Holy cow. I missed a couple days and you got new shiny stuff.

 

Dude, that is far away... DO NOT WANT.

 

Thanks and I like yours a lot as well I know I need to step my game up, but I have been busy the last few weeks getting out of my Dads basement and into my own house again Been saving up long enough now and finally sealed the deal on a nice town home for the next little while until I can get a house built in the next year or two. The built house will be getting the 4 car garage to house all my toys lol. No more keeping them at the shop

I am mainly waiting on a few gaskets now and to get some parts back from powder coating and ceramic coating

 

Sweet shiny stuff is sweet!

I'm going to make a million foot extension cord for my own house eventually .

The basement to house step is always a good one. I would say that's of much higher importance than a car! Probably what I should be saving for, but oh well. A house can wait .

Since I'm still in school I get to use my parents 4 car garage so I must say I'm a bit spoiled with space. They're finally getting fed up that my car has been more or less a paperweight.

I scored a refinished house out at school in which I have my own two car garage for $300 a month . Indiana economy FTW.

 

My dad was saying the same thing as he has a Shop and I keep 2 of my project there right now (Evo 8 and E36 M3 shell) and he is really starting to not like the paper weights sitting around

$300 a month by your self or split rent with someone with a two car garage? I am jealous for sure on that price I am splitting a 2 bed 2.5 bath 1 car garage town home with a friend that is going to college and my half is $500 a month Damn good Utah Economy and College town

 

It is a refinished house with all new appliances, with 3 bedrooms, a big backyard, etc. It's me and two other guys. My portion is $300 a month with all utilities, cable, internet, yada yada. And I get the garage all to myself .

Thankfully my college is in a poor town .

 

The car's back together, but I can't drive it because the 70mm flange welded on the IM makes me need a M8x1.25x75 bolt that I can't get....anywhere, as it has to be a SHCS to fit the FullBlown. Stupid little bull**** like this infuriates me.

 

Grainger got some close...

 

It needs to be a socket head cap because the hex bolt heads have no clearance on the throttle body . I had to order them, but they'll be at my house by the time I'm back at school.

 

Cool!

 

That's a bad thing. That means I don't get to drive it until next summer .

 

Welp, I'm off to esquela this weekend, so this will be the last batch of pictures. The car is just awaiting the aforementioned bolts before she gets tuned, but I'll probably wait until next summer to tune it as I'll be 12 hours away from the car until then.



Put the baffles in the newly powdercoated, tapped, and -10an fitted VC:



Heard the torque ratings from Anti-Seize aren't consistent at higher ft/lbs, and saw how consistent this stuff is:




Putting the head on and S3s in:








Got a 120* fitting to work for the front balance shaft inspection hole fitting:







Re-did some more wiring:







This is for your Mr. Brunson:




Yay for fresh plugs and BradPenn:

 

Build looks great man. Looks like a lot of us have the same thing going on these days. lol.

But to the those of you who are curious about having a 220 service installed its very easy and anybody can do it. especially in a garage or anywhere the fuse box is easy accessible to run a new 30amp wire to a new plug. and then all that you have to do is plug in a new double pole 30 amp breaker or use two 110 15amp breakers. just cant be scared of electricity. lol. nothing to be scared of after you shut the main breaker off anyway.

 

Why do you have vacume port on exhaust manifold?

 

that looks like a EGT sensor
