Galant306m's turbo build

[Galant306m]

Its time to start this thing, as you remember this summer i picked up a 4g63 head and a 14b turbo. Now that school is coming to a end im get to dump some money into the G that has been waiting patently.

what i have to start with

http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z128/viper306m/DSC00436.jpg

have'nt decided if im going to run the 14b or if im going to go with something bigger.

the parts list
4g63 head kit
4g63 timing kit
new rods
new pistons
rings and bearings
intercooler piping kit
intercooler
2g equal length exhaust manifold and down pipe
2g turbo ecu (eprom if i can find one)
2g wire harness
BOV
maf translator
wide band o2 sensors
aem ems
boost gauge
boost controller
oil pressure gauge
oil lines
2g distributor
cams? haven't (decided if im going to cam it)
adjustable cam gears
injectors
fuel rail
fuel pump
and a 5 spd swap with lsd.
im still forgetting stuff but thats the basic parts list that im going to have by the end of January.
The goal is to have it done by June or July.
pics of the head getting pulled apart tomorrow when i get done. Once it is all pulled apart im going to take it to work and throw it in the hot bath with all the components. My friends dad owns a grinding shop that is going to blanchor grind the head for me for a case of beer, also know some one with a dyno thats going to charge 200 dollars for a session, which the session time is as long as i need to complete the tunes.

Stay tuned.

[Voodoo]

Yayz! You finally won't be balls-slow anymore! :smt030

[Galant306m]

Got the head all pulled apart now time to have her hot bathed and get some head work done.

You should extrude hone that intake mani, or get a nicer unit.

[Galant306m]

You should extrude hone that intake mani, or get a nicer unit.

i was thinking about getting a nicer one, or cleaning that one up really good and having it powder coated. The intake side of that head is really carbon'd up im not sure yet what im going to do to clean that out.

[Galant306m]

OBX or Skunk2 cam gears???

[Galant306m]

Bought some stuff today that was on my list,pics when they arrive.

valve kit
innercooler
innercooler piping kit (comes with a bov that im not going to use)
skunk2 cam gears
obx equal length exhaust housing
arp head stud kit

[seth98esT]

What valve kit did you go with?

[Galant306m]

[RedGalant2k1]

Nice, should be nice to see once it is all done.

[00galantguy]

I'm jealous, I wish I can finish buying stuff for my turbo and get a 5 spd swap and do my car

Lol its fun the parts just keep coming in
http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z128/viper306m/1228426810.jpg

Skunk 2 adjustable cam gears.;)

[Galanttuner10]

the 3 inch thickness might be an issue for fitment behind our stock bumpers.. ive done measurements and talked 2 4grim about it for my turbo project and he said the 3 will b 2 thick and ull have 2 hack the front bumper.. how do u plan on making it fit?

[kolio]

looking good so far. my 2.5" intercooler will fit snug behind the DE bumper. 3 is doable but you are going to have to trim a bit

[Galant306m]

im going to buy the 97-98 bumper before April, fits a intercooler better.

edit: oh yea i won my katskinz :) leather seats ftw.

[Galanttuner10]

i dont like the grills on the 97-98 so im leaving mine and since u r swapping the bumpers u should b good.. good luck with the build man.. im just getting all my parts in within the next month or 2 then its time 2 do it

[Galant306m]

thanks! just to let you know getting all your parts in a month or so is hard trust me, ive spent well over a g already on stuff for my car and i still have about 4gs to go lol, not going to have them all by the end of January but ill still get everything that i need and more.

[Galanttuner10]

well i have a lot of dsm guys around me and the only things im missing for the turbo build id the intercooler, intercooler piping and an eprom ecu.. i have everything else and ive started collecting parts not even a week ago.. i know where 2 get the ecu and i know the intercooler im getting and the piping im using so i will have the part soon

you are going to do the headswap, but im not going to do the headswap until later on when i upgrage to an 18g or 20g down the line so u need more parts and more work than i do.. good luck and im looking forward 2 seeing the finished project

[Galant306m]

UPS's is going to start hating me really soon, everyday last week i got a package and i got another one today. Actually have a camera sice i found it last weekend.
Katskinz kit.
http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z128/viper306m/Turbo%20build/DSC00599.jpg

(Edit: It was a lie like the cake.)

