worked a couples of hours on the rs-t today, re-done all the ground wire
Image

i completely removed the interrior to repaint it, and bought some GS SE seats,nice to have heated leather,plus i sooo like the sitting position of the first gen gs model.
the wire wont plug tho, the plugs are different, each one to be exact, not event the ''belt'' signal wire wont fit,i'll switch all the plug from the gs then

Image
Image
Image
Image

took the msd and tach adaptor out, and re-routed the wire through the fender,nice and invisible, now i have much more place for the piping
hell...
Image
Image

everything have been welded,taped,and covered,i really like the result,
pic tomorow tho

i putted back the car together, the wings hold only by 2 bolts and the bumper with 2 tiewrap,dont mind the imperfection, it havent washed since my last runs at the trac.

warning, carporn

some guy on monchar.com(frensh cardomain.com) decided to build his integra in a shop

had some 3-4k job done on his teg before he lost his job,the mechanic told him that untill he got the money he'll never see his teg again.

sold the mags for 120$ each,new in box,with the bill in it,he paid 172 before tax(my lucky day i guess)now i need tires tho, i have tons of 15'' but no 16''

turbo ordered this morning:P

for the first time, i did EVERYTHING myself this winter..
2007 was the MS, no way i'm toutching that,i'm colorblind :oops:
08,was my first turbokit,kinda choked-out
09,months and hours ,countless thing i learned, didin't cost me 1/3 of what i pay every spring, changed about everything in the car, tought the car would never start,no noise, no smoke,no nothing! it's like if i never stored it in the first place.i cant describe the feeling,but i slept like a baby that night

the car moved for the first time since october,
nothing happens in the vid, exept the joy and facination of seeing the car move after X hours of works.
Image

i'm also storing my buddy's del-sol, he was happy as a kid to take a ride too,dont mind him

ok, it's been a while,here a major update with tons of pics

my hood popped in my face at the track, ruined both the windshield, the top ,wings etc
it went over at 160-170,so no big chance of saving something.hood pins failure,horrible mess

here!, a in car video of what happened

Image



before
Image
after
Image
Image

Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

if you told me 2 weeks ago that my car would look like that,i'd probably would have jumped from the third floor

since 700 was way too much to repair my car i had to find another one, and i did find one, @ 700$
mx-3 gs 95,bleu mica,ATX, full options,no rust at all, 121 000 km, it was a deal,so,over with the drums, got my rear subframe with sway bar/rear disc,sunroof etc etc
it's been sitting in a garage backyard for 7 months, so it's kinda dirty

a huge thanks to all the help i had:P
here's the gs,
Image
Image
dont forget thet i'm keeping everything from my rs, suspention direction,cross member etc etc, rs to gs really IS a lot of job
Image
4 guy to get 1 engine off:P

1h to take the block off
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
the whole engine bay was brushed,and painted with gravelguard/flat black paint
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
pimp my ride ,mx-3 style
Image
Image
Image
Image

brakes were simply horrible, so i kept everything,wheel hub etc Image

Image
Image
horrible part, as i had to take the k08 away we used the same chain block that we used on the pic, one part is atached to the celling, and the other part is on wheel,so you can move it around easy,

problem/top gear top tips,do not EVER EVER lock the wheels on anything with that kind of chain block, as the wheel got stuck on the pickuptruck, the whole thing flipped over, and YES we almost got killed,we were 2 ppl standing on the pickup






Image
Image

it was scarry, nobody was hurt, and the only damage was a rear suspention for the pickup(suspention blade?) and my upper rad suport was fucked.luckily for us it wasent the whole pickup cab, or my widshield AGAIN

we put the thing up again and tested it with my friend's dad tractor:Pif it can hold 20 tons, maybe it's gonna be good enough for my bpt

Image
and it did pass the test

Image
my dump tube broke off due to poor weld/cheap material
Image
clutch bearring had to be taken off
Image

le fillage, it's horrible, it was a b6 96 obd2, with a megasquirt as piggyback,cutted/splitted from my car'wiring,installed in a 95 automatik gs
Image
real rat nest, like 18feet long

rear brakes were long dead, so i ahd everything in new to install
Image

BAD surprise, an alignement ajustement rod was bended, probably by someone who didin't knew how to tow a car
Image
i had sapres one, lucky me
began at 11-12, finished at 4 am,dead, with a bottle of wine
Image
after 15-16h, te simplest task was looking like a mountain, we searched everywhere for tools that were in our hands

were dead tired, so we slept in the car from 5 to 8 and started again

getting my bpt in the gs
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
there is a LOT of things that dosent fit, espetially the fucken heater rad's hoses

Image

now ebout everything is bolted back up, as some updates, i bought projectors so i dosen't kill myself when it's raining,and a mazdaspeed protege transmition, so my lsd is FINALLY on the way to the weld shop
Image
Image
Image
Image

now it'S in, i have some problems with the wiring, so i sent my ms/wiring to get torn apart ,so i can run the gs/rs being stand alone, lot less problems.once the car fires up, it needs an enlignement, and off i go with a new car, it's been a real headache, but we did about everything in 2 days

i'll update later
