So awesome that this is still going regardless of your recent issues. I remember about a year or 2 ago I had the opportunity to ride in this car. This thing is a unique machine. Thank you for keeping this thread alive! And thank God you're still here with us Gary. Happy Holidays and blessings for the new year!

  • Technica Motorworks replaced my water pump no charge
  • Dye put in the oil and indentified a leak coming from the braided oil drain hose and the rear fitting. So, I replaced it, solving that leak BUT...another leak is noted coming from one of the two allen head bolts that secures the nippled oil drain flange on the bottom of the turbo, ugh! It's as tight as it can be but, still a leak. Have to disassemble everything (LICP, downpipe) again, and cut a new gasket!
  • Have a pretty good leak coming from the bottom seam of the radiator too!
Anything else?!

Oh yes...

The engine falling on its face at 4000+ rpms is still an issue but...I told a mechanic friend of mine my story, ie; timing belt replacement etc, and he's leaning toward "KISS" and suggesting a tune for the AFR's are EXTREMELY rich at WOT and he feels it's just putting the fire out, hence falling on it's face.

It's still in the garage with a dead battery, and gathering dust. The AT was fine before all this happened and haven't touched it, other than change the fluids.

I hate hearing this man... I wish you were closer. I'd love to help you get it sorted out...

On another note. My little brother has an Auto RA. We are going to build a harness and see if we can set up and control the Auto with a Haltech Elite 2500 ECU. If it works we could have a Plug N Play option to replace the ECU on RA platform for both auto and manual cars!

For sale

Anyone interested, please contact me at illusiondweller62 at gmail dot com or, 609 569-3832. Make me an offer. I'm letting her go. I'd rather not part her out but rather sell her as is. She runs but, with the above mentioned dilemma. I have a pair of custom front axles still in the box and a custom LSD still in the box as well, that is included. Anyone know of someone in, or near Atlantic County, New Jersey, share this with them.

ANYONE...feel free to reference this listing on FB (https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/market/758161). I no longer have a FB account. You can use the above contact information. I'd deeply appreciate it...make it happen. You all have been an incredible help from the beginning...thank God for you guys. What a ride.
