but meh its sweeet lol

thanks for that man it really settled my bones haha but do u no about all those tubes and lines? are they in the rite places? i just put them where they bounced 2

 

doesnt any1 else on this website no anything about the tube connections?

theres gotta be more than 2 lol

 

ok thanks to Youds and Sp0oon

i got a diagram from here

ok now technical, who knows if there is anything that has 2 be done, that is always forgotten, or something when putting on a head cuz i really dont wanna put my head on and all torqued down just to realise i forgot something

thanks

 

is it true that the torque is 40 foot pounds?

that seems really low lol

head is on, throttle linked, other tubes and lines connected, 2moro and friday afternoons : wiring :'(

 

Day 18 :

fuck that wiring is a bitch so many clips and connections argh...

all injectors linked, alternator all connected, other intake clips, etc etc

such a bitch of a job :shock:

anyway all that done, showed mum the car she was impressed...lol

2moro after school: air flow senser + pod filter install, cam covers on, and find a harmonic balancer

then put on the timing belt + covers and im all sweet i guess!

 

lol the torque was only 14ftlbs IIRC but thanks for looking out anyway

now all i need is harmonic balancer SHIT lol

 

hey would the engine not be able to run simply because a clip might not be connected? not as in injector clips or anythign, but like a clip u cant see that i might have missed?

 

and sadly i learned that over tightening soft metal is bad lol

with my pulsation dampener in the fuel rail, the dampener had its thread cut for some reason ( i think my motors been rebuilt, or at least tempered with)
and when it started leaking i never realised i didnt haev a copper washer, and i just tightened it more, and the thread has stripped right out on the fuel rail :cry:

and im getting $1800 soon, minus $120 for parent loans,

this money is for getting the car on the road, and for my own things to spice up the car a little what hsould i buy?

(nothign big like bodykits or rims)

 

Day: 19








put on a hood scoop and mesh grill looks nice i rekon lol

interior from this:





to this:


found a fuel rail and PD so car should be sweet in no time XD












and that whole next to the headlight on the bonnet is for a vent i have sitting next 2 me looks real smooth

you may think this car is a stunning show car, or a ugly peice of shit

either way i designed this car for my taste not yours
