Ok - took half a day off from work... ate some Indian food... took a nap and then worked on the car.
So, I got all the M66 slave cylinder assy, piping, etc. ordered today. Also picked up a new accel cable assy to replace the one I broke . Gave a ring to the machine shop and greased the skids ($$$) to get them moving on my parts. I must have called 8 numbers trying to get someone who can get me a custom Sachs setup. Anyone out there have any connections, PM me please!
I tied up some items in the engine bay and figured where I was going to run all the gauge wires through the firewall, etc. I've decided to put the front of the car back on for now. I wanted to keep it off while we got the engine, trans, IC mounted, etc. but I figure I can work around most of it if I am careful.
I got all my ATP parts figured out... almost. Word to the wise to anyone who gets a new turbo exhaust housing. Always check inside. I found some left over burrs from when the drilled and tapped the housing. That sucker would fall off and go right down the throat. I wish ATP would check things like this more carefully.
This is what the GT35R looks like with the .82 A/R housing and ATP's Ultimate Internal Wastegate setup. Notice how much wider the entire unit is compared to stock... thus I will need a custom 3" downpipe to be fabbed.
Here it is looking into that ATP UIWG assy.
I wish I still had that 16T laying around to do a side by side comparison
Got lots of work to do over a three day weekend. Stay tuned.
