Okay Time for a legit update... So lets get this *********nParty started..



As I stated before I love Wheat beers and Karbach Brewing Co. makes a damn good. one..



And you know this post would not be complete if I did not post up some DogFish Head..



The DogFish Head Piercing Pils has a very unique taste.. i dig it though.



Started off running my Hydro Brake lines to the rear..



Ran it through the center console and then T'ed it in the rear..



Went under the Accusump, Nice and clean.. Now I still have to run all my brake lines though..



You know things are getting close when you start buying all your fluids



Damn that is a lot of oil.. Have to fill the Accusump also..



Going to make sure this bad boy stays cool..



A quick look at her before I send her off to Dallas to finish wiring



Damn she is one sexy lady..



Loaded her up on these damn Uhaul trailers,, Can't wait to buy my own once she is done.. (Just take a guess which trailer I am aiming for)



I think the only thing I like about this trailer is the tire tie downs..



Dropped her off at Stew's house.. And she is in good hands.. and also has some nice company with her..



**** is about to get real.. some cutting..



Sad sad day..... But the out come will be epic











Have to water proof and smoke proof these bad boys..





The Start of my floor board so my feet have some were to rest and not get hot..








I just love how this thing is turning out..



Need grip no problem.. Love how it turned out in the end with the grip tape and all..

Let the wiring begin..




Love this location of were my breaker is..



Out of sight





Let there be light!!!




So badass to see everything turn on...






entering the cabin



Now let the ChaseBays **** fest begin...




Stew found the issue why the PCM would not turn on.. Was getting constant power were it should have not..



Like WTF!!








Issues fixed and put back together



After all that we need to rename this harness



On to removing all the unnecessary wires for lights..




First time I have seen lights light up on this car for about 3 yrs.. so stoked.




Install my IAT sensor



Time to remove this 3yr old gas.. It was nasty to say the least.. and I had like 7gallons of it..



Before we stated we wanted to reroute the fuel lines better.. So more fittings were ordered..



And this cute little filter




Oh **** we have pressure.. We def bumpped this up with my FPR... But man over 3yrs its good to see some pressure.. lol




PCM is talking so lets do this..



Okay what all you guys have been waiting for.. Now I post everything on this build the good and the bad.. So with that being said I think this is Bad...LOL my idle is all jacked up so we are working on the issue as we speak and I should have a better idle vid for you soon.. But Like I promised we have a heart beat.. So stoked right now..

Now I got to hear this thing in person and man is it loud and rowdy, just how I wanted it to be.. can't wait to rip in this thing

I NEED TO KNOW WHERE YOU GOT IT WIRED!!!!
I've been looking for someone who could do crazy good wiring like that.
Glad to see your making some headway on this, get it on the road and get to drifting!

Hell yea glad to see you got it started up. It's always a good feeling hearing and seeing all your hard work pay off. What all did he have to do to correct the pcm issue and did you have any trouble with the body harness?

Royal_T

Thanks for the kind words,,, it does feel really good to hear something after all this time.. Now to work out the lil things..


So I will have to get a better write out from him to explain what he had to fix. I know I would leave some stuff out..

Royal_T

Sooooo the ChaseBays BS continues... Figuring out why it sounds like **** and wont hold a idle..





BAM!!! Pins were not locked in,, Like come on... So we did not have all eight ignition signals more like 6.. We have a rough tune but need to get a wide band on it. Also my TPS sensor reads backwards.. 100 at idle and 0% at WOT (guessing chasebays is to blame for this) So going to buy a new TPS just to be safe since mine was used.


But as of right now I have another vid with a better idle that I will post up (question how do you embed Vimeo vids?)


So for now I am going to bring her home, run my brake lines, lower car and get alignment and then head back to Dallas to get tuned and fix any issues we come up with..

Sucks so many issues with the harness but damn it sounds and looks good. Congrats on the start up. Oh and ill be on the lookout for that Dogfish Head Namaste here

Unfortunately, your issues with Chasebays are not an isolated incident; his name has become ubiquitous with wiring bugs (at least in the Honda world).

Okay so here is another vid (yes vid is shitty, I will get a better one later)

So we got the car to idle better, still need to jump on the dyno so we can iron out a few things but hey you get the ideal..

Nice hommie glad to hear it, I bet thats like the best feeling after dumping so much money and time into it. I been following your builds since the G35driver days way back then. Im about to start up my chevelle for the first time this weekend I can't wait.

afterfire6942

Awesome to see you've finally gotten it started! I've been quietly following along for a long time (half just for the beer geekdom). It's unfortunate about the whole chase bays thing. I used them for me 2jz swap into an ma70 body and it was a disaster. Had to argue with them to get the money back and went with someone else. Their harnesses look nice, that's about it.

Wow looking good !

Royal_T

Thanks man for following.. and Hell yeah it felt good to hear it.. Now all I want to do is drive it now.. lol

Lucky you, I hope to one day build a Chevelle or Camaro Prostreet style.. In do time I guess.


Good luck.

Yeah man all looks, Harness is straight trash.. I differently learned my lesson.

I bet that 2jz was fun..

Thanks again



Thanks

Any updates on the car and the wiring issues

Royal_T

^^^ Funny you ask.


picked up the beast last night with the "Tow Pig"






I will have more pics and vids come this week. Car sounds like the devil and I love.

Royal_T

Okay so I fixed my TPS sensor.. First I bought a new one just to rule out a bad TPS sensor. That was not the case so I knew that the sensor was reading backwards.. After switching the 5v and ground wire we were good to go.




Here is a little vid.. I need to take a proper vid but these will do for now.

Now that we have this wrapped up next on the list is to install my rivet nuts for overfenders, install brake lines, lower car, get alignment, wrap car and then schedule a tune session cause car needs it bad.

Nice, sounds damn good and your reaction in the video says it all on how you feel about it.
