Back again ... Track build

[nodoze]

So .... Some of you know , some don't . I haven't had a 3/s in 3~ years. Through some conversation , lucky timing and not pulling the trigger on a c6 Corvette , I ended up with my first vr4 ( slightly inferior to all the rt tt I had ) .

Those that know me though , know this is no ordinary vr4 . But a coveted , slightly well known car that has 90% of the hard stuff done . Just needs me to sort it out and give it my special touch of OCD.

By God I'm hoping I can keep a build thread alive . And keep progress on the car moving ahead. Hold me accountable people!

I'm excited none the less to be able to continue a good friends legacy . And that he entrusted me with it .

Pics are attached . Now to come up with a name / plate combo . Bcrccar is available in Iowa but that seems easy .... https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171222/e1da014d8904277e700b24664d0b08d7.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171222/15b7fad1ae9e1691c6d15f9f9f9cf692.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171222/14a003eaf346c9abf1188ca3074562e2.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171222/ae55c14cba791f6adfdfd62a38a43a96.jpg

Got a bunch of work done , engine harness is like 90% done . Need to replace painters tape with labels , add a few circuits to the aem and sheeth . Started planning the relay / fuse panel which will hinge down from the dash bar to the firewall to allow for access .

Next the front body harness , lights , alt . Will be gettingstripped . https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171225/25f9435042d88264e49171200809fd4e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171225/99a195a0546c6f6682af7b176c2d1608.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171225/3f7086671dbe3dc275fa2f4979d29dc2.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171225/23052944b2bee0649cc7b1477c3a9f9d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171225/61e078db6f52cbcba4bbf17adf9da1cd.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171225/f294b6ecbe547170925da3d1d86cec1d.jpg

That was quick, looks like your off to a good start on this project.

[nodoze]

i put about 3 ,5 hours days into this point . Worked a bit last night mainly just affixing proper labels to wiring , terminating non use wires, adding map circuit to harness. Waiting on the sheething and she should be ready to install.

Building the AEM mount today , for test fit and final welding in tonight .

[nodoze]

Pre paint of the aem mount . Only had like 14 gauge laying around so it's thicker than needed. Love using my Tig welder when I can . I put foam under the ECU , and sides of straps to shock mounted it a bit .
It is painted and ready to install tomorrow.

Going to pick up my 4x10 sheet of aluminum tommorow . Which is going to make some fun stuff . https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171229/e9193d9777550f5a587a5049cb581a74.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171229/6471b08c81a407fd59e053fa98e83df9.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171229/f8a6488896d41bd4a30c3dcfa5686516.jpg

And the best I could get of the manifold on front and rear is impossible to see untill I pull the manifold.

Progress has been slow this week, took monday night to clean up the shop from the mess of wiring sprawled everywhere. Took last night to spend with the wife and tonight i think ill be making a wire spool rack to hang above my work bench because i have like 10 spools of wire left .

[nodoze]

Been slightly slower progress . Installed the rally mirror , made my wire holder , took valve covers off and crawled all over the engine checking fasteners .

Sad news is I went to crank the engine over with the breaker bar and it's skipping timing on the crank pulley ... So I get to tear that apart next.

Spent Saturday trying to get my brother in law's old Chevy running ... Didn't happen think the cam jumped timing.

Spent most of Sunday either cleaning my car or building my wife a pallet wood stand for her [emoji217] . Not how I planned to spend the weekend but when your wife asks you to build something you do it , well because she let's me blow my money on toys without complaint

Last pic is of the crash bar getting bent up for some Fab work hopefully next weekend . Mount the intercooler , do some ducting etc. My father in-law gave me a heavy duty sheet metal brake . So going to have some fun building things. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180122/e7748d6c9aab071a05a696505eee3029.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180122/7b37838c4957170dc7db88b656e17f9c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180122/1f81af0163bdb9e7cb47747d135b8987.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180122/b8826067d225eba62adfae00edb8fa0b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180122/381f0ed6cc578173011736c78da37001.jpg

Managed to tear the timing apart. From what I can tell the timing was not set properly with the eccentric at only about 9 o clock . So reset that and life seems good there.

