To suit what bar?

[Miniman_alis]

after market fibre glass evo 3 bar to suit gsr\lancer

[mymidlifecrisis]

Not sure second hand- I know genuine was around the $800 for the set (quoted a coupla years back), or try evoparts.co.nz. Seem like good blokes to deal with.

[Miniman_alis]

Alrighty, so I've just ordered -
Manley 85.5mm 9:1 stroker pistons
Manley I beam rods with ARP 2000's
Manley 100mm forged crank with ACL race bearings
Gates racing timing belt
ARP head studs
Oem stubby shaft for balance shaft delete
Aeromotive 340Lph intank pump
Full gasket set
cometic 85.5mm head gasket

and just for some laughs I brought 4m x 3m of 3D carbon wrap

what is the best place to get a new oil pump from?

[jack be nimble]

Same place you got that all from.
Make sure the balance stubby shaft has a groove machined into the bearing. Im sure they are all fixed by now tho.

[jack be nimble]

I think the f/g front bar to suit gsr fenders requires a gsr reo

[Miniman_alis]

Same place you got that all from.
Make sure the balance stubby shaft has a groove machined into the bearing. Im sure they are all fixed by now tho.

I got the fuel pump, gasket set and head gasket good ol' eBay cause thedsmgraveyard didn't have didn't any of them.

The stubby shaft looked like it had the grove in it, if not ill get my engine builder to grove it.

Would anyone have a reo I can test fit?

[Miniman_alis]

I just got my carbon wrap so ill be wrapping the air vents, dash surround, centre console lid etc. Just to Gove it some accents. I wrapped my centre console lid and gear shift surround on my DC2 Integra and that makes it look so nice.

I've also got a parcel waiting for me at the post office that I will be picking up on Monday, hopefully its the fuel pump so I can put that all back together.

[RicKii``]

i recommend those black leather pieces with red stitching from ebay UK for centreconsole lid and shift boot. they are awesome quality! then the other bits you can wrap in carbon aswell

[Miniman_alis]

Can you link me to a centre console lid, I can't seem to find one. I was planning on getting a gear boot tho.

[RicKii``]

I ended up getting the shift boot, arm rest and handbrake cover. if you go the same way, ask for a discount, i think i got 15 or 20 bucks off

ah ricks old car nice pick up mate 

[Miniman_alis]

I just got the Aeromotive fuel pump so i will be putting up some pictures soon 

[Miniman_alis]

Alrighty so ill start with the fuel pump, pulled the old one out and pulled the assembly apart

 

.

 

made a little bit of an adjustment to the bottom holder part

 

.

 

and put the new pump in the holder like that just to see if i could get away with it.

 

.

 

well it was of course to fucking long and didn't sit all the way in the tank so i had to chop off that big piece that holds the top of the pump outlet and use a hose and clamps, then redrill the bottom holder screw hole and whhaallaa!

 

.

.

 

Lubly jubly all good fits right in the tank now.

[Miniman_alis]

 

ah ricks old car nice pick up mate 

Yeah this was a kiwi guy named Riki. Cool bloke he was.

 

Thanks to Rickii'' for the reo bar, this bloke wraps like a champion..

now i just need a new intercooler cause it gets in the way.

 

also found a pic from '06 that made me want one of these. does anyone know it?

[Miniman_alis]

So 6 weeks after i ordered my parts from Thedsmgraveyard they are finally sending them on Wednesday apparently.. 

Why it took them 6 weeks and many emails and chats at 12-1am in the morning to find out what was going on is beyond me...

[Miniman_alis]

end of 9 weeks later and ah thedsmgraveyard are still yet to send my order.. fuck

seriously the easiest thing i have ever done, even while i can harly move my right leg after hitting a car on my push bike.

[Miniman_alis]

So I got some new wheels
17x8+35
17x9+37
The 17x9 on the front


They poke a bit hah.


With the 17x8 on the rear


So since the 9 wide don't fit on the rear is it okay to run them on the fronts?

[Ian91]

Look pretty cool. Not sure if wider on the front will give you any issues? Maybe understeer?

Can you chuck them on the rear with some camber and the toe them in to try and even the wear abit?

[Miniman_alis]

I would think wider on the front would give more grip?

They hit on the trailing arm so I would have to run spacers and I don't want to do that
