IS IT 2016 YET?

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?

congrats anyways..

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

thanks sorry about the lack of pictures as of right now....ill post them tomarrow around 430pm ( out of wyotech)

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

Glad to see the car made it. Its kinda funny that we did opiset swaps at the same time you did a obd0 a1 in a eg and I did a b7/z6 in a ef and we both had issues. Atleast mine bolted in right lol. If anything you have to post pics of the mad tyte jdm driverside mount lol. Maybe on your next trip home you can help me fix my brake buzzer isue lol.

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

welp time to change my calender, July 24, 2006 2016.

I wanna see pics. especially in the rigged areas.

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

my question is why? ???

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

absolutely a horrendous waste of time and material

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

Yep. A dual cam ZC I could totally understand. But a d16a1... no.

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

Well its what he had and he need a running car...i agree a big waste of time and money since you could have thrown any D series in within a few hours and D15 are pretty much free anymore...but congrats that you feel like you accomplished something

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

ya and you can get either an ef zc or eg zc for 500 bucks and they both bolt in


simplicity is such a waste of time

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

how is wyotech. from what i heard from a place in my hometown is that place is a joke. two people came in with 'degrees' and had trouble working there.

guess i am glad that i am not going to school to install things.

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

ok i was running that a1 today at 115 like a few hours ago....and it overheated....like always...its still working out its air pockets...they just keep popping out of nowhere....its cool though becuase i was ready for the bleeding and filling heh....but yea its really not such a bad deal....i got the whole crx for 500 bucks and it had a running motor in it....thanks for the props for those of you who said good job....but yea i promise ill post whatever i have from the day of the install and the pictures of the motor in the car...and ill take more tomarrow........oh yea so wyotech is pretty cool, but if you already know about cars i wouldnt go there unless your job wants you to get a degree.....i mean they teach you lots of stuff enough to be a starting tech....i knew pretty much nothing when i went and now i feel like i know a decent amount....mostly diagnosing.....but yea its worth it if you dont know much but if you do then dont bother....

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

good deal that its running cake.

post up pics man

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?

yea this is my engine running im gonna go on imageshack or something and upload some pictures....

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

Haha where you guys marking the t-belt with a grece pen to see if it was still hiting the mount? I should post pics of my b7/z6 mini-me so everyone can laugh at my wiring :P

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

The overheating issue always happens with that motor in the ed/ef chassis. It's partly because the top radiator hose sits a bit lower than the water neck off the a1's. Try dumping a little water-wetter in there too, it might help some. How'd you make out with the mount? End up making one after all?

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

haha there is actually a radiator hose clamp holding it in place....it rests on the the car so we just clamped it down....yea i know i know its not a good idea but ---- it works for now i think im gonna make an adaptor plate this weekend...so it should be alllll good ....i have a ---- load of vaccum leaks and the motor is knocking....and overheating...i think that pouring it in the high part might work out fine...good call ....

Re: IS IT 2016 YET?
 

oh yea and i have to move the alternator becuase when my car is lowered the axel rubs on it....and now it doesnt rub unless i got pretty fast around right turns.....
