]

sweet im gona try that. it looks neat.
bay looks clean

[Zach-sr]

Thanks man. You will need to give yourself some slack by depressing the plate behind the gas pedal.

[jdm2191]

What kind of Front Bumper is that?

[Zach-sr]

Its a OEM bumper with a Kaminari USA lip.

[Tiny_T]

I think you accidentally welded something onto the end of your exhaust.

[Zach-sr]

Woops. :keke:

[s13 @ fullboost]

i like great success

[daftphunk]

Very clean engine bay. I might have to do something like that for my throttle cable, hate how it's in the way. Man I need to do a tuck too! fuuuu

[Zach-sr]

haha, Thanks guys.

[Michael Nolan]

looks super super dope, awesome job on the wiring!

If you don't mind me asking, how much did this cost you?

[Zach-sr]

I have done this on a super tight budget. I have my own place, have custody of a kid, and am in school. But what part exactly are you talking about? The swap cost probably about 3.2k and this re-build has cost me about 1-1.5k. But I have done it over a long span of time so it was $60 $100 there and so on. So it didnt seem very expensive.

[HPKMotorsports3]

great work man... love those meshes

[Zach-sr]

Thanks, I really dont like them. Due to all the motor stuff I havent had money to do anything with suspension or wheels. :bash:

[HPKMotorsports3]

give them to me and ill give you my SE rims lol:naughtyd:

[Zach-sr]

I dont know about that.. haha. Ill trade them for five lug hubs though... lol

[Zach-sr]

New valve cove color.

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/mms_picture-2.jpg

[S-Nation S13]

pretty damn clean, with a tight budget..lol fuse box re-located under the battery box?

[Zach-sr]

Thanks, and yes. I made brackets so it bolts to where the fender bolts to the front bumper in the wheel well.

[Zenki_Kouki.5]

Howd you hide the fuse box?
Any pics of how you mounted it and wiring?

[Options13]

^^ what he said, very cool how you hid it!

[Zach-sr]

Ok,

1.Take top and bottom covers off fuse box. You will be left with a flat panel of fuses and relays.

2.Take apart the panel (it is only heald together with tabs). Do this with a flat head.

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/100_0352.jpg

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/100_0353.jpg

3.Shove the mess through the hole next to your battery.

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/100_0356.jpg

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/IMG_0001.jpg

4.Now that your wheel well looks like a transformer threw up in it you have to put this crap back together. (Sorry for the lack of pictures from this point on.)

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/IMG_0003.jpg

I used the stock bracket at this time to bolt it under the battery box. (I have changed it since then).

5. Stare at sucess.

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/IMG_0004.jpg

This is how I get power to the fuse box...

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/IMG_0027.jpg

Crappy picture but you can kind of see where I ran my harness into the wheel well bye drilling a hole and putting a rubber gromit in to ensure there is no rubbing.
http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/17764.jpg

Hope this helps. It cost me about $3.

[nathanong87]

so in order to replace a fuse, you have to remove your front wheel....awesome.

[Okinawandrifter87]

so in order to replace a fuse, you have to remove your front wheel....awesome.

This. Hahaha. :ddog:

[kalypso123]

lol

but this is still cool. I like the armrest relocation the most :0)

[Zach-sr]

ah touche, but I have already thought of this. So with a simple left turn of the wheel and opening of a left hinged door i am making in the inner fender liner and you have complete access to all fuses.

[Zach-sr]

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w165/boodoot259/IMG_0029.jpg

All I have to do is cut three sides and figure out some kind of latching system. It very will may end up being zip-ties due to simplicity.

[Zach-sr]

Well I started the car and it ran but I had a problem with the clutch not completely engaging. So I got a new one. I go to put it in and its too big. I thought it was a problem with the parts company but it turns out whoever had the motor before me put a SR20DE flywheel and clutch on it. So I got an oem SR20DET flywheel and It went right in and it fixed the issue.

I also got a new oil pressure sensor for the prosport gauge since my other one never read anything. I dont recomend the oil gauge or any other that uses any electric sensor. After reading into the problem I found that almost everyone has these sensors crap out on them almost every six months.

I also removed my upper timing chain guide in hopes that was the tapping occoring when I last started it. After removing it I saw some very deep scaring so hopefully that was it.

All thats left is bolt up stater and install driveshaft.

In the mean time here are some real pictures of the new valve cover color.

hahaha i like it good accident ;)

clean car man i love the wire job and undermounting the fuse box... looks clean and very clever

[Zach-sr]

Thanks man.
Well I started the car today. No rattling noise anymore. Just gotta put good gas in it. The gas that is in it is a year and a half old. And I need to adjust the TPS. Then I should be good to go.

[Zach-sr]

Crappy cell phone video.
