Now, I have a problem with the 1g ECU not seeing the sensor ground, so I used the stock Galant ECU to start it.
And I thought that my soft brake lines popped a month ago, but it turned out the hard line near the gas tank ruptured. I need to find a way to repair and replace it.
that caliber wing is a good look ..great work I always know I can look to this thread for Inspiration
Thanks Brother man.
Got another fender today, now I gotta save up for paint.

I really got tired of not having heat and finally took things apart. This is what I pulled out from the heater fan blades and evaporator box.

Ew lol
Well someone before me decided to use one of those soft baffle things, you find behind door panels, and carpet, and use it as a cabin air filter. That along with rain and moisture did the damage above.
Nice work MKO, Cool to see your still at it :)
Finally finished with all the seats.

I had a hardline go on my GS before I sold it. I just went to Autozone and get a few segments of brake line of the proper thread and ran a new line from the proportioning valve back to the flex line. It wasn't as pretty of a bend as OEM but I wasn't about to drop the gas tank to make it "sort of" oemish. I went ahead and replaced both rear lines. I honestly expect all of the 7g owners to encounter this issue sooner or later as they get older. I could have cut the line near the back, flared it, and installed a short line to it.... but the lines are old and brittle and I wouldn't want to go through all of that hassle just to have them pop again or to have my flare job leak. I don't F around with brakes or safety.Quote:

Well I've posted it on FB, but might as well post it here.
Not too long ago I ripped apart the engine to have forged internals installed. It took me a couple of days to have it all off, but finally managed it.

I wanted to do a little better build this time so I decided to go all out and race port the head. It took me nearly a week to do it.

Got a new TB and the thing is huge compared to the factory 1g NT TB. Its a S90 70mm. The biggest pain here was porting (Gasket matching) the TB to the intake manifold inlet.

Got everything powdercoated and eventually this happened. I put it together after a month or so.
http://i1006.photobucket.com/albums/...psmessr02p.jpg
Meanwhile all turbo stuff was getting ceramic coated in jet black. Everything got wrapped in titanuim wrap and ready to be installed.

I plan on using the fender flares, but that will happen a bit later when the weather gets warm
http://i1006.photobucket.com/albums/...psifeyzlu6.jpg
Nice work!
Intalled new battery cables today and a custom battery tray tucked in the front bumper again! Ill try and start the car on Thursday.

Installed Jay Racing alternator relocation kit with 120 amp GM alternator. Im very happy with it.
http://i1006.photobucket.com/albums/...pseeunsftg.jpg
Also installed 2g DC front strut bar. For proper fittment, it need a hole on each side to be enlarged. BUT it has hood clearance problems at the shock towers. I guess Ill have to cut some of the hood skeleton support to make it close nicely.

This is nice wish I had the time and money to make mine a 4g63t fwd turbo
Man your going all out with this thing! do you have WHP goals? and is it going to be your track car? Looking good though, you have quality work. are you doing the exhaust coating and port work your self?
Haha thank you. Im aiming anywhere between 500-600 whp on pump gas. It will be a semi daily with mostly track use car. Everything that you see her,e besides the coated parts, is done by me.
Nice that is some crazy power to be had. Also i see you painted the IM was that for heat protection? I was trying to figure out if there is any proven thermal paint out there. My NA setup on my prelude Im trying to lower intake temps with thermal gaskets and coolant bypass etcQuote:
