Took a break from wiring to straighten up my rough cuts on my bumper and grill

 

Did these bolt up without any modifications? I take it these are a simple swap. If so, I might think about this as well.

 

Did you buy the car with the white face gauge or did you install it and the T/A bezel recently?

 

Darth cypher- everything is direct bolt in and an easy swap.

King nothing- I installed the white face gauges and ta bezel myself.

 

Would you buy the white face gauge from? I found a whole T/A gauge cluster with the bezel on CL and now I'm just trying to determine who I should buy the white faced gauge from.

 

looks like the same thing i have the macewen motorsports one's

 

I got them from hawks third gen's website. They are easy to install as a one piece so everything lines up well and I like the way they look especially with a ta bezel.

 

Thank you sir and I agree!!!

 

I don't have my car torn down at all and have not even messed with anything in that area. Would I have to remove a lot of stuff to get to where I can swap the lines? I'll check it out myself when I change the oil next time, but that might be for a bit so I thought I would just ask here.

 

Really nothing needs removed to do the swap. If you pull off the power steering pump pully it is a lot easier to get to the lines. After that it is just removing the lines from the rack and pump and replacing them. I went a step further an installed a new power steering cooler to get rid of the factory cooler which was easy as well. I got the cooler and line from Autozone as well as a 1998-1999 upper radiator hose.

Everything can be done however with the pully being on the pump just requires you sqeezing your hand some to reach the return line clamp.

 

Thanks for answering all the questions, I figured it was a direct swap for the lines, but wasnt sure if it had to be done with the pump out or not. Last spring I actually put one of those billet pullies on it mostly for looks but figured it would make it easier to pull the assembly off when I decided if I want to paint or buy a billet mount for the pump. So in my case it would be pretty easy other than making a bit of a mess.

thanks again

 

Well the fans and gauges are wired. Hot and cold side buttoned up. Radiator adjusted and added a procharger radiator bracket.




Next on the list is the get my cbr alternator relocation kit and finish the wiring of my racetronix Hotwire kit.

 

Final bits and pieces including a cbr alternator relo kit







Also sent my ecu to Mike Norris for a start up tune so once that is back I'll be hopefully firing and checking the systems. Then maybe some drive time before a final dyno tune

Vacuum manifold installed and lines run. Feeding the manifold from the intake. Now to get a serpentine belt and some odds and ends and this thing will be done. Well I still need to figure out my downpipe/exhaust

 

Did a run through on all systems and welded up a temporary downpipe. Will be either getting a Huron bumper exit or hopefully can find a shop to build a 4" full length at a reasonable price. Did get the chance for a start up though so getting closer.

 

Had a couple small issues that limited us on turning the car up more. Overall happy with the tune and looking forward to racing this year. Will likely turn the boost up once I get a handle on thE car.

 

That is awesome!

 

Picked up a Wolfe 6pt bolt in today. With the weather being so hot and not wanting to race in it I'll be working on the install this week.

 

I like the roll bar. I have been putting off getting one myself. How is the bolt in one?

 

I have wanted one for awhile and am getting the car to the point I need one. The bolt in was great everything fit well and install was pretty straight forward. Price is the only thing that sucks on them which is why I waited for a good used one to come up in the classifieds.
