EVOdoug's Build Thread

Most of the costly stuff is out of the way and I have decided to take my time over the winter finishing up all of the small things. I am still collecting the last of my fuel setup and am in the process of sending out my turbo to FP to have it inspected. I have also decided on a small runner Shearer Manifold with a 44mm Tial vband wastegate setup. When it gets warm again I will decide on an intake setup if any. I have a ton of cleaning up to do. I want to run black steel braided line for everything with AN fittings. I also have some stuff to wrap with heat-shield. VC, brakes, and strut bar are also getting powder coated. Basically I have my hands full this winter but it will really personalize the car as if I haven't already. My drivetrain was essentially all rebuilt this past year. Shep Street/Strip Ultimate Ratio Trans (EVO9 1st and 5th), Shep Stage 3 TC (new ring/pinion,quaife lsd, bolt upgrade), upgraded and rebuilt Exedy Triple. It has been a really long time (I have owned the car 2 years and it has been gutless for a year and a half ) coming but I think I see some light at the end of the tunnel. I will work on appearance once it is on its own feet.

-Brand New OEM 2.0 Crank
-Wiseco 1400hd Pistons .20 over
-Howards Rods
-ARP Studs/ACL Bearings/Timing Package,Water Pump,Oil pump,Gasket Kit, Balance Shaft Eliminator, Fluidampr Crank Pulley, misc ARP hardware
-Fresh Head
-GSC S2 Cams/ Supertech Springs/Retainers
-HTA3586/Slickmotorsports Manifold/Tial 44mm/HKS SSQV Recirc
-Hardpipes, Precision Intercooler
-FIC 2150/ Dual Walbro Setup/Wilson Fuel Rail/ FPR
-Shep Trans/ ShepTcase/Exedy Triple Ceremetallic









Some before pictures for reference later on.

Thanks everyone. I am looking to sell my 35r/manifold/wastegate setup soon so I can get this show on the road. I am still debating whether or not to pick up a new Exedy flywheel.