Got the engine thrown back together , downpipe on , all fluids filled . Removed the old fuel lines. Will be draining the tank today and start plumbing in the new lines .

Plan is to make a fuel cell , but imay wait till next winter and do some of the other Fab projects I need to .

Got all the nasty 6 year old e85 flushed from the tank . Intercooler pipes laid out and what cuts and changes I'm making to the hotside and started on my crash bar / amount intercooler and some other shit mounts to it . Need to take 2 inches out of the legs and will fit like a glove . Start making mounting tabs at that point for things .

Going to go rob the inlaws HVAC supplies for ducting metal .

Didn't get a ton done yesterday , had to do search for parts locally and was only able to come up with one . A 6an female to female fitting .
But it let me install 90% of the fuel system , ran and secured lines all the way to tank.

You probably can't tell but I moved the for from the rails to firewall , installed a flex fuel sensor ( needs wired ) , installed a Russel fuel filter as my old ones are obsolete and no longer have replacements available .

Need a fpr gauge , need to bring home Mac valve from work , install wideband and a few other things. But getting closer . https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180204/bf166a898829d18f49b1aa386c2e3c03.jpg

Another thing you can try is to add the 2G window clips so when the window is up the clip will prevent the lexan from blowing outwards.

Look at the top of the window towards the rear corner and you'll see a small piece that sticks out and prevents the window from being pulled out (by air pressure, probably for noise reduction at high speed, but also slightly prevents break-ins). The window and gasket are at a set of angles so that when you open the door and window drops down slightly and clears the piece, but when shut the window is wedged behind the tab.

[anyonebutme]

Also helps if the window is shoved upwards into the groove in the seal.

Thank you, that is a good idea . I spent an hour looking through various parts diagrams trying to find those , that's roughly what had come to mind. I'll see if a partout guy has some. That Aaron guy hasn't responded in over a week soo..

Well it's been a lot of little piddly shit the last few days , some vac lines . Installed battery box. Tested lights , all electrical circuits I could . Even cranked the car tested clutch switch etc.

Got the throttle cable done, the massive accufab made placement less than ideal . And routing but I made it work . Shortened a stock cable , flipped it upside down , bent the hard parts .

Got my shifter cable brackets finally. Man that Aaron Chandler is a pain in the dick to deal with or doesn't like me . Tried buying these brackets he would not sell them to me. I had to have a friend buy them for me and ship them to me . Like fme seriously . And it only took him 5 minutes from the time I asked to the time of asking me to PayPal him.
-rant over -
Still needed horse shoe clips but reworked some brake retaining clips from a GM.

Finished the sticker bomb on the splitter. Ran some vac lines , not all . Will be installing some gauges , Mac valve and finishing vac lines this week .

wow great thread! definitely delivers. Question for you, when you ran the fuel lines to the tank, how/where did you route them near the rear of the car? over the subframe? under? I have -8/-6 lines that I need to run to the fuel hat, ran them from where the AWS lines once ran on the drivers side, but haven't figured out how to go from there.

If you have pictures that would be great.

If you have pictures that would be great.I can get pictures but I ran them essentially the same routing as stock lines. In between the subframe and body . Attached to the stock line retainers. Reused the stock line protection covers . Really just the stock routing .

Been another slower week. The lightning has required some maintnence - idler arm , repack and set wheel bearings . Prepped the m3 for spring (checked fluids, tire pressures etc) will be ordering the oil change kit (fuck BMW oil changes 100$) because it takes stupidly hard to find 0-60w tsw oil that if I don't use it the rod bearings will shatter like glass and the universe will implode.

I ordered a cam sensors only to receive it and find out their is a "adapter" that goes between the head and sensor that I don't have . So that is on the way .

Made a coolant catch can , out some split loom on some wiring . Finished some all the vac lines.

Will be ordering fuel pumps Friday , and short of setting base timing once it's idling the car should be ready to troubleshoot / tune.

Also had another woodworking commission that has eaten up some time .

