i didnt make it to the shop on firday, but i have to get there on monday to pick up some parts for my Mercedes Vito! So i can ask them on monday!

Sindregutt 02-24-08 04:35 PM

Didnt do much on my seven this weekend. I was so tired after working my ass off painting an aircraft on thursday. On saturday i fixed an oil leak on my Vito and found out why it ran so bad. THe compressor housing wasnt mounted properly to the rest of the turbo :rlaugh: Today i did some engine work. Not much but the core RE engine is almoste complete!

Are you in the military?

Sindregutt 02-25-08 12:18 PM

Wow
 
Nice work.

Sindregutt 02-25-08 04:35 PM

Finnished up the engine today and got it from the basement to the garage! Also mounted the transmissison again. I had to pay some bills today and saw my bank account.. Now ive ALOT of parts for sale! If i dont get any sponsors this year i have to work overtime every weekend :S

helghast7 02-25-08 10:35 PM

man everything looks sick!! i wish i could afford any of the things you do to your cars!

by any chance did you happen to find out the code yet?.....im a determined ass mofo(i really like the color too)

Sindregutt 02-26-08 02:14 AM

hehe helghast7, i didnt make the shop yesterday! Im gonna go there today to pick up a few more Vito parts!

Sindregutt 02-26-08 03:44 PM

helghast, TOMORROW!! TOMORROW! :)

Anyway, got the rear wing today! So the next four pages will probably be dedicated to "anti drifters" :rlaugh:
It is the ABS plastic 1600mm gt5 rear spoiler from ebay! Its superb :D If i need CF look ill just put some cf on it, but i probably paint it orange!
I also got the engine into the enginebay today. Took a while since i had a few parts left to put on it! Everytime i see only the core in the bay it suprises me that it can make that amount of HP.. Thats why i like it :D

The front Body kit is way to long... My wheels would snap that chunk off..... You sure are dedicated to your projects.

helghast7 02-26-08 11:20 PM

lol, you already know me to well

Sindregutt 02-27-08 12:35 PM

The woman working in the shop didnt find a code.. just 0001.. I know the name but i thinke ive wrote it before... lamborghini candy apple blue

helghast7 02-27-08 10:28 PM

...hmmm...this is quite confusing....while i was waiting for your answer, i did a little searching on my own, i found a code with the matching name....i wanted to see what you had and compare....the funny thing is they dont add up....heres what i found

Lamborghini Apple Candy Blue

LAM. *0002 Candy Apple Blue (mic 2ct)

i think im going to have to keep on searching(just to verify)....or i could just make my body guy do all the searching...lol

but thank you for your help, sorry for harrasing you lol

LeeTheSlacker 02-27-08 11:55 PM

mount that wing higher.

roof line or bust

Sindregutt 02-28-08 12:20 AM

haha helghast7! I did a quick search myself. I cant find nothing with lam. *0001 and the *0002 looks very close but i only found bad samples!
Good luck with your search!

The wing is going to be mounted 3"-4" higher and a real rear mount. That means its going to have one mount horizontal and one vertical like some of the other guys got.. I really need a waterjet now! That would be so easy to use to make a pair of new mounts :D

BTW, does anyone know where to find the oil pressure restrictor for GT35R turbo? rx7store is out and atp turbo cant ship to norway :(

Sindregutt 03-04-08 01:23 PM

wiring hell!! Makes me sick!

Sindregutt 03-17-08 07:22 PM

I havnt done much latley.. Pretty tired of cars at the moment but now i got only one month left to license day so i neeed to get the car done ASAP! Hopefully i have only some minor things left when the eastern vecation is over. One week vecation should give me enaugh time to fix the rest of the wiring, oil hoses, install the race interior, fuel lines, TIG weld the radiator, and assemble the rest of the engine. If i still got time i have some things i need to get done to the front suspension/steering. I want 50degree angle+++!

Dummy GPS antennas.. Just some crap i had on the roof to see how it would look (like lancer evo style) hehe.
With those rims and tires they will rub if i lower the car much. I have others im going to use but since im a drifter i need to be able to use every rim i got. Therefor i have different spacer i can use on different rims. This is not a good solution but i cant afford 20 18" rims with the correct offset.
Some parts of the build are irritating me. Ive taken some shortcuts i wish i had`nt done..
