damn we should all meet up and chill someday wen u come to socal

 

purple injector is turbo, high resistance

so you are good,

just make sure the resistor pack is eliminated properly and power transfered to the injector plug.

 

hey dk if you pick me up, i can pull parts off my car we could try on urs to see if it starts like the ecu, afm etc

 

yeah man no doubt pm sent

 

thx petex.

Thanks austin, but its cool man, Ive gathered almost everthing I need already..Just waitin on couplers now

El Nene where in socal are u livin at? Theres usualy alot of events that go on around here like 7 meets and stuff!

 

probably back to oceanside / vista area

 

you get this **** running yet or what?

 

not yet, waiting for the couplers! oh icant wait.....damn...
when its ready im guna tow it up the hill with my dads truck and pop start 2nd...hopefuly it fires upp

 

make sure you crank it with out the injector fuse a bit so you can build oil pressure
then after that is done pop the fuse bcak in and push start it


why are you push starting it again...lol

 

he said he thinks his starter is cranking slow

 

yeah my starter is dyin.... ii twas barely spinning fast enough before to start my car...

 

could be battery though, did you try jumping? since ur car sat for so long.. . usually a dying starter will not spin at all, usually randomly spin

 

yeah i had my dads truck jump start.. The battery did get weaker tho during the time of the swap, its still a new battery...yous guys know if autozone charges ur battery for free?or was it pepboys or kragen that does it?

 

autozone will charge your battery for free. I was there just yesterday.

 

i was wondering if you kept the TII trans/drive train throughout the whole swap...Turbo, back to na, now back to turbo... cause im planning my swap, and if you kept your TII trans/diff when you had the n/a in there maybe i could start from there on up.. if so, what did you have to do for it all to work with the n/a?

 

yo dk, did you pick up the t2 starter i gave you from finishlines house???

let me know if it works!

and thanks for the Great paint job on the parts!











cant wait to slapem on the GTUs T2

 

Two things what paint did you use for those red parts.

Also I love the hood props for your t2 swap dude.

 

yeah i kept the turbo 2 drivetrain setup the whole time, but recently I wanted more lock on my diff so I took out my t2 diff and halfshafts and welded my open diff laying around and swapped it in with the halfshafts. As far as the driveshaft, it is still t2, I modded the t2 driveshaft to fit a NA diff, and can still fit a t2 diff.
My Na was weak with the turbo drivetrain setup.. I think cause the t2 drivetrain is beefier than NAs=more rotating mass..

well as of now, its t2 tranny, t2 driveshaft, NA welded diff, and na halfshafts..
Ive heard from my friend saying drifters can push up to 300 hp on stock halfshafts np.

If your guna use a NA motor with t2 drivetrain, Youll need to swap a t2 flywheel on ur NA motor, get aimpact gun to remove teh flywheel nut, swap the flywheels..It has to be a t2 flywheel to fit in a t2 tranny.

 

The paint was color matched with OMNI brand paint ,I think its also from PPG? But yeah its the cheapest paint you can buy in paint stores that works well. Instead of reducer, I used Acetone to mix it 1:1 [acetone is cheaper than reducer and works fine] The clear is A New European brand called UPOLV, its like $80 a gallon. My gun is 10 year old Devilbliss....I miss my anest Iwata.... I still need to get the waterborn adpaters...to convert my gun... I have 4 cheap homedepot water traps hooked up to my compressor...

 

dk painted it for me.. he does good work!!

heres the t2 hood before paint!

 

yeah i got the starter from Kents house, Ill put it on later when the weather cools down..
So far I have installed a few block off plates..I still need to find/make one more.... I also intstalled Jasons 4pt harness Oh and thx Himeh for the throttle cable mount and wheellss! Still waiting for the couplers, should be in today or tmrw... then Itll be ready to firee upp

I just noticed Himehs red I had color matched looks like EL Nenes red as well just a thought....

 

hahah this foo painted em on the ground/grass.. lol

any pics of ur car zero? look ssick

 

well still waiting for the couplings.... I was bored.. I had some clear coat and many tonners left over... plus a NA hood and a strut bar laying around....hmmm

 

PPG D## code Gloss black Global, plus MET. silver..... Going for a carbon LOOK...
Hmm some gold pearrllll for the 2nd stage paint
and UPOLV clear for third stage color..

Result should be something like Black carbon pearl goldd.

 

Heres my flucked up NA hood I am migratingtoo cuz my t2 hood is smashed.


just got done spraying..... my guns being gay again...sigh I need a new clear gun... then the plastic on the floor picked up wind and smootheredover the bottom of the hood as itwas drying.. hahahaah LOL at myself..
