omfgitsdonovan

03-28-2009, 08:19 AM

ok guys so its been a while since an update but no my list has grown.

so i have got myhands on a fully rebuilt sr20de-t rebuilt from top end to bottom end. the whole engine itself was converted to a turbo setup with the turbo coil packs tapped oil feed and return lines etc etc. its also a vvt motor so woot i have a little honda in me still.

i also purchased most of the parts for the 5 speed swap such as clutch peda brake pedal clutch lines master and slave cylinder etc. all i need to get my hands onto now to finish up everything i need before i can drop the motor in is a new driveshaft, flywheel, clutch setup, wiring harness and radiator.

omfgitsdonovan

04-01-2009, 12:02 AM

ok so now i have fully removed the motor and started on claning and prepping the bay for paint but man its a dirty job so many layers of grease everywhere and i mean everywhere

justin

07-21-2009, 11:08 PM

I'm with everyone with the rack leaving, but as far as the paint choice. Its unquie. When I first was told I was like eh.. I dunno. Once I actually saw the car in person I realized it wasn't that bad at all and it was actually looking good.

This car looks 100 times better then any MX-5 I have seen.

Brian

07-21-2009, 11:10 PM

If you use the rack, then leave it. If you are leaving it on for just looks, then I would ditch it

no need to wait to wet sand and polish. It would actually be easier to cut and polish it early. The longer you wait the harder it will be because the clear will be losing its softness. We usually cut and polish a car day or 2 after its been cleared

It needs better bumper and fender alignment. There is alot of gap. Otherwise the color, coilovers, and wheels really grab my attention. I like.

the reason the front has alighnment isuues with the fender and bumper is due to the previous owner hit something with the front left corner on the vehicle and mashed in some of the front left it will be an easy fix but havent had time ot do it yet
