    Je'Lani's 1986 2.7i - progress thread

    Got the 'i' injectors thanks to modernist !
    April 2016 edit : my car still had the red eta injectors , not very good , it ran horribly and misfired frequently , i have a 525 ecu and of course stroker, 17lbHr m50 injectors are also good.



    More updates next week

        im unsure of its condition blown gasket + brown muddy coolant , couldn't take the risk.
        jan 2016 : The head was pulled because of the symptoms of a blown head gasket.

              thanks modernist!. to anyone else: I'm still getting to the bottom of the electrical problem, it may be the simplest thing causing it. My goals for next month are replacing battery terminal cable, putting in an i cluster ( current cluster may be causing issues ) . And as soon as I get my costco battery exchanged i will check my fuses for excessive battery draw.

                Found a pair of 17x8 style 5's near a dumpster lol the tires are sh^t. Just need two more, there's alot of e38's at the junkyard. But i found 3 of em for $265 , so a full set of rc090 plus a spare basically for $265. Good deal...
                Cleaned them up a bit

                            Progress and notes of this month: school's been beating my arse and so has work. I've been gathering parts :
                            Oil pan gasket , oil filter , and finally the " I " vdo cluster bought from Constantine.

                            Others: Sourcing out my leaks and concluded it is the oil pan ( unless im wrong ) because the gasket is trashed and yeah..
                            - need to bleed air out of cooling system .
                            - install cluster and parts mentioned above
                            - hopefully drive the f*ck out of it again