Going to install them on Saturday when i wake up!

[Stewi]

looking good so far, keep it up

A few pieces of advice I have for you.

Those cam gears are sick, but for what your doing, you dont really "need" them. Although its rare, adjustable cam gears can slip causing timing trouble and possibly major engine damage. For me, I had no choice but to run them, but when doing this headswap for a 7g you can use the stock gears from a 94 gs and the timing will be on the money, those gears too are only like $45 brand new from mitsu for the pair.

Also, I saw your lifters were numbered, are you planning on reusing them? I reused a set once, cleaned and bled them and they were still kinda crappy. you can buy a complete set of new ones on ebay for $105 shipped, its definetly worth the investment.

Thanks stewi.!
yea i thought about that, was just going to get them set and use some high strength lock tight to keep them in place.

[Galant306m]

more stuff ordered, pics when they arrive, HKS SSQ black BOV, Brian and Crower Valve springs, and a Stainless Steel Down Pipe.

Christmas has slowed me down some but not enough to keep me from buying stuff.

[Galanttuner10]

hey hows the progress going

[Galant306m]

waiting for more crap to come in that mail, still have'nt sent the head out to get machined, and washed lol. Im slakin a bit but its all good was planning on working on it this saturday since all the snow has melted and i can get it out of my grandpas shed and into the basement.

Parts will start rolling in again tomorrow.

[Galanttuner10]

good shit dude.. i recently came across a good deal on a 26 head with all new valves and hes giving me the injectors, fuel rail, map sensor, head and intake mani for 250.. so thats now on my list

ups must hate us as i have parts coming in every other day lol

[Galant306m]

my hks ssqv came in today,

This came right as i was leaving for work

3" turbo down pipe.
http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z128/viper306m/DSCN0039.jpg

[Galanttuner10]

hey dude wut downpipe is that and i like how our builds r both coming along.. i should be getting my new head in a week or 2

[Galant306m]

its a megan racing 3" downpipe for a 1997 eclipse gst

[Galanttuner10]

figured it was megan racing but i was looking at the same thing and i was like lemme check so i dont get the same thing he has

[Galant306m]

meh it doesn't matter really megan has a good warranty on their stuff so you should get one.

[Galanttuner10]

if u dont mind having the same thing then i will

[kolio]

looking good, keeping it moving i see

[Galant306m]

if u dont mind having the same thing then i will

im not that way lol, your cars already a black 96 s how much worse could it get hahahaa.

[Galanttuner10]

damn ur even the same color.. fuck me.. o well.. r u doing a 1g or 2g head.. and ill run a stock 2g downpipe 4 now.. then when i upgrade the turbo ill change the exhaust lol

[Galant306m]

2g head. which i really need to stop being lazy about and work on but yea its cold out.

[Galanttuner10]

damn it i was hoping u had a 1g cuz i just got a 2g 1 man lol when we r done at least our cars will look different on the outside cuz im leaving mine stock looking and my rimas r dif and mine will be dropped 2

but dude im glad 2 c the progress and look 4ward 2 much more coming.. good luck

[Galant306m]

Brian and Crower Valve springs came today, surprisingly they where the cheapest ones that i could find plus they have a nice nytryde coating on them for strength. hahah they included a print with the springs im going to take one to work and see how well the hold tolerances lol cause im that way.

also im going to order some skunk 2 titanium retainers to complement the springs and my lil surprise that will be here soon.

[00galantguy]

Nice awesome progress man! Cant wait to see her runnin!

[Galant306m]

Im hate to say it but this might end up on hold for a couple months, my school bill is really expensive this semester. 370 a month for me to attend sucks. Idk i might be able to buy some more stuff here and there. I think im going to buy all my swap stuff and then in april/may when im done with school ill buy my 20g, my cams and my 5spd stuff all at once.

So i think my list for the next month is going to be

Timing Kit
Head gasket kit
gauges
and get my head work done...

[Galant306m]

i also forgot this thing came yesterday, going to put it on tomorrow when i wake up.

Also going to get a 3k hid kit for the fogs will look hot. Shit needs to be repainted though the paint is pealing off in some spots.

