Midnightdriver 12-05-2006 05:00 PM

Looks damn good man, i like the gauge setup too, what did you go with for gauges? and what are you running for a turbo? and whats all the switches in the radio area?

Midnightdriver 12-07-2006 03:25 PM

^^ The Gauges are DEFI link meter series..I put in the (in order left to right) oil temt, tach, boost, egt, fuel press., oil press, water temp. all the stuff you need to monitor the engine when the stock stuff don't work anymore. Turbo is a T04E BB, .57 P trim..with 1.0 hot side. the swiches you speak of are (in order L 2 R) ingntion, push start, fuel pump, rad. fan...The engine 13B-RE worked over very heavly by Dave at Speedmach.

1Revvin7 12-07-2006 07:41 PM

The meaning of awesome.

Node 12-07-2006 09:35 PM

ellioto: I concur

Midnightdriver 12-08-2006 11:09 AM

a few more eng. bay shots after manifold and intake pipe bead blasted and fuel lines routed.

ExplicitRotary 12-09-2006 02:52 PM

So did yuo actually drop the motor in or did they do that at Speed?

Midnightdriver 12-10-2006 01:08 AM

The engine was built at Speedmachine by Dave Gibson. The manifold and DP were done by Elliot White at Turblown.net (on recomendation by Dave). Those are just a few of the people that have put there hands into this project ( A long list). The build is being done by myself and my friend Allan at his shop Modified Auto Salon

Is that the 3-1/8" tach or the 4-1/2"? Im looking to mount mine in the same place, but i want it to cover the stock tack completely.

Dave G. 12-12-2006 12:40 AM

Looks good Chris! I'll have to post up some pics of the new project car we are building as soon as I am given authorization https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.gif 13B-RE as well, but in a different chassis...and twin singles https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif

What's the car being used for? Drift, drag, auto-x? Or just plain old street monster?



Looks good thus far, keep up the work. And a 1.0 hot side, talk about lag!!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.gif

The tach is the 80mm they do have a bigger one (i think 120mm)
