Yoshi's build thread S52 on 1 bar... kinda

[shiboujin]

Next in line for a dyno tune. Car runs good now. Never did take an engine bay pic of it all together together so here you go. Slapped on the coil grounds real quick so I get the best possible grounding. I'm overkilling from stock but whatever. Wiring covers are off for easy diag for meow.



Chris, my tuner

The car is officially at Moore Automotive here in Fairfax VA. The car did start today but sounded much worse than usual. It was probably flooded but no biggie! I also towed the last of my E30s to it's new owner. Dex is in the hands of others now. I'm stoked!



This is the first time my driveway has been empty in over a year.

1. the car is looking great

2. the empty driveway is screaming for an e30 rallycross build :shock:

[shiboujin]

I forget the rates they charge but it's nothing out of the ordinary. Very industry standard. Chris has done MS1/MS2 but my car is the first MS3 he's handling. Tell him yoshi sent ya or something. Get me some brownie points lol.

[shEck3lls0]

Yeah. I've talked to chris on the phone twice. He seems pretty cool. And I will be running megasquirt, and all that I needed done is a tune, so hopefully it goes well and he does a good tune for cheap. (semi-broke high schooler talking)

They've tuned my car a number of times. As long as all they have to do is tune, it should go quickly. Otherwise, it might take a while. Great service. I love chris (the tuner).

[shEck3lls0]

I am taking my car to Moore auto to get it tuned once the turbo build begins. Let me know how their service is.

A few rich ass back fires shot out chunks of hot cat and got caught in some leaves. Like it was seriously a much bigger fire than I was expecting. At least it wasn't IN my car.

[dnick]

lol i saw your post on fb, haha i was curious about that cat... but your getting closer!

[shiboujin]

So I sorted out my MS issues, a 10k resistor inline with the crank signal fixed my desync issue. Since nothing was tuned the car backfired a lot. Like huge flames. Then a couple pieces of high flow cat shot out the back and caught some leaves on fire...

I want to finalize some wires for the gauges, still need to do the front window, and some other stuff but then it goes to the tuner. Maybe this weekend or next. W00t!

Yeah yeah, this weekend then thats it haha.

Grounded... Ah, the joys of being 17. Parents trust you to build a car, but fail one class and you're grounded ahahah.
