Progress is being made

 

Turbo is all assembled and ready to go - have got all the turbo flanges and v-bands required just waiting on the head flange and can start work on an exhaust manifold

JDMYARD 4 Bar Map senor has been purchased along with a PWR Racer series intercooler

Once above head flange arrives can look to send the car to the fabricator

Jesus what does that flywheel weigh? 

9.5LB  OR 4.3kg I didn't intend to go that light but matched best with the new clutch

[thegreatestben]

I had that style clutch in my mr2. Gave in around 220kw atw. Nice driveability

[Honda Ass Dragger]

Well I had a offer to re-spray the car I took it up - Looks so good in fresh Milano Red
 

He also re-did the Carbon Fiber Spoon Wing

 

I just brought a House so now I'm broke so gearbox rebuild and fab work for turbo won't occur until Mid to end of the year now

Gearbox has been rebuilt

Brand New 2nd, and 5th/ / Reverse

New Synchros
New Bearings

New Clutch and FlyWheel fitted

Need to do a 1000 km then change gearbox oil

Finally then its time to go to fabractors for - exhaust manifold, down pipe, exhaust, intercooler piping and all plumbing

[Honda Ass Dragger]

Ordered Lines and Fittings to re-do the fuel system good by $1200

Then got the final parts needed before car can go to Fabricator for Exhaust Manifold, Downpipe, Intercooler Piping and Exhaust (TurboSmart Stealth 40mill Wastegate & TurboSmart PlumbBack Blow off Valve)

 

Mechanic coming latter this week to start doing lines and fitting the Alcon stoppers then its off to the Fabricator 

[Honda Ass Dragger]

Finally fitted the Alcons - now just need order some spacers to clear the wheels

 

[Honda Ass Dragger]

All back on the ground with 20mm spacer (Was concerned things might go Mexico)  but came out spot on tyres still within the guards

Next stop fabricators once Covid stuff ends 

 

 

[Honda Ass Dragger]

Turbo conversion is underway

[Honda Ass Dragger]

Progress has been made and the Manifold is nearly done

Just need to sort the External Wastegate positioning and the then sort the down pipes and the external plumb back piping 

[Honda Ass Dragger]

Manifold is welded - now to Fab down pipe, then fit external and its plumb back
