Well here I am again. After spending a nonstop year working on my house, I got so burned out I didn't want to do anything. I realized a couple of weeks ago how little enjoyment I got from the house and how miserable that had made me. I decided to put my efforts into something that I would enjoy. To recap, here's a list of current mods.

Rebuilt engine using all mitsu parts
90 oil filter housing with an aftermarket cooler
Ported 14b
EVO3 Exhaust manifold+O2 housing
2g maf
3" intake pipe
Socketed EPROM ECU
510CC injectors
48PSI FPR
Walboro 255HP pump

Two years ago I put the car aside after several setbacks, namely the oil pump pulley fallin off after the initial rebuild, then the oil pump locking up after the head swap. I finally have worked up the courage to start on her again.

I ran the oil pump last night with the drill and was able to get oil to flow out of the turbo, so the system is well primed. The bottom end turns over free. The cams and crank looked to be 1-2 teeth off from eachother before I pulled the timing belt, so the valves should be fine.

At this point I need to:
Finish putting the oiling system back together
Put the transfer case and exhaust back together
Put the timing components back together
pump out the gas tank and replace with fresh
wacko.gif wacko.gif wacko.gif wacko.gif
burn a chip for it
Fix my intake problems
move the battery to to trunk(stupid galant battery placement)
hope like hell she'll start!!!!
if she starts......
Pull all of the tires and seperage the break pads from the rotors
air up the tires
boost leak check
stir and enjoy biggthumpup.gif

I'd like to have all of that done by the end of the month. If I can hit one thing a night, I'll get it done pretty quick.