[kolio]

anytime you get a uised pumper from jdm land it needs painting. except for some of triggs stuff. looking good so far. how much you get the springs for?

and your school isn't that bad. i put all my projects on hold because my school bill is 19K a year

[Galant306m]

The Crower springs where like 90 shipped something like that. I know my school isnt that bad i think its just this month that is going to be rough i tomorrow i get paid and first thing is to pay off my Credit Card, Pay off my best buy card, pay off my paypal buyers credit, school payment and car insurance is all do with in a week. haha, im just going to have limited funds for a week.

[Proto]

Be careful with the fog bezels. I cracked one and a new one was $46.

Here's some old pics of my GS if you want an idea...

im taking it that you just routed the turn signal wires up to the side markers and hooked them up there? Thats what i was going to do. And proto how did you hook up the fogs, i have the wires with the plugs hanging (carroded as fuck) I was just going to hook them up to my headlight wires and have them turn on at the same time.

[Proto]

https://www.thegalantcenter.org/showthread.php?t=16341 <- how mine headlights and signals were wired. i just tapped my existing fog light wires for the fogs but i also did the mod from vfaq where the fogs come on with the parking lights.

[Galant306m]

Anyone here use the gates racing t-belt. i can get a good deal on one, they have a better construction then OEM and are made from a stronger material. Just looking for some input i dont want to break one and have to replace my ss valves.

[mko]

is it made for 63 or 64 dohc. 63 do not work for our cars. get an oem belt

[Galant306m]

wait the 63 belt wont work for the 63 head on the 64 block?? Good thing i didnt buy anything hahahaha.

[Proto]

You need the DOHC 4g64 belt

[kolio]

You need the DOHC 4g64 belt

you also need the 64 cam gears for the hybrid motor

[Galant306m]

now im all confused so i cant use the cam gears that i got, and i have to use a 64 dohc tbelt. hmm what if i just change out the lower sprocket??

[Galanttuner10]

you can use the 63 cam gears but the timing is off like half a notch cuz the 64 block has a taller deck height.. it is worth it 2 run the 64 cam gears to keep the timing the same.. o and in case u didnt know u cant use the 63 head gasket either.. u need a 64 dohc head gasket

[remarque]

The 94 GS cams are only like $25 a piece jnz tuning sells them.

timing is way off, you don't want to even consider it

[Galanttuner10]

i was going by wut ive seen on some of the sources 4 the headswap and such.. i guess its more off than i thought.. im going with the 64 cam gears anyway

[kolio]

ya, you don't want to play with the timing. when you do a 2.4L DOHC build use all the timing related stuff from the 4G64

[Galanttuner10]

ya, you don't want to play with the timing. when you do a 2.4L DOHC build use all the timing related stuff from the 4G64

thats the plan.. and thanks 4 making me realize its even more off than i thought

Meh im sticking with my skunk2 cam gears, there is a damn good reason that i have them....

[Voodoo]

You need to get this shit running man.

[Galant306m]

Ok, i put this on hold for a month well in that month i paid off my school and my credit card so now im free to buy stuff again. I really need to get the head out but im so busy its hard to make time.

So when i get paid again im going to order a few more things
Fuel rail and injectors
my gauges that i want (boost, oil preasure, wide band 02,)
ecu (biggest thing i need right now)

So lets get this thing moving again. toss me some ideas if you have some i want to get this thing done soon.

[seth98esT]

What ECU? Evo ECU? Why are you buying a fuel rail?

For gauges, get Prosports, they are cheap and work good: http://prosportgauges.com/
For wideband, snag up the Innovatec wideband that qnz is selling, $120 shipped: https://www.thegalantcenter.org/showthread.php?t=35113
Injectors, you could snag some Evo 560cc injectors for $125 or so.

Im thinking about getting a eprom so i can run dsm link. I dont mind piggy backs but they dont have as much tuning capabilities as a ems does. Seth i will take your advice on the injectors and the fuel rail was just because it looks better more then less.

And thanks QNZ for the wideband o2.

[Galant306m]

how to wire up a innovate wideband and install the gauge pod.

So this is what ive been working on all weekend had to take a break for the meet yesterday and im just finishing it up now.

Qnz sold me a innovate wide band at a really good price so rob and i started to hook it up on friday ran into a couple problems where their wiring colors sucks, we got it working good and now just need to finish up by soldering the rest of the wires and hooking up my other two gauges.

The three gauges i got are

Wide Band O2
Boost/vaccum (for the turbo when it goes in sometime lol)
and Oil pressure
( i have a narrow band AFR gauge if anyone would want to buy it just pm me ill get some pics of it)

First things First

[00galantguy]

livin the high life.

[Galant306m]

i got everything pretty much done just have to get more wire for the oil preasure gauge and more vacuum line for the boost gauge which will just be a vacuum gauge till i get BOOST. Also i have to modify the pod to fit my stock pillar but i can to that in the morning when i have extra light.

Like i said i have a little more left to do to them to get them to all work but i should have it done this week since i dont have school (spring break FTW)

[Galant306m]

well i ordered lowering loaded tokico struts with a 1.25 drop, and new tires for me and rob today. Will get the tires mounted next week and soon after my 7g will be lowered again just not as low as it used to be with my shitty ebay springs. PICS will be posted im so excited for no more 4x4 you can't even imagine.

for the people that dont know my car it was this low once i loved how it looked just hated how it rode so i took them off and two years later im going to be lowered again.

yea i remember when your car looked like that, and now look at it lol its so damn nice. I really want mine to look good and perform good. last semester of school and i make way more money then i used to, can't wait till this summer. Oh and i voted for you for COTM just to let you know 7G love, hope you win and i hope one day i will be nominated.

lol i'm graduating in may so then my motor work happens. just need this one to last till may 11th! and thanks for the support



let me know if you have questions about stuff. i got tons of data lying around somewhere!


what gauges are those?

[Galant306m]

Glow shift Gauges. I wasnt sure about them at first they came with the pillar but i actually really like them, they are not blinding at night like some of the ones that i see people with, they have a real suttle look to them with just a while led. My AFR on the other hand is really bright, its a innovate wide band that i got from QNZ. Going to trim the pillar pod up and mount it to my stock apillar cause no matter how hard i try i can not get the intagra one to fit nicely.

[Galant306m]

tires heheheh. there are 8 of them lol one set is for voodoo.

My AFR on the other hand is really bright, its a innovate wide band that i got from QNZ.

We still gotta hook that sucker up to your rheostat so it automatically dims when you turn your lights on. It will be much less of a nuisance once we do that. I wish I could dim my AFR gauge :(

[Galant306m]

Needs another .5-1" lower :)

[greddy]

^of course, who doesn't want a JDM snowplow ? :)

[kolio]

looks good. what size are your rims? look like 16's?

the bigger your rims the less drop you get

[00galantguy]

looks good. what size are your rims? look like 16's?

the bigger your rims the less drop you get

yea his are 16's

[Galant306m]

yea those are my 16's im still looking at those gram lights that i showed you. want to focus more on the engine now and stop buying shit that doesnt help me get closed to being done with that engine

[Voodoo]

w00t, I love my new tires. It was so nice putting those babies on after making those massive flat spots with my failburnout.

[Galant306m]

yea i should post that fail on here and your rep will fail like mine.

[4g63lover]

looks good Mitch.

[Galanttuner10]

i have those same springs but i have the illumina shocks and my car sits right on my steelies and my 17s wit low pros.. was the pic right after u put them on or after it settled??

[Galant306m]

those pics where right after i put them on, its going in for an alignment tomorrow to fix the toe problem caused by lowering and to bring the camber to -2 deg which will keep tire wear at a minimum and still help me clear my fender.
also finally since my grandparents are home my head is sent out for machining and re assembly

[Galant306m]

http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z128/viper306m/DSCN6937.jpg

cleaned up waiting on some parts, guides are going in today and then once the head kit get here the rest of it will be put back together and i will have it back on friday/saturday

[mko]

where did you order the guides?

[Galant306m]

came with my valves lol

[Galanttuner10]

nice looking good bro keep it up

[Galant306m]

[Proto]

Fix that muffler!

[Galant306m]

yea i still havent gotten around to extending that thing lol, ill wait till i start my swap so that way im not rushing to get it back on.

Oh and my head has the guides in valves are in and all my springs are back it just waiting on my cam seals so they can go back in, im sad i had school all day so i didnt get to go look at it but pics on friday when i pick it up, then the G gets put into a garage for a month or two while i 5spd swap and build the engine.

Going to pull the engine out and tear it down take the crank in for a micro polish and put new rings and bearing in the bottom end. Hone the cylinder walls and then put it back together.

[Galant306m]

it will sit in my grandfathers basement for a month and then it will bet getting put on the 7g!

[mko]

looking good there. ah and how r u gonna match the "flat black paint" of yours with the spoiler?

im not sure where a i read it , but 8g crank is supposed to be forged and if you notice some manufacturers like Eagle describe the 100mm crank as 2g and evo stroker crank. If it works for our cars then it will be a much cheaper option than actual eagle crank

[Galant306m]

im going to use the stock bottom end. going to pull it apart and have the crank micro polished and then take my rods and pistons in with my flywheel and have it balanced

[mko]

did they do any valve angle job or just replaced them? and how much did the wokr cost you ?

[Galant306m]

5 angle valve job and after some parts that i was missing where ordered it coast 330 bux to have it machined and assembled i have over 1g in the head alone lol

[Voodoo]

I jizzed in my pants.

[Galant306m]

8g spoiler added.

Very nice man, I like it a lot. keep up with the good work.

Ill be focusing on exterior this summer - 2 tone paint job, new rims, hopefully some JDM goodies. i guess you need to do that too. I see your interior is nice

[Galant306m]

yea i got to finish the front seats still and i want new carpet

[mko]

Are you getting one custom molded? I dont think there are any aftermarket carpets for 7g. BTW I dyed mine black

[Galant306m]

i can find a replacement one, or ill just do my own lol.

Is it more silent now? Im looking to add some middle resonators and change my end muffler cuz its very loud w/o silencer.

[Galant306m]

its quieter just put it up there to get everything lined up so i can take it to work and weld it tonight. its a little raspy on the down swing but it was leaking some at that flange and out of the extension pipe i put in
has a much better sound then the one that was on there though much much better.

[hk20000]

I feel so nostalgic when I see my headlights ending up on your car hahahaha.

[kolio]

why do you still not have a sway bar?!

[Galant306m]

lol i no i needs one.

[Shadow19]

damn dude. That 8g spoiler came out nicely. Did it fight you? Or did my method work out pretty good?

[Galant306m]

your method worked out really good thanks. It leaks a little bit but i have a solution for that lol. i got some gasket material from work that im going to put on each bolt that should make it stop leaking. Thanks for the help on that one turned out really good.

[Shadow19]

Yea ive never sealed it. Im going to use a ton of caulking if i decide to keep this wing.. Im still undecided if i want to keep the spoiler and the kit... Im getting tired of the look. I found some tenzo rims that i realllllllllyyyyy want and i think the kit will have to go to set them off... Anyways good luck man.

[Galant306m]

Thanks TJ and i picked out my turbo yesterday so im going to buy it next week.

[kolio]

Thanks TJ and i picked out my turbo yesterday so im going to buy it next week.

[Galant306m]

ive been doing alot of reading and i mean alot of reading about this swap, going to pull the 64 apart on sunday and have it sent out to be cleaned and bored. Dont know how much of a bore yet be i will figure that out later.

This build is going to be a blast but its very stress full. keep posted this will become alot of fun trust me.

(turbo is bigger then a 20g) thats my teaser

[Shadow19]

I think someone told me if you get it bored .30 over it will be a "2.5". Idk how much machine work is in your area but i got my 63 bored .20, decked, hot tanked, new freeze plugs and micro polished the crank an i paid 220 bucks. Looks like youve got alot of work done man. take note as far as wiring and send the shits to me yo! BTW thanks for that link man. hopefully within the next month i shall have me some new goodies!

picked up my 5spd mounted my intercooler.

[blue8g]

mitch whens this beast going to be back on the road?

[Galant306m]

my goal is before labor day, my turbo should be here in a day or two and im waiting on my crank kit to get here. then i should be getting it put together.

[blue8g]

cool, once back together we will have to meet up! or we should just have like weekly/monthly TGC WI meets

[Ivory8g]

Nice dude. That sized intercooler is the same size as mine. Fills up the gap nicely

[mko]

Dont tell me you got Eagle crank! That would be sweet!

