What I have done in '05
 

Thought I would make a thread of all the stuff I did in '05. Havn't posted any of it up yet, so I got off my ass and did it finally.

5spd convesion winter 05, motor build spring of '05, turbo'd it in late summer/fall '05.

1997 D16Y8 as the slave motor. Belonged to my friend steve b4 he melted a piston down. Sold it to Nathan Temple (yes...that Nathan Temple) for $1k, he was lazy and sold the rods out of it. He was 1 slug and some rings away from having a built motor. I bought it for $350 from TB to oil pan. Without rods or pistons.

Crank was ground to match girdle and block, which were line bored. All the clearances are 10 over stock, so buying bearings is easy. Head was rebuilt with OEM parts. slugs are 20 over stock. Used a D16Z6 oil pump instead of a Y8 b/c of better flow. New OEM water pump. Block posted with aluminum studs.

rehoned the cylinders and I had a perfect block ready to go. Sucked putting in the rods. Eagle does not include it in their instructions, but you have to notch your block and girdle. They tell you only after you call their support line. Not a big deal, just nice to know when you buy them rather than mid install.

The whole Set-up ~ $1.5k Thanks to all for the hookups and stuff.

Turbo set-up
DSM 450's
.63/.60 T3 (MT '88 Thunderbird)
Uberdata
CCA Intercooler(3"x 6"x32")
2.5" charge piping (all welded except to TB, IC, and Turbo)
2.5" DP and exhaust to Dynomax "super turbo" muffler (All mandrel)
Short Tubular Mani (CSAddict on HMT)

All of this was made possible through and the HMT TC Crew, and Nathan Temple for selling me a great motor for dirt cheap.


Internals ready to get together. SRP pistons, eagle rods, The one in the middle is an old melted piston we had from Steve's last motor.

Re: What I have done in '05
 

I remember helping pull your engine for that del sol, that thing was completely trashed!


I'll get in on this too.

After fixing/building this car for a year I drove it for a few months before someone offered me a tiddy sum of money, which he promptly wrecked it and parted it out.

Re: What I have done in '05
 

Do a forced title transfer.

Re: What I have done in '05
 

Well seeing how the address he gave me doesn't exist and he misspeled Steele county ("Steel") that won't happen. The last ticket he got was in early Nov and the tabs expired later that month so hopfully things will have taken care of them selves when he had to show up to the DMV.

Re: What I have done in '05
 

Holy ---- Cray since you brought up Nate he came out of nowhere like a couple of weeks ago and pm'd out of nowhere. Was like last march maybe last time I talked to him after I gave him a free A6 longblock along with a boatload of other ---- and never heard from him again. Went on bragging on how he's got two boosted rex's. Then I asked him when I was ever gonna get anything from him for all that ---- and I haven't heard from him since. He still goes by SSL2K for his AIM name. Rat bastard and all I did for that kid. Damn I haven't fully boosted a car for a year now. Now the way it's looking I won't be for the next couple of years wtih my budget on a severe limit with the wife in school full time now. Should have a fund for my hatch to get boosted again and donate some parts to me! lol.

Re: What I have done in '05
 

things I did car wise in 05

rims, suspension,
first turbo setup blew motor after 1100miles untuned
6puck clutch, motor mounts, the usual setup,
second turbo setup second motor blew up in 100miles or less I am now nicknamed hitler cause I can cause more damage to an engine faster than hitler could
don't want to list everything cause I did alot and learned alot
cray you did alot too, I went to my first hmt meet when you did the auto to manual swap

Re: What I have done in '05
 

i appreciate what youve done, good job. now what you didnt do is send me my chips, rat bastard :1

Re: What I have done in '05
 

I sent em twice. The first time they got returned to me. You then gave me a different address, so I sent it there with tracking. It got there according to USPS. That is why I havn't even thought about it since I sent it.

Re: What I have done in '05
 

Cray, you're a bad shipper, and your engine builder has sexy hands. 8)

Re: What I have done in '05
 

watch out for that builder, he put a motor together for me and when i started it up it was knockin like a mofo :7 . I kinda find it amusing that he made a thread of what HE did in 05 and everyone started posting their ---- ::) . hahahaha :-*

Re: What I have done in '05
 

I ship faster than you do, (if your wife isn't home).

Re: What I have done in '05
 

You're full of it. You asked me to sign your valvecover, but that doesn't mean I built it. :S

Re: What I have done in '05
 

Boosted a d.
Unboosted the d.
Bought a b.
Gonna buy another car in 06 for the built b.

Re: What I have done in '05
 

Haha, you obviously dont know HMT yet, just messing man, but you know this is hmt (Hijack-----------ers-Threads)
Good ---- Cray

Re: What I have done in '05
 

I got no problem with the threadjack. Especially when it is the TC crew posting their stuff.

Props to mike, I used his T-bolt clamps for my set-up.

Re: What I have done in '05
 

I sold my boosted civic. From what I have heard, it was in the low 14's on the 200,000+ mile JB welded block on 15+psi for about a week before it popped.
Then I moved to Japan
I have a brand new house with brand new ---- in it
I own a skyline
I own a SiRII

dam. what a year.
Next year the plan is to hopefully be competitive in the gymkhana circuit. First race is in April.


BTW, what ever happened to Nathan Temple? did that other guy ever get his ----?

Re: What I have done in '05
 

Yeah what was that SSL2K or whatever his name was... wasnt he banned? Its going back a while now...

I popped a wastegate this year, got a new one from pete, and got into the 13s on the turboaccord with street tires/stock motor, so not much work into the car this year but i didnt spend as much time on it as i wanted to... Oh well though. You should join the drift circuit, Frank
