Has been a very long time since I have last updated. I had seemed to have lost interest in this car for quite some time. Decided to out a few hours of work into the car this weekend and get it back on the road. Driving it for the first time in 2 years has brought back my interest for this car. Will hopefully continue updating for frequently. As for now, here the last picture after washing 2 years worth of dust off her.

Not an update to the car but I bought myself a workbench to put in the garage. Partly why I lost interest in the build is because the garage is not insulated and our winter lasts for about 6 months. The plan is to fully insulate the garage this fall so I have somewhere to work on the car for half the year. And I finally decided to delete this ugly charcoal canister.

The day has finally come that I decided to relocate my fuse box. Thinking that tons of wires needed to be cut to even start the job had be nervous. Although, finding out that the whole harness can be pulled through the firewall and the only wires needing to be extended are those that go to the headlights have be relieved. I am still undecided as to where I am going to put the box. This is my progress so far as I don't have the supplies to go any further so I didn't bother cutting wires. So far I am very pleased with how it looks and how straight forward it is. Not sure why people start cutting all wires when it can simply be pulled though??

I'm finally getting to the point where I am starting to throw money under the hood. I pulled the trigger on a new turbo. I decided to go with a gtx3071r Gen 2 with 0.64 exhaust to help with lag. At this point I am deciding what head work I want to do. I had purchased solid lifters in hope to run a larger cam with upgraded valvetrain. Anyone have any opinion on poncam vs procams?

Small update. Harness is almost done other than some of the smaller gauge wires that I didn't have. Pretty simple process to do with minimal soldering.
Engine bay is finally taking shape I haven't received it yet but I ordered a wiring specialties harness that matches with a ecumaster black along with the ecu itself. I am also having wiring specialties wire the harness for an ecumaster adu5 dash. I am super excited for this to show up. Last edited by skouki; 11-30-2019 at 07:09 PM.. |

While waiting on my wiring harness, ecu, and tubs I got bored and ordered a couple parts from japan. Only took about 5 days to receive. A cusco cooling panel and yashio factory rad hose for the bling factor.
Decided to pull the dash so I can eliminate the hvac system. As I dont drive this car much, i figured I shouldn't need it. While the dash is apart I painted to the dash bar for a cleaner look. I have yet to pull the whole system out but there should be next to nothing behind the dash because I will be pulling the chassis harness out and having a new chassis harness made to run only the basics in the car. The wiring specialties harness showed up and I couldn't be more impressed. They do nice work there. This harness is wired directly to my ecumaster black ecu so there is no need for a patch harness. The harness comes wired for basically any sensor ever needed. And what else makes this harness very cool is that it is pre wired for an ecumaster adu digital display and usb to can. Can not wait to have this all set up. Some cool wheel tubs that I purchased. These will help clean up the looks of the bay. Hadn't planned on picking up a cd009 quite yet but the opportunity was there so I did. It looks to be in very nice condition. It ended up cleaning up quite well. My plan is to pair it with a mazworx kit along with a gktech shifter. At this point I have no idea what clutch setup I will run but i'm thinking some sort of twin disc. |

Behind the dash is gutted. Made sure to document what plugs go where just in case I ever decide to put everything back in. May also help others out, who knows.
Stock harness sure looks junky compared to the new wiring specialties harness. |

That interior firewall is so clean! Is that how it was behind the air system, or has it been painted again? And yes, plug fun’s.... I managed to label most of mine. Looking forward to seeing your new custom harness!
I’m rewrapping mine with this sweet as felt wrap tape, it should also eliminate may of the nasty cable ties and stop wire potential wire rattles. Magic work being done to a mighty fine fourteen! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |
