I just wanted to post a couple pics of my 87 base after the S5 TII Jspec transplant.
I still have a lot of minor things to finish up, but I think you will get the idea I was going for. Any comments are welcome. Thanx Michael |

looks like it's coming along nicely.... who made the rotor knob for the brake bias adjuster?

Damn Michael....
Looks great man!! Please tell me you're bringing it to indy...?!? |
the intercooler pipping looks like it would clear A/C if you still had, is there that much room or is that just the way it came out in the pics?
|
Yes, I will be in Indy with it. I hope to meet up with you there as well. How is your project coming along?
The rotor caps are from Mazdaracing. The one in the bottom right corner is for the clutch fluid resevoir. I removed the AC shortly after I got it. I am not sure about the fitment with it. Thanx Michael |
Great! Can't wait to see it in person! Yeah man, we'll meet up for sure...
Eh, project is coming along, just not as quickly as I had originally planned. If I get this new job I've been waiting on, then its time to start spending some more $$$... |

i think it does, rob |
Car looks good.
Why do you have two fuel pressure gauges? Was that last pic taken with the car running? |
is a FPR really needed with a standalone?

There are a few who have made over 400rwhp on the stock fpr/rails/lines. I believe he has a a fuel gauge for each rail. I could see that useful if they were used in a way that you could view playback on a setup with many large fuel injectors and stock/small bore fuel rails. And the chance of not having enough pump. My opinon, thats way overkill, and totally not needed for what this car has for power or ever will. P.S. Rob it looks like he is still on the stock ECU; afm is pictured. |
If he is running dual pumps and dual feed lines, he can monitor the pressure each individual pump is putting out. With one single pressure on the FPR itself you cant discriminate between the two fuel pumps.
right? |
Both of those ports on the FPR are hooked together, that's why I asked why he is running 2 gauges. I guess you can watch them both and take the average between the two.

no, but it is needed with higher boost/larger flow. the stock fpr stops raising psi around 10+ psi. |
