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 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 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. -------------------- GVR4 866/1000 = the perpetually broken car
