if you bring your car down here i will put a fresh paint job on it if you wanna put all new hoses and a set of headers on for me along with a few other engine mods... :D

I got the echanical Handeled locally. jon did the RB26 on my friends skyline so the TT convertion is no biggie. but he said he dosent touch wiring. I am getign the same BC u are. Defi gauges are pretty much JDM so I'm getting those too. think U cna help witht the wire up if I go down there? I can throw something in for U if U want. :D

Im going to get the BF series. Those are sweet! I'll be selling my autometer C2 volt and boost guage.

arent those stock STi gauges?

Damn 91zxtt, That engine bay sur luk pretty. Makes me ashamed. I think I'll lock my hood. Let me know when your gonna start it. I want to go outside and see if I can hear it.

*Drool* Nice. Ill be getting the white lit ones. I just need to decide how I'm going to mount them. This setup here looks awesome but get's in the way of the stock guages some. This is from a member of tt.net

You may not be able to hear the car, but I'm sure you'll be able to hear me if it doesn't start. Here are a few more shots. I polished up the throttle bodies and the throttle balance linkage. They came out purdy. I had to cut the front bumper so that the DOOLZ will fit. I also bought a new grill. Billet aluminum. I don't quite how it will look, so I'll be asking your opinions when it's done.

The dumbass working on the plenum still hasn't gotten it done. He was going to try to get it done when I was in Chico last Monday. Still nothing.

I got the stereo back in it. I forget how much better it sounds than the OEM Bose one in the truck. Night and day.

Hopefully I can get the plenum and front bumper on this weekend. After that, it's just plugging everything back in and running the rest of the fuel line. Then I guess I'll just have to start it up.

ha ha ha Best of luck hopefully it'll start. gotta Hear tha baby Roar :D if not guess we'll hear U "pray" lol can;t wait. U got one wicked Z32 man wicked.....

what did you use to polish them with?
any particular procedure or tools?

A buffing wheel on a bench grinder and some jewelers rouge. I had to sand the throttle balance a little before using the buffing wheel.

ZXDude-The BC wasn't that bad. Just lots of vacuum hose. The hardest part was deciding where to run the vacuum hose and wires through into the cabin.

Sorry for the big pics
This is how I had mounted My Profec II. It gives it a subdued/stock look in the clock position.

I cut of the mounting tabs off the side of the clock with a dremel then used plastic fusion to glue them to the sides of the BC so I would have screw on bracket for the BC. With just a little bit of shaving around the hole you can clealy see all of the controls without them poking through the mounting hole too much.

Plenum's on!!! Harness is in place. Vacuum hoses are in place. I'll post pics tomorrow. I'm thinking 2 more weekends and I'll be turning the key.

It's amazing how well the wiring harness is put together. Everything fits so well.

It looks like an engine again.

oh god ! that is onethe best and cleanest engines I have ever seen on a Z32. I bet it's powerfull too!!! Can't wait to hear it come to life. anithign else left to do? When's Dyno Day? How much HP are you expecting? how long did it take you to complete? and most importantly How much was spent? :cool:

dayyyum homie, that looks good. that babys gonna haul ass.

Holy sh*t, I drank 2 beers just looking at that engine. I don't care how much power it has, it's sweet and looks good.
Did the Demi-Gods give you instructions on how to do it?

That's one sexy beast 91. Hopefully mine will achieve that level of glory...

good god man, that is absolutely beautiful, good work. I'm half tempted to drive down to your place to see this monster in person, just so that I can drool all over your hard work, j/k. Lookin good

that is damn straight amazing...are you gonna have any business trips to indiana any time soon? i still think you should have painted the timing covers. but im not complaining. :D

i don't understand.....

what do you mean you couldn't get any more RED into the engine compartment? :D :D :D

good progress so far, now for the real test....

does it start?

Do you think I overdid it with the red???

It really didn't seem like that much since I painted lots of small pieces over the past few weeks.

I do kinda wish I painted the timing cover. Oh well, a project for another day. T -minus 52,000 miles. :D

The only things I left are the following...
1) Front strut bar.
2) Fuel lines.

Did you guys that you need to slightly alter the fuel lines to and from the fuel rail in order to get the Carbing strut bar to fit? Me neither. :rolleyes: Just an FYI for those of you who are looking to add this in the future. It's not as simple as removing 4 bolts, dropping it in place and tightening those same 4 bolts.

3) Connect electric fan.
4) Add coolant.
5) Check and recheck everything thoroughly.
6) Boost controller mount.
7) Bumper

I'm sure I'll start it after #6 is done, but it'll be tough to fight the urge to drive it since the front is completely exposed.

8) Rear sway bar.
9) Rear strut bar.
10) Adjustable rear upper arms + NISMO bushings.
11) Speed bleeders on all calipers and ABS.
12) Flush with synthethic brake fluid.
13) Alignment.....badly needed.

Some of this stuff is left over from before. We'll call that era Pre WIFFS (When it f*ck*ng failed smog). :D

Wow 91 that looks amazing :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:



And bardabe that was a stock sti cluster, but the gauge in left top corner is not stock, it just looks that way. it's defi amber bf series ;) thanks tho :D
