Thanks man. Sadly, this set will probably never see the streets of ontario now. I just got a job in edmonton and now I don't have anytime to finish it. Anyone know any good tuning shops in edmonton? On a second note my dd just got a new clutch and flywheel as well as a six speed swap I will have to find time to do in the next couple days along with my new 2bennett coilovers

I should be able to scoop some pics tomorrow if I remember. I will also try and upload them but it might be interesting as my laptop is dead. It fell off the desk. Motor is still apart kinda but together. They are doing one last piston and valve check and if all goes well the pistons will be sent out to be coated. Tonight I pretty much stripped my engine bay. The only things that are left is the wiring and some stuff on the firewall but abs and hicas have been pretty much stripped. just need the throw the hicas lock out bar in. I'm just prepping it for paint slash stitch welding. Fenders are pulled as well. It was a lot harder than wat it seems as one bolt broke behind the door so I had to carefully drill it out and retap it. A few other screws were also stripped which made it a pain in ass.Last edited by 4jo3; 03-12-2011, 02:33 AM.

That car looks familiar. Is that the one that was at oni-jdm? if it is I think I know the specs lol. As for an update. I started stripping out a bunch of stuff getting ready to paint and maybe stitch weld the front end. (Still up in the air). I will take some before and after pics. I kinda forgot to take some before so I will take some during lol. I don't have a computer right now so it will be hard to upload pics. On a side note. My fuel setup has been ordered and will hopefully be here in two weeks. Also the guy that mills my pistons is back from vacation. So things are moving, slowly but atleast they are moving.
My fuel components ordered:
Two bosch 044 pumps
Fuel lab 56504 fuel pressure regulator with pressure gauge
Fuel lab filter with check valves and 5" stainless steel 40micron element with -10AN in and out
I'm just hoping my car will be a monster on the track/street. I daily drive an s4 in the summer that's around 450-500hp at the crank and its a weapon. There's not much around that can keep up and I want that car to look slow lol

I really don't have many pics right now... all the parts are at the engine shop. Whenever I'm up there I can get a few pics. I'm trying to get my fuel system ordered so I can get my parts and drop it off and do that all in one trip as it is 2 hours away. I think the motor will still be in pieces because the guy who mills out the pistons for clearance went on vacation and I don't know when he is back. So I can snap some pics then. If she is together, I will still snap some pics but I'm not ripping it apart. Also my camera died a while back and my phone was full, so that's why no pics.

Ya the build is moving ... but hopefully it will speed up more. There is quite a bit of work to do on it. I think I may grab a case of beer and go to it tomorrow. Lol. If i can remember I will take a few pics of the crank. Although its already installed. My motor is 2 hrs away so I don't get up much. I will be going up in 2 or 3 weeks from now as I will have to drop off parts. I'm just trying to get everything ordered so I only have to make one trip. I am placing an order any day now as I'm now doing a fuel system. I just bought the extension from RIPS. My buddy is welding it on for me. The extension looks great. Rob's welding is top notch. So is my buddy's welding, he spent a while on the mill and the extension fits perfect.
As for the fuel pump, I understand its not ideal but I know the condition of it. Its low mileage and a few years old versus my stock fuel pump as I don't know the exact mileage on it as it looks like it was replaced at some point in its life. I only say that because the blots didn't match up when I replaced it with my nismo. And the everything else appears to be stock as the wiring was in good condition. Heck maybe it was just the sock that was replaced. I just don't know. It's nice to have piece of mind if you know what I mean.Last edited by 4jo3; 02-28-2011, 11:01 PM.
