Went out last night for a longer cruise/tune session with Brian as my tuner. We dialed in a lot of different areas of the fuel map and changed some settings around too. Car is driving way smoother now. Love it!! The only issues as of right now are what looks to be a small boost leak, so I will be snugging up all the charge piping clamps and turbo compressor housing bolts. And an idle surge that seemed to have started after a lot of driving. We are thinking it has something to do with temp sensor heatsoak and/or looking at the temp compensation curve in megasquirt. 
Goal for this weekend is to finish the rear roller mounts on the fiberglass hood and get that installed. Still looking for a good material to use on the underside of the hood for sound deadening and some heat protection. 

Yeah same with any Fast Track. I eliminated the secondary air injection pump on my saabaru, disabled those codes in the CEL file of the ecu and forced all to be "ready". Took it to Fast Track, they plugged it in and 2 minutes later printed out everything was good.

Hood is just about done with the rear roller modifications. Not perfect, but when are fiberglass parts a perfect fit anyways, right?

Just saw a bosozoku Datsun Z this morning on 43. Army green paint, flares, and a black tail pipe that,curved up higher than the roof of the car. Couldn't get a pic in time.

Brian came to the rescue once again and figured out there was a vacuum leak from what MS was showing. Sure enough, the vac line to the ecu was off. We put it back on and drove around for a fair amount of time. Running great now!
I also started fitting the hood with the aerocatch hood pins. Talk about nerve-wracking.


I decided to make a little experiment with using the oem roller hooks instead of using 2 more pins near the windshield. Seems to work quite well. Now to just figure out how to do it permanently and stronger.

It's like when Chick-fil-A opened on Capitol. Gotta wait a month or 2 when the hype wears off then try it

Good thing the engine stand hasn't sold

dun dun dun! finally finished with photos - didnt get great shots, lighting was a little dramatic, but they'll have to do.











 
 
 

Swapping out an S14 for an M20 makes sense to me. There are fewer valves so technically less could go wrong, valve adjustments would be completed more quickly (time is money), and the engine code has an "M" to match the badge on the trunk.

Hey! Welcome to the club. Great pick up on the e36

Kris Clewell from Eurowerks is selling his rhd e30 320i touring if anyone is interested. Brand new BC coilovers and new wheels. Car is automatic. $5500

Similar to my private group. I only let people in that prefer flamin hot Cheetos. Not looking for any pansies, you know?

Today I started on the steel frame. Basing it off the wood proto type.

To make the bends I made slit cutts. To make it easy to bend.


Then I made an opps an over bend and welded a rail. So I re cut it open and bent it back

Better pictures. I havent had alot of time to look at the car.
But here is some rough body lines. And a front look. I hope your as excited as I am.

Did some work today got a wooden mock up frame done. no where close to done. But it's a start.