[Voodoo]

Intarfooler!!!

[phizzalot]

Very Nice 306... Ur build has been a long one but its nice to see it nearing completion...I like the vr4 front as well, are you going to have to cut it up to fit the intercooler?

[Galant306m]

Nice dude. That sized intercooler is the same size as mine. Fills up the gap nicely
yea its a big fmic, but i hate small front mounts on cars they just look stupid so i got the biggest on that i could fit.

Dont tell me you got Eagle crank! That would be sweet!
Nah the egal crank is out of budget so i got one from, http://www.rpmmachine.com/crankshaftkitschrymits.html i got the topline crank with bearings.

Very Nice 306... Ur build has been a long one but its nice to see it nearing completion...I like the vr4 front as well, are you going to have to cut it up to fit the intercooler?
i test fitted the bumper over the front mound and im going to have to do minamal trimming to make it fit, just for the piping to fit and it should be good other wise i can make it come down. i took my ac shit out and re routed that brake line, also i moved the support bar out of the way by heating it up and bending it in, with a flat hammer and some heat i pounded it flat.

[mko]

Is there anything special about it, or you just wanted a new crank.

[Galant306m]

Is there anything special about it, or you just wanted a new crank.

i want a new crank really, the problem is i have 190k on my car and the crank is out of round so its just cheaper for me to get a new one then have it machined and then get special bearings to make the old one work.

[kolio]

thats cheap, mitsu wants alot for them

[Galant306m]

yea and eagle wants like 725 for one lol, i dont have 725 bux for a new crank that really isnt going to gain me anything but the name. Plus i want to get a quafe tor my trans.

Haha that trans was cheap by the way, its out of a 1994 GS i got it for 250 from a yard has 85k on it and the vehicle was crashed.

Dang dude! I paid 150 shipped for mine. But this is coming together nicely. Make sure you replace ALL exhaust bearings before you turbo. LOL

[Galant306m]

yea my muffler bearings are shot. lol yea im just waiting on parts now.

[Voodoo]

Mitch, you forgot your blinker fluid at my house. LMK when you want to come pick it up

[blue8g]

ooh were you using it as lube? sounds painful oh wait wrong thread...

[Galant306m]

http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z128/viper306m/2009-07-03143514.jpg

bought a big 20g, cant afford the turbo i want atm, so this will do for now.

[mko]

Does it have the MHI letters and serial number, or this is an Ebay turbo?

[blue8g]

hmmm....i'm just a wee bit jealous...

[Galant306m]

yea its got the serial number and the mhi

[4-G-rim]

That does not look like a real mhi 20g at all. The compressor housing doesn't even look close unless you got one of those bastard 20g's in which the compressor housing still doesn't look right at all. Another way to tell thats not a mhi 20g is how the internal wastegate is mounted.

[Galant306m]

its a ebay tdo5 20g, i thought it looked weird when it got here. it has all the serial numbers on it.

[Ivory8g]

Noice!

[Voodoo]

:060:

[RedGalant2k1]

I stuck it in my pooper last night, thanks Mitch!

[Galant306m]

alright guys nearing the end of my build.

crank has been shipped to my grandfathers house, and i will be honing the cylinders, im going to go pick my pistons up and take them to work for a nice hot bath then clean the ring groves so i can reassemble the block after i get it honed.

Now time for some questions that i have,
Timing is the biggest question i have, since i bought the adjustable cam gears does anyone know what to set the at.

With the 5spd swap are the axels the same or is the spline different, the trans is out of a 94gs.

I know that im going to run dsm link, does it matter what year eprom i get? The only reason i ask this is my car is setup for OBD2, but i don't have emissions in my county so i dont know if it will really make a difference.

Ugh since i have the money to buy everything i need now, this is getting really stressful because there are just so many things im unsure of.

Help me out if you have info on any of this, im not completely lost i just need help confirming my thoughts.

[Galanttuner10]

for the cam gears they are 63 so they should be advanced half a notch from stock 63 timing

i believe the axles are the same as when i ordered my new axle the only question was abs or non not auto or 5 spd

shouldnt mater what year eprom as long as its eprom and socketed

[seth98esT]

Since you have a 96, a 2g EPROM will be easiest to wire. If you want to rewire every single wire into the 3-plug 1g setup, then get a 1g EPROM ECU.