I havent seen any of them since ng05 or something like that. the car and wheels just look too particular.Yea John has had this car for a very long time . His wife has a sandstone car that is gorgeous . About then 05/06 is when I met them as well and first got into 3/s's

Fuel hat got installed last night . Kinda ... Lost two of the nuts . Was held up the day before because I forgot hose clamps . Going to finish that tonight , get some e85 . Also my cam position sensor mount thing will be here today so hopefully will install that .

By Friday night I should be ready to hook up to the aem , flash the base map I have in and give her a start. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180322/336d72a6f0475f0849a324447d8b701f.jpg

Sigh , life is getting in the way . Finished the coffee table for the customer only to have him commission a end table . That is in the painting / staining stages now .

Had to take down 4 trees at the house. Doberman puppy broke a window . Spring yard cleanup and fun home owner shit .

Had more fuel leaks that i repaired. Went to start the car and no spark/ inj pulse . Assuming it's a setting in the ems as all cas wiring has been confirmed , have 12v and grounds every where that needs it etc. So going to play with that tonight .

If anyone with aem experience has any input that would be appreciated I have read some setting may be messed up causing this .

Had to get the M3 serviced ( which is like pouring liquid gold into a engine ,15$ qt ) , so it's ready to roll for the season. Harley is on the list this week . Once the weather gets constantly nice , need to detail the M, Harley and lightning .

Picture of the shop dog. She does very well for being 18 weeks old . My pittbull has gotten considerably lazy and attached to my wife so the doberman is supposed to be mine . Don't think she will ever replace the Pitt I raised since 8weeks though in my heart. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180402/d0777502faac7b65be8976f7bddf0fd4.jpg

Anyone help ? I'm getting rpm signals in , but still no coil or inj pulse. In the fuel table I can see the inj pulse go from 900 to 1500. Convinced it's a setting. .maybe I have bad drivers ?https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180403/390059be9cc6a0885d356b656aba64a5.jpg

Been slow going , I've recruited 3si vet nytryder or however you spell it , he runs a very good tuning service in the twin cities area. He's helping me remote tune it since this car is so out their in terms of mods etc.
Had little victories , set timing had some 1k rpm runs . Chasing little fuel leaks , replaced my aem wideband with my lc1.

Discovered a amp draw from the alternator , 2 amps was killing my battery . New one on the way .

Been in a funk lately , not near productive enough . Thursday is my birthday and it always gets me down .

Also been refinishing my attached garage to be our home gym .

Picture of that table in the customers home , and of my pittbull just because she makes me happy . https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180418/c218918ec0939546861395629a3c1293.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180418/941c423e696811c994b48c4900ee0256.jpg

Geez hadn't realized it had been so long . Everything else has been distracted me from this . I started a new business, got all that setup , bank accounts , lawyer stuff , marketing and website etc.

Been fairly productive with that . Sent the injectors out for cleaning as I thought that was a issue . Finally installed them and the alternator last night .

Bought a new truck to better suit my needs and that of the business .

Also my gym membership went up drastically . So I said enough and took my one car gutted garage attached to the house and turned it into a very nice facility for me and the wife.

Our Doberman puppy is doing well . Getting to smart for her own good . https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180611/a8d6ed4a09e0bceb8c8de6954991f485.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180611/703ecf279aae01d6d78c4a3940022c98.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180611/6f1d4727e549b086b91994c6270cbf9a.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180611/96943faed91842ba210c3c915b5e17ab.jpg

Dobies and Pits are awesome dogs. Your Dachshund however... no thank you.

[nodoze]

That dachshund is a pretty dam good dog . I leash here in public but realistically wouldn't have to . She responds to every voice command . Doesn't cause trouble.

The Pitt is pretty amazing but doesn't like people coming into our house . Outside the house on a leash she loves people .

The Doberman is just dam smart and know where and how to get into everything . She also prances like a pony everywhere and we call her princess because she doesn't like to get dirty .

No real news , my aem has developed some issues and on August 18th I'm supposed to be having someone come help me troubleshoot . Maybe someday it will start . I'm really contemplating switching to megasquirt and get rid of the antiquated thing.
