GD Funk32's 04 STi race car Build V-Mount,TS EFR7163

well a productive day, was able to install the dry sump pan and install the motor mounts. The longest part of the day was installing the cams and checking lashing, not hard just takes time, I was able to set 3/4 right on the dot but 1 cam is completely out, well 3/4 buckets are out and will need to reorder new shims for it (I had already checked and ordered the correct shims but since I had a replacement cam I am guessing that f'd it up)

Today was a good day, was able to clean all the buckets and cams, reinstall them and lube them all up. Then installed the valve covers, I added IAG's billet 1/2 moon cam seals. everything looks nice and ready.

Today was motor install day. For the most part things went easy and straight forward, there were a few fitment issues with the TSSFAB front frame while using a A.R.E Dry sump pan. With the few quick correction things came together.

[funk32]

I attacked the rear diff, extremely hard to do by yourself with a busted elbow and coming down with the cold (I know cry cry cry lol) and I took some pictures of the MSI rear t-brace delete as people have asked me what it looks like and how it installs.


still lots to get done back here and clean it up, including that rusted fuel filler neck.

Today I was able to get the car back on all 4 and damn I miss seeing the car on its wheels LOL, Not too much left to get her up, need to finish off the dry sump (ordered this week) Brake pads (ordering next week) and a bit of welding (aluminium,steel,titanium). After all that hope to god I didnt screw anything up and double/triple check things and fire it up. Sounds so Simple haha FML

Thats a damn sexy wheel/brake/canard/splitter/stance/paint picture.

 

[HolyCrapItsFast]

I'm very impressed so far... and a little jealous!

I like the Canards. Well I like it all really, but canards is something on my list of things to do but I haven't really found any that strike me. These are not bad.

 

[funk32]

Thanks, ya they work but I think I want to use them as a mould and make something CF to make them lighter.
