LoL. Got the same Airguide for my 92 bumper.

Looks good with the new drop. Got the same wheels on my 88, though in gunmetal/ hyperblack. What part of Georgia? I'm in Lawrenceville. ps- never seen someone attempt to use the rain guards with the targa roof.

Big congrats dude.

I was waiting for someone to mention that. It looks like he might have taken the pic prior to installing the cap? I hope?

Sounds good so far. Good luck!

Ive never heard anyone say to NOT shim the pump, but i think i can be overshimmed. Ive also never heard of anyone completely tearing apart the pump, just taking the top cover Off and checking clearances as per the tsrm...and also a few guys have had their two gears moly coated To increase...

Either find an 89+ at the salvage yard, or better yet, have your own subframe reinforced. An 89+ can still crack.

Lol. Nice. But i'll keep it simple. Besides, i want to be able to go full power some times, as quietly as possible.. Even with the power penalty.

I bought a Borla for a rear unit, as it was reviewed as one of the quietest performance mufflers. It is a 3" to (2) 2.5" perforated tube design with stainless packing. I intend to also place a chambered Dynomax muffler at the mid position. I'm looking for a very quiet system, with a 3" cutout...

Sorry sorry sorry. When an old lady runs into the first car that passes by, when she picks up her car from her LAST accident...time for the DMV to consider taking her liscense away. If I were to get a new car, I really think I'd look at the Scion FR-S. Just sayin.

Nice. I'll have to try that polishing job.

Looks great. Scary how close your actual build is to mine, as far as parts choices are concerned. Dunno if I will rock the gold tape, though...

Finally picked up my block/ crank from the machine shop: Block- decked, linebored, honed: Crank, polished, and balanced with the rotating assembly. New squirter bolts: Also done, was a check/ resize of the rods, and the machinist ordered/ supplied the ARP mains, and all bearings as well...

Honestly, a lighter flywheel doesn't do a whole lot in my opinion. I have one in my 7mgte, and I had one on my 7nge. Didn't notice much change.

Very nice. Cant wait for the first start video.

If it were me, driving 95% of the time on the street, I would use a sprung hub disc. That shudder/clunk might be a warp in the flywheel, if it was overheated... OR it could be looseness in a drivetrain component, OR a bad ujoint/cv...OR a crack in the rear subframe...OR a bad rear spherical...

Leakdown or compression test after rebuild might not be too conclusive, if you have honed the cylinders and/ or replaced the rings. They need time to seat. PS- If I was only pushing 12psi or less on a stock turbo, I'd probably go with a composite hg and ARP's, especially if you suspect a less...

Did you check for coolant in the oil, or oil in the coolant?

LOL. Nice. PS- The black guy does make it in Armageddon.

I ALWAYS dab petroleum jelly on the opening of the fuel rail, rather than the injector O-ring. I've never once had an injector leak. Check for sharp edges around those openings, as Poodles suggests.