[Shadow19]

My auto axles swapped over to my 5 speed... Im not sure what year my tranny is out of but i think its a 94. Also from speaking with John about tuning and whatnot. DSM link isnt the way to go. Get the ostrich eprom emulator and talk to john what program to run on that. The emulator is all of like 100 bucks and the software is free and from what he said its far better than dsm link. i dont see spending 600 bucks for that shit if you dont have to u know?

[Galant306m]

Thanks guys, I actually contacted ams about my timing question. They say to set them at tdc and adjust 2 degrees clockwise, so that is solved since the markings on my gears are in degrees.

[bmore303]

Since he has a 96 Galant it would be easiest to run some form of 2G tuning, pretty much making ostrich a more difficult setup in this case. As far as DSMlink goes, quite a bit has changed since v2 to v3, not to mention some updates they have coming. I would read further into it and decide for yourself as both are capable of the same thing. That's def a 16G housing on that turbo. Hope it all works out well for you.

see and when that thing came in i thought that turbo looked funny. idk ill give it a shot and if i can make the power i want out of that thing im going to sell it. and get the turbo that i wanted.

[Galant306m]

i guess pay pal didn't change the shipping address so my crank came to my house lol
http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z128/viper306m/2009-07-15135655.jpg
came with bearings.

[blue8g]

dang that was fast shipping!

[Galant306m]

Today I ordered
Eprom from a 95 2g
Clutch
Fidanza 12lb flywheel
Dsmlink
Welbro 255 fuel pump
750cc injectors
And my clutch brake pedal assy

[bmore303]

Lol people forget I have an extra 95 eprom ecu. 2 for me :P . I should go to the yard again soon and maybe find a 3rd with my luck.

you should have said something i would have bought it off of you lol, o well the one that i got has the plug with some wires on it so it might be easier to hook up.

[Shadow19]

Hey man. looks like everything is coming together nicely. I wish you luck and take notes! Cause im right after you. im just still kind of skeptical about the whole tach and speedometer issue..............

[Galanttuner10]

Lol people forget I have an extra 95 eprom ecu. 2 for me :P . I should go to the yard again soon and maybe find a 3rd with my luck.

ill gladly get rid of my awd non eprom 4 an eprom if you wanna sell it for a decent price

but mitch its all coming together and looking great keep it up bro

[phizzalot]

What year is your awd non-eprom ecu galanttuner?

Thanks for the love guys.

I will be buying the rest of my parts when i get paid next friday i need another 650 bux worth of parts to make the car run. The engine will be back together next weekend, i would work on it this weekend but my grandparents are going out of town so i dont have access to the block, my pistons are at work going through parts washing and magnaflux (for anyone who doesnt know magnafluxing is basically taking the rods and magnatizing the crap out of them and using a fine steal powder to check for cracks.)

For the block as stated before i will be honing the cylinders out myself which isnt a big deal, i got to get the block to work to have it hot bathed, so i can paint it black.

I should be able to pull the auto trans out this weekend, so i can get the engine back in, in two weeks and then its all to wiring.

My goal is to have it done in a month now, i want it to be back on the road for labor day weekend since my family goes on vacation up north, so that will be the first long drive for the G.

Hey man. Just for future reference... Its 100000x easier to pull the motor with the tranny attatched to it. I think ive gotten my motor out and on the engine stand in 5 hours give or take and thats from undoing wires and breaking down suspension to pull axles. i couldnt imagine how much of a bitch it would be to leave the tranny in then pull the block. I only say this because you can bet your highest dollar on it that you WILL be pulling it again down the road. LOL..

Good color choice! It lets you detect oil leak better . Ill paint my block this color when it comes out some day

[phizzalot]

What did you use to prepare the block before painting it? looks a little ruff...

[Galant306m]

i painted it black lol that was just the primer.

got to order new pistons to get my rings, cylinders came out really good im waiting for travis to get here with my camera so i can take more pictures of the thing.

so im going to probably order some manly pistons with rings just cause im looking at running about 24 psi with the 20g.

