Here are some almost finished pics. The cars vaccume hose system is going to be in stainless, but i just put it together with silicon because i want to drive it...
I tried to take a vid of it running but ran out of memory. The camera really does it no justice... |
|
|
if you look closely in the first pic you can tell that it is running ;0
|
never realized that the water pump housing was so big til saw your none water stock water pump setup
|
OMG! WOW i'm speechless! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif
|
Really nice! Have any pics of the waterpump?
|
This is the best I could do without the car on the lift.
From the bottom |
it was leaking coolant very slowly from the holes where the long bolts are threaded. The pump mounts to the flange from the other side. that is why there are some random bolts in there...
bottom looking from drivers side |
in the engine bay
I dug out my video camera. Ill take some vids of street tunning to 20lbs tomorrow incar https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png I like how i have this nice waterpump setup, and then the little hose to the right with the bolt blocking it...lol |
I still have to wrap the harness up, make the vaccume system out of SS and clean up a little bit of wiring that was thrown in to make it run.
This winter I might do a major rewire and put the fuseboxes up with the computer. I am proud to report that there are zero leaks of any type. I had a problem with my turbo oil feed line exploding. Lesson learned, always keep the fitting and hose brand consistant, earls fittings and aeroquip hose are not happy together, especally with 120psi of 50 weight running through it at idle... |
also this winter should bring a sheetmetal intake manifold https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif
I am undecided as to what i want to do with paint. I am thinking ghost flames in the clearcoat on the front of the car, as subtle as possible. I want to do something different with it, but not catchy or tacky |
Looks great!

Is that the Miezere pump ? , which model ?, do you have any over heating problems ??
|
Looks awesome, great work!! you're killing me with the wiring, haha!!
dayem get a shield/blanket on that bottom turbine housing!! looks like the top turbo could get some REAL hot air. |
Yeah that K&n has a reeeeeally short life expectancy.
Since that pic I have cleaned up a good bit of wiring, added a spark rail, and done the wastegate lines in SS |

yes it is a meziere.
PN WP361, 55GPM radiator mount, single output The Motor flange is a KGParts peice, With -16 weld on bosses welded on. the car runs a little hot, but i only had one fan working, and it was the 4blader. I just got the other fan and will have results on cooling today. |
car runs super cool with both fans, Didnt go abobe 90deg cel in 80* F weather
|
hey Bobby.... send me some more details on the WP setup.... and some better pics.
Thanks |
I'm late to this thread, i have not been on the forum much lately Bobby. Is it all done yet?
|
yeah, i have been SO busy at work that i havent gotten a chance to turn it up. It's kinda been put on the back burner until i can get my finances back on track, trying to save up for paint.
At 10lbs it hauls some major ass. I cant wait for 20 |

I dont know what i'm going to do yet.
If i want to get it painted now, I am just going to redo the whole car in red with the kit the way it is. I have been eyeing a kit from japanland that i like a lot. If i do that it will be widebody, and i think i'd paint the car black. If i paint it black then i'm going to do everything, engine bay, inside, cage, etc in black but obviously that will cost a good deal more. I dont know if it is worth the time and money to put into a full paintjob. |
I've been driving it a lot lately.
It shakes it rattles it is loud but i love it :0 I might put taller gears in the trans, driving at 4.5k on the highway kinda sucks... And 4th gear comes and goes so fast, i dont feel like im going even though im doing upwords of 140mph... |
TRACK RESULTS!!!!!
|
hey man are you going to be around this week?
i like need thoes tires soon because im GOING to tune this week. Like i took off work for it haah |

Looks very good, Ron. Great work. B |
Looks like a lot of fun. Also looks like it could use a cold air box to get some nice outside air to those huffers.
