Tuesday, March 03, 2009 11:15 PM
just a little project that wanted to share with you guys from panama, i could say im the first here working on this type of car .. since all of the people that race here use japanese, korean or muscle cars.

This is how i found it



first thing that was change were the head lights
Then ... from this ...




it ended like this .... with the side mirror that was missing.. lol











Some of the upcomming mods ...

right know i just have installed: forged pistons (wiseco) low comp and eagle rods, intake, header and 2 1/4 exhaust pipe
And they are some other things that i need to work on as well .. like rear brake system , suspension and some other engine mods

comments or suggestions are appreciated
Thanks

the beginning.




mounting intercooler and some pipes














21/4 header to cat back down


very ugly , i know i have to do some cleaning and painting on the engine bay


turbo manifold and tsudo header


umm jummy !




lol this one is not me .. is my mechanic helping me .. i had to rotate the housing of the turbo to get in in the right possition to fit the pipes


standard wastage position and new position where my finger is



turbo in place but firewall was too tied.. so i had to push it a little bit


problems here , exhaust flange going directly to firewall .. i will have to rotate it as well


so a moved on







ended up there for now , missing some 2 to 2.5 couplers , so moved on and did something different


ive rotated the exhaust flange already .. here it is

here is how it looks like now


nice!!
now i went and start removing some things in order to take the oil pan down


oilpan down





oil line from oilpan to turbo, return line


bov




2.5 dynomax muffler and down pipe




connecting now some vacuum lines



watter tank relocation




watter lines to turbo


distributor block for positives and negatives wires




got the new coupler and continued with pipes




bonus pic of how it looks like so far


more pics as the progress goes .. thanks for watching .. comments and suggestions welcome

Congrats on getting it all hooked up. I assume your staying safe with under 7lbs of boost right?

no, no problem i understand and i appreciate your suggestion .. about stock . i have already change injectors to 450CC , pistons to wiseco forged pistons lowering comp and bored to .20 along with eagle rods .. i think tat should handle the 12lbs just fine right ?

thanks
