Sorry guys-
I don't mean to be so slow with progress on my build.
I haven't had much time to do the sandblasting on parts over at my friend's house, but I'm almost done with that.
All the small parts have been done, like:
engine mounts, throttle body, ps and alt. mounts/adjusters
coolant pipes...
Can't make out the knock you speak of because the video is a constant massive rev.
However, if the knock wasn't present before the timing adjustment, then it's something you touched.
I suggest you check the cam gear bolts and tensioner bolt to verify they are indeed tight.
The ES kit does NOT have a replacement to the spherical bushing, I can gaurantee you that.
This is a new rear oem bushing:
And this is a new oem rear spherical bushing. Wanna make sure you're talking about the right part.
LOL!- I've also wondered about this- for YEARS!
89JDM7M- I see your parts list- brakes and flywheel- are you looking for front calipers and stock flywheel? I have these.
Fr. calipers were rebuilt 2yrs ago, and the flywheel looks fine(from a motor I bought.) LMK if these would help you. I'm...
Nice.
Don't feel bad- you have a running, painted car.
I've spent more than that already on suspension and engine parts alone, and it doesn't run, isn't painted yet, and still needs the interior done.
PS- Do you have a closeup pic of your turbo elbow installed?
Trade Lex AFM for a stock unit. You won't need either once you go with the MAFT Pro.
This would be a good start, though with the intake you have(no vac lines connected, and an improper PCV routing), you'll probably still have a few
driveability issues to iron out.
PS- Can't tell from the engine...
