lappy Posted October 3, 2008 Report Posted October 3, 2008 Great job. That engine bay looks awesome :hmm: Quote
Taz_Rx Posted October 3, 2008 Author Report Posted October 3, 2008 thanks for the comments guys. :hmm: Ok here's some pics: New oil return line was one of the things done in this stint off the road. Now all turbo lines are speedflow/aeroquip. Can also see dump pipe and K-T bell and reduction starter motor...... In progress pic...... Completed engine bay. Gave it a quick polish, but could be a lot better...... And a couple of other randoms...... Quote

Taz_Rx Posted October 3, 2008 Author Report Posted October 3, 2008 Good :hmm: gunna take a little getting used to but its bighty as. Won't be too rough with it until I given it the chance to bed in a bit, but it definately not slipping on 10psi like the last one was. Its a bit noisey like the mazda one trying to slip it too. Quote
Medicine_Man Posted October 3, 2008 Report Posted October 3, 2008 That is bloody tops, Would love to see some more action videos :hmm: Quote
Taz_Rx Posted October 3, 2008 Author Report Posted October 3, 2008 They'll be coming soon mate. :hmm: I'll give the head gasket and clutch etc some grace period and then wind the boost up some more. Hopefully Loupee will want to swap me turbos soon and then it'll get wound up again!! :y: Quote
untubbed_20 Posted October 3, 2008 Report Posted October 3, 2008 Nice job!, thats neat as, can't wait to see some good boost in its guts cheers darren Quote
78_7kRolla Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 Hey si, great work mate. I was wondering how much the (trd?) oil cap set you back? Cheers Matt. Quote
Taz_Rx Posted October 4, 2008 Author Report Posted October 4, 2008 Think it was about $15 off ebay. They pop up on there every now and then, but normally about $40. Quote
78_7kRolla Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 Ok thanks mate and keep up the good work. How's the clutch working out? Quote
ke20rolla Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 What did you polish the rocker cover and timing cover etc with, Autosol? :hmm: Quote
Taz_Rx Posted October 4, 2008 Author Report Posted October 4, 2008 Yeah just some sort of cream polish. What exactly you use doesn't matter as much as prep sanding befor hand. :hmm: Clutch is good, I adjusted it a bit today so the release point is a bit further down as it has very little take-up. Is your expensive custom jobbie a button as well or just organic? I'll be hopefully putting my W50 behind my 7k soon, i'll let you know how I go with that. :y: Quote
Falken_KE30 Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 I liked how clean you bay looked with no wiring everywhere, so i decided i want that look. So started doing it yesturday, and ive spent about 7-8 hours and have only just finished the wiring behind the guard on drivers side.. damn what did i get myself into LOL Quote
