I cleaned and painted more shat these past few days. I also installed all the bushings in the the front suspension as well.
A of the engine bay as I put stuff back on...
I grinded down the rubber lining in the fender wells. This is by far the shittiest thing to do ever. This is something I don't ever want to do again. I definitely did a half-ass job getting rid of all the material and paint. I'm re-thinking the idea of re-lining the entire underbody...
Rust bullet
liner--I did 3 coats
had some downtime, so I decided to paint the brackets on the cruise control. lol
Greddy RAS!!!
and the new timing chain tensioner. old vs. new
I'm almost down re-installing the front suspension and engine components. Next on the list now is:
- grinding down the under body and re-coating with herculiner
- Cleaning and painting rear suspension
- installing all the rear ES bushings
- drop and clean the fuel tank
I think after all that, I'll be ready to drop the motor in. Maybe even sooner. Then...wiring.
I'm still looking for several parts, just waiting for a good deal:
SR intake
SR/Q45/Z32 MAF, whatever really. Just looking for around 250-300 hp.
SR downpipe
Triple guage pod for S13