[Galant306m]

What did you use to prepare the block before painting it? looks a little ruff...

i just used a angle grinder and a wire brush to clean it up and some carb clean to clean it off before i primed it, it doesnt look to bad and looks better then before, my grandfather has a nice wire wheel so we used that to clean off the deck too.

[mko]

Did you hone it by yourself or a machine ship did it for you /how much/?


Manley pistons - great choice! Thats what Im getting - best price for forged pistons!

[Galant306m]

yea i did it myself, i bought a spring style hone from snap'on and my grandpa taught me how to hone it and then put the cross hatching in, my cylinders mic'd up only about .0005-.001 taper which is really really good, after honing they are about .0015-.002 over the stock size so i can get stock sized pistons and rings which is really nice.

going to work on finishing up my FMIC mount tonight, snaked a peice of angle iron from work that is 25 inch's long so i just have to put some holes in it and that should be done, hoping to have the engine back together next weekend and in the car so all i have left to do is wire it up.

[phizzalot]

Hey galant306 how difficult is it to do drop in pistons on the 4g64 and built head? I believe I could do it but would need a step by step tut...

[Galant306m]

PICS i got more on my camera from last week but rob brought his camera and too these.

Um i wouldnt say its hard by any means its like doing every other type of engine just take your time and make sure everything comes out right, meaning just double check everything and then check it again. I can recommend a couple of things, get a new crank and have it reground to match the main bearings its worth the money and not having to spend the time plastic gauging the crank and the bearings. Seperating the rods from the pistons is another daunting challenge since the wrist pin is such a tight press fit, what i did is heated the area on the rods with a propane torch and use a vice with a couple sockets to press the old pins out, and since the new pins that come with the pistons will be the same tight fit, i took the pins and put them in the freezer for 4 hrs causing them to shrink. Then once the pins are cold take and oil up the rod end and the piston, quickly grab the pins and start tapping them in with a hammer being cautious not to miss and hit your pistons, it will be kinda tough but they will go in. I can make a tutorial for you when i finish the engine completely.

Oh and no i did not use the vice to put the new pistons on the rods. Lol

[Shadow19]

one more thing. Remember to put the piston rings in an x pattern. None of the rings should be at the 12 or 6 o clock position. Every motor i ever built has called for that in the book.

[Galant306m]

Thanks i was wondering if there was a position for them to be in.

[Shadow19]

10,2,4,8 o clock position

[Galant306m]

thats not Mitch thats Galanttuner.

[Galant306m]

Shadow I'm trying man. I'm working 50hrs Monday through Friday and now I'm working 6hr saturdays which doesn't leave much time for the car. It will be done soon enough I'm not rushing it cause that is how you make mistakes, but I do want it done more then anybody. And ziggen why the fuck whould. I mount my fmic like that? Actually its 12 inches tall I would need to cut half of my front end to do that lol. But the beast will live soon and this winter its coming apart again for some more modifications...... and imnot telling anyone except rob what is going on this winter. Shadow knows one thing but he is my boy lol so he has special privlages,

[ZigenScarface]

[blue8g]

[Shadow19]

He only tells me stuff to make me jealous. Though he has hooked me up with a very good dude thats gonna hook me up with some very good shit for a very good price. You guys keep on the look out in about 3 weeks give or take. Ill have me some new shyt! But good luck with this man. DOUBLE check everything. IM not sure if this is your first engine build but my first was kind of rough around the edges for me. I didnt fuck anything major up but i did install the crank sensor and tigger plate backwards along with the rocker arm tube upside down and the lash adjusters werent oiling correctly. I did pretty good for my first build though. Ive put about 25k miles on it and she is still ticking along and i beat on her depending on my mood.. LOL. BTW bro if you need some help man feel free to PM me or whatever. I can help out as much as i can on the mechanical shit. The wiring is a different beast. I havent fucked with that much. Thats why i need you my friend!

[Shadow19]

So like. He just gave me the list of mods for the winter. What the fuck does a banana, peanut shell, electrical tape and a g-string have to do with the mod list? Im still not impressed. I think he is missing a few essentials here. Maybe if he added a coconut bra and some super glue it would complete the list. Until that changes im not impressed with anything!

[ZigenScarface]

this thread = too gay for me now
